Lows: - I could've and should've planned better my nuke strategy during N5.I. That would help me achieve sub 30 run. But you never know if you'll have targets or devices on wave 10. At this point I think I won't get that sub 30 run in the series, which is sad. - Vorcha vs. Cerberus. I don't like Vorchas in general. I can play them with friends and still have fun, but do a solo? Kill Phantrolls on host? Nope, thank you. Also to my misery I lost like 2-3 mins during W10 clean up. Two enemies stucked very high, near reactor. I used missile blindly so I had to work my butt off to kill them. I think that last Phantom fell off the map eventually. - Didn't achieve 10 WS with my Cabal also is it just me, or Carnifex is weird. It feels weak, like not every shot registeres properly.. I usualy don't use it if I don't have to. Future: - N6 should be fun. At least I think it will be, as I like Fat Turian and Drell Infiltrator. Ash on the other hand... I did this challenge on my potato laptop. Didn't record it from obvious reasons. So my OCD will force me to redo it, just for the video's sake. Maybe I'll use Mattock for a change. If I decide to use a macro, I'll not submit it. But still upload it. In 5.II the Phantoms weren't that bad if you could get them to charge you because then you can shoot Sub-net at the floor and it'll trap them, just make sure the bitch isn't targeted to avoid her bubble. Once they're trapped a quick headshot followed by an Incinerate tech burst was enough to finish them off. TechnoTurian's video of 5.II is a really good showcase of how to play it. I used the same strategy and it was really effective. Also, for whatever reason sometimes I had Atlases dying from two or three Sub-nets I'm not really sure how that happened, but I sure didn't complain. N6 up to Ash was pretty fun. I hate Vancouver, but with a decent nuking strategy I could've cut about 5 or 10 minutes off of my time and if you get devices on 6.II just quit lol. Imo the Carnifex is a gun, much like the Saber, that suffers from a lot of bloom if you start approaching its max rate of fire. I'm not saying that's why your shots weren't hitting, but it's the most likely reason. You just see how big that crosshair (can't really call it a reticle) gets as you approach max RoF and that's when RNG takes over and the bullet can hit anywhere inside it making it much less accurate at distance than you would expect. Actual DPS is most likely better at 3/4 max RoF than at max just because bloom won't be so bad.

The Doctors' team a.k.a. proudly presents: Themed Duo Challenges 2 Set 3 - The Reapers are RealII. Space Whaling Inc. (Insanity)38:21 - TheDoctor46N7 | DocSteelySet 10 - Full Extent of Our SuperiorityI. Altahe (Insanity)32:04 - TheDoctor46N7 | DocSteelyI. Hack - Escort - Devices II. Devices - Devices - Retrieval Two difficult challenges, first one because Vorcha (which I played and hated!), weapons and map, second because map compensated by the awesomeness of characters. Despite mobility (to which I added AM3) and health regen, Vorcha are not very fun on gold or plat. You constantly have to double (triple) check enemy lines of fire, because one crab shot can and will down you. As for the second, Condor remains the most difficult map on platinum, because you do not have a lot of options to hide. 5WS was required which we managed without too much trouble 'cuz Krogan. I think I first died on W8, because Drone stagger and the most difficult wave for me was 9 because Phantrolls. Now, for the last challenge (and imo the most difficult), on to my most hated map - Dagger Hazard...

The Doctors' team a.k.a. proudly presents: Themed Duo Challenges 2 Set 10 - Full Extent of Our SuperiorityII. Nepmos (Insanity)34:06 - TheDoctor46N7 | DocSteelyRetrieval - Devices - Retrieval. The only description I can find for this challenge is barf-inducing... Not only you choose this nightmarish map, but you force one of the characters to use cryo ammo (logically I took one for the team), and I'm really sorry but have you tried stopping a phantroll on host plat with cryo ammo on a Valkyrie? Yes, you guessed right, you can't. Anyhow with that, gents, the second part of the themed duo challenges is completed. For the nth time, probably not the last, I want to thank TheDoctor46N7 (a.k.a. muahmuah) for putting up with my scrubiness throughout this series. IT WAS FUN!!!

The Doctors' team a.k.a. proudly presents: Project Blackwatch Duo MissionsI. Marksman Raid (Insanity)26:30 - TheDoctor46N7 | DocSteelyII. Just a Couple of Mercs (Insanity)36:39 - TheDoctor46N7 | DocSteelyIII. Legacy (Insanity)39:23 - TheDoctor46N7 | DocSteely (v)I'll spare you the details of the objectives: suffice to say we had devices in all of these runs... As I already mentioned it before, the logical way for us to get through has been to give TheDoc the role of damage dealer; which meant that for all of these challenges I had to play nonturian chars. For the first two challenges I got the QMS and the Talon Merc. I am comfortable playing them on Gold, but I've never before played them on platinum; IMO neither of these characters is platinum worthy, except when played by masters (see ex-Clusum's videos for examples) which I am not. The last one was supposed to be the funny one; except I've complicated our lives by using 2 uncalled for nukes on W9; ofc we got W10 Targets. Overall I found this series of duos not funny at all.

Oh btw, I'm starting to play ME3 MP again and I'm looking for players to do themed challenges, duo, trio or full team.
So if you play on PC , range anywhere from total scrub to N°1ProPlayer and are interested let me know !
Doctors, I'm not sure if I have you both on Origin but seeing as you're single-handedly keeping this thread running I'm counting on you two to carry me into this adventure. Steely I'll add you if I haven't already (and wether you like it or not).

I may have some spare time this weekend to try to get it otherwise I may skip and come back to it like I did with N2.III so I can shake up the monotiny and try something new.

N7 Challenge Series (GOLD)N6 - The Scope of PerspectiveI. Garrus' Calibrations Part 2 - Archangel44:07 - Sonashii (268 634 pts)II. Next of Kin40:18 - Sonashii (202 492 pts) [v]N7 - Spectre Eligible I. The Shepard Clone's War, Part 3 - Spectre Status Recognized39:27 - Sonashii (264 348 pts)II. End Scene30:58 - Sonashii (261 041 pts)And with that ladies and gentlemen I'm ending my N7 Series run. Finally I should say. I have the footage for both N7 challenges but first one was recorded on my potato laptop, where I lost 1st half of wave 10, and my London video lost a couple of seconds due to some stupid updates that my pc have been doing during the recording (had to restart recording like 3 times, so there is a couple of chops, so it looks like shiet). So I will upload them eventually but they are not worth submitting. I haven't decided if I'm redoing Ariake but if I do then I'm not uploading whole thing. We'll see what the next couple of days will bring me, coz they will be stressful as hell So I'm glad I managed to finish this series. I'm not a solo player, by any means. Thank you guys for your support, suggestions and kind words. Anyone who's in the middle of his run - I wish you good luck, and just be patient. I know I wasn't.

So I think I truly earned my King of PUGS title Thank you guys, I appreciate your kind words! Although I think my soloing days are over. I did this series mostly to prove to myself that I'm capable of doing it, nothing more, nothing less. Now probably I'll take a short brake from challenges. I want to enjoy those pug games with friends Here's my personal ranking, made based on my experience with N7 series: TOP 5 Favourites:1. N5.I Bray-Fist; 2. N3.I Chooser of the Slain; 3. N5.III Retake Omega Part 3 - The Intangible is Unstoppable; 4. N4.I Servant of the People; 5. N3.III Awaking the Eye of Wrath; I chose this challenges mostly because of fun and satisfaction I had during/after completing those runs TOP 5 4 PITA runs:1. N2.III Pull-ups; 2. N6.III Ash; 3. N7.I The Shepard Clone's War, Part 3 - Spectre Status Recognized; 4. N5.II Kill Them!; 5. None of the rest challenges gave me that many bad memories... well, maybe Resolve of the Shadowbroker but it wasn't that bad tbh. Of course those are my choices, I bet anyone else would come up with different lists What's next on the table? I don't know yet, I shall check presta's site and we'll see. Anyways - Sona signing off Sometimes it's better to share the burden.

I didn't say the character wasn't great or weapon wasn't good etc. Am I not allowed to have my own opinion? I just don't remember it as fun as I would like it to be. That's it. I don't have to like everything you do, right?
