Lets say, for whatever reason, you know you'll be hitting the whole gamut of lagtacular issues. Rubber-banding, skipping, chunking, magnet-hands, turrets that kill you a half second before their salvo goes off; you know... the fun stuff.

 

You know you're going to have to deal with it going in, so what do you suit up as?

 

I'm asking this question because I'm not really sure I have an answer for myself. I'd probably say Paladin but that's my generic go-to kit all round.

 

Obviously I'd avoid Graal, Kishock, etc.

 

So, whatcha got? :D

Anything with venom.

 

Even if the enemy teleports due to lag, the AoE will wreck it.

Demolisher

I hate how much the grenades fail, tho. QME's projectile power is pretty annoying too, though it is all relative. You will still wreck everything on the map, you just have to mash that grenade key 10x to throw two grenades, which is annoying and irritating.

Probably a Krogan Soldier or something like that, though I really don't use them very often.

 

As far as kits I regularly use go, probably the Drell Assassin. As bad as the Tactical Cloak bug can be when you add Recon Mine to the equation, there's always the fallback plan of using Recon Mine to do most of your offence. Other than a long cooldown, lag can't do much to stop Recon Mine.

Hmm something with passive damage dealt, something that doesn't need to move a lot, something that doesn't need to hide a lot, and can take damage... Geth Jugg...

On the other hand, if you want to sit in a corner and be able to fight from a spot and not die, good choices include asari valkyrie (let everything that walks past get primed for biotic explosions) and justicar (keep bubble up and either prime what passes by or just not die with reave spamming

Yeah I know, I hate that too, that's why I don't play stuff like Drell adept and such when the lag is heavy. Arc grenades, though, are so ridiculously powerful in gold that even if you need to go through 3 animations per grenade they're still an I-win button. You can still fire them when you're behind the corner, hit things through 3 walls and stagger lock entire clusterfucks of enemies. When it comes to cheese, there's no beating arc grenades, lol.

A character who can kill stuff without relying much on a precise aiming, and not too squishy. QME, QMI are good ones.

 

Anything with venom.

 

Even if the enemy teleports due to lag, the AoE will wreck it.

I get blank shots with the Venom on bad hosts.

Yep, I've used him sometimes when I was uploading a video. He is so slow that I barely noticed the 1-2s lag lol.

I usually don't do well on some friend's hosts in any case as the lag approaches 600 msec (Australia, NZ) regardless of kit. Interestingly, lag with Chinese hosts is usually not so bad. Otherwise, for pugs, I use mpinger and instantly quit any game with ping over 100 msec or game without any ping (lost packets). But being KroSent or QMI usually helps. Juggernaut is also somewhat lag-resilient, at least you don't get synced out of nowhere and can gel.

 

Also, lag in mass effect is not that bad. To those, who complain too much (myself included), I may suggest playing DAI. There in DAIMP, lag can be up to 2 seconds even with region lock and every kit is messed up. You can have 1 second lag easily playing with a guy in the same city. So, lag in ME is rather mild.

Anything but Vanguard and/or projectile weapons.  Oh and sometimes grenades are bad aka "WHY DO I KEEP THROWING NOTHING?!?"

Raider Turian Soldier is buffed by lag.

 

Do you really feel like that? I know I hate when I get more than 2 shots. Sure, I get more theoretical DPS, but what good is that when I can't hit the broadside of a praeotrian because lag? Also, it fucks up my rhythm. **** lag.

My net connection is so horrendous I am more used to three shots than am two.

When I get more than 2 shots out of an off-host Raider, I tend to get more blanks than actual shots that do damage. 

 

Maybe I need to l2lag?  :?
