clarification from the event poster on Bioware Social Network.


To be clear, the player group can only be comprised of krogans, vorcha or batarians. If there are humans, geth or quarians in the group, it will NOT count.

You can have an all vorcha squad or a mix of krogans and batarians or all 3 races, just ONLY those 3 races.

Solo Matched DO count and NO, full extraction is NOT needed.

There is confusion over the Allied and Squad goals.
Allied Goal can be ANY race
Squad Goal MUST be only krogan, batarian or vorcha or a combination of those races

Did a solo bronze for the Squad Goal. Internet's too shoddy up in the mountains for a good connection. How I even pulled off the Mastiff squad goal was a freaking miracle of a connection maintenance.

Apologies for how disorganized that was. Unfortunately, I'll have to do it over again since my "pausing" has screwed me over.

I know enough though to say that the ending is "better" now. Still not the ending I would've liked, but better than just picking a color. The choices are all still dumb as far as I'm concerned.

That's just my opinion though. Going to check out the Control ending now, I guess.

Destruction doesn't outright show EDI's death? I'm disappointed a bit, actually. That should've been the biggest hit after that choice. I always pictured her in the copilot seat, slowly disintegrating while Joker desperately tried to outrun the wave. Would've made for an amazingly dramatic moment.

Would have been hilarious. Like the spontaneously combusting robot on Futurama.

Well, played the new DLC ending. I only played two of the endings, but I'm actually somewhat satisfied. I didn't replay the entire Cerberus/Earth assault sequence (rather, my girlfriend wants to watch me play Mass Effect 1-3, so I'm gonna have to go through this thing again anyhow), but instead the final sequence. And yanno what? The minor changes, added bits of dialogue and so on actually worked.
I wasn't one who thought the original endings were crap, but this makes the ending feel more complete.

As for what I went through...
Green Ending


New Ending!

Replaying as an Adept. Wow, combat progresses a lot faster and smoother now. Looking forward to taking on the Asari Reapers.

warp -> throw -> biotic explosion -> repeat. It's that freaking easy.

Ow...took 3 tries, but I completed the squad goal with a PUG group with full extraction. Good luck.

The new Vanguard looks pretty cool. It is always a fun class to play as even though it is not always the most effective on higher difficulties. :(

Sentinel Shield looks interesting.

I would be amazed if a Soldier class ended up being fun to play.

Not sure how I feel about an Infiltrator with a tech version of Shockwave.

I wish the videos showed a better idea of how the new Adept would play. :(

The Soldier looks like it might be fun.

If there's any class that needs a good character, it's the Soldier class.

Honestly though, there isn't much to show for the new Engineer aka Demolisher. You can see it in action in this vid though:

[utube]watch?v=9-trO6K-iuE[/utube]

(Skip to 5:58 mark to see the Demolisher)

It's most intriguing ability is the Supply Pylon, which discharges grenade and ammo reloads wherever you place it. Perfect for camping.

Imagine this.

1 Demolisher, pylon hypothetical specced for ammo.
1 Demolisher, pylon hypothetical specced for grenades.
1 Geth Engineer, Geth Turret specced for Shield Support.
1 Asari Justicar, Barrier specced for maximum defense.

I finally have some understanding of the Krysae.

It shoots proximity grenades that work best when detonated mid-air, preferably after narrowly missing someone's head and detonating right next to it. I guess I was spamming shots toward the ground before trying to catch enemies in splash damage treating it like a rocket launcher. I now understand that is not the proper way of it.

So... airburst rounds. In any case, for clearing Reapers on Gold difficulty, Firebase White is the easiest to do it on, especially if you camp that top area near the T-intersection. Gives you plenty of space to back up into and funnels the enemies into easy-to-attack junctions. At least two biotic spammers will help, with one engineer to go off and get the objectives while the bulk of the enemies spawn on the main group.

I used the Geth Gold farming spot(Two people in the enclosed corner of the lower room, and another two behind the console looking straight at the middle exit) for my reapers gold. The banshees would try to leap the barricade closest to the door and fail, ensuring a constant zone of biotic explosions.

I had a group that tried that first, but I personally didn't like the lack of wiggle room there. We probably didn't have a good team comp during that run either, but eh.

I feel claustrophobic in that room sometimes so I'll use the cover just outside of the room to take out enemies coming down the outside steps. It also makes a good grab point too.

I unlocked the N7 Fury and an Ex-Cerberus Vanguard tonight.

I like how Smash can hit through cover. I can better understand why some people like using that class in Firebase White, particularly when the room gets congested.

The Fury is kind of strange but seems pretty effective. I just used Dark Channel like Warp and then used Throw for combos. I didn't use the Annihilation Field because going close range with an Adept seems like a bad idea. I like the new SMG mod that increases stability so the N7 SMG actually seems decent now.

One of the Annihilation Field level 6 gives you a decent reason to go into melee range with bigger targets.(Damage Dealt to Armor/Shields/Barriers recharges your own barrier)

I ran into someone for the first time doing the missile launcher cheat. I confess that my first impression was that somehow the Striker X must be one hell of an upgrade until I started looking up info online.

I've bought several PSPs and the RNG keeps screwing me over. I've maxed out several weapons and a couple characters, but still no N7 Destroyer.

I've even resorted to buying Microsoft Points in an attempt to get it. Thankfully I had the money to spare, but since I've clearly gone crazy...

This game is going to be put away and never touched again.

I'm convincing myself I need more social gaming; are you guys all still regularly playing this? I may just suck up my disappointment over the single player ending and join you soon, despite having no weapons and only a few classes leveled up/unlocked.
