Objective: finish the N7 challenges!

You almost got me, you almost got me... but after some thought I say - nope.



It was my 3rd try I believe. I was out of equipment by the beginning of wave 9. I wanted to see what rng gives me on wave 10 so by some miracle I survived. Then I saw devices... disabled 2 of them. Kited enemies so I could disable 3rd one. Run for it aaaand Marauders got me. Wave 3 - Short escort with the spawn at the opposite side of the map. Wave 6 - targets (Brutes so no big deal). And this sh..

This is my build if anyone is interested.
My build

If I can give any advice. Go for headshots. Don't bother with grabs, unless you have a good opportunity. Otherwise you'll achieve 20 HS without a problem. Wave 1 and I had 10 hs already. The rest you'll have even by accident. 10 waves to go, you know? And nades save lifes. Really. The more of them - the better.

Good luck with your runs guys

You can get grabs pretty easy wave one too if you don't want to go for heashots, just let the husks chase you around the outer walkways and you can get them to line up on one of the boxes for 5 quick grabs. 

Banshees were always last for me unless I could frag them into oblivion for a quick kill. Our strategies are very similar then, I'd get them whittled down from Carnage and frags from a distance and have them easier to kill when they get close. Same with Banshees, try to take a few bars of armor early so they're easier to kill later. I went no AR so I can spam Carnage. Sonashii if you're interested here's my build, lots of fire so it's great vs armor, poor vs Banshee barriers. I tried to hold the whole back area by the box of shame and it works well, but you always need to know where the Banshees are since they can jump to you quite quickly.

Idk if I can say I've ever really needed AR or the shield boost all that much. The damage imo is made up for by spamming Carnage and Incendiary ammo boosting Carnage's damage. Not as many issues with warp balls on Rio as I did on Vancouver with 6.I. Fuck Vancouver, that poor excuse for a map.

Yes,you can.But you need to be sub 28 not sub 20

My favorite are the Atlas rockets that shoot completely backwards. Run past an Atlas that just fires off a rocket and it somehow reverses direction almost instantly and hits you, fuck off you physics defying rocket POS.

Geth Hunter says Hi

Hunters always seem to shoot me just as the reload is about to finish..and then I gotta do it again, like twice, because it happens again haha. I'd rate them about the same, but yes the triple (I've even have them quad rocket) tap rockets are infuriating. There's a reason I love the Falcon GE vs. Geth, stun locking those bastards is a lot of fun and great payback.

Quick question for those playing on PC, what software are people using to record gameplay videos / take screenshots etc? (Side rant, how the heck does Origin NOT have a screenshot feature!) Thanks!

Arkhne If any race makes me swear at my screen, it's Geth! Picture this if you will; Hunter stuns you, Bomber flys over to you as you recover from Hunter stun, Bomber stuns you, you turn to run, Prime's Drone stuns you even though the Prime himself is out of sight, still recovering from stun the hunter shoots you again and health gate fails... You die! I will assume this sounds familiar

And people told me Dark Souls was hard, PAH! They know nothing, I'd rather fight Nameless King naked than solo Geth!

I hate you all




Went for a 66653 build, grenade capacity and the katana (for reference, the first time around I had full fitness, survivor loadout and the Revenant); I still opted for CM because I am scrub. I tried to get the medals out of the way as early as possible: headshots by wave 3, shotgun kills by wave 6; I am not used to this build, but even without optimizing the use of katana-carnage-frag grenades, I would do obscene amounts of damage to armour; Ravagers were my nemesis the first time around, but this time they melted. In exchange, marauders were truly pesky. I was concerned about banshees, esp double waves, but I found them manageable: the DoT from inc ammo gives you a little leeway before their barriers regenerate - the downside is that I found the DoT actually prevents banshees from exiting their warp-ball tossing state, leaving you with no other option than plinking away with your gun (but see later). One trick I used: carnage, being a power, primes on barriers too. If you are quick and lucky, you can get a fire explosion off barriers by detonating with a grenade, and that's usually enough to stop them. That means you can decide where to engage them, which I gleefully (ab)used to stop them in the short corridor between the stairs and the 3-grenade dispensing box; the hand of denial goes up only if the banshee sees you, so I bounced up to 6+3 (+tcps if you are so inclined) grenades around the corner; even with a few missing, that takes a big chunck of health off banshees.
I don't regret speccing 6 ranks in AR and going up the defensive tree: with only 3 ranks in fitness, you can survive a warp ball, but it will shield gate you and leave you very vulnerable to the marauder which is lurking around the corner. Though I usually hoard my missiles for wave 10, I did nuke double banshees on wave 8, and a spawn on wave 9: those two waves can easily become a war of attrition, leading to a loss by lack of consumables.
I shaved 20 minutes off of my last try and while some of that can certainly be attributed to a good dose of git gud, I found this build to be smoother and more enjoyable.

Sectiplave , I use the window snipping tool to grab screenshots; there are certainly smoother ways to do it, but I like it because I can name the pic right away upon saving it For videos, I use Geforce Experience.

I recomend Bandicam.A very light program,which can record 4K videos.I have Geforce Experience too,but it sucks hard.Also geth are walk in the park on Gold,but they are the hardest faction on Plat.I have to solo vs them on Dagger Hazard,Rio,Vancouver,Ghost hazard for one title in Platinum solos thread.Nice?
