Anyone for ME3 MP tomorrow evening ? Want to grind shit for the premium veteran pack. Might as well have fun while I'm at it.

Settled on Salarian Infiltrator. I mean, this is the ultimate comfort class. I can't imagine playing on higher difficulty with another. Cloaking damage bonus is way better than Soldier's Adrenaline rush simply because the cool down starts the moment you decloak. And Energy drain is shield boost when vs Geth complete with additional stun. The new Veteran Premium Pack 33k kept giving me guns. But still no Asari Adept. Also, I cannot get used to class with no roll/dodge moves. It seems strange shuffling slowly when rockets are flying. Basically running around with Raptor VIII and Phalanx VIII now on Silvers to buy VP Packs till I max both and hopefully unlock all classes.

For all intents and purposes, I treat the Mattock and Raptor as equal, except the Mattock needs scope attachment to be effective, while Raptor runs around with 235 ammo capacity and barrel mod. Oh, also +40% Sniper Rifle damage when decloaking.

:yeah:
Have you tried Widow/Black Widow/Javelin? That's where the Infiltrator goes beast IMO. I "only" have the widow, which allows me to one shot kill most normal troops with energy drain + body shot combo, and tear through armor damn quickly even on gold. You have to get used to the reload time, but it syncs up with cloak cooldown nicely.
Meh, don't really feel like it. Especially not with performancefags like taplonpapapaaplo. :smug:
What can i say... just lookin at the Geth Pulse Rifle makes me:rage:

I am recently discovering the beauty of playing infiltrator. All would be fine and dandy if I had access to good sniper rifles. As luck would have it, I am stuck with Raptor I :( I am first melee sniper in the history of Quarians.

I like to think that high ROF gives good returns on the Disruptor Ammo equipment vs geths.
What disruptor does is a chance to stun geths per hit as well as fucking up their shield. This is quite invaluable when paired with such a stable, rapid-firing Raptor that doubles as an Assault Rifle in close range. Widow I only currently, can't get used to the slow reload. I kept getting fucked by geth pyro when missing a shot. Not my style, I guess.

If we can "fight like a Spartan", we'd better be able to **** like a Spartan.

Here's my advice for anyone who wants to do gold runs:

- Bring at least one infiltrator. They can out-damage any class and are really good for reviving people in tight spots. (Like someone said above, Salarian infiltrators are the best because they can remove shields and have a bonus to sniping.)

- Adepts are pretty much necessary. If you're speccing your adept, make sure to give it stasis bubble and a couple of points in warp (good against larger targets).

- Try to bring a class that can deal with the larger targets like Atlases and Brutes. Otherwise, you'll regret using your cobra missile before you really need it.

- For the love of god, wait until you're level 20. Please? Less talent points = less damage output and health.

Alright, I'm done. Hope this helps!

I use the reload time to look around to prevent surprise pyros from doing that, but i have to admit i don't usually play against the geth especially on gold. Ever since the hunters got buffed they're causing a lot of problems since they can no longer be 1 shotted and wasting a widow round on 2 bars of shield just feels wrong.

I'm almost done with the 33k Crates. Not sure if I should keep buying. I have Raptor X, Phaeson X, Mattock VII, Phalanx IX, Tempest X.
Does it even have a chance to give Revenant / Salari Adept? It's still sitting at Revenant II - Not as good as Phaeson for Marksman Turian.

I'm still not confident on going for gold with public teams. Seeing silver team refusing to use rockets and medigels to bring themselves up lowers my faith in humanity.

Better wait until Bioware introduce their Ultimate ShepHARD DLC, with remastered beam colours in the ending and immersive in-game real money microtransactions to reload your rocket launcher.

Yes it has, i got an asasri adept (again) from it yesterday.

I had quite some success with public gold lately, but i'm rather picky in the lobby screen and won't try my chances with teams that look destined to fail. I roll with asari/drell adept or salarian infiltrator so it's usually not that bad since these are pretty much the most OP classes in the right setup.

I'm gonna be holding back on specter pack till next tuesday, i hope for a premium specter pack or something else useful. Getting a reset power and a quarian engineer for 60k is a joke.

He didn't mean it like that Ulmi. What you basically get, if you already had the same character is literally a fucking ass paint. Whee, now your quarian butt can change color.
So instead of a sweet new gun or upgrades, we gain cosmetic upgrades. Like it fucking matters.

Bioware should make a type of crate that costs ONE MILLION CREDITS (or $10) and has a 10% chance of unlocking a new romance renegade interrupt.

Nice run bro. My fingers need to rest. Maybe I shd reconsider going gold. Raptor is a finger killer...seeing those 3 Atlases...made me miss my sentinel biotic spam.
