Interrupt melee how? Do they just stagger you back?

And for the record, it'll mostly just mean people switching over to the Black Widow, if they have it. It was only a mark or two behind the Vanquisher. But at least the Widow is something like double the weight of the Vanq so the opportunity cost of lugging it is a little more balanced.

RBA Starblade posted:Considering how bad the soft cover system is I figured Barricade would suck but then I played Sentinel and surprise it's great. It's good for locking down Berserkers, drop one in a doorway and watch the dumb Krogan who can't jump sit there like a dumbass.

RBA Starblade posted:Did the patch fix anyone of the network issues at least? It feels a little better, but I've only played two games so far. Of course Vanquisher was bugged, it was a rare that was objectively better by a wide margin than its UR counterpart. Every enemy so far has felt like they took an across the board 20% health nerf in the two Bronze Apex Missions I've done. I'm going to do the silver and gold ones and see if I'm just imagining things.

The Kroguard's rage effect seems to be blue now? Bronze did feel a bit easier. Enemies seemed to die quicker even if I didnt feel any more powerful

If I'm reading these balance changes right the Predator pistol is better than a Mattock in terms of damage and fire rate. And only weighs 3 lbs. compared to 19 lbs.

Zikan posted:lol that explains quite a bit It explains why my goddamn damage modeling couldn't explain why the vanquisher was 1 shotting gold raiders with a head shot. It's still super competitive to the black widow, and should pull ahead with 25% gun damage bonus. The next breakpoint on the black Widow is like 80% gun damage bonus, so great for turbocharged soldiers who want to 1 hit bodyshot kill a Chosen.

Some other benefits to the Mattock, but yeah, less damage and fire rate. Going from Predator to Mattock, both at X: 66 (-10) Damage 405 (-45) RoF 16 (+1) Max mag size 350 (+121) Max ammo 75 (+10) Accuracy 13 (+10) Weight E: Note this is on a human adept with 5% weapon damage bonus, so numbers aren't completely stock. E2: Accurate damage numbers are 63 (-9) Av027 fucked around with this message at 21:02 on Apr 6, 2017 |

Whatever they did to the reload animations made the Charger reload substantially quicker. I'm also almost certain enemies have less health, Silver also felt significantly easier than it did pre-patch. Kett are still cancer tho. Edit: pre-patch Ruzad IV made level 20 novaguard very slightly overweight. Now it's just under par.

Digirat posted:Yeah because it's all the devs tested on. You'll just be getting less money. So do you want to have fun or do you want to get money? Based on an estimated ultra rare rate of 25% from expert packs and 180 unique instances of ultra rare items, you'll just need 72 million credits to max out everything, or 7.2 thousand bronze games where everyone makes it to the extraction! Up and at em, tiger! at 13 minutes per match, a mere 65 continuous days of gameplay

Gold didn't feel any different. The reload thing is in the patch notes. None of the other weapons I've used seem to have different weights but I didn't check closely. Also it's not a new map it's just the map they've been using for the special weekly missions. I really wish they'd put it in regular rotation.

If all you want is the multiplayer, I'd just get me3 honestly. I think this game has the potential to be real good, and the higher mobility is lots of fun, but the MP isn't worth $60 when me3 is much cheaper. Not yet anyway.

You can also safely cheatengine in millions of credits to give yourself everything in mass effect 3, if you just want to screw around while you wait for bioware to make the remaining 90% of the content be gold viable in andromeda

Beat Gold on my first try! Human Vanguard level 14 with Bastion and a Charger VIII. Bastion is broken as gently caress. I punched out a destroyer and picked up comrades while three or four guys were shooting me in the face thanks to it. I didn't even level up, despite using an xp booster. I don't like how slow leveling is now. Especially since it's per character and not per class.

Played three gold games post patch, human vanguard is still fine. Played with the new salarian and kept trying to charge the VI the first few waves.

My friends and I just cleared gold on our first attempt. We're all level 15 ish with varying gear and skill levels so it got a bit hairy, but it was fun as hell. I'm really.loving the N7 Valiant sniper rifle, just sucks it's gonna take ages to rank up since it's an ultra rare.

I don't know, I'd lean towards the hosed it up even more side considering everyone was like "melee is ok but guns and powers should be closer to on par as it" and they took it as "melee needs a nerf and guns barely need anything, also gently caress powers in general".

Alteisen posted:Interrupt melee how? Do they just stagger you back? Yeah basically. I have not yet had any enemy other than Nullifiers do it, but I imagine others can. They can throw one melee out for every two of yours and because your melee animation locks you in you can't dash circle strafe around them in between hits. If you use Bastion you can just charge them when your shields break and then keep booping them tho. It just makes Nullifiers an unattractive melee target if they're around other enemies.
