Kandros here with another Gold solo video adventure from Andromeda. We call our resident Angara Exemplar Sting because he looks like a giant bumblebee; his black and yellow combat uniform suits his moniker well. He’s excellent at causing tech bursts with his electric barricade, overload and energy drain. Shortly after Viridin returned from Firebase Sandstorm, Sting came to me to with a proposal to smoke out the mole. He suggested sending him alone to Sandstorm while I monitored all outgoing communications.
I agreed but warned him about his loadout choice. "Don’t you want to bring Viridin’s Rozerad Siphon with you?" I asked him. "Isharay! To touch Kett weapons would dishonor my family." he replied. "At least take this fine Ushior X with you." He agreed to do so on one condition. "When I get back, I want that Siphon augment upgrade for it." I told him that our requisitions officer, Lieutenant RNG would look into it, but no guarantees.
Sure enough, shortly after he arrived on Firebase Sandstorm, I picked him a communications from deep inside the Nexus to a Kett stronghold outside the system. I’m getting closer to identifying the mole, but I need more time. 30 minutes is all Sting needed to ward off seven waves of Kett before we picked him up. He looked at me, nodded, and told me, "You were right for me to take the Ushior." "Where was your Isharay?" I asked him, to which he responded, "I left it on Firebase Sandstorm. Tell me more about this weapon from your galaxy, the Javelin."
"Ah yes, the mighty Javelin. A story for another day," I patted him on the back as we retired to the mess hall for some well-deserved dextro-protein stew.

Gameplay notes:
Feramar! Isharay is terrible on Gold with enemy shield gate, not enough damage per shot, and a horribly long reload time. I only used it near the end of waves or when I had to siphon my health back from enemies. I really could use that Ushior Siphon! Or Phasic Rounds!
I tried to solo this dozens of times on Firebase Aqua against all factions. Terrible objectives of Hack and Upload over and over. Even when I got Devices or Retrieval, they were in a place where enemies just rushed me to no end. So, once again, it was time to go back to Sandstorm. This is turning out to be like Techno Turian’s Firebase White videos (although TT does Platinum, which is pretty much impossible for me).
Till now, I haven’t used the Ushior that much, but reminds me of the Paladin from ME3MP. Small magazine, but accurate and packs a big punch.

I just have the tendency to be on the super cautious side and solos tend to run forever due to obsessive kiting.
