Stick a fork in it

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.


Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

I'm so addicted to MP it's a little ridiculous. Always play with friends only, and almost always with another mun that RP's Mordin. Used to be a shotgun-wielding Vanguard until I embraced and loved the Sniper Rifle.

I play Turian Sentinel/Soldier (what a surprise) and Salarian Engineer. With the Sentinel and Engineer I roll with a Black Widow, it's amazing. Waiting on a Salarian Infiltrator now. I have everything but that, Asari Adept, and Krogan Sentinel unlocked.

How do you get past the -9% power reload with black widow on engineer? I've noticed if I use anything besides just an assault rifle on engie I get massive reload delays.

But then my play style is turret then incinerate, so power reload is my lifeblood and I'm sure there's different playstyles out there!

On the Salarian Engineer there's a bonus that reduces the weight of Sniper Rifles by 30%, which is nice. The reload delay doesn't bother me that much, though - since I don't really spam powers with the class. I have Incinerate maxed out but I don't use it much outside of with banshee, brute, and ravager.

I tend to use Energy Drain (also maxed out) more, but usually to just stagger enemies / gain back shields. 4 ranks in decoy, which also helps in mission objectives but it doesn't need to be spammed much. With classes that do need powers spammed I just switch to a Carnifex or something lighter.

Ahhhh, I don't think I've used salarian engineer before so I didn't know about that. Thanks for the explanation! I figure I should branch out a little more.

No problem!

I've been trying to branch out more lately, too. The salarian was sort of gem for me, didn't expect to like it this much.

Haven't used the quarian Engineer yet - I just unlocked her last night!

THE BLACK WIDOW IS AMAZING.

I've been blasting through silvers with it on my human infiltrator maxed out for maximum damage in cloak. It's so satisfying to obliterate a brute in like two well-placed shots.

It's pretty heavy though, but I don't even use powers. I've maxed out everything while putting nothing into incinerate at all, just relying on cloak and nasty sniper shots with a sticky grenade or two here and there.
