Finally got a decent weapon damage inscription for my #1 pilot's interceptor.
Colossus had 175%, Storm and Ranger had 150% weapon damage, plus some melee. Interceptor … a total of 29% that could count toward melee.
So I broke down and used some crystals to purchase melee … got 175% weapon damage, plus another 20% melee damage (off two inscriptions)…
So now my #1 pilot's Interceptor won't be such a gimp.
Also got some nice lego gear drops … giving me a better up close acid attack to go with my ranged acid gear (each with spare charges) …
Combined with a melee detonator to make it all go boom.
On another note, got a lego support gear piece for my Colossus … 82% gear cooldown buff.
Tried it out in the Tyrant Mine hack … continuous alternating venom spitting with rocket launches … it was goryous glorious.

So finally solo'd britaheim...lets not discuss how long it took me to do one of the stuuuuupid orbs *cough* 7 minutes and a thousand attempts *cough*. Need to practice interceptor morw Anyway after did that, felt like i hadn't punished myself enough after digging a crap ton of holes at home, so I set off for GM2 where I felt like I abused the crap out of right hand advantage sneakiness. Sorry not sorry Vara and elementalists and valkyries 😇. Pugged up with one competent player who I buddied up with, and spent most of the match hearing freelancer down from the other 2 who had disappeared off together and died a lot

I have been playing a lot of Tyrant Mines today to get the last points for the Arcanists for Champion of Tarsis. Still have 6 or 7 more runs to do (or actually do some of the collectibles stuff that's still not finished either). I really hate this stronghold which is a shame. It's actually really beautiful but the part on the platform just totally ruins it. It's neither challenging nor entertaining in any way and it just takes forever to finish. Anyways... it was getting late and I ended up solo in the stronghold and was prepared to record a solo run. But then two guys I regularly play with joined and we cleared the whole thing nicely. And when you get some high dps javelins together things like this happen:

Did 3 cata runs last night: gm3 with my ranger. This one was a real good team and was a joy to be a part of, ended up well in the 6m crystals. Also, got a muthafukin +300% truth of tarsis!!! Hells to the yeah! Immediately equipped it on my next gm2 storm run. It gelt really good to finally be able to use this gun again, it is so much fun!! The team itself? Not so much. It didnt know what it was doing. I pretty much solo’d diana’s landing... which was really fun 🙂 with the storm’s softened blowd + vanguard conponent, i was a demi god on gm2, and if i melee’d, the loop could be restarted. Doubt it works on gm3 as well but on gm2 it’s good enough 😜 Third run was a gm3 ramger again. Again a stupid team. We lost waaaaay too much time. We only just killed vara, and even then, it was only because my ult ranger took off about half vara’s health while the 3 others took the other half...
All in all, growing a nice nest egg again for when gear warchests become available again 😉

Rage quit because stupid controller issues nearly made the controller go for a long...walk. Aparently could be a bluetooth interference but I tried turning that off bluetooth on the phone but still no bueno. Next step is sitting 2 inches from the tv and try it wired instead. Collected a handful of lemons. Still repeats. Blah. Apparently I've signed myself up to be the only one to do kelrik. Also blah.

In today's news. I learned that the inscription "+X% combo damage" only counts for colossus. WHAT?! I've been using a component on my storm with that inscription for like, forever ( Ah well... any reason to dig into my forge and experiment with builds is good enough I'm still in love with devastator on my storm (200k+ damage per shot on vara's face? yes please?!). It'works well enough with my standard build (eternal squall and black ice), but works really well with my support build (ice storm + steam vent). Even despite the sucky pug group on gm2 >_> The second game was a gm3 cata run with my ranger, and I ended up with a really good group. Had some god fun! Even scored 3 limes: 2 components which I didn't have yet (but no decent inscriptions to speak of), and - dun dun duuuuuuun - a +200% charges last argument. Booyah baby! Bring on the ultimates XD I'm REALLY digging my current ranger build: - Gear: explosive blaze, god roll avenger's boon, Havoc LMG, rampager (support is dealer's choice, but I use the +200% charges one) - Components: * badge of devastation (with +25% ult speed inscription) and emergency power for ults (EP saves my life so many times, and has a +50% ult inscription) * tip of the spear and the melee shield restoration components for hyper-agressive restoration * focused freeze and the 5 hit acid one for priming... everything. This build allows me to play like the hyper-agressive solo twitch-reaction vanguard I am at my core in every game. Dealing high combo damage, shooting ults constantly, self-healing... It does have one downside though... After my third game I had a head-ache like crazy with all the explosions going off continuously XD (could also be the fact that it was 1am and I was dead tired, but still, so much flash) My third and final game was another GM3 ranger cata run, and this time, I REALLY had to carry the game. I think only one other guy really knew what we were doing. The other 2 not so much, which cost us a lot of time in the puzzles. We ended up with about 8 minutes left on the clock after all events were done, so I decided not to take any risks and figured: Frick it. I'm heading straight for vara and am gonna try to solo her, the others can do what they want. So I arrived at vara with about 7 minutes on the clock, and what followed was a story of bravery, foolishness, and utmost determination. I had no idea if I even had a build good enough DPS_wise to whittle her down within those 7 minutes. But after a shitload of ults and combo's, I got her down to a sliver of health in under 6 minutes I felt pretty good about myself And then of course, for the final 5%, in comes the cavalery. The other 3 (having basically done nothing the last 6 minutes, because I hardly saw the crystal count rise) mosey on down to leech off my preciously earned purple rain... Bah. As my headache was growing, I decided to try gm3 quickplay for a more casual experience to wind down. Only to be dropped in the middle of a scar giant robot end-of-mission-battle! Explosions, legendary enforcers, missiles, grenades, emergency powers, everything everywhere went off at once. It was utter, unadulturated chaos. But fun. This game never stops being fun. I love it for that, at least. Took me a while to filter out the adrenaline as I lay in bed, though >_>

yesterday in Anthem: - I solo'ed Britaheim with my Storm which worked surprisingly well and got my last focus challenge for now
- did another solo for the swift-10-minutes-challenge (which only appeared after I completed the 20-minutes-challenge)
- finished the darkness-falls-weekly but didn't get the 3 crystals - you are supposed to get those, right? even if you did it before (like you don't get the military salute emote anymore but still the crystals, right?! should I complain about that somewhere?!
- did a "real" cataclysm with my Interceptor on GM1 - and oh boy what a lovely competent team - it was fast, flawless and so much fun we got over 2.5 mill which I think for GM1 is very ok
- still thinking about trying GM2 - I have so many limes yet to get that I think I should up my lime-drop-chances ... maybe I'll try GM2 freeplay today
btw a question: so, the cataclysm is running for 20 (21?) more days, right? today comes the next event, yes! ( aka Takaro or Astrid should have checked the twitter thread first ^^) so, next week comes the last event... what comes after that? and do you guys know what happens after the cataclysm ends? another draught ? Its hard to say it could be another 6 months till the next event or on the other hand Bioware has their game face on (so to speak) and the events start coming at a regular pace they really haven't given any hints as to what they plan on doing

If you're comfortable on GM1 give GM2 a go. Ease yourself into it via freeplay first, or do what I did and just go balls to the wall and jump straight into cataclysm. Damn Astrid. I was hoping for Takaro first. I'm having difficulty though finding people who don't want to just go arena to arena, and want to do the secrets or whatever. Also still having troubles trying to get pugs who know what to do with Kelrik. As for post cataclysm, I dunno, maybe actually interact with people irl? 😂😂😂 (that was definitely a joke, I won't be doing that ) . If nothing special comes up I'm probably just migrate to something different for a while and put Anthem on the back burner.

Good on you. Go on ahead, jump in GM2! There are rarely pugs that can't handle GM2, so just leech off the others a bit Well, how I see it: - this week comes Astrid and weapons. After that, we have 14 more days. - next week comes takaro, and that way the cataclysm (story wise) will be complete. I think they'll make all war chests available for those 2 weeks. Or...hope. After the cataclysm? Well, I assume they'll probably announce what they're working at. But no due date. I hope they're mainly working on a patch for the loot now. EDIT: Also, anyone know? Can you solo Magnus event as interceptor?

Last night I changed my Ranger loadout again more towards combos after having played him as an ultimate build for a while. Hit those 600k at times, really fun. I so wish I could just extract all inscriptions and put them somewhere else and really work towards my builds. I also played ~30 minutes with the Colossus. I only have the new skills, melee and support item - the rest was universal components and legendary weapons. It's really ridiculous how totally OP this Javelin is and how little skill it requires. It's like the Geth Juggernaut 2.0 and I really wonder how people actually manage to die as a Colossus. I couldn't - and I had absolutely no idea how to play him properly. Everything just died. What a horrible Javelin. I really wish he was more of a tank that draws enemy aggro (that's what battlecry is actually for but it's not working) than the damage dealer that basically outperforms every other Javelin in almost every aspect. PillarBiter: this combo thing has to be one of the most misunderstood things in this game because they did such a poor job on explaining this stuff. But yeah... Combo Imp Damage = Ranger // Combo Aura Eff = Interceptor // Combo Targets = Storm // Combo Damage = Colossus. They should probably rename the last one to make it more obvious that it's for colossus only. But even then it's not obvious enough.

Lets just say Astrid was messy and that was it. I thought I had watched the video enough but apparently none of us did. I'm sure once I've done it a few times it'll be simple, but maaaaybe might take a while 😂. Kudos to the others I played with, they were all very competent, unlike the squad I played with earlier who messed up my britaheim multiple times. Also got a blade slinger mw whatever that is.

Kotaku has a Six Months Later article on Anthem. Basically it's a "major" event summary of the last six months from launch.
I'm curious about this entry. "Anthem’s inscriptions get overhauled in a February 28 patch. BioWare decides to make the randomised stat rolls on rare loot better on average rather than increase their drop rate overall. A bug that drops guns with ill-fitting perks, like a shotgun getting 20 per cent bonus machine gun damage, also gets patched out."
Is that correct? I thought Anthem's inscription design flaws are claimed to be patched but Frost grenades still have damage rolls. Snipers which cannot hip-fire and must zoom, still get +hip-fire damage% rolls.

I think I hit about 450k at most with target beacon and acid (but I don't have THAT much +imp.c.%, somewhere like 80%) Yeah, colossus is horrible to play as (sorry sofajockey). It requires very little skill once you get him at masterwork / legendary level, because there are simply TOO MANY ways to heal yourself. He heals by melee, he heals by ammo packs, he heals by health packs, ... I'm fine with him being tanky as he is, but his damage should be nerfed. Actually, damage output from storm and colossus should be switched around

A bug that drops guns with ill-fitting perks, like a shotgun getting 20 per cent bonus machine gun damage, also gets patched out."
Is that correct? I thought Anthem's inscription design flaws are claimed to be patched but Frost grenades still have damage rolls. Snipers which cannot hip-fire and must zoom, still get +hip-fire damage% rolls.
They were better for a short while, but then they reïntroduced the bug. No idea why this hasn't been re-adjusted again though.

PillarBiter: not quite sure about the total combo impact damage I'm running with right now. I think I have it on 3 components as well as on the support item. Unfortunately all of them single rolls and also 2x components that don't do anything else (sniper magazine and special arms ammo) for my build. Because of that I can't use symbiotic surge right now which would give another boost. Also the Rampager bonus plays a role and it's usually the fire explosion that do the most damage. Would have to record a run to see what was actually active at the time, I just remember seeing them being over 600 at times. I can only imagine the nice number that will pop up if I were able to do the build I want and put those inscriptions on components that I have more use for. And hopefully on javelin specific components as well because right now I'm using 3 ranger components. I could go down to two possibly if I'm focusing purely on combos but I don't know... wish it was more like with the Interceptor that can basically run 5 universals. Or like I said: have the good stuff on javelin specific components, that would be even more helpful. I just tested some of the new weapon. Tested as in "I got into freeplay to see what they do and how they work" and I'm not really happy with them. I didn't expect to be as I recently watched a few videos from the PTS days about them. They feel gimmicky and seem to cater more towards the casual players but I can't see them replace what I use for the Ranger and Interceptor. Jarra's Wrath might have been a contender if it primed faster. Only having 2 weapon slots really limits you and on both javelins I use both weapons a lot. Maybe I'll buy some more chests just to get a legendary version of every weapon, even with crap rolls - just to have one in case we can ever switch inscriptions and I want to use one of them... other wise I'll probably save the crystals and hope for the support chests to return and buy more melee weapons - both in high hops of really good rolls.

Hmmm, how u mean ‘prime faster’? How slow does it prime? Faster than focused freeze? Similar? Longer?
