    Ugh, this. Today I even saw one teleporting at me, started running away, and about 10-15 feet away I suddenly lost control of my character, he started walking backwards, and once I got to the banshee she did the impale move, only my body was backwards from how it usually is. I was not pleased.

    All low-level Drell Adepts only using Vindicators is a terrible terrible thing.

    Quarian Infiltrator w/ Widow is starting to rival Asari Adept w/ Statis Bubble as my favorite class.

    I picked up Mass Effect 3 last night so I will be available for Multiplayer over the weekend. I'm sure I'll be school'd on how bad I truly am online.

    I'm loving my quarian Infiltrator, though I would like to get a hold the Viper. Not a big fan of the turian Sentinel I unlocked a couple nights ago. Feels like he moves too slow, what with the lack of combat/evade rolls. Plus I'm not really sure on the Tech Armor. It looks cool, but I don't feel like it gives me any extra protection. Is there something I'm missing regarding the TA?

    my xbox gametag is: shumworld

    So far the only classes I haven't unlocked is the Krogan Soldier/Sentinel and the Asari/Drell Adept. I've made pretty fun builds, but I've learned that I'm a beast with my Soldier class armed with the Collector Riffle.

    I also have a Asari Vanguard who is armed with the Paladin Pistol.

    Though I never beat gold, if I could team up with a few good players to gain the Unwavering achievement. that would be awesome.

    Victory Pack is available from Operation Goliath, everyone gets this regardless if they played any multiplayer. The Commendation Pack, finish a Reaper based game on Silver or higher, should be available to those players later tonight. There's also a special pack, a premium version of the pack below spectre for 33,000 credits. It has two uncommon and a higher chance for a rare.

    I got a shotgun in the Victory pack and a sniper and smg upgrade in the premium.

    Locust II in the Victory pack. If SMGs in general werent comparatively worthless, the Locust especially I'd be excited.

    Wife got the Claymore in hers. I was jealous.

    The victory pack gave me stuff I already had. Though the Premium Spectre Pack was unexpected, here's hopping I get the remaining races and maybe some new custom features for the rare classes like the Drell.

    I got the N7 sniper rifle, which does little for me, and the M25 (or 35, I think) SMG. Not very exciting either.

    I got the N7 pistol, put it on one class but it doesn't seem much better than the others. I'm an smg guy for the classes I use the abilities for kills and assault rifles for most other classes. I usually only have one weapon per class to keep the weight down (200% recharge with the smgs).

    Found this list of the items and their rarity levels.

    I play with mine (soon lv 19). Well the TA does increas your armor, but the Turian wins in his abilety to use his overloaqd. Even on silver a hit with that maxed out on stealt geth, flame geth, Centurion and so on takes away their shild completely. Then it is just to go berserk with the gun.

    I play mine with honly the assult rifle to get the recharge speed up fast.

    On the note of weapons: I have baissicly just been buying the recruit pack to uppgrade the weapons. I have two level 10 weapons at the momment. Downside is that it is only the reguler shotgun and assultrifle, but still.

    I seem to be missing something on the controls.
    I thought if you had medigel you could revive yourself if you were down and no one got to you.

    I had two last night and when I was down I hit right on the D-pad like crazy but never revived. Yet, when Cerberus dropped an Atlas I press up on the D-pad and equipped my missile launcher.

    Do I understand the system correctly?

    Pressing right gives you health and shields, pressing down revives you.

    It's only while you're bleeding out also, after that you're dead. Also if you get insta-killed, no good. Like those damn banshees, and I think brutes have an insta-kill, too.

    Got the N7 Pistol from the Commendation Pack. It's ok, but I prefer the single shot stopping power of the Carnifex or the Arc. Victory Pack didn't have anything to note.

    Promoted my Infiltrators last night. Wanted to reset my builds. Still no Turian unlocks yet...
