The Huntress' cloak weapon damage bonus is broken and not working (BSN).
Yikes, is there even a QA department over at BioWare anymore? I'm not touching that class then. It seems it was thrown together like Frankenstein. However, I just skimmed the forums quickly and apparently it works for powers. So a DC or Warp will do a full cloak bonus for damage over their entire duration when fired from cloak, so that could be good.

Human Sentinel time.
I know right? Because the Fury must be everyone's go to character for biotics. /sarcasm

So, tech explosions are counted as well? If so, it's time to take my trusted Geth Engineer to the battle.
Not everyone of us has N7 Fury. =/

Where does it say tech explosions in the text?

I thought the mentioned Human Sentinel had mostly tech abilities? I could remember that wrong, as I haven't used the class that much.
Human Sentinel has Warp and Throw i believe.

Well, for a challenge for Biotic Explosions, the Fury produces the greatest amount of them in the shortest amount of time, bar none.

Shame the enemy has to be killed for it to count - all those biotic explosions on atlases are going to be meaningless..

20,000 points is so trivial. Might as well be 'play a match with a biotic class.' I'm all for automating the process and giving us challenges every week, but making them boring, simplistic battles of 'attrition' (that can easily be completed in a single match) is super lame. I wish they'd come up with more interesting challenges that coaxed players into trying new things, maybe learning how to play more effectively, I don't know. Hell, adding a little specificity (complete x on this map, with this race, against this enemy) is just more interesting I feel. Oh well, come on Hurricane VIII!
Just had 2 games where I couldn't see certain enemies, take cover, or climb ladders. First was on Reactor/Cerberus/Gold where I couldn't see Phantoms. Second was Reactor/Reaper/Gold where I couldn't see Husks, Brutes, and Ravagers. Called it a night after I extracted from that Reaper game.
That's what happen when you get into a laggy host i think, I don't know why lag act so differently in this game... i mean, can't it be a simple delay in your actions like every other online games out there rather than making things invisible and preventing you from using ladders and cover?

It seems like every time I see a match bug/lag/whatever out like that, it's either on condor or reactor. As if unknown/unknown weren't scary enough, right?

honestly after months of not using it, the acolyte x is probably the best gun in the game. its usable for every class and it staggers all normal enemies.
I bring it on every load out and its a life saver. you can fire it into a large group and it clears out everyone.
I use it now in place of shotguns as its just so damn powerful.

The numbers aren't big to be honest, i can't give a number but all i know is that 360 have the most players, followed by PC and PS3(although i guess its Wii U now) is dead last.
Creating my own lobby on PC can take a while before i find a full group, to the point where i think my lobby is glitched when i can't find a single player after a few mins, but looking for a quick match usually takes a few secs thankfully.

im playing a lot less than I was before. the drop rate is just too low to keep me interested.
Ouch.
WTB: Incendiary IV and Cyclonic IV.
Completed the challenge stupid fast on Glacier Hazard/Reapers/Gold using the Asari Sentinel. Valiant V.
I'm playing less too, but that's because other games (finally) came out.
N7 Valkyrie III get.
Yep, tell me about it. I spent a majority of the week (~5-7H/day for 5 days) I had off due to (post-)Hurricane Sandy to try to get the Turian Ghost and get some Harrier upgrades, got nothing.
Because of college and me getting annoyed with the 360 version, I only play for the weekend operations.

I get all the new characters asap as everything on my manifest is maxed out except for UR's. That's why all i get is level IV consumables. So for example when the huntress came out i had 2 x PSPs to get her maxed...
then back to level IV consumables again...

I gave my Huntress a Black Widow VII, which I never use because Im more of a shotgun kinda guy.
I pretty much run her as a regular sniper with Dark Channel. DC works so well against Phantoms (my mortal enemy).

how are your cooldowns with that? with a biotic class or a class dependent on powers I usually roll with an acolyte.

I added the High Velocity Barrel to the Widow, for even more weight!
Usually I cloak, tag the target with Dark Channel (use power while invisible), fire the three BW shots, reload and then cloak is ready to go again. Weight hasnt really been an issue, though I dont use warp/bio explosions at all. I just tag with Dark Channel and snipe.
Can anyone confirm the armor piercing of the High Velocity Barrel and the Sniper Rifle Piercing Mod will stack? Both descriptions say they will ignore 65% of defences on armored targets, so together, thats well over 100%, right?

I mostly like AP/HVB on the Javelin because it lets me shoot through everything. Hell, paired with Phasic Ammo it also let's me kill everything with a body-shot.
Played a game this morning. Noticed two Geth Troopers so I switched to my aggressive Geth Engineer. Fire Explosions everywhere. I forgot how much fun a Geth Engie with a Piranha is.

Everything on Condor is hard. Thats why its the worst map in the game. Or maybe that honor goes to London?
Either way, my condolences.
London isn't bad. Condor just has sparse cover and everything is so open.
Also....from my victory pack, I got all equipment/consumables. Spectre Packs, all equipment...Commendation I managed to get a valkyrie.

There's always only 2 hazard maps at once, they change them every week.
