High and Low: 2 more platinum solo attempts, 2 more wave 10 wipes. I just can't seem to get the final objective done. Playing plat has made me realize just how much I hate the Geth, especially hunters and primes. 

I m at the same point now. I switched to arc pistol and hunter a less of a problem now

 

 

It could reasonably be suggested that the discussion of which classes are boring or not deserves to be given a home in its own thread, ideally before it swamps this one, or gets it locked.

If this thread is not derailled a bit... Mods dont care anymore

Yeah, but there are only a couple of threads like this one, whereas there are hundreds that are purely for argument and kitten gifs

Grenade focussed tech combo:http://kalence.drupa...5!34O53364!D0EE
This build uses a weapon with incendiary ammo and focuses on using sabotage's Tech Vulnerabilty spec to detonate fire explosions (or tech bursts, if you use disruptor ammo) from cloak while remaining undetected because of bonus power, the one I posted is designed for single armored targets, but you can build a mook killing spawn nuke setup by simply changing some parameters on the grenade spec, as such

Sorry marksmad, one more

QMR, could U explain your attacking routine on this one again ? Cause if U TB with sabotage and grenade, u loose the ammo self detonation of stickies, or not ? Then there s the time u have to wait after casting sabotage to actually prime (2sec ?)

[GruntKitterhand]

Highlights:  3 URs in a 500k spending spree - Venom VII, Spitfire IX and X.  Only 11 needed now, 4 weapons total to max.  I'm beginning to taste it.

 

Also, I've played enough with Clips7 to know that the Smashguard with Lancer must be fun to play, so I gave him a run.  I discovered in one moment of panic that his melee is quite hilarious, so I'm already thinking of re-speccing for a melee build, but otherwise it was great as it was, with no points needed in Lash.

 

Lowpoint:  Wiping on Condor in what had descended into a duo with oldblank, who I don't think posts here but is very experienced. Let's just say there was a lot of typical Condor BS.

 

Inbetweenpoint:  Failing personally to extract from a Rio Collectors game which was genuinely pretty epic - centre hack, EZ hack and full map pizzas, no gels left by wave 7, squadmates "making the most of" possessed a-bombs (including my own melee-happy KroSol), you get the idea.  Good squad, I recognised at least one of the names from here, from way back.  Just made me wish Collectors weren't such a pain most of the time on PS3.

I'm not necessarily going for sabotage's own tech burst with this build (although it is a nice bonus that does happen if the target survives the initial fire explosion and requires more grenades).

Attack pattern varies with the range of the target and weapon being used. At longer ranges with that particular combination, I will open with Claymoar, reload hide with the grenades then cloak and sabotage/shoot (the order depends upon whether using a single shot weapon or no, if so, shoot and use sabotage as another reload hide, otherwise sabotage first to make the most of the cloak damage window) while they are in transit. Shorter ranges, you cloak and sabotage before shooting/grenades to not risk the grenades falling out of the damage window.

The most important thing is that you are in cloak when the grenades go off, otherwise you lose a nice chunk of damage.

With the hybrid build (where I use sniper damage at rank 6 instead of bonus power) I use the Kishock specifically because it can be fired from cloak without breaking, enabling you to follow with grenades and finally sabotage without falling out of the damage window.

^Nice routines. I was unaware that U had to be in cloak when the nade goes off to get the damage bonus, thx.

[Quarian Master Race]

^Nice routines. I was unaware that U had to be in cloak when the nade goes off to get the damage bonus, thx.

to be clear, you don't, but you do have to have to at least be within 1.5 seconds of decloaking like anything else. This means that if you cloak>sabotage>shoot then grenade, you will often be out of the damage window before the grenades go off unless you are very close to the target, so leading with them then cloaking while they are in transit will maximize burst damage.

Highlight playing a Gold Reaper game with the Krolord and not getting sync'ed once

 

Lowlight everybody else got sync'ed at least twice which led to over 75 kills with the PPR and 50 Melee kills

 

many husks were headbutted

[Alfonsedode]

low point : failed another wave 10 escort on a plat solo

high point : had a full plat duo with a pug on goddess geth. Volodinotte  s now a friend we made it out

[stephenw32768]

Low 1: disastrous bleed-out on White Hazard/Cerberus/Gold. Totally swamped by Dragoons and Phantoms that I couldn't see.

 

Low 2: U/U/G gave us Ghost/Collectors.  I was actually doing alright until the hard freeze ruined everything.

 

Low 3: I seem to mess up the extraction waves more often than I get them right.  (Headcanon: Mel'Kayviem is never left behind.  The shuttle always waits for her.  Because she's awesome).

 

High: all the rest of the Gold games were pretty good, and I got some decent sniper practice with the Valiant and Widow.  Cerberus is the most satisfying faction with the Widow; so many turrets to shoot from engineers' backs, so many Phantoms in cover to relieve of their heads :-)

[Ashevajak]

High point: myself and the host double-charged a Prime on Goddess so hard, it went flying back a good 15 metres, and nearly fell off the map.

 

Low point: invisible Phantoms.  Not cloaked, actually invisible.  It's like that Fear Demon from DA:I decided to take over my game.  F*ck spiders, that **** is nightmare inducing.

[Best VolusSupport NA]

Highlight: Killing almost everything in wave 1 before any pugs could get any kills or assist.

[FairfaxGal]

High: after unlocking the Juggernaut the other day and failing badly with him in the one game I did play, last night I had a few games with a friend learning how to use him in Silver. And finding him pretty fun, especially with the Geth Pulse Rifle. Now I need to get better at placing/using the shield or respec out of it.  

 

High: getting comfortable enough with the Kroguard to take him into gold and (mostly) not screwing up too badly. And having lots of fun charging all the things. Currently using the Disciple with him but will probably try a different shotgun once I reach the 200K points with him.

 

Low: Getting sync-killed 3 times in one game, possibly 3 waves in a row, with the aforementioned Kroguard. 2 Banshees and a Brute. The worst being the last because I missed almost all of wave 8 or 9 after charging at a Marauder but hitting the Banshee behind him instead.

[Dunmer of Redoran]

Hosted a PUG. Wanted to play Human Engineer. Game locked up and wouldn't let me use my gun or my missiles. Quit on wave 1.

[JGDD]

High: Playing several games with TheNightSlasher and a few other friends.

 

Low: Getting locked in the reactor by TheNightSlasher during an escort.

 

SUPER HIGH: Popping an OPS pack and surviving the bbq thereby denying TheNightSlasher a double friendly kill. 

[Mordokai]

High: Played a couple of Gold games with QMR, LaughingBanana and Clips7. We wrecked some serious **** together... or rather, they did, while I was eating their dirt

 

Low: switched to Platinum and the PS3 decided to troll us with low frames, lag and everything, till QMR and LB dropped. Clips heroically carried my scrubby ass until wave seven, where we finally wiped. Shout out to you my man... great work and you might have succeeded if it weren't for that milestone around your neck, aka, me

 

High: Clips and me played another game, me as ACA, him is smashguard. We were joined by Valkyrie and many biotic booms were had.

[JohnBorrows]

High..Valsharess24 cooked me in reactor during the escort 

[Smehur]

Low: Had 3 (three) Puggernauts join my UUG today. Seemed a fun prospect at first, but they ended up dying every 10 seconds on a whole-game-average.

 

High: Got my Katana mastery (for the first time in 1700+ hours) with a surprisingly satisfying (or not-so-satisfyingly-surprising? hmmm...) silver headshot medal, and a not-as-satisfying-as-I-remember-them silver revive medal.

[TheNightSlasher]

Highlights: A string of enjoyable platinum games with Smehur, AW_FC, Caerdon and TheShadyEngineer. Lot's of biotic and tech booms, random cursing over team speak etc.

 

Low point: Three out of four games were Cerberus. F*CK YOU RNG....Thank goodness for the one geth game.

(High point among the low point) - I didn't rage against cerberus..definitely a first in a LONG time.

 

And here's something TechnoTurian would be proud of:

Unfortunately, AW_FC got dc'ed during this game prematurely ending our plat session.

[Marksmad is waving goodbye]

Highlight: Aetika did not succed in locking me in the reactor

 

Low point: I did not succeed in locking her in the reactor

it's... it's beautiful...

[JRandall0308]

Highlight: Spent an entire Wave of Platinum Giant vs. Collectors just running around and around the central pillar in the control room, with ark171 and RustyBuckets02. In Rusty's words, "Where do all these Praetorians keep coming from?" They were literally appearing out of thin air as they all spawned there.

 

Lowlight: I had to leave that match on Wave 7-ish. Hope ark and Rusty were able to complete it.

[Marksmad is waving goodbye]

RustyBuckets02.

Reported.

[JRandall0308]

Reported.

 

Highlight: played ME3 instead of DAI.

 

Lowlight: was ignored by marksmad despite the THREE invites I sent to him over the course of the day.

I lost connection but rejoined Rusty as soon as I could

 

Highlight: I got a 25 Headshot Medal (the 20 from before plus 5 from the final waves after I rejoined - it started the medal count over again and awarded me both lol)

 

Lowlight: Aside from you having to go and me getting DC'd, was there one? I don't know...
