Say I was of a mind to Krysae...I know the (in)glorious days of FBWGG are gone, but I was thinking it might have some utility as a proc for Cryo ammo, so I was thinking something like this. As per usual, I am open to your inane suggestions brilliance and experience as to what works well

Juggernaut: Krysae stagger helps siege pulses land without fail. Three shots and 3 pulses syncs perfectly when it comes to reload hiding (timing is critical because krysae has a rather long-ish delay before reloading). Sniper range on a slow movement character is always nice to have on larger maps.

 

You pretty much need a quick detonator for explosions to keep the damage up. CS spamming HSol is another option. I only use it on these two characters.

Oh, good choice, had not considered the Juggy. 

 

You'll be proud to know the next time I'm on I'm planning on rolling with some Incendiary Venom on him, figured he was as good a place to start as any

IIRC The Krysae is one of the Area Priming weapons. Any kit with Chain Overload can make good use of that when paired with Disrupter/Cryo/Incin ammo.

Nice, I was going to mention to SE as a good option.

Else if you want to keep your SE's Inc 6b for armor, the QFE is a perfect Inc 6a candidate.

 

Do you have a Conc Shot spammer specced for Shatter on any of your soldiers?

True dat. I thought about GE, but if you catch a spawn right, AOE spec Incinerate does pretty well ime so I figured it would give me an excuse to use a Salarian

Yeah I thought long and hard about the QFE, (as things tend to get when you're thinking about the QFE), but I just can't see prying the Claymoar from her

 

You know I don't, but my HFS isn't specced at all, so she's a good candidate for it

Yep, I was going to share a GE build ( http://kalence.drupa...23X55364!.889G9), totally not original though.

My HMS is a Conc Shot spammer and gets good mileage out of his Krysae runs.  But I'm usually loading him with Disruptor or Inc ammo, so I don't take Shatter.

 

One unheralded benefit of the Krysae is it's modest 25% hipfire penalty.  If you have a sticky 'nade Inf to spare...you could get some decent CEs withOUT having to throw from scope view all the time.  Just a thought.

I like it only on the QMI, because of the sniper bonus at rank 6 of Tac Cloak and to pair an AoE primer with an AoE detonator. Also because the gun has a low fire rate and a huge reload time, so having a quick stagger tool without cooldown like Arc nades is very useful with this weapon.

 

As for the ammo,  disruptor and incendiary both make sense. Disruptor because the Krysae has a damage bonus against armor, so you can consider that using an anti-shields ammo is the best option. Incendiary because you can think that you have already Arc nades to deal with shields, so it's better to use an anti-armor ammo. To sum up, both are good, the results will mainly depend on the faction you're fighting.  

[Terminator Force]

I've got one if you like to max out Electric Slash on Shadow;

 

Tac-Cloak > Disrupter Krysae shot > immediate Electric Slash (before Tac-Cloak cooldown kicks in that would prevent this power from happening) > Krysae shot > Krysae shot. Rinse, lather and repeat. Always lather.

 

 

I like this Krysae build because you also get Tac-Cloak SR bonus on the Krysae & tac-cloak power bonus dmg on Electric Slash under one cloak. Plus you can both prime for more then one combo and detonate for more then one combo.

Might have to try that out, good description of why it works.

This would also be why I take the EB over the ammo clip mod for the SE (along with ULM for any Krysae caster).

Ammo supply never seems to be an issue.  Can't unload the rounds fast enough.

OniGanon's kry some more (kry some moar?) thread demonstrated the krysae's effectiveness on the salarian infiltrator.  It's my fave SI build and is a fun way to gib mooks and phantoms.  Who knew that dragoons were so red on the inside.  The thread is out there somewhere.

 

I really like the turian soldier cryo ammo build, which I've posted in the last 20 or so "wah wah cryo ammo" threads.  Marksman does an excellent job making up for the pathetic refire delay.  For the 21st time:  shoot, conc shot, shoot, conc shot, shoot, marksman, shootshootshoot.  Conc shot has a cooldown that's well matched to the krysae's fire rate and gives you that nice shatter damage bonus vs chilled enemies.  The biggest challenge to the build is the lousy stagger mechanics that mooks like mauraders have, especially when there's lag.  

 

I've tried it a few times on the drell adept with warp ammo.  Works well enough.

Salfiltrator is good enough for me, it also happens to be my sniper infiltrator class, so I'm all for it. 

 

Also, any excuse to use a fat Turian is a good excuse for me

I've never specced my Krentinel this way, but I am thinking of burning a respec card to try it out. krogan passives are pretty meh as it is, so might work out. If not, there are always additional respec cards.

Skipping passives is always the way to go on the krentinel, imo.  

 

You're lack of melee however?  Your tank bred whelp would be nothing but small snack between meals.  I'd advocate for this guy.  Damage is better than radius his grenades.  DR is better recharge on tech armor.  Melee is melee.  The Striker is a fine krogan weapon that does the same type of damage as the krysae and comes with a pretty orange omniblade to boot.  Krysae would work too, though not as well.

[Salarian Master Race]

SI with Incendiary Krysae, as mentioned above, is one of my go-to builds on Xbox.

 

On PC I've been using it on Vanilla Human Sentinel with Disruptor Ammo and Radius Throw.

(Shoot (AoE Stagger) > Throw (AoE Stagger) > Tech Burst (AoE Stagger) X3) > Reload > Throw (AoE Stagger) > Repeat

 

For bosses you can go

Warp > Shoot > Shoot > Throw (AoE Stagger) > Tech Burst (AoE Stagger) > Shoot (AoE Stagger) > Throw (AoE Stagger) > Tech Burst (AoE Stagger) > Reload > Throw (AoE Stagger) > Biotic Explosion (AoE Stagger) > Repeat

 

This also works with Concussive Shot instead of throw, but later today I will give the abovementioned Cryo Krysae Concussive build a try.  That sounds interesting, though the Acolyte version of this may be more effective.

I currently have him specced melee, as per usual, but figured I might try something different since no omni-blade attachment for sniper rifles. Should have thought of the Striker though, it just makes lore sense, plus the omni-blade. 

[The NightMan Cometh]

I only use the Krysae on 2 characters because they make it so much fun

 

FQI w Disruptor rounds

 

Huntress w Incid ammo = double splosions

[Terminator Force]

^ Huntress suggestion sounds hot.

[kajtarp]

I like it with the drell infiltrator.

 

use recon mine for vision and damage buff only, no to blindside teammates. only detonate when you relocate it.

Cryo Mordin

 

I'd normally suggest Disruptor for this build for max explosions, but whatever. Cryo will prime all health for instant detonation by Incinerate, and Energy Drain will detonate FE primes enemies with shields & barriers. The Cryo evo on Incinerate will allow this to do tons of damage, and this setup vs Geth would be unstoppable.

[INVADERONE]

My favorite kit for the Krysae after the nerf.
