Low: Got rekt recently as the N7 Shadow unfortunately, learnt I couldn't be as aggressive as I could with the GI at least with no cyclonics modulators, that something I need to work on.

Low: I just had a sucky shadow match too. Had duration and bonus power on cloak, but every single tc>ss resulted in being meleed or shot in the face or downed before the animation finished. As host as well. So 90% of that match was spent hugging the floor, but still high scored until wave 6 where the match ended abruptly with deaths.

Same, I often TC'd + SS'd myself into bad positions, where it would've been wiser to shoot with my gun instead from a distance.

This just sounds like tac cloak in general. I find it almost never works as it should. I stare at them staring right at my invisible soon to be corpse very often.

Low:  The trick or treaters are starting to arrive....damn you halloween...No ME3 MP for me 2nite.  Maybe to scare myself later after they stop..I will do a Shuriken Gold solo.

Sounds like a pretty obnoxious treat. You really are a horrible man

How dare you lol jk, to me halloween always takes priority on my watch, even if a banshee is wrecking my face the moment I drop my controller, I will gladly give them candy to these trick or treaters at my door, even at the cost of mission failure if it came down to it

Are you breaking LOS before activating TC?

[Operator m1]

Host lobby for gold cerberus, firebase ghost as my QFI sniper with the valiant.

 

Lone wolf banner person joins up as fury with hurrdurricane, and consumables.

 

He readies up.

 

Assumed he was ready for it, so I ready up.

 

Figure we'd pass the time two manning early cerberus waves til more people pop in.

 

Mr lone wolf goes down 4 times in first two waves, me saving him the first 3 times, and gets stomped at the end of the second. They leave.

Truth be told, I'm fairly sure AI vs cloak is rigged so wrongly.

 

The moment you cloak, atlas fires a missile at you. Not your teammates.

 

The moment you cloak, phantom suddenly starts palm-blastering you with perfect accuracy when you're strafing while cloaked.

 

I get the cloak shouldn't be the 'I win' button it was in ME2, but could it actually be something more than a glorified damage steroid please?! Could it have some semblance of... you know... fking working?!

 

Rant over.

LOW:   Trick or treaters took all of the candy I bought.. Normally, I buy a stupid amount of candy expecting to have a huge over-flow after they stop coming..cuz you know, for myself..?......Damn-it....they took it all...greedy kids.. ( which used to be me)  MOAR CANDY>>>!!!!!..I have nothing left...

 

HIGH:  As a Halloween scare tactic towards myself in this game.. I did a Destroyer-Shuriken Gold Solo vs Cerberus.. DONT ANY ON YOU EVER TRY THAT.. It sucks.. I sucked..plus it really sucked.

I can confirm it does work, although just not as simple as it was in ME2. Also not bothered to really record myself on terrible 144p quality dropping aggro with TC.

 

This thread by cyonan explains the aggro mechanics in relation with tactical cloak.

 

Basically enemies in this game, is like going against an AI who once played a CoD game and soundwhores your footsteps regardless if it can't see you.

on host i seldom get this problem,only off-host laggy game

i did use him on gold reaper, cerberus solo.
i recommend you do it when enemy not directly facing you. not face to face eye to eye direction

because face to face, your teleport path is along his even they blind shoot direction

so if they even notice , they melee/ shoot in wrong direction

but usually cloak and SS , cloak already mislead their target for around 3 secs something.

 

i sure you know how to build your character . like SS affect by both melee and power these sort of thing .

i recommend SS with full damage bonus , not something like DR, speed bonus. as long as you can 1HKO phantom on gold(without relying DoT)

otherwise just don't SS . SS is not how you hit enemy. it is about how you hit and you can run away after killing

so make sure the position after you SS,  no other guys  surround you.

 

i put both SS and ES with full points

some people tell you ES suck is because they don't know what is  AoE

2 full cloak cycle+ power amp4 is able to kill 3 mobs behind wall

while same cycle 2 full cloak SS only kill 2 . and you must be able to lock them

even you can't kill 3 , you damage 3 mobs . this mean you still have assist score

nothing is safer than spam power behind wall.

it is not fast. but faster than you need to run around the wall to shoot.

 

make use of SS , ES and your gun. 3 of them together is how to play shadow .

I would disagree on that part, that's your own philosophy on how to play the shadow.

 

The real reason why some people would say ES sucks is not because they probably don't know what AoE is but rather it's setup animation time, to some people they'd rather not watch the animation over and over and the fact it leaves you vulnerable during the animation and forced to use it behind walls in order to make the best use of ES instead of using ES out in the open and ending up dead half way through the animation, is why I prefer not to spec into ES because I don't find ESing through walls all that appealing in my opinion.

Low: Tried to play melee QFE vs geth. It was the worst, most insanely irritating game I've ever played despite the 50 melee medal. I stumbled from stunlocks to missed backhands due to motherfucking geth and their shite tier melee tracking bullshit.

High: Preset geth with QME Arc pistol next game and nuked them back to toaster hell in response. 6 missiles/ TCPs, a million grenades and 18 min later I claimed 50 kills with both weapon and tech, and blew up at least 20 stupid flashlight faces. That'll teach you not to rebel against your rightful masters, you goddamn glorified roombas.

[XAN]

High: killed 3 dragons in one shot with Javelin QFI on Reactor/Collector/Plat.

 

Low: I haven't received hate mail so far in my ME3 carrier, even though I ran into Ninjarevolution2 several times. I hope I'll run into FRANTICWRATH one day.

of course that is my personal opinion. my own philosophy .

the fact is this work on gold and even solo for me

you can also make your n7 shadow using sniper gun and never spec cloak too

we are talking about is it fun and effective.

 

ES is a crowd control power .

i do mention about ES is not fast. but it work faster than SS when kill mobs. 

you can't argue the fact that 2 cloak cycle kill 3 > kill 2 mobs

and basically ES do more than 2000 damage with all power amp 4(i forget the formula. i do the math in the past )

fast or slow .it all depends . 

walking toward enemy , routing though wall by wall and hit 1 enemy is also extremely slow(eg firebase white, glacier )

appealing or not is your personal choice . nothing need to agree or disagree.

you think i am coward, but i definitely get more score  than pure SS

 

SS is situational single target ability.  (yes everything is situational . someone must say this)

the problem is not how much damage you do to kill 1 target .not mention overkill is a waste of ability

it is about how to escape after you kill the target.

shadow strike mean kill in shadow. disappearing in shadow

it means you need to

1 .find the one that is alone or two, like they are camping.

2 .they rush toward you 1 by 1 (2 to 3 enemies may be fine. just make use of your gun after SS)

 

but 

1 you can't use this power when you face group of enemy at spawn( sure you can do it, and end up lay on the ground)

2 you can't use it on sync-kill boss that target you.

(you can use it when other teammate are target , make use of your teammate , sell them out that is team work )

3.you can't do it at altas

4.you can't use it on ravage (on host may be fine , but they can pop all swarmer at the same time  = instant lay down)

etc....

 

don't get me wrong i am not comparing SS and ES. they have different usage

but i think getting both are better than 1

the same apply to biotic hammer and electric hammer

people always say coward control power suck single target power is all you need

why not get both?

 

PS sorry if you find my tongue offensive, not my purpose . 

anyway you can have your own style to play . pure SS ,pure ES , hybrid  mix 

my opinion use 3 of them together can achieve the best result  for all kinds of enemy

[Petiertje]

High: That one time i took out the Javelin for the first time,and got 3 cerberus troopers with the very first shot with it. (only managed to do that again with guardians because they are a bit slower then the rest  )

 

Low: Rage quitting after the 2343295874275948037439128047th time the Geth frustrate me again.

Lol it's the way you worded it look, like it was saying it was the true defining way, instead of saying "This is how I play the shadow" that was what was misleading in your other post.

 

I'm not gonna bash on ES, if it works for you, more power to you.

Don't most people at least skip rank six passives to put three ranks into electric slash?

[Salarian Master Race]

Don't most people at least skip rank six passives to put three ranks into electric slash?

 

I think that is what I did, but I specced her as a Melee-centric build so that Rank 6 Passive was useless to me.

[Best VolusSupport NA]

Don't most people skip rank six passives to put three ranks into electric slash?

It used to be most people would've skipped fitness rank 6 because fire and electric sword don't apply to shadow strike and spent the last points on electric slash.

 

But in this case, perhaps so, some or if not, most people value electric slash.

ES Spam FTW! Annoy those BSN scorers out of your lobby so you can topscore!

[Quarian Master Race]

ES is terrible and spammers of it are universally bad at the game.
