21:00 - Sonashii [v] | frank_is_crank [v]

That's completely not true! It was the other way around actually. Frank started to act weird. He was running around Glacier, looking for something. Look!

Saturday and 2 Challenges? (Because something about 'wrong' Galaxy, Football and just not there ):


Hamletic's Tales from the Trenches

Week 4: Sur'Kesh

II. A Million Ways to Die (and the Bloodpack Knows Them All) (Hardcore)

25:37 - fraggle | Balbock

Delivery / Hack / Targets

A million ways are far too many for just one game. Therefore we did that twice. Just because (and not because I forgot the Pistol Kill Medal. ) Oh, and the Killstreak also needed some time... Wave 21 to be precise (or Wave 10 of the second attempt). Somehow the Reapers refused to spawn in a big enough cluster for the killstreak in both attempts, therefore I was trying to herd a bunch of Ravagers and Brutes together in wave 10, while fraggle went for the Banshees, that spawned somewhere else alone. But with a bit of luck the third set of them spawned close to me and teleported right into the group... One Rocket later we had the last missing Medal and only one target left.
Other than the struggle for the Killstreak we had a good time there. Keeping track of all the needed medals is something different to most other games.


Week 5: For Tuchanka

II. Non-Conventional Tactics (Hardcore)

23:18 - fraggle | Balbock

Delivery / Delivery / Delivery

Non-Conventional Tactics? What?
A close to unkillable Krogan, who pulls all the enemies' attention, while a Shadow has an easy picking. That is more of a conventional tactic... Or at least should be!
I can't really say a whole lot more about this one. Just that it was a great and fun game and that a big group of Geth after the Wave 10 Pizza just asked for a Rocket. And they got it.

Well done, holy crap!

I haven't tried 5.2 again in days, maybe over a week.

:salute:

congrats Ninja !
But we loose a bit of the pleasure of discussing your progress and stuff with that kind of massive sub !

C'mon guys,this particular challenge is one of the easiest in the series on gold.I hate vorchas,but they have health regen and if you use adrenaline module,all vorchas are very survivable.You have net,so the phantrolls are very easy.Exe pistol+tech brusts kills an atlas for seconds.Also reactor is not the hardest map.This of course is just my opinion.

lol, failed twice to "fuck it" at w6 devices cause mainly i had not so much ops anymore nor 3 WS.
lol i have been heavily trolled.
I tried the full net build to copy pffeferi and TTT, so ended up 66653. That electrical field is supposed to stop mooks ?
Maybe i missed smtg in da build, because it stuned one guy, once in 12 waves... Then i had few mishots, i dont have them usually with the executioner.
also, device every fu**** obj waves
then i used to inci cheese on that build, but on gold, vs mooks faction DA is much better

still enjoyed my time.

Kill goons, then devices. There's 3 total on w3 and 6 on wave 6+. Phantoms love to chase, throw a subnet straight down to catch her while kiting, hit with incinerate for TB, then shoot dead. I like Power Amp on him instead of AMIII, but I'm a scrub and nowhere near as skilled as muah or TTT so take it with a grain of salt.

Thanks doc 

Adrenaline is the big difference maker. Situational Vorcha mobility abuse; forgive me for being stubborn.

I have this one now, just need to find a way to survive wave 7 better. 5 waves survived in each of my last two attempts, just quick fails after that but IDC, the plan has been formed.

The really interesting thing - after a week off from it, all of a sudden SubNet on the floor seems to work half the time, instead of looking like I just tossed jizz everywhere.

I gave it another try yesterday, well 2, cause i sucked hard on the first one.

I installed the Geforce Nvidia stuff to record without MSI, that was long and painfull (updates and 500 MB downloads of drivers driver , and ...) but god this works wonder, i can now record and play at 60 FPS with full rez ! Lol, no idea what magic is behind that, i thought i already updated manually those drivers

N7 challenge serie gold
N5 II Kill Them ! (redo)
28:14 - Alfonsedode (291 562 pts) (v)

First i must apologize as the recording decided to split it in 3 files. Tried to put them together twice with movie maker, took like 2 hours each time to load the vids and 2 hours to save them, and none of them was a readable vid in the end

With that new rez and feeling, maybe my mouse is not moving the same, or it s just that i m still a scrub, but i indeed had trouble to stay alive, and had to kite far more than i used to do on other challenges with that combo. I thought it was very very long, so good surprise its faster than my previous redo. I scrubbed 5 to 10 situations but it was fun !
The full net felt useless again, so full fitness if i ever redo. And indeed, the executioner is really unreliable ! I think it s also a high fps related problem, as i never had that (and i grinded the hunter executioner solo of the weekly 1 serie)

Edit : weapon bonus damage in Bloodlust puts out of balance at times, when u expect a killing shot and get a very alive mooks on your toe . Or even executioner damage are unreliable ?

Well done!

I had a good attempt last night. My aim was excellent, but my survival instinct was weak. That goes hand in hand for me, and then all of a sudden the Executioner shoots blanks 3 times in a row and I die in a really stupid (and in all other situations hilarious) way.

I look forward to watching, thank you for another example. Your time is good, and is where I want to be, so this is great
