that is how it worked in the previous games In 3 playthroughs there has always been a pro and a con in these situations regardless of whom you bring. Not necessarily true for this game, however.. When I was deciding what the outpost on Eos should be, I had Vetra and PeeBee out, and they both said science. damn it must be my choice of companions

And if so, would a squad mate's opinion change based on who the other squad mayer is? For example, I had Drack and Vetra with me. Drack opposed the deal and Vetra supported the idea. I have no idea who else opposes the deal. But if I were to bring him/her along with Drank, would one of their opinions change so there would be opposing opinions? that is how it worked in the previous games In 3 playthroughs there has always been a pro and a con in these situations regardless of whom you bring.

Wow... So...your Scott is kinda of a dick, eh? I mean, I see how some people might look at me and get that impression, I won't exactly deny it either because I understand how someone with my accomplishments could maybe make others feel insecure. All I ask for is that same level of open-minded understanding. Once you've saved not on Ark, but exactly ALL of the Arks, let alone the entire project and secured the future of the native population by defeating the opposing force that's had their society in shambles... You're kind of a big deal. Bitches will want to fuck. I can't, as Pathfinder, be expected to adhere to the same moralities as common folk, common folk are not presented with the same values in their day to day lives, nor their struggles. I'm not saying Im better than Cora, or she should be thankful to have me in any capacity. I'm just saying there are litterally thousands of bangable persons who have me to thank for their continued existence, persons who WOULD say that Cora should be grateful that I claim her (despite side bitches). I'm not saying I'm not a dick, and I'm not saying they're right. I'm just saying I'm the Pathfinder. Turns out Scott Ryder is a direct descendant of Kanye West....

Entirely doubtful if you ask me
Why would the remnant bots then act as simple VIs? Why did they retain none of the AI they were part of?
Then again....I could see it happen too under the right conditions
Like a race of AI that killed their creators and is now trying to "make up" for it

In my playthrough he's not in charge. The majority of my playthroughs, I don't recruit him. I have had Ashley shoot him a couple of times. So much for your choices matter crap. That settles it. Destroy will be canon. ME4 will be released in 2022 that takes place in the Milky Way shortly after the events of ME3 I would buy this

N7 crusader with VHS works like a charm for vanguard (now if only they did not nerf it it would be better) Next up N7 Eagle Huh, so the aug doesn't completely screw clip size? Nice! I tried out EC on the Hurricane and it was just as good as on the Equalizer. Didn't try VHS on it yet. Also ran into a new bug. After putting VHS on the Valkyrie if I went near to an ammo box, it would show 'ammo collected' and then switched to another weapon with thermal clip, most of the ammo had disappered... Had this happen with Dhan and Reegar Carbine so far. it does. It halves the clip size...BUT with the right upgrades I get 3 shots per clip with it at 1200 damage per shot and since I play vanguard and VHS weapons do not need reloads I can empty a clip, charge, nova, melee, empty another clip (which at that point has fully cooled)...at which point charge has cooled down too so I can charge again and the cycle continues

what I mean is that without any other gain switching from a hitscan weapon to one that requires you to lead the target is pointless And yes I preached about this countless times and how this flies in the face of the established lore but Bioware REALLY wanted that shooter crowd to come to MEA Gotcha. We're finally on the same page it seems hah. In general I'd love to hear more about people's crafting experiments!!

it's called "leading the target" which is pointless if you have hitscan weapons I'd say VHS is great for casters even if the penalties attributed to it are arbitrary and fly in the face of the lore I still wonder why Bioware has to always only backhandedly give players what they ask for. A LOT of people asked for old school ME1 weapons back, Bioware gives them the Vintage heat sink but makes sure the gun gets nerfed in the process. As if they had to make a point of making "their vision" (guns that reload to draw in the COD crowd) more palatable because they know best. Ah thanks for the term! But leading the target with the modified plasma seeking aug is necessary, since the projectiles are much slower than normally and missed most of the time when I tried shooting straight at the targets. I thought Gears of War was the most obvious influence for ME2... Overtly grimdark atmosphere, waist-high covers everywhere and standard clips... The in-game reason for thermal clips was kinda wonky: supposedly higher rate of fire, but at the expense of unlimited ammo and all because the geth used it first. And they do this after, as far as the general populace knows, the geth have been defeated. I could see that military personnel would find it more appealing, but that EVERYONE IN THE KNOWN GALAXY decides to roll with is kinda stretching it. Voice of Reason: "Hey since we're going to this new galaxy that we know basically nothing about, maybe take some of those guns with unlimited ammo with us? You know, just in case?" Everyone else: "Lalalalalalalalaaaa not listening, let's go already!!!" what I mean is that without any other gain switching from a hitscan weapon to one that requires you to lead the target is pointless And yes I preached about this countless times and how this flies in the face of the established lore but Bioware REALLY wanted that shooter crowd to come to MEA

Again, these observations come from a new game+ insanity run: VHS is a pretty solid choice for the Valkyrie AR, since it fires bursts instead of being automatic. Just don't put any projectile augment on it, it screws up accuracy. Bio-converter + seeking plasma aug turn both Piranha and Dhan into ungodly murder machines! It also gives both a lot more range. You just need learn how the bullets curve and learn to aim in advance, so to speak (dunno know how to say, Engligh isn't my mother tongue). First picture a clock. First example: you're both on the move and your target is trying to run to cover, going left from your pov. Aim left in front of her, the plasma balls will then curve right and most likely hit your target. Second example: you're both in cover, taking potshots at each other. Again picture the clock. Aim at either twelve or two o'clock and slightly above the cover. In all cases though, if the enemy does the dodge animation, you miss that shot it seems, although it might look like you shouldn't. I used the soldier profile (rank 5 by then I believe), skills were VI Infection, tactical cloak and turbocharge. Use Infection, activate cloack and then turbocharge. I took down an Eiroch on level 80-something with 5 shots from the Dhan on Insanity. With inferno ammo and/or aug you could probably do it with 4 shots! Equipment was: heleus icon helmet, kett arms and legs and maverick chest. This has got me thingking, is there a dedicated insanity run build thread? Couldn't find one with a quick seach.. it's called "leading the target" which is pointless if you have hitscan weapons I'd say VHS is great for casters even if the penalties attributed to it are arbitrary and fly in the face of the lore I still wonder why Bioware has to always only backhandedly give players what they ask for.

The beam emitter does not have a damage penalty, but the base accuracy and rate of fire of the weapon still matter a great deal. Put the beam emitter on a Revenant and you will lose a lot of damage just because many of the beam's damage pulses will miss despite the beam being kept on target. Put it on a slow firing weapon and it will take forever between damage pulses. Beam emitter is best on a high-rate of fire, extremely accurate weapon. Thats the stupidest sounding augmentation ive ever heard of. Explains why beam is so shit. dude trust me...the penalty is there, I tested it, the damages goes WAY down in reality tho the stats remain the same in the inventory

We really need some specific mechanical information concerning the various augments. Trying to puzzle out their true effects, apart from the incomplete in-game descriptions, can be frustrating. There are always hidden numbers (that are generally datamined), but these completely unmentioned effects are often surprising and frustrating. Tiberius , any chance we could get some clarity around the "hidden" effects and stats of augments? I'm thinking in terms of unlisted effects, damage or ammo-capacity modifiers, etc... Anything we could get our hands on would be great. I figured it was worth asking, at least. (Love the game, by the way. I'm on my 3rd playthrough with no intention of slowing.) We're actively working right now on improvements to the messaging around augments (much more clarity around the exact pros and cons that each introduces right now). In some cases, we're looking to improve the augments themselves, but in ALL cases we want to improve clarity around what they do. Based on how things are currently tracking, I'd wager that we'll deliver part of these improvements (most of the clarity stuff) in one patch and then the rest of them (a few clarity items and some functionality improvements) in a separate patch, rather than all at once, just so we can get some improvements out to you sooner. so just out of curiosity....why the insane Nerf on the shots per clip with the vintage heat sink on top of the cool down taking twice as long as a reload? Isn't that flying in the face of the lore? And why the insane Nerf on damage with the beam emitter mod?

Son of a fucking bitch
So the penalty DOES NOT show on stats but it is fucking there alright
My N7 crusader x, not modded with the beam emitter, deals about 1200 damage, the Falcon x, beam modded, ON PAPER delas 600...yeah, my ass, the Crusader blows up a spitbug in one shot, the same spit bug requites FIVE OR SIX SHOTS with the falcon
WTF BIOWARE? you do not hide penalties on crafting items and equipment, this is not a fucking souls game

pathfinder = SAM + Human...just saying Which could have been solved in a different and more elaborate way. Just saying, not blaming Bioware for it, just video game writing in general. They're afraid to lose their audience if Johnny or Jane No No isn't placed in the driver's seat within the first couple of hours. There may be some appreciating this approach, but I guess a lot of people would have patience if the story itself is able to take them. you understand that in this day an age the majority of people will just drop a game and return it if it does not suck them in within the first few hours (if not minutes)? Mass Effect Andromeda already started insanely slow if you ask me.

some people never rise to it because they lack the mentality and aptitude for it. Why exactly do you want this so badly it's not that I want it. It's that I can see it. I already shown examples of Cora using it and only reason is lacking as a leader is her issue of worshipING heroes. Now that she is getting out of that stage, what exactly is going to hold her back from becoming a good leader. The thing you have yet to point out. where do you see it? When she wallows in her feelings after Sarissa reveals herself for what she is and needing Ryder to kick her out of it? Or when she admits she is happy NOT being the pathfinder? The best she did was parrot Sarissa's manual to Sarissa's second in command to calm her down. Even if she could take charge in a punch she would rather follow and she says so herself. As opposed to Avi who even not liking the role and having lost his mentor immediately stepped up and started being the pathfinder, leading people and organizing them and even trying to find clues (successfully) about the Turian ark. He did not let someone else take the lead.

I see I was not clear when I posted this question. I know why Ryder was made a pathfinder and I am ok with that. My question really starts when we find the Nexus and they give us a nice new ship. At that point there is only 1 pathfinder and a whole lot of people looking for a home. Even if Cora doesn't get a SAM implant or a fancy ship she still could become a pathfinder and get out there and explore. Up to 100,000 people are placing their hopes on a single person exploring a rather large cluster. It would take years if not decades for Ryder to explore the cluster alone. I will also point out there were other attempts at helping with the exploring and protecting of Outposts that were done in a black op type of way. I just don't see why they wouldn't make it official is all, seems like an easy way to raise everyones moral. pathfinder = SAM + Human...just saying
