Lower: He didn't let the lobby fill up before launch, but I decided to roll with it.
Even Lower: For giggles, I had been running an Avenger Tsol.
Very Low: Wave 3 hack, he got stomped just after the hack completed, and I was hugged by a banshee a bit later.
Consolation Prize High: The 10K credits I made off of that let me afford a SP, and I unlocked the Quarksman!

I just finished a laggy game with your two team-mates. I assume ConnectionDown was hosting your game?
I constantly drop into his lobby when looking for UUG. I honestly tried a couple of games, but he is a bad host for me for some reason. Ping is decent, however, there is a lot of teleporting and powers don't hit in most cases. Looks like many lost packets to me.

I don't know who hosted, I lost connection after the game. But it's really nice that you quoted both of us ![]()

Low: somehow managed to get them all intact to extraction.... And then they ran to camp the lower LZ on dagger
High: spent extraction successfully running my little Quarain bum bum off leading reapers around in circles at the other side of the map.
With about 12 seconds to go, I slowly decended the ramp leading to extraction. I was like Xerxes from 300 and I was their kiting god... firing celebratory mythical missiles into the air.
No enemy had even so much as grazed their collective pug-bodied presence.
Upon my decension I thought that one pug was actually prostrating towards me. But alas, he had somehow mysteriously died.
The only plausible explanation is the long-debated theory of spontaneous pug combustion. This idea has previously been ridiculed in some circles, but I am now a stern believer in the fact that this phenomenon does indeed exist.

Pretty much the same for me. Fair bit of teleporting. I was using the Juggy IIRC so can't comment on powers not hitting.

High: Found an N7 Destroyer Build that I can use on PC, finally.
Low: The games were terrible. Seemed like we had a decent lobby but we were getting crapped on by incredible misfortune. I saw andy_3_913 pop in and then out of the Firebase Ghost Hazard. Should've followed his lead! ![]()

Let me see if I can find it...
A few things about the build...
1. I've never used the Hawk Missile Launcher before, so I was curious as to what it did.
2. I cannot aim with the mouse. Never could.
3. To get both Devastator and Hawk Missile, I sacrificed the frag grenade.
I'm going by memory on some of the items. The blank mod spaces just mean whatever I feel like bringing at the moment.

Cool thanks, I was curious, seen people usually run all sixes and skip one tree, I usually skip dm but I've skipped passives before too.
The skip one tree is my build on Wii U as advised by many vets there. So, I never had a chance to see the Hawk missile. It's probably a really bad build, but it's one I was fairly happy to use. It does make me think of changing my Wii U build too. The krysae, hawk missile, krysae 3 punch combo seems to fit really well in terms of synergy. ![]()
I didn't mind putting 3 points on the grenade since I only ever use it as a panic button.

I use only 3 in frag grenades, and 5 in fitness on my Destroyer build. I like the Hawk missiles, as they provide regular stagger on mook enemies, and make phantoms bubble up.

Refire Time and Hydra Missiles are IMO essential Hawk Missile upgrades. Their main function is to stagger sneaky mooks, shoo away Phantoms, and kill Swarmers; their damage is pretty low really. Skipping Grenades allows you to dakka moar on your Typhoon, PPR, or Revey, and it is the build I myself use.

High - dancing with the banshee. I did the 'diamond" around them. Dodge left, dodge right, run towards them and roll instead of running away, etc.
I wanted to see how long I can sustain it; it's fun to see them grab at empty air. I'd misjudge sometimes but so far, only one pick up.
Low - someone wanted putter guns. I couldn't put a finger on it, was using reegar, until I used the hurrican. It suddenly had a minus bean counter and act like it had a belly ache, put putting short rounds. If I want to play golf, I'll go out there, not putter around in a game.

High: Great, great platinums and golds on Wii U.
Low: Due to some strange circumstances, I got invited to the matches, but joined in when the folks didn't wait for me to land in the lobby. So, I was stuck on Wave 1 without any gear... TWICE. LOL. ![]()

You should put on the gear/consumables before accepting the invite. ![]()

Yeah, I normally do, but, I saw the state of the match was them sitting on the lobby. So I thought they'd give me time to gear up. To my surprise the match already started. LOL. ![]()
High: Had tremendous volus fun today. Apparently, I finished the 100 first aid medals while zipping through FB Reactor reviving some bloke throughout the match.
Low: My N7 destroyer is still lacking something to make it a killer robot. lol. I think the 3 rocket revolution would help, but I'll probably wait on the respec card. ![]()

This is the setup I use on him. It's set up so that I can use a 2 shot Executioner, but works well with ARs too.

Interesting. I think there are a few things I'd like to try when I take him out again. I'll do some respeccing on Wii U and test those ideas out. ![]()

I've tried myself to find some build that didn't sacrifice any tree on the destroyer, but once I switched to a no missile one there was just no turning back. I wanted something that wasn't all 6s*, but it's so much more efficient that I had to comply.
*all 6s for me means to skip a tree. Sad that I feel like I have to clarify it...
I'm sure that the all 6s build are way better. But I cannot aim, which changes the situation dramatically. lol.
After I play around with the builds, I'll probably revert my Wii U build to a non-HML build.

The hawk missile is a pretty good power, but my main issue is that on PC the Destroyer isn't that fun really to play, it's just aiming and shooting the gun, so I always skip it and max the rest, his grenades are really good at close range.

Just give it some time, with practice you will get there, using mouse and keyboard is quite different if you are used to game pads. If I where to try MEMP on consoles I'd suck pretty bad before getting used to game pads again, the last game I played on a console were Goldeneye 64, that's quite a few years ago now.

Hey I don't think my comp is quite that good. But it came in a box with black and white cow pattern on it so it must be stylishly high-powered.

Low: Decided to try once again N3.III today. My Krodept versus Derpshit on Jade, Everything was going very well until I got phantrolled on wave 5.
Lower: After that, I thought, it's probably not my day for soloing, so why don't I just practice the Krodept in a few PUGs. Got into a GIP on Jade versus Derpshit. Got phantrolled on wave 3, cause lolLag, lolDerpshit, lolJade..
(*questionably)High: This week of attempting N3.III on Plat has marked the period of my life with highest concentration of me screaming "You mother*cking piece of sh*t". Given that temperatures in my hemisphere are low right now and rage gets the blood flowing, I'm gonna put this as high.
Philosophical musings of the week: I whined and bitched about N2.III only because I'd forgotten the amount of sh!t Derperus pulls.

Missiles are fun, I just wish there was an evo to prevent them from screwing up my aim... But I like how they're basically a semi-passive power - they fire autonomously, but you still control them yourself.
60666 is probably the "best" build, but because grenade spam is stupid, I spec mine 66365 or 66066
