I remember doing random platinum once and we got collectors. To our surprise, collectors were easier on platinum than they are on gold. We even extracted in the end.

You get the other races mixed in, so yeah.
Marauders and other infantry are often more dangerous than the "bosses" because their auto weapons just hit so hard, fast and accurate.

God i hate marauders! they are such a buzzkill when you are stunned by melee and shot down :P

Had a Centurion bug out on us last night. Became immune to gunfire,direct melee and powers. He was also the last guy standing so he was just in full out aggressive mode. It was pretty hilarious watching everyone run for their life and then him chasing them with his stun blade relentlessly and unmercifully. One guy even tried a missile launcher to escape his wrath. He managed to die though once he started chasing me since Batarian Soldiers have that thorns ability and it would actually hurt him thankfully.

So I was going through my MP characters and found I had a turian havoc I had forgotten about!

I played him and realized I don't like him. I told him to cover and he's like "nah, gonna rocket jump that way!"

**CrossNgen** · 2012-12-08, 03:22 AM

Heheh

**Duncanîdaho** · 2012-12-08, 03:41 AM

^ Needs more Infiltrat0rN7. Still made me laugh though.

The easiest way to kill enemies like that is to push/kite them off the edge of the map

Got tired of pugs being dumb in gold/plat(though I don't really play plat anymore...too much stress), so I decided to be kroguard(I mainly play vanguards now, or the jetpack turians) and just not die, ever. Feels good man. Charge and melee all but banshees, brutes and Praetorians.

So much carnage...

Edit: Not the actual skill named carnage, just, so much juggernaut mode.

**Grizzly Willy** · 2012-12-08, 05:08 AM

Always melee brutes as vanguard! That's the best part! Well, that and biotic explosion combos with charge.

I can't blame him. The rocket jump dodges look fun.

Limiting Chaos effect by Order - you maintain balance. You Chaotically destroy the building, but thanks to Orderly made explosives, destruction doesn't go out of hand.

I realize that this philosophical system may be hard to fathom. Chaos may look like Order, or Order like Chaos. Just look at the deeds at the time they happen, and ignore reasons and consequences. Destroy == Chaos. Create == Order. Balance is achieved when Chaos ~ Order.

It's not hard to understand, it's just wrong. Period. Destruction is not chaos. It's a false equivalency. Destruction is the concept of damage to an object, system, or being. Nothing about that is inherently chaotic.

Everything about destruction is inherently chaotic. Even damage is inherently chaotic. Damaged system/object - has higher chance of malfunctions. It is more chaotic. Damage adds chaos into a system. Destruction turns system into "rubble" - that is pure chaos. It can be done in the name of order. But it is still chaotic act.

Is it chaotic for a surgeon to do a precision cut on someones skin to cut out a tumor? The actions behind the act determine if something is chaos or order.

Yes, for cutting skin, Yes, for cutting out tumor.

Did you mean the "goal" by "actions"? because "actions behind the act" - is nonsense. Actions are the act.
Well, no, goal doesn't determine the nature of actions. Goal determines the nature of the result.
1. "You can't make an omelet without breaking some eggs." "breaking eggs" is an act of Chaos. The resulting omelet is a thing of Order.
2. "The end justifies the means". You can say - "I saved ten people by killing one man!". Yeah, you saved ten, but still you killed one.

Thanks for that, good to know. It felt like our team was fighting Shepard himself, now I know how they feel. He killed everyone but me with us also using medi-gels lol.
