I want a box to stand on as part of every Volus kit, so I'm able to see over low cover and use a weapon with a scope.

It took me a minute, but now I cannot unsee it

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

 

 

Hang on. I'm going to go make a video of me playing terribly with a Volus to prove you wrong!

Why have shield boost have a build in radius of effect while at the same time giving them such low shields and health they can't take any direct damage without getting pwned?

 

Volus have multiple sources of DR that can be cycled, meaning that their 500 shields can go a lot further than 500 shields goes on most vanilla characters.

 

They can achieve 100% DR, eliminating all damage temporarily. They can also give themselves i-frames using Shield Boost, and even avoid synch-kills if the animation timing fits within the i-frame window.

 

They can do a lot more, too, but I'll stop there because I'm only responding to your comment that they cannot absorb direct damage. I probably could have thrown a dart at the screen to pick something to respond to.

 

Didn't read more than a couple of lines you wrote in this thread but it looks like obvious troll baits to me. Shame on you BSN for taking all the baits.

 

You may be right. But there are people out there on the internetz who have a tremendous capacity to be a little wrong, and then through their own stubborn argumentative nature, convert that into being spectacularly wrong across many pages. Something akin to "Let's dig our way out of this hole with more holes!"

 

It can sometimes be hard to tell the difference.

 

Sounds like a bunch of excuses to me. Good teamwork shouldn't be punished.

 

I'm not sure how they sound like excuses. I wasn't technically speaking for the developers, but rather speculating on what I believe happened, based on what I would do in that situation.

 

If I have to triage which bugs get the most attention, I'm definitely moving the ones with publicly-known workarounds towards the bottom of the list.

With all those voluses threads i now know well how to time my SB and what i ll be doing next time i m in game !

Volus, please spam your shield boost. 

There, I fixed thaf for ya.

 

* * * * *

My characters been locked up by that bug many times.

Nevertheless, I'd still prefer, at any time, to have a Volus by my side boosting the hell out of [both of] our shields as much as their little hearts desire.

I, at least, can't claim that a shield boost has never saved me - it has. Or that a shield boost has always killed me.

I'm woman enough to own my mistakes / dying in game, are you?

[Jeremiah12LGeek]

So giving a character the ability to spam shield's back to full health if needed. Spam team mates shields back to full health. and be able to go on a rampage the likes you would expect from a Krogan is balanced to you?

 

Really feel like I'm talking to players on Runescape again. Were 2-3 years after EoC updated unbalanced the game way in favor of the player. The simple concept of bringing up that maybe higher end slayer monsters shouldn't be killed by 1 threshold from full health. Is like I'm speaking Japanese to them.

 

Your post just makes you seem rather silly.

 

I'm beginning to think Patrick Bateman was right.

[Arktinen]

I'm beginning to think Patrick Bateman was right.

Indeed, fully agreed.  We should all bow our heads in shame - and play more, whine write less.

I'll go and do exactly that right now in penance.

How else would I troll pugs as a Volus? 

[PHOEN1XK1NG]

Your probably not the only one. But fear not players will complain at you form simply trying not to die because of a bug.

I'm convinced.

 

 

It's most definitely a l2p problem.

Damn... I "liked" it before I even actually saw it... my mind is so dirty I saw something that wasn't even there before seeing the optical that actually was!

There's a guy reading a book?

I don't think the shield boost bug is limited to volus, I think it can also be triggered by the geth turret, and the escort drone.  Basically outside influences that restore shields.

Proof that at least one of us can be considered polite company!

I thought the woman is reading the book. But she had to look real close...

I sucked a bit on this run... venom is obviously a better choice, and I was not ready for AM III

I don't think the shield boost bug is limited to volus, I think it can also be triggered by the geth turret, and the escort drone.  Basically outside influences that restore shields. 

 

It can definitely be caused by the Geth Turret. It is much rarer because the Turret's version isn't AoE, and will only apply the effect to a player who has actually taken shield damage. In the case of Volus Shield Boost, the power will effect everyone in the AoE, regardless of whether they have taken shield damage.

 

I'm not sure which other sources can cause the bug. I've never seen it with a drone, but that only means that it's probably rare if the drone can cause it. If the drone's ability functions the way the Geth Turret's does, then it would be even rarer, simply because the Drone is only an issue on those RNG occasions that it comes up in specific objective waves.

 

I wonder if Supply Pylon could cause it?

[JGDD]

Supply pylon can do it as well. Rare, but not unheard of.

[Quarian Master Race]

The locking up of characters requiring heavy melee to unlock their controls is it seems a bug. If it was fixed as it should have been then the Volus would be able to spam their shield restore effect to keep their party's shields up. That ability would necessitate a reduction in offensive capability for balance reasons.  As no other class would have that ability on that scale.  And this is a two fold in keeping in line with game lore. Volus are not fighters. Quarians are more warriors then the Volus are. So setting them up with more support/defensive role would make much more sense. Much in the same way the Batarians and Krogan characters are very much offensive set ups.

the fuсk is this supposed to imply? We're better warriors than everyone.

U wana 1v1 me babby?

[Dalakaar]

U wana 1v1 me babby?

Best go with a melee kit if we ever 1v1 fyi.

Cause I'm just gonna run around Shield Boosting you til your weapons and powers are locked up beyond repair.

[The NightMan Cometh]

It's fine if they are somewhere near me and my shields go down then they come over and boost...BUT TO BE RUNNING STEP FOR STEP WITH ME, SHIELD BOOSTING FOR NO REASON & NOT KILLING ANYTHING IS UNACCEPTABLE.
