i had a very nice rio plat cerb with pugs. Was hosting with the DA talon slayer, and despite rio, it worked like a charm. Pugs did not score well but were clearly pulling weight and not dying, at all ! And i fear lag was horrible, cause i had frame drops ... . the juggy was using cryo ammo siege pulse spam quite efficiently

Back on PS3 for the first time in a year, it's hard to differentiate between highs and lows. On checking my N7HQ stats I see I've played 19 games over the past few days. 18 of these have resulted in successful extractions, with the other match lasting the single second it took for me to register that we had landed on Ghost Hazard against Collectors. I was host, and feel a little guilty about quitting, but it is a simple, slightly sad fact that the greatest challenge to me not making Gold extractions comes from hardware limitations rather than lack of skill. I had already endured a hard freeze post-extraction from Goddess the day before and am doing what I can to preserve the life of my plucky little PS3. The loss of frames is genuinely shocking at times, but I still love the game and was heartened to run into a few old-timers who've apparently been holding the line in my absence.
I played a game last night accompanied by two players with combined CP over 200k. One had the piercing mod on an ADAS and the other the similar mod on a GPS. To be fair, this 'stupidity' is the fault of Bioware rather than the players, but it made me reflect on the glory of BSN, where such loadout errors have been highlighted for so many years. Pity the poor pugs who never discover the depth of knowledge here.

Nice to see you in action again.Hope that you are much better now.
You can either fight at my side or get crushed under my heel, but you will not stand in my way

Great to see you back in action, bro Grunt! Hope you're doing well.

High: Tried the Mod Manager for the first time. Enabled a few tweaks, like headsplatting with almost any weapon. Finally I can blow a Nemesis indoctrinated brains onto a wall with a Disciple.
Still High: Joined Arkhne and Arktinen, who were playing modded waves of enemies Wave 10 suppa fast possessed A-Bomb rush is fun
Low: Crashed once
Lower: Both of them managed to kill me with A-Bomb splosions

Higher: I did that too
When you loaded in to our private lobby during a Geth match with a Black Widow, I figured you knew what you were in for. Took me a few waves to realize that you actually probably didn't. I hope you enjoyed the mod I use when not playing with a full BSN-lobby (you guys are all masochists who prefer sprinting Scions to mixed faction mayhem). All-abomb extraction after my toughest faction (Reapers) is always a good way to end the match, much better than that Silver Extraction from the first match
----
Later, we found a wild NinjaSuperiority, who always seems down for some modded mayhem. So we trioed.
High: Headsplattery for days
Low: Rolled Original White, hate that map so much. At least it was my easiest faction though. We all had shotguns.... of a sort. Arktinen had the mighty Talon GI, the enemies never stood a chance. NinjaSuperiority was a Flamerless Vorcha Soldier with the Eviscerator, enemies were eviscerated in more ways than one. And I had the decidedly OP QMI with the Crusader.
High: My loyal Krantt joined their Warlord, Princess, on a mission against Cerberus in a malfunctioning Reactor. Upon seeing the sheer bulk of our forces, Cerberus did the only thing they could do - Call in the other factions for support. At one point, I simply couldn't see through all the Pyro flames, Bomber spam, Rage overlay, Bleeding Overlay, and Abomb explosions at one point. It was a glorious bloodbath, and when the bloodrage had subsided, I found myself alone surrounded by a pile of corpses. The spirit of the Krogan was working through me, and the enemy stood no chance, particularly with the help of Arktinen's Sentinel locking them in the reactor with me. I stood my ground, and they fried around me. A true Warlord knows no fear.
Finale: My Krantt died a worthy death, so that I could return to tell the story of their glorious battle. Perhaps I put too much faith in them, maybe I overestimated their ability to hold off the Banshees, Phantoms, and Dragoons. when they went down at the start of wave 11, I had to do them justice and survive, to let the world know of their skill, valour, and noble sacrifice. They died Warriors of the highest worth, they will be remembered.
----
Highest: Returned from a break to play more games, it's been fun.
Lowest: Trollstore still hates me, not only no URs (still missing Spitfire, Wraith, and BPP, all of which I like), but Arsenal packs are even refusing to drop Weapon Mods and Gear, being totally convinced that what I need is more colouring options for my characters. I was on a streak of atleast 10 when I took a break, and I've opened at least 10 more since coming back, and not even a weapon mod.
High: Recently me and some other PUGs, decided to take part in the challenge called Arena. It was created by people on N7S Discord server and it basically boils down to playing all armax maps, against all factions. The team with shortest overall time wins. So far we've been doing good. A lot of trolling and scrubbing around. But in general, we are killing things. Of course imma our illustrious leader
So I don't know why those naabs tried to do this for me. I guess karma hit them hard, and couldn't do a thing! Now you know who's that AntonEffect
Well played @sonashi ! HIgh: Had a volsent UUP duo with vastator (i was promised "friends" ...). We ended up on ... condor geth !
At least vasta knows what he is doing with the trickiest ballgum. I took PPR 'cause it was a trend here, but ramp up and cooldowns are not good friends
Btw i fear i revived you right in the middle of a primed banshee and a phantom ? (followed a 10 15 min solo to end w9, cause i suck was cautious)

Yeah, i asked our new boy richharrison7 and another one but they declined, maybe they knew we would end up on Geth/Condor? Yep, PPR is good only on tanky/not power spamming chars that can keep that weapon on for a long time, with that ball you are always trying to stay alive with your heavy melee and shield boost and casting that exploding drones (why people rarely use it? It's so fun, especially against Ravagers and Phantoms!). Yeah, you revived me near a banshee(?), i guess you had a lot of fun soloing that wave with those staggering drones and that Phantom host DR GG, btw.

High: vastator invited me to a challenge for the N7 Squad with him and SenorZanahoria, its story was about escaping a Collector lab using their weapons. Remembered that Collectors had a big interest in quarians with disabilities so I brought the Marksman, for lore and for PPR overheat mitigation (I hate that weapon too...). Teamplay and spawn control were somewhere on the floor, I barely made use of Warp Ammo, which was bad without piercing, and guess what? We still finished 5 minutes faster than the second team
High: A little bored with my usual kits and weapon, I decided to use the knowledge I gained since last playing the Volus Adept to make it work. Equipped it with Saber, a weapon I haven't used since struggling to solo Silver, because I saw PowerDandy running it on this kit. Slapped Geth Scanner, AR amp II (been low on IIIs after multiple failed solo attempts), and an invitation from eng59land came. He was always inviting me into a lobby so I accepted immediately, expecting to just add the rest later. Instead, I landed with that volus without armor and ammo bonuses and with 4 ranks in Fitness at the first wave of a Jade/Geth/Platinum match. Thought about leaving and re-joining for a while but decided to stay. Our pugs weren't the best, always trying to rush the lower part; stopped trying to revive them after losing 2 gels on it. And we've done that match, despite getting hacks on both W3 and W6, which I spent almost entirely shooting down drone and sturrets, reviving pugs, spamming SB and shelling. Don't know if used Stasis once during that match, occupied with restoring shields and debuffing big uglies.
Low: Checked the scoreboard after W10 out of curiosity, which made me fuck up the first spawn and get hugged before the chaos was contained. Need to be more careful.
High: Games with Balbock , TopTrog and TM_Islander Or really, scratch that previous High (just kidding ) - Super High instead: I MAXED MY MANIFEST!!!
After 830hrs my last UR dropped today, can't believe it is over. Which means I'm gonna be rich soon and swim in Ops Packs. I love Ops Packs
The last missing UR was the Typhoon, so to celebrate, Baibai slapped this weapon on our Asari Justicars for a duo of great silly fun We got HReactor and Trollis, and I got a-bombed twice (even with the rocket... ) from my oh-so-kind teammate At least his plan to cook me failed thanks to the allmighty... OPS PACK, muahahaha
After a Claymore TSent duo and dinner break we played some more matches, with TopTrog and TM_Islander and it was so much fun! We played a fast and furious Fury match on Jade, almost sub20, with mean devices too, but we made it
Then the hate-surfing began and I laughed so much in this match, with some syncies here and there, dead and headless Reapers, and also 3WS TM left, but we had a trio in London against Cerberus then with Claymore HEngies, good times!
