Unless you're a Krogan

Phantoms trying to tangle with my Krogan Soldier find out why trying to outmelee a Krogan in close-quarters combat is universally a bad idea.

Also depending on your class and loadout Phantoms are actually quite easy to kill. If you have an Asari Adept for example you can just Stasis a Phantom and do what you will with it.

They're still one of the few enemies in the ME franchise that keeps me on my toes

When has getting into melee range of a Krogan ever been a good idea.

Did a game with full infiltrators , we could made it to wave 7 on Gold. Just a deadly mistake can kill the whole team.

Tried downloading ME3 on PC from origin and surprisingly it runs as smooth as butter, although the game freezes every 5-6 minutes and I have to restart my computer. Tweaked various options, even updating graphic drivers, and still no dice. Should I try re-downloading again? Anyone else had these issues?

Question to anyone who's playing inflitrator: Which of the tac cloak end bonuses is better? Double power seem great but does it let me shoot twice, or only restricted to powers? The +40% rifle damage is pretty kickass too.

Crimrui · 2012-02-17, 16:26

Playing with a Vanguard was never so much fun.

Hahaha oh my god XD why no weird femshep faces? XD

I am playing as infiltrator, but I haven't gotten the double bonus yet. But I would choose +40% rifle, the duration is decent already so I don't think making it longer is worth it. However though during a hacking segment of the mission a 40% duration might be useful.

After playing as Salarian infiltrator I found out Tactical cloak+energy drain+sniper=amazing. Through energy drain I stun them and now since they are wide open I just snipe them very easily. I found out this is very useful taking out Centurion, Nemesis, and Engineer. Now the trouble is those pesky Phantom...
The multiplayer very fun and much better than I thought it would be.

Better take +40% rifle yeah , cuz the duration is really short + you'll need it on Silver & specially Gold , bronze is piece of cake.
And also you can remove your pistol , imo , i don't use it & never used it , you'll only shoot with Snipe , throw grenade & do some melee action + the duration is even more shorter , like instant.

Question: is sniper time in multiplayer? I can imagine having one player temporarily slow down time would cause syncing issues.

MeoTwister5 · 2012-02-17, 20:39

I play Infiltrator and no sniper time.

Time-dilation effects on abilities are removed from MP. Thus time doesn't slow down when using a Sniper Rifle as an Infiltrator, the Soldier's Adrenaline Rush only increases damage, and Vanguard's don't slow down time after a Biotic Charge impact.

Speaking of abilities, I noticed that you no longer need Warp to initiate a Biotic Explosion. Pull can now also be combo'd with other biotic abilities to detonate, and even Biotic Charge can now be used to do so

MeoTwister5 · 2012-02-17, 23:35

It's funny watching Vanguards charge into an affected formation and watching all of them get blown away.

Terrestrial Dream · 2012-02-17, 23:50

Who here is playing on pc? Oh and energy drain, more damage or increase in radius? I went with radius but after playing I wonder if it is worth it to invest in damage because of Atlas.

Interestingly enough, Adrenaline Rush seems to speed you up, or at least that was what it seemed to me; my firing rate and movement speed picked up as well as damage every time I used it.

I'm on the PC. Also, I'm thinking damage as well for the Atlas. You're not really going to see shielded enemies bunched up too much.

What the hell kind of poster is that?

Shepard running after a Reaper, destroying a house, in the middle of nowhere. The last level of the game I take it?

Kyero Fox · 2012-02-18, 09:42
