Plus you should never ever use the Retard Carbine. It consumes 0..01% of your shields per clip. It also rumored to damage the neuron cells.. studies inconclusive.

You better off waiting until you get Talon X rather than completing solo with that abomination. :P

With the gear and ammo he got he'll probably wonder why Reegar is considered op anyway.

You have a quarian femfiltrator and a Widow 3. The real question then is why bother with lolgold when you already have the perfect solo plat setup right there?

I can't add much that hasn't already been mentioned but make *sure* you watch your flanks and know possible spawn points.

OP: are you regularly and reliably soloing Silvers?

If yes...what kits/weapons/gear are you using?

If no...why are you trying to solo Gold?

^ The Lone Wolf Banner. The only reason I did it on my new PS3 account rigt away when I first started it as my first alt account. Folks just don't respect punny new manifest weapons and are quick to kick you. Lone Wolf Banner fixed that for me on PS3.

 

My second PS3 match today some guy ninja'd it to Platinum. I readied thinking "I'm good. I'm BSN material. Let's kick butt, epeen, and chew bubble gum." Everybody readied up but one guy unchecked it like "Dude. We're doing Platinum. Aren't you gonna do something about those pitiful level 1 consumables?" Was the vibe I got. I was like into the mic something like "Yeah, yeah. I know it's Platinum. And good to go." Because I was just going to spam Smash with the odd biotic charge anyway. But if it weren't from my uber cool Lone Wolf Banner. My pugs wouldn't of had faith in me.

 

Oh yeah, and that we succeeded too. Because "Lone Wolf Powers inspired confidence in my team."

Easy as hell.

Take the Kroguard and put geth as enemies. Choose a medium size map, so nothing like Rio. I'd go for White.

And equip the Acolyte with the following mods: Melee Stunner and Magazine Upgrade/Power magnifier.

As equipment: choose Phasic ammo, strength enhancer, power amplifier and juggernauth Shield.

Here is a link to the build I use: http://www.narida.py...gernautShield5/

Use the pistol to strip shields and then charge and melee. Your worst enemies will probably be the pyro geth and geth bomber drones, but just charge and melee. The Acolyte grants you a very fast cooldown, so you shouldn't have big problems. And when you are facing geth primes, always target them with biotic charge. when there are multiple enemies around the prime, target the big red thing and the others will be killed after a couple of biotic charges.

 

This is not a build I invented, but I found it online and I don't remember who posted it, so I can't give the credits to the inventor/s.

Against Geth, actual double hits don't really matter, but since they clump you can hit more than one unit per shot.

 

OP could also consider Salarian Engineer spamming Energy Drain.

 

Ah, I didn't notice Salarian Engineer. Yeah, SE vs. Geth should be relatively straightforward on Gold even with a crappy manifest.

 

Alright. Yesterday I tried my own advice and solo'ed Gold against Geth on Giant. I chose the SE with Mattock similar to the build suggested by capn. The only adjustment was that I took only an AR amp II and the Thermal Clip Storage Gear to meet OPs limited manifest. My build

 

Lessons learned:

 

- Geth Scanner is a crutch and I need it!

- tried to save consumables because OP can't hold 6 missiles/ops/gels - of course got targets W3 and W10

- without enough consumables you can't: ragegel, rageops, rageTCP, ragenuke the double prime W5 and W9

- you and your decoy can RHA-tank 2 primes, but get screwed by 2 bombers

- some random quote:

The pyro...is behind you!

 

I'm nowhere near a solo specialist and my aim is known to be ... unreliable at best. It took me nearly an hour and I wasted 2 gels and 1 ops in W7 because derp mistake and a missile to try to switch targets during W10 (Pro Tip: does not work if you only hit primes!)

 

So, OP, maybe you're a real solo pro and a natural and get it done. Otherwise you may want to wait at least until you can hold all 6 consumables and probably until you have better equipment/weapons.

Try Geth on Ghost Hazard - the rain makes them chirp and that gives them away. Also it's quite atmospheric.

All enemies make sounds, this is how I locate them. Of course, there are some exceptions like Dragoons, but those guys are pretty straightforward.

Yea, no need for the geth scanner, unless you're deaf gamer.

VEry nice Franck ! As I m sure you qualify as a reliable gold soloer and op is still quite far from your "skills" and game knowledge, it means that kroguard reegar with AP (nice pick Capn) is quite the BESTway imo.

 

Maybe u should message OP with your test !

Well, I'd rather have a Black Widow with 3 shots... 1 shots weapons are not forggiven and I find using snipers much harder on MP than on SP for some reason. I guess that's because there's no dilation. I could try a Silver with that chick.

 

OP: are you regularly and reliably soloing Silvers?

If yes...what kits/weapons/gear are you using?

If no...why are you trying to solo Gold?

 

Well, soloing Silver with the kroguard with quite easy, yes. Can't say the same about Gold.

I've never had any issue being kicked. Maybe I got lucky. That's not the reason I want the Lone Wolf banner, it's more to have more banners as I only have 2 so far (5 different layouts). But I've seen some people with more challenge poitns than me and without banner. So having a banner (I have Biotic God and Mathemagician) already helps a bit with trust :P

Thanks for testing this! I myself tried Geth Scanner and it's mainly useful against Cerberus. I'm sure I don't have your skills so maybe I'll wait. Getting 6 consumables might take a while though.

Cos in gold you'll have to deal increasingly with armour. The Reegar starts working there with piercing mods and damage boost, namely a HVB which you don't have. Not mentioning the lack of incheesiary ammo to make it faster for you.

u loose too much against armor on gold with the reegar if u dont have some kind of piercing. Inci cheese is not enough to compensate.

Kalence is quite good to see that. So that means AP rounds

IMO the gratest ninjas of this game are pretorians, they make no sound whatsoever and even with geth scanner they always find some way of appearing from behind unexpectedly

I turn during reloads, just to check my six. Or I make sure someone else is standing behind me, so they get grabbed first. :P

I once got grabbed out of nowhere. It was a little cat jumping on my naked feet when I was half asleep. My lightning reaction scared the hell out of cat and girl-friend.

 

I was quite awake after that, though.
