N7HQ Stories (And Tales). Your Analysis is Welcome. Self or Otherwise!

If you are talking about "FFCW_Urizen", that was renamed to 2HoleDoll quite awhile ago. Looks like someone somewhere didn't update properly

The main statistic that matters:


Outside Mastery is my most completed Alien mastery. Smashbros (and drell)!!!!
Shotgun (x48), AR (x42) are the most completed weapon masteries.
My two favorite weapons: Venom (x48) and Saber (x39)
Solo Mastery is at 299....
Biotic (x75), tech (x51) - not surprising

Combat mastery is only at x19. I blame it on the 250 grab requirement.

I prefer booms.



But generally I try to mix it up a bit so that things don't get stale

General Challenges
Next most obvious thing, no weekend challenges. Simple answer, didn't have ME3 back then.

I'll preface what I'm about to post with the acknowledgement that it may not be of great interest to many, but it has been an enjoyable job going through my own stats, and I'm happy to have a kind of diary of my experiences for posterity. I've enjoyed the other contributions so far, so here goes...

I've played more than 10k games and am rapidly approaching 4k hours of recorded game time on my 3 main accounts. Given that I have had 3 other alt accounts it's fair to say that I'm already past 4k hours. It could be said that that might be excessive.

I've accrued a rough combined total of 255k in Challenge Points. My N7 ranking is at 120 on 2 accounts, although I did get to 1920 on my original one, purely to acquire a BotB banner that I never once equipped. Promotions were the ultimate and (other than Argus and Seeker Swarm points) only genuine grind that I've experienced along the way. I can't believe I've done the Argus challenge twice. I never tried to complete the Shuriken points because, even with 4k hours to spare, life simply is too short.

I've done Spectre Mastery 20 times; Solo Mastery 12 times (1 Plat Solo - DAI/Giant/Reapers/BW/Scorpion); Map Mastery 21 times (I rarely if ever host, so it's invariably slower to tick over than it should be. White, Giant and Glacier are the only Plat waves I've completed).

Biotic Mastery 38 times, including Warp, Reave, Dark Channel and Biotic Charge on every occasion, Lesser-Spotted Pull 29 times, Biotic Orbs and Barrier at the other end of the spectrum at 4 times, Nova and Poison Strike 3 times, and Seeker Swarms only once.

Tech Mastery 93 times - including Incinerate and Overload on every occasion, Combat Drone 81 times and TECH ARMOR(!) 23 times (thanks XCal. I even managed a TA Killstreak on Jade against Cerberus once, which I think was witnessed by firerider ). The others are widely spread, with Electric Hammer bringing up the rear on a mere 7 completions. Billy Bob, my idiot Krogan cousin doesn't get out much.

I've completed 135 Alien Masteries, with Resurgence leading the way on 21, Earth 19, Bloodpack and Rebellion 17, Machine and Retaliation 15, Reckoning 13, Commando 12 and Outsider last with 6. Even after all this time I still really need to L2Drell.

I've officially extracted with the BatSol some 228 times, with the BatSent following closely on 226. But I've recordeded 3700 waves with the former and over 1000 fewer waves with the latter. I certainly don't have a higher extraction rate with the BatSent in reality, so this merely shows that I continue to play the BatSol regardless of challenges. He is my true IDGAF character. I would estimate my extraction rate with either as being above 95% - much higher than the stats would appear to hint at.

I've recorded extractions with the Shadow 188 times, the Paladin 187, Destroyer 148, Fury 120 but the Slayer only 42 and the Demolisher a mere 40. The Slayer is easy to explain due to off-host issues and general squishiness, but the DemoGrill? I really don't know. I guess spamming grenades really isn't my thing.

As for my favoured Krogans, I've clocked more than 3k waves with my beloved KroSent (RARRR!!!), 1.9k with the Soldier but just over 1.6k with the KroGuard and a mere 700 with the Shaman. I've also done over 2k waves with the following: Geth Engineer 3k, TSent 2.6k, Justicar 2.3k, Jugg 2.2k, GI 2.1k, SI 2k.

The Quarksman and DrellGod are my least used characters in the game, each with 212 waves completed. The Volus Vanguard is only a few ahead of them. The fact that I've done as many as 428 waves with the Talon Merc astonishes me. It's literally several years since I last deployed him.

Weapons Masteries: Shotguns highest at 34. Despite what the stats show, the Claymore is my most used weapon in the game, with 34 completions, on the way to 35 putting it currently around 60k behind the total I've recorded with the Crusader. I couldn't even begin to imagine how many unrecorded points I've scored with the Claymore, as it's my go-to stress-reliever, irrespective of completed challenges. The Pirahna's at 33, Wraith and Raider 30. I was very surprised to see that I've used the Reegar as much as 29 completions (same as the Graal and GPS), but it's fair to say I've never equipped it when I haven't been in pursuit of quick points. The Venom sits at 22 (same as my Disciple), which is obviously low by BSN standards.

ARs 31, SMGs 27, Pistols 25, Snipers 24, Combat 26. No surprises in any of those categories.

Rippaz 48, Geth 27, Collectors 18, Cerberus 14. 90% of my games begin with a UUG search, so I can't really be held responsible for that split. I don't solo enough to skew the data either. The relative dearth of Guardians on Gold is always a huge factor in the delay in knocking off Cerberus completions.

There isn't any clear pattern regarding my use of consumables, presumably because I switch classes so much. I do tend to be lower on Strength Enhancers, Shotgun, AR and Pistol amps, and Incendiary ammo. I'm not as hard on Adrenaline as many others here, and usually only put the mods on my melee AIU, Fury or melee QFI.

In conclusion, I'd say my stats back up my assessment of myself as a pretty solid jack-of-all-trades player, favouring powers over weapons (unless Claymoar), tending to shy away from the so-called God-tier characters* and not exactly over keen on playing Plat, at least with pugs. So if I do land in your lobby as a DrellGod sometime, don't get your hopes up too high.

TL/DR Get a life. You and me both. *Headbutt*

*Edit - BatSol is obviously God-tier, and in terms of fun at least, a melee KroSent is positively heavenly. 

I expect my N7hq tells an interesting story, I have some pretty extreme tendencies:

-127x Solo Masteries, 116x Plat Solo Extraction Completions (I'm a pretty lonely me3mp'er)

-10x Bloodpack Mastery, next closest is Earth at 4x, all other Alien Masteries are 1x-3x

-Geth Mastery has been stuck since around when I first started playing: only 1x (BJ tried to fix it for me, but I was playing at the time and apparently they can't reset challenges if you're logged in)

-so 1x Geth Mastery (because stuck), 4x Collectors (because ps3), 21x Cerberus and 40x Reapers- when I started soloing, I overwhelmingly played Reapers until I learned how to Venom

-18x Shotgun Mastery, 5x Pistol and AR, 2x SMG... and 1x Sniper Mastery (#scrublife)

-did I mention I like shotguns?

My consumable situation is also pretty absurd, I currently have:

-2 Shotgun Amp IIIs (+3 Shotgun I's and 1 Shotgun II)
-243 Pistol Amp IIIs
-246 AR III's
-250 SMG III's
-255 Sniper Amp IIIs

and

-4 Incendiary IVs
-1 Disruptor IV
-15 Warp IVs
-254 AP IVs
-255 Cryo IV
-254 Phasic IIIs

some stats

General

Some more stats.Well ,obviously, which is most completed for me

muahmuah I hope you'll take this comment in the spirit it's intended, but I just have to say viewing your stats bizarrely made me feel better about myself and thoroughly inadequate simultaneously. I salute you sir!

I have to totally agree with your last point, also your avatar is up there with some of Apry's best:

   

i won't touch these little sons of.....

Not on PS3 they don't!

One of the joys of switching to my Xbox account* is the fact that I can play Collectors without the fear of a hard freeze. I do find them tougher than Reapers, obviously, but depending on what character I'm playing or what kit I have equipped, I don't regard them as any more difficult than the other two factions. Single shot snipers in particular can be a real problem, just as a Shadow with a hair-trigger SS impulse can eat a lot of dirt (or is it ashes?). On the other hand my Batarians love loading into a UUG game and finding the 'turds waiting. Falcon Punch FTW!

* It's not beyond the odd weird glitch (last night I had teammates floating above and around me on Vancouver) but freezes are extremely rare.
