I give all the female characters an asian sounding name because there's a strangely small amount of asians in the ME universe when logically they'd probably be the majority
My Quarian Engineer is BEEFY MCROIDS It's funny because Quarians aren't beefy
The Revenant may seem like a handheld pneumatic drill to most races, but with a Turian Soldier it's a minigun that mows down even the toughest of opponents. Turians are underrated. And if you have Turian Soldier but not a Revenant, use the Phaeston or the Tempest (Yes the SMG, it works pretty well).
I find the Tempest is really good on all of my low weight capacity classes. I use it on all my engineers and adepts. With the clip capacity upgrade and the heat sink it can fire for a long time and does decent damage. At least on Silver.

I frequently top the scoreboard using nothing but guns. I wonder if the Hurricane would be any good if you specced all points into accuracy. [editline]31st March 2012[/editline] When I unlock the Tempest and lightweight materials I'm gonna use it alongside the Phaeston I currently wield. Only problem right now is ammo running out.
Horay, Krogan Sentinel and Turian Sentinel in the same pack, too bad I already have both. At least it's less xp for me to farm to reprocess them for the event. Anyways what pack contains the Mattock? I just started using it but I only have rank 1 on it and I've been buying tons of all packs.

You need to get two different classes to level 20 and promote them both. [editline]31st March 2012[/editline] I had to powerlevel soldier to level 20. HUMAN SOLDIER IS THE MOST BORING CLASS EVER!
The promoting thing might stop me from playing MP. The only classes I had near 20 were Adept and Engineer. Salarian Engineer is my favorite class in MP and now he's level 1 and I just don't feel like playing it now.

I name my chars Derp, Herp, TerpleDerp, DurrDerr. I don't really care tbh, no one sees it.
It's most likely been asked plenty of times before but is there a good place to get some character builds for multiplayer? Just got my hands on an Asari vanguard and I'm not sure how to spec it. Also what shotgun? I have pretty much all of them and I'm using the Disciple at the moment.
[QUOTE=voodooattack;35364640]I've always been thinking of what to say to machines when they finally come to get us organics, and here's what I've come up with (and plan on saying before I go down): ( •_•) "You can't make steel without carbon..." ( •_•)>⌐■-■ "And diamonds are harder than steel." (⌐■_■)[/QUOTE] not necessarily as diamonds used to be split with cleavers made out of steel as they do not have much strength as such, they are just very hard (as in very few things can scratch or wear them away) (still quite strong but not exceptionally). Also, you dont need carbon to make steel, iron can be alloyed with chromium, platnium, palladium etc to make styles of steel and also diamonds thermally decompose into graphite around ~700 C wheas many types of steel alloys can go much higher [B][B][B][B][I][I][I][I][I][U][U][U][U][I][U]the more you know[/U][/I][/U][/U][/U][/U][/I][/I][/I][/I][/I][/B][/B][/B][/B]

Upgrading stability in the Turian Veteran power, rate of fire in Marksman and headshot damage in both turns you into a walking Cerberus turret with the Tempest even on Silver. Turian Soldier is the only class I bother using SMGs with unless it's the fully upgraded Shuriken. As for the assault rifles, I've found the Phaeston is too heavy and weak at the moment compared to my Tempest with lightweight materials, but Marksman works well with the Vindicator so long as you don't have maximum stability and the stability dampener with Marksman specced to high fire rate. Proximity Mine is a bloody good power as well, once you learn to use them like Mass Effect 1's disc grenades. Launch it at cover with an enemy behind it and it detonates immediately, damaging and staggering regardless of that cover. Doesn't work on Guardians, but you can get around that by putting it on the floor on either side of them or launching it at an enemy behind them. It's also incredibly useful against the top tier Cerberus and Reaper enemies (Phantoms, Atlases, Ravagers, Brutes, Banshees) and Cannibals crowded around corpses, once it's upgraded to increase damage done from all sources.
i just bashed random keys on my keyboard for all my character names because i don't have time to come up with something creative
My Krogan Soldier is named Badassfully. And my 2 Salarians are named Gilbert and Sullivan. One of my Asari is called Fornax.
My Quarian Engineer is simply called "Face". HNNNNNNNNGGG Just unlocked the Javelin.

I picked up mass effect 1 for cheap. Garrus is low-res and Anderson looks like a potato Are there any mods for it? I found a hi-res texmod pack but it sometimes causes visual glitches like messed up text in menus.
gaydain is about to be nuclear dust on the stream

Oh god I started using my old Revenant I had dusting in my inventory, holy fuck the damage it shits out it's fucking amazing.
I have a Incisior fucking 4. And I just got the Falcon.
[QUOTE=Dominicus;35371757]JeanLuc [url=http://facepunch.com/threads/1052033]fixed[/url] that for you.[/QUOTE] Thanks. I'm always reminded I need to get the Garrus face fix when I start playing ME1, so I tell myself I'll install it before I start playing again. This happens over and over because I forget to install and I can't be assed to close the game when it's already running.

[QUOTE=Fayez;35371892]I have a Incisior fucking 4. And I just got the Falcon.[/QUOTE] I have the Incisor rank 6, still deals no damage at all.
[QUOTE=Fayez;35371892]I have a Incisior fucking 4. And I just got the Falcon.[/QUOTE] I got the Incisor yesterday. It's quite neat.
