***Your Last Pug in One Word- v2 Andropugs!***

Artificer!

megawug was helping me out for a couple of days, so we had lots of fast gold games for challenges. Folks are very nice, and no problems finding the games. Mostly on Derelict (groan). I also see really new folks too, which is nice.

I am up to level 19 on my Architect, and the MF boxes gave me the baby Artificer, the other kit with Remnant pet. Now I just have to decide which skill to ignore so now I have the Jugernaur and Artificer. Two more to go!

The silver weapons variants are still building up, and building up...

She is rank I, so I will probably max out her 3 spells, and will not do passives. I was actually lucky to also get another rank on my BScrapper, but the other two boxes were kits I do not want to play. But that’s how it goes....

I added up all the remaining ranks on my silver variants, and it came up to 130 to go, so it will be a while till I can add boxes to MFs to earn the gold character unlocks.

Interesting, thank you for sharing! I absolutely have to do the Invasion on her, b/c it is a skill I do not have any points in for challenges.

I know you good folks recommend the SMG, but I am really tired of Hornet's finger workout, so I am back to Cyclone and, well, want to try other guns. Like that raptor you were saying is a Sniper Rifle with a difference.

My Cyclone is high level Syphon (VII, I think), while all golden stuff is unvarianted, with ranks I to III (Predator S and Ghost are at V gods only know why), so I really appreciate the ease of use and health benefits of syphon-cycloning. Basically, my Manifest is in the state of unlocking the Silver Variants ranks (which range from I to X), with the odd golden unlocks that pop up in the silver loot boxes once in a while.

Overall, I prefer to use what I am unlocking, as it feels more rewarding and keeps me invested into playing, b/c if all the silver variants are garbage, it's really feels like earning millions just to pay for the privilege of reaching the gold weapons. I just wanna feel like I am working on something I am using.

Yup, I have Raptor Siphon, so I will give that a shot on her, because I play with Cyclon on my Architect atm. Looking forward to trying the kit out, though I am not sure which order I will go in after the Salarian.

Arkhne can you hear me?

Haha, I had it as well on Platinum just after you left...

Also, bonus for the match after our Phalanx match, I got a SS of our Charger lobby:

Glad to see there are still others out there in the world of ME:A PUGing!! I am on the US West Coast, and I PUG gold on PC regularly in the evening. I don't have any problem finding games on PC in the prime hours. Of course, the quality of the players needs to be scrutinized a bit, as in any PUG match. At least, you need to guess who may or may not be reliable. Lately I have had some great PUG matches with experienced gold players, and it has been a blast. It has helped me improve using the right character/weapon/boosters to help the team. (It really helps playing with better players; I am still a gold scrub, but I will revive my teammates.) Now that I have all my Rare characters at XX and Rare Siphon weapons at X, the extra character bonuses really help make some characters come alive.

TL;DR
I can't believe I am still playing this game, and I am glad it's still going!

Probably the same reason the menu buttons at the bottom of the screen move around between screens, so you can accidentally click on 'Reset Level' when you're in the character selection screen, and in general, the UI appears to be fractured in how it wants to present itself...

Ahh, my resting place on Aqua, where I ... stand between the waves and shoot the loo

Have been trying to cross over the PC dark side with a new lap top I bought but having laggity laggity lag non success.
