@JedTed: Gatsby mentioned he doesn't use any bonus abilites at all, and only took it because it seemed fitting rp-wise.
I think if you aim for a powerful bonus ability, (area)reave would be a good choice. You would be able to deal with all three types of defenses, then. Other than that, a fitting ammo power (Warp or AP, for example) can be nice, too.

But i'm geussing you don't wanna max it out though.  I generally don't use AI hacking that much, is it more useful on Insanity?

I situationally Respec in certain abilities for certain missions. Later tonight (hopefully) i'll be posting the Tali Recruitment mission, where I take all of my points out of incinerate (pointless move on synthetics since overload is better in every way) and put them all into AI Hack. And it is awesome. AI hack is a blast and very functional on the few missions where you encounter alot of geth/mechs. Other than that though, I never use it and won't put points into it.

@JedTed

You definetly don't need ai-hacking to defeat synthetics, but if you have enough Element Zero and want to have some fun, you can take a build with ai hacking for the geth missions, though - it is quite useful for bigger battles - well, mainly it grants you the feeling of controlling a tech army with your drone (and possibly legion/tali and their drones and ai hacking abilites, too!)

 Part 5 / Harbinger and the Praetorian 

The final fight on Horizon. I play a bit more aggressively in this section than I perhaps needed too and it gets me in a bit of trouble, but thats what Medi-Gel is for. Drone does its best to attack Praetorian but proves to be mostly useless.

I've said it in my Adept Videos, but the best tactic for taking on the praetorian is to not let shepard get locked into cover. The Praetorian will only fire if it has Line of Sight, which it can aquire if your locked into cover and standing on the edge of a wall or crouching behind a box. However, if your simply standing behind a wall without being locked in, the praetorian has no Line of Sight and you can easily dart back and forth to avoid getting hit by the eye-beams.

I've done two engineer playthroughs, once on normal and another on insanity. Both times the combat drone was mostly ineffective against the Praetorian on Horizon, but on the Collector ship my drone had it completely stun locked. I'm guessing it's because my drone was more leveled up at that point. I think on both playthroughs my drone was lvl 4 attack drone during the Collector ship mission. Anybody else have a similar experience?

Your vids are always awesome, I was watching one of the engineer vids and you said you wanted to name your drone because of how useful it is. If I may suggest you should call it 343 Guilty Spark from Halo he is the lightball that appears in Halo 1-3.

Brilliant name. Though i hated that POS. I was so excited when you got to actually kill the thing. I remember in Halo 1 where you couldn't do any damage to it then in Halo 2 they let you kill that little ******. So many horrible and fond memories of my halo days.

Hmmm... speaking of your Drone... Semi old and formal names are always best. Harold, Jefferson, Clark, Montgomery, Winston, Rutherford, just to name a few.

[Average Gatsby]

I'll definitely have a name for Drone by the time I post Collector Ship videos.



Tali's Recruitment Live is currently being edited.

What about HAL as a name?

[vranasm2]

probably too late, but what about something along the line of R2D2...maybe not fitting much to lore of ME

If I was going to do a star wars reference, I'd go with Mynock (Wedge Antilles' Droid Name)

[thisisme8]

Herman is another good one.

[Darnalak]

Naming a mini deathstar seems awful arrogant! (TIC)

[Arhka]

You should name it after this guy.

Part 1 / Getting the Tempes

For this first section, I talk about my build and the squadmates I bring, as well as fighting my way to getting my favorite gun, the Tempest.

[Welder0]

Nicely done, Gat, anything but average...

[Lumenadducere]

I love how you make areas of the game that frustrated me to no end look like a complete cakewalk. The two scion/husk waves fight in Part 4 saw me running laps around the entire area with both of my allies dead. The shockwaves would miss me because I'd keep moving and the husks were running to try and catch up. I just kept casting incinerate every time it was up and made sure I was constantly on the move. The rest of the fight went much, much smoother, but that particular one always gives me such grief.



Looking forward to seeing what you do on the Collector ship and the Reaper IFF. I got through the ship last night and besides the Praetorian it wasn't too much of a hassle. I can already tell the Reaper IFF is going to give me some issues, but I think a combination of Mordin + my incinerate and then Jack's shockwave should take care of most of it.

[aphelion002]

I think Boo is a perfect name for your drone

[mikedelta1212]

im stuck at the prothean on the collector ship. i keep getting shot in the back by collectors while dodging the prothean. maybe ill reload and bring along cain! cant wait to see your vid on this section.

its not that the prothean is that hard, its just my sqaddies cant keep the collectors off my back. im looking forward to your solution to this problem. infiltrator was easy since you could literally dissappear from the battle while you found new cover and sentinel could weather the storm. havent reached this yet with my adept though.

You make me wanna try out the engineer class, gatsby!



I've never played anything but a vanguard before though, so I'd have absolutely zero experience with the class :X



Very nice videos, by the way! You make Insanity look like a joke!

[mikedelta1212]

ARGGG!!! died again!! Thats it! im getting the big boy, OH yeah, prothean meet cain!!!



Average Gatsby, you make insanity look like easy. props to you.



I know youre not getting cain. youll probably freeze the prothean then punch it in the face for the kill.

the great thing about this game is that you learn to play each calss as you go along. currently im playing an adept, engineer, infiltrator and sentinel on insanity. when i get bored or stuck i just switch careers.

X-Wing: Rogue Squadron. Nice reference. I don't think you should go with Mynock though. Do I have a better idea? No... But here's a nickname for your Shepard since you like Avalanche and cryo so much.

Frostitute.


Don't pretend like you don't like it.

Edit: Actually I do have a name for your drone. Leeroy.

Haha. Frostitute. Leeroy is great too. And I'm glad you picked up on the X-Wing references. I don't know if he ever says thats the name of his droid in the n64/gamecube games but yes I was referencing the books. Also, TIE fighter was my first computer game. But before this gets derailed too much, I'm going to have a name by the collector ship mission.
