What's the most recent build/set up that you've discovered?

I plead guilty. I'm one of those recon mine junkies myself. Heck I even pass on adrenaline module in favor of a power amplifier on this guy. And I use homin' 'nades for bosses too.

1. Cloak
2. Deploy recon mine right in the middle of a spawn
3. (Not so classy) shoot a Harrier w/incendiary ammo burst
4. Cast homing grenade still within TC's damage bonus for a HUGE damage explosion as well as a lvl 1 FE
5. Cloak and detonate recon mine for another enormous deal of damage and yet another FE
6. Shoot whatever is still standing
7. Repeat

My Infidrell doesn't go by the name of Streak Killer for nothing. And since I use the Harrier on him, constantly visiting the ammo boxes is a given, so might as well spam homing grenades too.

My apologies in advance if my recon mine addiction has/will ruined the game for any of you.

Oh and it's so cool finishing off a wave with a recon mine explosion in a Michael Bay-esque fashion as you slowly, back turned, walk away like you own the freaking place. Especially when you're clutching a wave with 3 dead pugs watching in the back seat.


*Intended to insert an actual Michael Bay movie explosion gif but this one couldn't be resisted.

I spam Recon Mine, I don't care because it kills shit faster and stuns and flows nicely with how I play.



Make it classy; slap on a Paladin or Carnifex. Although a more stylish and sexy weapon would be the Suppressor, headshots for dayyyyys.

...Not sure if mentioned already, do try the High Lord and the Raider. Let that flimsy Valkyrie wannabe learn a trick or two of how the Eclipse gets things done

I appreciate the responses, tips, and recommendations from you guys. Thank you again.

But what's AcoCane? Is that short for Hurricane/Acolyte? Also what's the High Lord as well? I have no idea what that could be. I googled it and Claymore shotgun was one of the responses I got. If so, I assumed that's too heavy for her. But I will definitely try the Fury with the Raider. And the Fury is my go to character on Platinum. She might be strong on gold, but she's so much fun. But then again, all the N7s are ridiculous on gold.

here ya go,come join the High Lord following... as for the weight, you'd might think it's a tad heavy but truth is it ain't...
here's Feneckus 's video to illustrate the point from back then



Hm... I think i'm feeling like taking out mah Claymoar Fury tonight all of a sudden. Oh and another thing to try is Graal, just be mindful of the usual network conditions caveats

Nah, Throw has one of the shortest cooldowns in the game: even with the Claymoar, your Throw recharge is less than 2 seconds (provided you took the passive 4b and Throw 6b, and are not using the heavy barrel mod). I'm more of a Venom or Raider guy myself, but Claymoar Fury is one of the most insanely fun setups in the entire game: you owe it to yourself to try it at least once (same goes for anyone else who's never tried it). 

Is the Talon Fury out of fashion? Back on the Xbox that was a common often recommended setup and I still play her with the Talon. I love that pistol.

I have recently grown to love the Destroyer with the Revenant. I HATED both before but together this is a super fun combination.

Not really fitting for this thread but after almost 200 hours on my PC manifest I have finally unlocked the Geth Trooper. I was ready to hate him because he's squishy compares to the Vorcha. But omg without Hunter Mode he's so awesome!!!
Gosh I HATE hunter mode. I can't see shit and get killed nonstop using it on the Engineer.
I now officially love all the flamers. And if flamers annoy you, simple solution: All flamer lobby!

Oh and I like the Vorcha Hunter with the good old Mattock a lot. Imo the Hunter is absolute crap if cooldown is bad. I like spamming his powers and shooting in between. Mattock is perfect.

I based the squishiness on my friends going down a lot more with the geth than the vorcha.

Well I mostly play power kits. I rarely shoot, am terrible at headshots and find weapon kits utterly boring anyway.

I hate sniper rifles. Never use them and can't even get into shotgun infiltrators. In fact I dislike most guns. Especially slow ones.

My favorite geth is the juggy spamming siege pulse and moving around a lot. I rarely shoot with him either.

My favorite kits are grenade spammers. Drell Adept remains my absolute favorite to this day. I bring the Acolyte just to strip shields. No backup gun.

ME3 is the only MP I ever played and the franchise the only shooter I like because I can be a space mage and not shoot a gun at all if I want.

So I end up hating most build recommendations. Many seem to rely heavily on maxed UR. Which I don't have, not even maxed gold weapons yet on PC.

Yeah both the Claymoar and the Raider need the Smart Choke (accuracy), the other slot is up to you- I usually take the ammo mod so I don't have to hump ammo boxes as much, but the damage barrel or armor piercing mod are perfectly reasonable too. But Power Efficiency Mods are almost always next to useless: a level III Efficiency Mod only shaves about half a second off Dark Channel/Annihilation Field's cooldown time (4.32 seconds to 3.72 seconds). That's a pretty negligible difference. Its probably better to just get accustomed to the slightly longer cooldown, and use the armor slot for an Adrenaline or Cyclonic mod that you can get more mileage out of. 

As for phantoms, Claymoar is definitely not as easy as the Venom or Acolyte, but there's a couple of things you can do that help: either toss a Throw at them to get them to bubble and then shoot them in the face (they can't move or shoot with their bubble up), or shoot at them to get them to flip and then hit them with a Throw for a Biotic Explosion (they can't block powers with their bubble while they're flipping). You can also hit enemies next to them with a Biotic Explosion, since they often get clumped together with Dragoons and Centurions and other mooks- they can't block a power if its not aimed at them, but Biotic Explosions have a large enough damage radius that it can still hurt them if they're close enough. But you're probably right that this setup excels slightly more vs Collectors, or Reapers, than Cerberus, just because of phantoms. But it can still wreck Cerberus (it absolutely destroys 'Goons, and killing Goons is one of the most efficient ways to eat up a wave budget). 

And no one said the Reegar is a good choice, because the Reegar is always an abomination. Just say "no" to Reegar. 

Not the High Velocity Barrel (that has the weight/cooldown penalty), just the normal piercing mod ("Shredder Mod"). And I think the Power Efficiency mods are definitely sort of a placebo since the actual difference in cooldown times is so small, even with a level III... just like Cyclonics on certain characters (since the extra shields you get from a Cyclonic is calculated from the characters base shields, races with very low base shields receive much less than races with large base shields: using a Cyclonic on a Drell or a Vorcha is basically a complete waste). And this about the Cyclonics also applies to the Fury, since she doesn't have huge base shields either: you certainly can use Cyclonics, and it will make a difference, but personally I almost always use an Adrenaline Mod and then Survivor Gear (+20% shields and +3 ops pack capacity). The idea is that for the Fury, your ability to get in and out and kill stuff is what keeps you alive, not having huge shields or health totals (since you'll never have those, even with maxed Fitness and a Cyclonic IV), and Adrenaline Mod and extra Ops Packs makes a bigger difference in this regard than an extra 500 shields (which is less than the damage from a single attack from almost every enemy on Gold). 

And what you say about the Geth is just true in general: they are the most annoying faction, not just for the Fury but basically for any kit (except Kroguard, of course). You just have to take more care to stay out of open areas or LoS of Primes/Rocket Cheaters/etc. Abusing right-hand advantage is important vs. Geth when you're playing a squishy kit. The one positive about Geth is so many of them have shields that you can constantly be replenishing when you hit them with Throw for BE's (since AF Rank 6b Drain is a necessity for any Fury build). They are also very slow and cluster together quite easily, so use this to your advantage. 

And the Reegar is an abomination because its super OP (its DPS vs. everything besides armor is twice that of the next highest gun, the Raider), and it looks sounds and feels really pitiful for a shotgun: shotguns are supposed to go BOOM, not make that weird raspy whatever noise the Reegar makes. But I was mostly joking, there's not actually anything wrong with the Reegar- you just won't earn any style points with that gun. And its a pretty reasonable gun for the Warlord, just so long as you don't mind other Krogan calling you a "pyjak". It definitely is effective vs. Banshees. The most important part of playing the Warlord isn't the build or weapon selection however, its having an understanding of sync-kill mechanics since he most properly is always in melee range. If you look in the Resource Library thread, you'll find explanations of the various sync mechanics, but the short version is you want to stay away from Banshees when they're in their teleport mode, and then hammer the crap out of them once they're in their standing-around-throwing-warp-balls-and-screaming mode: they can't perform sync kills at that point. You also can't be sync-killed if you are at higher or lower elevation than the enemy, so abuse the crap out of ramps: a Krolord on a ramp is basically invincible. Retreat to your nearest ramp, and then hammer the crap out of them.  

TSol troll build with a Falcon + Incendiary Ammo while skipping Marksman in favor of Concussive Shot and Proxy mine is pretty fun with the nonstop staggers. I feel like a Geth.

On top of that it wrecks Cerberus (fuck Cerberus) and doesn't require aiming (which my webbed hands aren't good at) and you've got one happy N7!
