The Adept is definitely getting that one. The others however have a whole world of knee-related puns and jokes open to them. Though Yakobo's Arrow-one definitely made me laugh out loud.

I dunno, Niftu feels like a Vanguard if you egg him on and he charges the Asari.

Okay, I'm done now. Eeee, can't wait to unlock that geth soldier. 'Old Machine Harbinger, we are your doom.' /sights down an N7 Valkyrie

The vanguard needs to be called it, because you know it flies at them.

Volus facts I've gathered so far:

-No cover mechanic. But you're short enough to just stand under most of it anyway.
-No melee. The light melee is replaced by a 2-3 second WTF-moment cloak. Not certain about the heavy replacement.
-Base health is 150. If you max out the health/shield branch of Fitness, you get 166 hp. The guy in the stream mentioned 850 max shield, but unsure if it's with or without Fitness. So squishy!

From what I saw in a thread linked on the previous page, volus are the ultimate support unit--they can instaheal allies and refill their shields, and don't need a cover mechanic due to being so short.

Maybe we should make Rupe Elcoss fight in one or two battles, the smarmy little git.

Level 20 doing silver

Unless they stay as 2-man.

**Nerraw** · 2012-10-09, 04:28 PM

Volus also appear to have a very limited carrying capacity, worse than any of the other characters. They can carry anything, but your cooldowns will love you more if you stick to pistols and SMGs.

At least you don't have to do chores RIGHT AS THE BIGGEST MOTHERFRAKKING DLC COMES OUT.

I'll be back in a bit. -.-

ME4 Normandy better feature a swimming pool.

You mean where Steve have his shuttles now?
Nah, but the room where we had Snookie Allers.

But that's where we throw all the people we pick up...
And where would Zaeed keep his gunz when we transport him to his asteroid?

I don't think Zaeed would appreciate that, giving his old room to Allers was bad enough.

Also, ME4, I really, really hope lets you pick your race and your class and features Shep or Hackett (depending on whether or not Shepard survived in your ME3 file) as a supporting character a la Anderson in 1.

**Gravath** · 2012-10-09, 04:59 PM

I think Zaeed would be the first one to grab a seat by the swimming pool.
You remember that epilogue image of him in a poolchair?
Thats in Normandy.
You heard it here first.

Grunt and Garrus would totally get into swimming competitions (hell, Vega would probably join in). Legion would be off to the side lamenting not being buoyant enough to swim.
