just got a silver-edged respec in a vet pack, looks like thats def in
also tried the eagle again given the buff: not quite as terrible as i remember, but still completely fucking abysmal. and that was on a turian soldier, with marksman, against dudes softened up with prox mines
fuck the eagle forever, cannae wait for an eagle iv in my commendation pack
I don't think they can do the male quarians, at least not for Infiltrator and Engineer, because Bioware is pretty consistant with there being no statistical differences between males and females in their games. Any new Quarian Engineer worth getting excited about DLC over will have to be better than the female one, because the female one is extremely corner-case and really not all that good (though I enjoy playing her cryo/incinerate combo to see X-mas explosions).
They could dodge that bullet by doing males of different classes (Soldiers? Sentinels? Do quarians even have biotics?).
I honestly think they meant Turians, instead. Turian Engineers and Infiltrators. That way people get to play Garrus in this DLC like they were able to play Wrex in the last. Turians are also known for their engineering skill (largest combat fleet in the galaxy, and all).
Male Quarians should have all anti-shield moves with no way to deal with armor.

I realized I play this game solely to fill up the bars on my MP Manifest.
And that I'll pretty much only play during challenge weekends now or during Error 37s on that other game.
so i am pretty damn HYPE after making the amazing discovery that my justicar can have her 40% DR bubble, 175 DPS area reave, AND WIELD A REVENANT X all with 175% cooldowns
she is the QUEEN of holding the line

That tiny damage boost makes me feel so much better about this
Plus when your personal goal actively conflicts with the community goal (who is going to do Reapers on Gold for a full extraction when they can just do GWG?), you're already kneecapping the chances of success.
And a sizable portion of the playerbase (majority even?) is unable to complete Gold at all. Kind of dumb to require full extraction on Gold when you're trying to get casual players back into the game. Their best solution would be to come up with a new type of goal for these weekends that isn't just "kill x". The only other kind has been the promotion weekend.
I'm honestly to the point where I'm goign to play a few more promotions worth of matches and then I may stop, confident that i don't need to worry about Galactic Readiness anymore.
After that you hsould all be prepared to talk about the Single Player again, as we had been doing for years before the beta landed.
pretty nifty on a turian soldier, but i only really just ~got~ how useful proxy mines are in the past couple days and i can barely stand to pop marksman any more. that time could be spent launching two more proxy mines! but the hurricane is so much fun i cannae DECIIIIIIIIDE
I also agree pairing a gold with a banshee weekend was a dumb idea. I mean I hardly like playing reapers on silver, I can't imagine gold makes them anymore fun.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
Funny how the Hurricane went from useless to desirable after a buff and when people actually figured out how to use it properly (i.e. on a Stability Turian).
I wonder if the Eagle will eventually get to that point.

I just played a match with someone who had PAs in his tag
I wonder if he was from around here?
I hope not, because he did an excellent job of quitting when things looked bad and leaving us screwed over for the next round
The events are only every other weekend now, right? Meaning that it's going to take an ungodly amount of time to get N7 weapons (to say nothing of upgrades) for those of us who didn't start MP until recently.
Also, any idea why the N7 Valkyrie AR isn't included in MP at all?
I'd really like them to make the Premium Veteran packs permanent, just because I still need to fill out my uncommon weapons and would like to do it at a discount.

Becuase it's not a real 'N7' weapon anymore. I suspect that it originally was based on color scheme/style/name, but the CE 'N7 weapon pack' has no AR and the Valkyrie was turned into a preorder exclusive.
Picking apart weapons packs for the sake of preorder bonuses. Just another reason EA is such a widely loved developer!

For what it's worth, it's going to take forever for all of us. Those who just started MP are only 3 weapons/upgrades behind. And there's at least one poor soul out there who has been playing MP from the beginning and is about to get an Eagle IV this week.
I don't think the Hurricane was ever actually useless. I didn't have it in MP back when people were complaining about it (I did have it in single player where I loved it with the same stats), but even looking back at its original damage it still outclassed the rest of the SMGs provided you were close-range. I think people just didn't want to put up with its crazy pre-adjusted recoil/were trying to use it farther than 10 feet away. It went from a situationally decent weapon to a situationally excellent weapon.
As for the Eagle, well...it's basically what you use if you want to only use an SMG and be prepared for armor, and don't have the Hurricane.

Oh man. I can't wait for my other Quarian Engi with Cryo Blast, Cryo Blast, and Cryo Blast.
I will call him, Mr. Freeze.
Also, I'd play multiplayer more often but I really never know what they have for the weekend events until I look here. I didn't even know about the last operation till Monday.
Yeah... getting pretty stale with just geth/reaper/cerberus.
I have to imagine that they're waiting to present the new factions along with the single player DLC so they can use 'em for SP missions (mercs/mechs for Omega, maybe Collectors for a Prothean, er, I mean "Phoenix" DLC).
By demanding "clarification"
(we didn't),
we may have pushed back all of those efforts, because they're too busy clarifying.

no wait, it doesn't. :?
the valiant I is so good already
I'd just as soon try out the buffed crusader or hurricane for a change
because I don't have a Valiant!
murderizing everything with a valiant and tripling people's scores starts to get boring after seven or eight hours

Probably have to wait till this weekend and contact EA. Maybe they'll give me another "oops, sorry" pack of 300k credits.
