[Best VolusSupport NA]

Highlight:

I played the turian, now what...

 

Lowpoint:

I died.

[muy_thaiguy]

Here's a low point. It seems I have hit that glitch where I get everything but new weapons/upgrades for weapons, despite buying quite a few Arsenal packs. Most of my ultra rares are still level 1, and I still haven't gotten the Typhoon. Meanwhile, I'll join a match and some new guy already has the Typhoon.

 

BIOWARE! YOUR STORE IS BROKEN!

[HamleticTortoise]

Low: landed for the Nth time in a Giant/Reapers/Gold game, with overmatched pugs

 

High: for the first time, managed to carry multiple later waves (6 to 9 actually); maybe landing on giant was a highpoint?

 

High: by wave 8 one of the pugs actually got the idea of moving around the map, and started following me!

 

High: 3 out of 4 extracted; even though I ended up carrying newbies, I felt good about actually managing it! Spend them ducats wisely now guys, and heed the lessons you learned today!

[JRandall0308]

Low: chumping it up as the Asari Adept with Widow, vs. Cerberus on White, courtesy of the Randomizer. This seemed like it would be a good setup: Stasis, then headshot. But apparently my combination of skills and gear wouldn't allow me to OSK anything above an Assault Trooper (on Gold), and I can't reload cancel to save my life, so it was very slow going.

 

High: then Brann1gan and Drake arrived to bail me out.

 

High: played a variety of games with them including our all-Geth team vs... Geth... on Rio. Actually I'm not sure that's a highlight.

[Quarian Master Race]

Highlight: Pugged into and had 3 glorious quarian duos with 3 of ranylyn's quarians, all of them dashing and lovely ladies/gentlemen.

Low: Phaeston on a non accuracy boosting kit on frelling ghost hazard is goddamn irritating. My soup was well and truly rustled. Still wrestled 20 headshots out of it by wave 10, but wtf turians get your shite straight.

[grailseeker91]

Highlight: got to show some PUGs the female quarians do not suck it just takes practice (or button spamming in some cases) to make them work in several smooth games.

 

Low point: had a PUG on a wave 10 targets that concussive shot a grunt into the path of a rocket 3 different times resulting in a wipe as the praetorians showed their appreciation by quick syncs. Little snot (high pitched voice) even had the gall to throw a tantrum about the rest of us being killstealing whores because he couldn't kill anything with his concussive shot spam and how we should should be ashamed of our choice to "throw the game". 

 

Was tempted to mute but it was kind of funny.

[Miniditka77]

Low:  Readied up in an U/U/G lobby with 3 questionable looking PUGs, one of which was a Juggernaut and another of which was a Volus Adept.  Aaaand.... yes, the Volus Adept did almost nothing but spam Shield Boost and Stasis (totaled about 20k points through 10 waves), while the Jugg did a LOT of meleeing.  The 4th PUG bailed by Wave 3 and nobody ever joined to replace him.

 

High:  It was against Cerberus, so the Stasis spamming and meleeing by the Jugg meant that I never really had to worry about Phantoms.  The Jugg ended up firing a decent number of Siege Pulses too.  The game actually went fairly smoothly until I ran around the corner into a surprise Phantom after we got the Wave 10 credits.  Way better than I expected.

[Salarian Master Race]

Low:  Venom Melee KroSol landed in Giant/Reapers/Gold with a TGI who didn't help with objectives.

 

Low:  One of the pugs wasted 3 missiles trying to shoot a Banshee that was literally 5 feet in front of him, instead of shooting the floor.

 

High:  I took my turn ignoring the Wave 10 Hack objective, leaving the Scorewhoring TGI to finish it himself after the two derps went down.

 

High:  Wave 11 his missiles came out, I matched them.  After extraction, I had around 50k more points than he did.

 

High:  Harrier TGI got schooled by a melee Krogan.

 

High:  I text chatted at him YAYAYA FOR TUCHANKA and then left the building

 

High:  Post #420

 

[JRandall0308]

Low: Randomizer gave me Condor Cerberus.

High: RustyBuckets02 arrived to help out. He was Talon Volus Mercenary, I was BPP Quarian Female Engineer. Then a Geth Engineer arrived so we had tons of pets!

High: next game, Giant vs. Geth. Rusty as Exectioner Vorcha Hunter, me as Incisor Salarian Infiltrator.

Low: neither of us managed a personal 10 Waves Survived.

High: Incisor is not as bad as I thought.

 Talon Volus Mercenary

This phrase gave me a vision of a Volus alternately spamming Cain Mines and Shield Boost

 

Biovar, pls.

Cain Mines that when they explode also give a shield boost to nearby allies!

Now that you say it, it's obvious that's the best possible combination

[JRandall0308]

High: Platinum game with N7Lady (Batarian Brawler Vanguard) and her friend CherriesBravo (Geth Trooper Soldier). I played the good old Turian Sentinel. We faced Cerberus on Reactor Hazard.

 

We were joined by a PUG Geth Juggernaut with the Crusader II, but he actually knew what he was doing. He used Siege Pulse to set off fire explosions (everyone was using Incendiary Ammo because we like cheese) and to ragdoll Phantoms. Proof that Puggernauts can be useful when they play smart. Actually I suspect the guy was on an alternate account, because he was way too experienced for his manifest and N7 rating.

 

The game was pretty smooth until the Wave 10 Hack near the LZ. We got overrun by Banshees and Phantoms, and I got shanked, but fortunately by then the hack was almost complete so the other three were able to clean up the wave.

 

Low: next game, Platinum Reapers on Goddess. Unfortunately our Puggernaut left and was replaced by a Human Adept, which would have been a good combo with my Asari Justicar Adept if he didn’t spend the entire match running away from me. ??? So he was dead most of the time instead of contributing Biotic Explosions.

 

There was a massive lag spike on Wave 3 that led to N7Lady’s death by Banshee, but Cherries and I were able to finish the Wave. However then the lag set in and I was experiencing a full second delay at times. Made it hard to dodge Banshee Warps!

 

Anyway we wiped on Wave 7. Oh well.

[Dragonous]

Lowlight: Remembered how much I suck with the Vorchaneer in a Collectors/Rio/Gold game.

 

Lowlight: Another UR that wasn't the Valiant.

 

Highestlight: Played a few games with someone who recognized me.

 

Lowlight: Don't have any mods to type via console or a working mic, so I had to settle for repeatedly meleeing them in the face.

[WardenCdrNara]

Lowlight: A couple of crappy games trying to learn to play some newer characters (combined with some really awful luck getting flanked and the like, as per usual)

 

Highlight: Outscoring a TGI with my Tempest-weilding FQE. (still outshined by TheShadyEngineer, but that's expected by this point, tbh), and got to wreck Rio on one of my favorite characters.

...was that it?

[JRandall0308]

Low: Randomizer gave me the Spitfire/Krysae N7 Destroyer vs. Collectors on Reactor Hazard, and N7Lady the Shuriken Krogan Shaman Adept. Well at least the Destroyer doesn't care about cooldown and the KroDept doesn't so much care about his weapon! 

 

But this was a painful match. I foolishly put Cryo Ammo on the Spitfire (instead of, oh I don't know, AP!) and it took freakin' forever to kill Scions and Praetorians. However N7Lady was able to get plentiful Biotic Explosions which somewhat made up for my Destroyer's ineptititude.

 

High: We gathered up CherriesBravo and started a (non-random) Platinum match vs. Reapers on Vancouver. Both N7Lady and Cherries were Juggernauts, I was the Harrier Asari Huntress, and we were joined by an Asari Adept whose Stasis was key in locking down Phantoms later on.

 

The Wave 6 Hack up on the platform out in the open was annoying, but we missiled our way through it. Wave 10 Devices wasn't too tough -- the other Asari protected me with missiles while I cloaked and did the devices.

 

I need to play Platinum more often. It's fun.

[ark]

High: pugged some plat, the e-peenometer board at the end of the rounds told me my e-peen was massive

 

Low: pugged some plat, my e-peen was to big. Can it be to big? Prob not, but 37 min reactor rippas is a bit to long for my taste. Unless it`s a solo, this was only about a 25% solo.

 

 

 

High: post #100. time to retire.

[Marksmad is waving goodbye]

Low: London Reapers with lag so bad that Brutes would suddenly jump out of the line of fire. Wave 10 was targets and I had the 4th Shee near me...pulled the launcher...fired at her feet...nothing! "Dammit, it's a dud because of the lag, better get some distance!", I think,  run up the ramp, as I get to the top, BOOM..."Targets down, nice work!"  It was like a Cobra with a 3-second delayed action fuse.

 

High: The CP system awarded me 11 waves completed for that game...I guess it's not immune to lag either

[Dragonous]

Highlight: Waltzed into another all-Geth game on Collectors/Rio/Platinum...

 

Lowlight: ...Except I was a Quarian M Infiltrator.

 

Lowlight: Another crappy UR weapon upgrade. The RNG gods are clearly toying with me.

 

Highlight: The Talon TSol is as good as ever.

 

Lowlight: The newbie Krolord on our team (didn't see his CP but he only had the Disciple 1 and no gear) got sync killed no less than three times, and nearly got sync killed another four times if not for missile intervention.

[Bud Halen]

High:  Got pinged by hat full of nat when I was about ready to pack it in for the night.  Damn right I'll join.  He was preset to Plat but downgraded to Gold like a helpful lad, likely when he saw my 'not awesome' CP tally of 18,000.  His quick assassin cricket resulted in gobs of yummy carrion...filling the landscape of Condor.

 

High:  nat had his mic on, and I got to hear his sensual vocal stylings (*sploosh*)

 

Low:  Was now after midnight for me, and my work-a-day arse was calling me to bed.  Could only manage one mission.  Was then apparent to me that I'm not a real man.

 

Low:  Kept missing with my Justicar's warp bubble for BEs.  Thought I was funneling them right where I wanted them...then nothin'.  I'm no scorewhore but was still hoping i could break 100k -- compared to nat's 160k.  Inefficiencies resulted in falling just short with 95k.  Fail.

 

 

High/Low:  Just came from a missile glitching lobby when nat messaged.  Never happened to me before...was a bit more enjoyable than i thought it would be.  Then again Glacier Hazard has a way of making things interesting on its own.  Always figured it would be way more painfully boring.  Suppose I was just intrigued by the novelty of it all...and clearing Plat missions in ~10 mins.  But it was wearing thin, and I was more than happy to bail when called upon.  Kinda interesting/amusing.  Kinda lame.  Not an attractive regular, constant occurrence.

[GruntKitterhand]

Highlight:  Pugged into a solid lobby playing Reapers on Gold as a Graal-wielding Kroguard, complete with a missile-hiding Smashguard host whose name I didn't recognise from here.  Great games on Ghost, Giant and Dagger (against Cerberus), when I switched to a BatSol / Raider.  The last game was notable because we were joined by LEXISLUCCI, who kinda bullied a low level pug out of the lobby and we proceeded as a trio.  In fairness, the pug was taking forever to ready-up, so I was relieved when he just left.  The game was pretty smooth, with LEX wide awake, occasionally grumbling and scoring pretty heavily with his BatGuard / Hornet.  He even praised/thanked us for the good game at the end.

 

Lowlight:  QMR's game was full by the time I got clear of Dagger, so I took the sensible option of going to bed.

Did you try to join? Apologies, I invited you, then inadvertently completed a whole solo and reset the lobby to public for the next game in the time it must have taken you to accept them XD.
