As if they still had anything to do with BioWare...

 

 

 

 

Wish they still did.

I like the title.

Oh, no duplicate threads please.

I'm going to sit this one out. Heck, I'm not doing any challenge until Jaws of Hakkon is released on PS4.

 

I just wished I held off playing those new eps of GoT and Life is Strange now, I've very lil interest in playing this weekend challenge.

I got a level 21 Elusive Icebow,which is complete garbage, and a bunch of low level commons. Commendation Chests are sh*t. You should get a guaranteed Unique like the Commendation Packs in ME3.

I feel the same way.  All of the victory chests and commendation chests never really feel like I won/accomplished something except get more stuff to salvage

I think it's easiest to get 5 Golds a match with an Elementalist. You have Winter's Grasp and Stonefist to do the Shatter team combo, and then you can take pretty much whatever else you want, do solo routine and easily get ability and weapon kills golds, and of course the Immortal and streak golds. Easy peasy.

 

I grabbed the Ele for a solo run, but I was level 9, so I didn't even have enough points to buy Stonefist (I'd already spent my points getting Barrier.)

 

By the time I would have leveled up the Ele to be able to do that, it would just be faster to grab it with Templer/Keeper at 4 per game.

Kenny, please edit thread title or let SofaJockey do the weekend thread like normal. The current title will only incite more pitchforks. The DLC was never promised today, we just thought it would come today.

 

No.

I understand. But to be honest, you don't really even need Barrier with Ele. I've cleared zone 5 Perilous somewhere between 10-15 times with a Barrierless Ele, and countless times on Threatening. You might want to try it without it after your next promote. I usually go Immolate, Stonefist, Wall of Fire and Meteor Storm. With so much CC, you don't even have to worry about Barrier. No one on the team is taking damage when all the enemies are on the ground or running in terror.

Took roughly an hour and half to solo/pug routine to get to 20 medals.  Averaging about 3 medals a match as the Elementalist.  Didn't receive anything of note in Commendation chest.

It certainly is not as exciting or rewarding as opening a Commendation Chest, and seeing if you'd get a N7 Hurricane, Crusader or... Valkyrie.

 

So what's this weeks challenge, earn gold medals?  I think i'll do Katari on Perilous to make it "exciting".

Show video of you clearing demons perilous solo after patch or didn't happen.

I never said anything about solo. Are you that asocial that whenever someone talks about clearing Perilous you automatically assume it's solo?

 

Hell, I even said "the team" in the post. What's your deal, guy?

[Rolenka]

Yes, but then they'd just spam you with low-level uniques instead of low-level commons and rares.The drop rate of a high-level unique would remain the same.

Still, it would be an improvement.

[SofaJockey]

At least challenge progress is coming along nicely...

 

PC and Xbox One need to be gathering around 1,700 medals/hour.

So after 4 hours of the challenge, that's a c.7,000 split target  

 

PC was around 10,500

Xbox One is on around 12,000 so both ahead of target.

 

PS4 needs to be on around 2,300/hour, so above 9,200 after 4 hours

Last gen needs to be on around 330/hour, so above 1,320 after 4 hours

[Jbrizzy84]

Because that's what you're going to be doing without barrier. Asocial is the barrierless guy that claims he plays for the team but doesn't take barrier because he has enough 'cc'for 'himself'. Great you can do it without barrier, how about that katari in the corner of the reaver going down?

Also note that you get more exp with a barrier and cc build from support than all cc. Also more survivability for the whole team and your asocialness. So why would anyone want less exp or less chance of successful extraction?

It doesn't make sense unless you have a specifically organized party that runs the same all the time but not in pugs.

Why are you quoting "himself" like I said anything about having only enough CC for myself and not the rest of the team? Why are you basing your entire post on an incorrect assumption about an incorrect assumption? This will be the second time I have pointed out that I said "the team" in my first post. Do you have a problem with reading comprehension or something? I guess you must, so I'll reiterate it for you: "No one on the team is taking damage when all the enemies are on the ground or running in terror." If you're not good enough of a player to run a Barrierless Ele to success with a team in Perilous, that's one thing (and judging by your misconception about mages and having to use more potions in that other thread, I'd say that a highly likely possibility), but that doesn't mean that it's not a good build and more than capable of clearing zone 5, and it certainly doesn't mean that it is asocial in any way. Do you even know what that word means? By your usage of it, it looks like you are just trying to appear clever by using a word I used in an attempt to insult me.

[DrascatonisFade3K]

Oh btw, the katari in the corner doesn't need barrier anymore... We got fade guard now

Lol you seem angry , pm me when you want barrier lessons for mages. Goodbye

[ALTBOULI]

so no announcement about any mulitplayer DLC then? I have to say that I have been left disappointed with Bioware - They talked as if something big was going to happen today and we get nothing....The least they could have done is given us an interesting challenge but no, we get to do the medal challenge again..I have done most of the challenges up until this week but I really cant see myself going for it this week. Thankfully Bloodborne is out, maybe I can enjoy that instead of this disappointment of a game

Barrier is a luxury. Mass CC (which the Elementalist provides) is a luxury. If you are on your Katari or Reaver and can't play them well enough to survive without barrier while most enemies are panicked, knocked down, frozen or weakened, you shouldn't play them. Calling an Elementalist asocial because they are "only" CCing things for you is idiotic.

Well I didn't envy them and could totally get the reason behind their decision. They came to EA in genuine hope to secure the future of their baby just to see it torn apart and see a toxic community bitching about everything (TOR's end game, ME3's ending...).

[WangtorioJackson]

I should be telling that to you apparently but I'm not because I don't like it when I get PMs from noobs.

[scene_cachet]

Not sure what you mean. The only classes to have assets added in the last patch have nothing to do with the Hakkon DLC. As previous poster stated, Avvar Skywatchers are referenced in the base game, you meet one in the Fallow Mire. Isabela was a party-member from DA2 and her general character concept of pirate captain/ duelist has been present since DA:O. Ditto with Bards and Dragons. So there is no necessarily Hakkon-linked content in what was hidden in the patch, that we know of so far. It's a shame they did not announce the DLC today, but that does not mean that it's release is directly tied to the end of the Xbox One/ PC Exclusivity.

 

It could be a number of things that are tied to the DLC - Maps/weapons/Avvar Faction/Dragon.

 

And if it's not due to exclusivity, maybe they're saving their marketing for a combined push of the SP and MP DLC when it launches on it's most populated platform.

[maxulic]

It's a good thing that we are getting all these events that encourage team play instead of solo... Oh wait!

 

Maybe they could explain why I should run with a party to get one gold when I can solo a routine and get 4 golds.
