Did the latest freeplay boss anomaly … not sure, but it might be bugged.
Did the first one … it started out well, then … what!?!? Is that all there is!?!? It must have bugged out and I need to do it again.
Did it two more times, same result each time.
Seems like there should be … more … quite a bit more.
If it's not bugged, then it's hugely, over-the-top, gigantically … underwhelming.
The first one, with the escari was the most interesting and the most complex … real thought went into the design.
The second with the fury was OK … not as complex, but still fun.
The third with the titan was a bit less than I expected, kinda meh.
But this one … is just mailing it in … I hope I'm wrong and it really is an issue of bugging out.
The way it's going, the last one will auto-complete when we boot up Anthem (like the repair challenge did until version 1.5).

Haven't been around much but this weekend I grinded the challenges hard so now I only have to kill the 2 upcoming mini bosses for the Night Hunter challenge and then "Indomitable" will be done and I will see if the armor sets are worth it. Speaking of... I really don't know why I bought that Ranger Halloween armor... What you mean? It's a decent looking armor, innit? I don't know... first I liked it but after 2 games I thought it felt wrong on the Ranger and switched back to a more soldier-like looking style. Bought the armor that came recently. Still waiting for some old Ranger armors to finally return. It's not bad, but I most likely won't use it again and you can't really mix and match as you have already said yourself I think. For the Storm (for which I usually don't buy stuff) I bought it as well and totally love it. Goes nice with the vampire animation as well. And the Interceptor one is strange but I'm also glad I'm using it and unlike the others I actually like just using parts of it (using the torso right now). Interceptor right now is 4 parts each from a different set. I like it. Will probably buy the Quarian regardless...

So, the Mass Effect armors are in the store today. They look nice enough, but I'm actually getting kind of pissed off now that we got Anthem instead of another Mass Effect game or Andromeda DLC.

I'm quite happy with this year's N7 day.
I bought the shepard shuffle and AI graphic with coin. The shuffle is everything I hoped cringe-wise and more! It's also the first infinite emote. You start shuffling and unless you move it just keeps shuffling forever and ever and ever. It. Is. GLORIOUS!
I haven't bought any armor yet (using shards), because I really like some of the looks I have going for my javelins right now, and I'm still deciding whether I need another look for something or not. Krogan armor is definitely my favorite (WREX BUILD!?!) but I don't play colossus that much. Turian is nice but you need to either go fully turian or nothing. Asari storm is okay, but the helmet is too much. Quarian just doesn't seem to fit in the anthem universe, way too much over the top.
Anyway, only did the new quickplay event, and I found it to be the coolest one yet! I had feared they'd simply cut and paste the crab boss fight from the stronghold, but they redesigned the area in a really spooky manner! I won't give any spoilers but I like it and it is done really well imo. (Dunno what @grinch experienced)

Today in anthem! FInished the 5k challenge. With britaheim having a deluge of enemies, the kill counter goes up real fast! Took me less than 2 cataclysms to get the last 600 kills. Also finished the 10 freeplay events of each challenge. So now the only thing left on my indomitable list is the bristleback! I'll log in for that one next week. Curious about how it will look! Speaking of looks, still undecided whether or not to shell out for the asari and/ or krogan armors. asari kinda looks cool... and is my main. But what I REALLY want is fly around and be Wrex :/ I have till the end of the week to decide, I guess. Also did some freeplay with my ranger for a change, after having played binary star storm for a long time. Holy shit such underpowerment! Well, not really, but it's just that BS Storm has made me sooooo lazy, as the damage it puts out is just distributed very efficiently with minimal effort while the ranger requires a completely different playstyle. I actually died, which hadn't happened to my storm in... can't remember. I think I'm done with anthem for now again, until something new is released. No point in only looking for god rolls, you'll go mad that way. I AM looking forward to PTS info. Fingers crossed for Loot and crafting 2.0. Actually already played some thronebreaker again. Nice to play something else as well

Played around a bit in PTS. "Holiday" lights strung up around the fort were a nice touch. The snow covered world is kinda cool. Unlike previous seasonal events, Grabbits are still wandering the world, guess they don't migrate south for the winter.
In freeplay, did the timed challenge, it was fun, but I'm not sure there is much replayability in it. For me, it's kind of a one and done. It will probably be a daily challenge that pops up … nothing onerous about it, just not all that interesting.
The Tyrant mine looks like it has possibilities. I was solo, so I couldn't do much exploring or figure out what the echo holders were for … delivered echoes … didn't see what to do with them, then had to take them out to take to the relic to silence it (no extra echoes).
I figure we'll get some feedback on what we are supposed to do. One upgrade … the time on the platform killing spiders (scorpions) is radically reduced. That was a long time coming.
Because I didn't do whatever I was supposed to do with the echoes … the number of crystals I earned were tiny.
Hershel's store doesn't look any different, but they have not yet plugged in the freelancer's voice … so for right now, the discussion with Hershel is via subtitles for the pilot.
Prospero's store wasn't open … so I'm guessing no changes there. They still haven't fixed some of the issues backing out of inventory trees in the vault.
I think I caught some new dialog from Haluk and Faye, also Vule. It's possible that it showed up in 1.5 and I just didn't experience it yet.
Several placeholder objects on the map … no idea what they will become.
I'm going to guess that the winter seasonal is going to be fairly short-lived. Which is not a bad thing. The work done on it could show up as regular seasonal transitions to the terrain. I think that's where a lot of the work went … making the world look natural in a winter setting. IIRC, originally we were going to see seasonal changes in Anthem … that's now a possibility.

Wow.....Every time someone mentions that they've finished 'another one' of the Legionnaire's Challenges, I hang my head in shame and self-pity because I am still working through the Challenge of Valor.....it's been an on-going love-hate-hate-hate-itty-bitty-like somewhat type of relationship between me and that Challenge for the past several months. Not sure I can bear to do anything longer. For some reason, my mind instantly dreads the thought of 'grinding', when all I'm really waiting for is more STORY Content-- and for them to unlock those &$&@#@ gates
Sorry for the rant

No idea how I'm ever going to fullfill it. 2) Real nice-looking Jav you got there! 3) FInally buckled and bought me the krogan armor. Got me a nice wrex-looking colossus now.

Did the last remaining night hunter freeplay event yesterday (as my wrex colossus ). Though the area of the event was cool, it was just a keep the fire burning event redone. With a bristleback on top. Was "meh okay". But it did get me the free armor! Which was kind of dissapointing... Not really any looks I was going for. Except the ranger. The ranger kinda looks like a cyberpunk in armor. Love that. Anyway, glad I can let anthem rest for a while now. Enjoying thronebreaker further. The choice / consequence really has me torn up in that one sometimes :/

Gaming is meant to be fun (most of the time 😂), and if you're not enjoying it or dreading playing a particular game then you're doing it wrong. There's no valuble special achievement for finishing it, or an award (except a few more grey hairs and less hair in general). Sure you get some fancy notification and a sense of gratification, maybe a ps trophy or whatever, but it doesn't really change your life (I wouldn't know, I haven't played in a while) Which Marie Kondo are you? If its the one on the right, maybe give it a break for a while until you feel like playing it cos you WANT to not because you need to grind for hours.

Today in Anthem … played with a new guy or at least someone who had not done the cat before … just two of us. He/she hung in there, we didn't have much time left after Astrid, but we took Vara down like a baws (GM2).
Next two pugs, a friend joined in …
We underperformed a bit in the first, the other two took down Vara with a lot of time left … but we'd gotten most of the stuff.
The second pug, everyone worked together, we scooped up all the stuff and even waited for our last teammate to arrive before finishing Vara.
And then … Hershel rewarded me with an awesome lego Earthshaker melee weapon … down to just one lego item … Blades of Warding … for my Interceptor … and my #1 pilot will have all the "new" weapons and gear up to spec with decent and in some cases god level inscriptions.
Might even get to work on upgrades for the #2 pilot before this seasonal event is done. All in all, a good night in Anthem.

The 16 Nov daily challenge for completing a legendary mission is bugged.
This is a recurrence of that mission being bugged … the treasure chest does not spawn at the end, so the mission can't complete.
I reported it on the EA forums and actually got a response asking for specifics.
Something similar occurred when the legendary missions first came out … IIRC, it was a few of the Dax-associated missions. They fixed those missions long ago …
This one was not originally bugged … it worked fine … then at some point, one of their updates broke it (the mission bugging out predated version 1.5), they need to fix it or take it out of rotation.

A friend invited me to play a few cat runs, three of us … a fourth random joined us … and turned out to be a great teammate.
Added her to our FL and we gave Vara several sads, scoring many crystals.
And … got one of my Colossus' missing weapons (Sentinel's Vengeance) with a god-roll set of inscriptions.
One weapon to go and the #1 pilot's Colossus is done.
Still haven't gotten the last seasonal event item for my #1 pilot … hope to see that this cycle, so I can start upgrading the #2 pilot.

Finally!
Got the last Colossus-specific weapon for my #1 pilot. Now just need one gear piece for her Ranger and Storm … plus a seasonal melee weapon for her Interceptor.
Was running the Colossus as the default Javelin to get the weapon … now on to the Ranger, then the Storm.
I really hope to get that last melee piece before the current cat finishes up. At one point, I thought I might get to work on the #2 pilot's gear and weapons, but right now, I'd be happy just to complete the #1 pilot's loadout. Just sorry I won't get to hear much of Hershel's biting event-themed comments for the #2 pilot.
Once the seasonal store closes shop and I get the last pieces of gear for my #1 pilot, I'll work my #2 pilot full time. It will be a bit shocking to regress like that … but he'll be in reasonably decent shape by the time the next seasonal event opens up.
Also … you only have a few hours left to grab the elder escari in freeplay if you have not done so … it's the active anomaly right now.

Finally completed that Steal Escari Tech world event and OMG, who the F came up with that stage 1 mechanic? 3 times on GM2 me and full groups failed fueling that engine before we were out of fuel tanks, and I thought we were moving pretty fast. FINALLY completed it on GM1 with 2 guys guarding the engine! Then came stage 2... the vertical platformer... surprise!
Gotten a lotta legendaries today while trying to finish the 5k Cataclysm challenge. Choices, choices...
... I'm not overly proud of this...

I haven't had much time to play lately and also lacked motivation because of more important real life matters to even consider playing. But this weekend I played some games, tried some new things and recorded some gameplay. After around 1200 hours I finally got a Softened Blows with Ultimate Damage. I was kinda joking in Discord how I could really use a Bloodlust with Ultimate Damage as well now and what do you know... 20 minutes or so later I got exactly that. It felt really strange but obviously I'm happy about it. But it's still annoying as hell to sometimes find the "right" setup because if you swap out something you might also take away other useful things like jav-damage, recharge speed, armor or something that might have an impact on how you can play your javelin beyond just changing weapons or abilities. So I'm still hoping we can do something about this somewhere along the road of their overhaul...

I bought me the lancer of fortune armor.... with shards. Yeah I'm not proud of it, but who cares when your ranger looks so good? I'll post pictures when I ever log on to anthem again. I'm at the final battle of thronebreaker, but I'm disgusted with the difficulty jump there totally offputting Been a while since I raged at a game so badly.
