Breaking Bad- Wow, is everyone just going dark? ( spoiler cut )
ME blather- Finished up Resurgence mastery with the geth engineer and infiltrator. Like I said, I guess I am getting better at the game. In my previous posts, I said I was a little skeptical about being able to do the extracts given the squishiness of the geth. But I've gotten pretty good with both characters. For the engineer, I've learned how to use the turret better- same with the QFE. I had specced the sentry and geth turrets out initially, because I preferred more direct damage dealing. But yeah, they make for good protection during the devices objective. (especially the geth one, since it replenishes shields) Plus they're good for flanking, particularly since I play solo.
As for the GI, it really is one of the best kits. I mean, playing solo, I don't think it would be wise to use the Javelin like many GI players do since its so slow firing. But any AR will do with it. Basically, just cloak, pop out a proximity mine at a group directly and when it explodes, since it set to "damage taken" it weakens them in addition to the blast damage. But yeah, since you should use it more like a grenade than a mine, it should blow up while you're still cloaked, meaning you get the cloak damage bonus also. And since the cloak damage bonus extends a few seconds after breaking cloak, you just shoot down the straggles with a good AR. It works wonders against boss units.
I dunno, I think the GI and the TGI are considered two of the top tier kits. The GI is prolly better, but I do feel a sense of risk since its a glass cannon- Geth have low health, and then hunter mode halves their shields. But hunter mode does speed you up. So between hunter mode and tactical cloak, you're doing a lot of hit and run. Because you don't want to get hit. TGI though, it has the stimpacks. Which I use for defense rather than offense. The attack power boost is useful, but you're already playing an Infiltrator. More useful is the fact that it insta restore shields. So if you're in trouble just pop a stim. Plus TGI has overload to get rid of shields, it can handle anything.
Still have Rebellion mastery left under the Aliens tab- like I said, still deciding whether I should continue with the phoenix vanguard, since I only need to do 8 with it. Or I could do the Quarian Infiltrator- its 10 extracts, but its with either the male or female. I had heard sabotage makes QFI vs geth easy since you can turn the geth on each other, but I haven't gotten the hang of it. Although I just realized the QMI is basically just like the engineer, but with cloak instead of incinerate. Which, I might do that instead since I can just spam arc grenades.
