got my Batguard to rank IX. spent a little over 4 million credits. he seems pretty underwhelming on platinum, but then again, I was ranking him up so he was pretty gimped. He is not as good as I expected him to be. His passives really need something special (free recharge speed)and he needs the extra 20% debuff his annihilation field is missing. Not your fault. The kit probably feels better in Gold just like Asari Vanguard. BatVan must be near impossible to die in Gold.. but Platinum is just different league. As it turns out, not really. The extra cooldown on charge really hurts, and he doesn't have DR or I-frames like the other vanguards. The shield steal on kill isn't very reliable, and his base shields are lower than the Asari adept so it doesn't even do that much. And no barrier tree means no saving barrier or shield steal on melee.

Wow, 3 recycled powers on a scraper variant as a UR. Meh.
Scrapper should have been UR and this character Rare.

Our playtime will be dwindling soon Loving it but its a very long grind. Not pay to win (as its coop) but I bought the $150 deluxe edition then dropped another $100 on the hero upgrade edition to get 8 legendary heros. Becomes tons of fun once you get out of the first quest (too easy--really a long tutorial) but its starting to bottleneck a bit at the end of quest two. Resources are hard to come by but its definitely something I will play for the next few years slowly. I'll be on it until COD. Can't even look at Andromeda anymore. Even if they dropped 10 characters and 10 new weapons the thought of grinding for them makes me cringe. If you are going to take the plunge I can save you $20. I can sell you a code for half price if you want one. I have 3 left and its $40 to play. Sold one for $20 already. The $250 version of the early access comes with 4 codes for friends. I also spent $100 on V bucks. My A team from Andromeda is all on fortnite wrecking shit LOL we all bought the $250 edition...

Another UR poorly built for platinum. AF debuff is only 20%. Scrapper with snap and flak is better. Asari Adept and AFwith saving barrier and 40% debuff and quicker combos that do more damage is better. Its a fun Gold novelty character and another example of poor balance. If you can't see that you must be stuck in a dev's but with JRandall.

It's like they went out of their way to make sure this character wouldn't be good. Fun way to clear trash on gold but that's about it.

I've never had a VIDEO GAME get me salty before this one so my apologies...its just a game but I committed a lot of time and $$$ based on how much I enjoyed 3 and my 4 year wait for this one and there was soo much disappointment and broken shit. I feel like I had Stockholm syndrome while playing this the whole time in hindsight. We were talking in party playing fortnite the other day and all concluded the party chat is the only thing that really kept us playing for so long...

I'm with you completely on that. If my posts generally haven't made clear, I'm very frustrated. I was eagerly awaiting something that built from where ME3 left off but would have been plenty happy with the same for another go around. Instead it takes giant leaps backwards in so many ways.

Thought this guy will be the best character of two games - 3MP and AMP. But it seems I made no mistake uninstalling this game last week. Only character I waited is actually just meh... Not gonna download 47GB to play him. Bye bye

It's been 2 months now and I don't have either the Shorty or the Batguard. I've played every day and bought 1-3 Premium/Arsenal Packs every day and nothing. Whatta joke.

I wonder if there's any road to satisfaction left. If there is, I'm really curious as to the applied definition of 'satisfaction'.
Cos' I try and I try but...

To help with this, the Batguard is absolute garbage and you'll probably abandon it after a few games in disappointment. I don't have the shorty. I've heard it had good dps but I honestly can't see it replacing any of my rare Siphon shotguns.

I've heard it had good dps but I honestly can't see it replacing any of my rare Siphon shotguns. It was better even at mid ranks than my Siphon Dhan, IMO. At high ranks, it's monstrous. At IX it weighs 25, IIRC, so I had to consciously avoid putting it on everything. I especially enjoyed it on the asari and human adepts. Prime -> empty Shorty with Off Biotics damage-taken debuff -> detonate. Melts Plat bosses at a rate nearly on par with Scrapper/human Soldier (and a much more enjoyable playstyle than nadespam, at least to my sensibilities).
