Did it on Insanity with a Vanguard as well. Not sure what level I was, but I wasn't anywhere near Level 30 at the time. | ||

On another note, damn insanity is hard. I usually play through RPG on normal cause I care more about story, but insanity is actually providing a fun, if sometimes frustrating, challenge. I do notice that I almost never use Unity in normal, but have to use it all the time in insanity. | ||

Anyway, I can freely import all my ME1 chars, but I seem to have a problem with my ME2 char. The game doesn't recognise that I completed it before. It only recognises to some point, and after that all my saves seem to have either not worked or disappeared all together. Previously, I had Zaleed DLed(and some other cerb card dlc - dont remember, this time I don't. Usually that would be a pretty clear sign that without the DLC the game doesn't recognise I did complete it. But my problem is here: I installed those DLCs before playing even a single minute of the game itself. I'm very confused it recognises say a save made 25h into the game, but not the 38h save. Why? Any help would be appreciated. | ||

The only point at which the combat became challenging was when I played on Insanity, at which point you actually have to start playing tactically and think your way through some battles. QFT It was a very nice challenge. One thing that helped a lot though, was the DLC. The DLC armor and weapons are way better than the box weapons (besides the Widow, that's still the best sniper). | ||

Doesn't help that your partners are oft-times dumb as bricks. My first major problem was the fight on the colony planet, defending the gun vs the waves of Prothean, husks and the abominations. The husks and Abom waves were the hardest for sure. Waves upon waves of them, with the near instakill shockwaves to boot. | ||

Mass Effect: Retribution just came out and I'm devouring my iPod batteries. Drew Karpyshyn is my hero. I read the first two, and I'm reading Retribution right now. I can't put it down. I've been staying up wayyyyy too late reading it every night. Lol On September 29 2010 00:09 Obsidian wrote: Some of the fights on Insanity are truly...

If you just stand in the doorway, you can pick off the Scions without any Husks spawning. Then for the Praetorian, put your allies somewhere safe, and move around between his laser bursts. Since the allies have infinite ammo, they'll eventually take him down. I always ran out of ammo trying to take them out by myself. | ||

You dont play mass effect for its awe inspiring combat. <,< Thats why i play on normal. Cba to have challenging combat in a bioware game. But i do agree that if you want it challenging you should do that. On September 24 2010 10:35 Ferrose wrote: I actually carried over my character. I did all of Insanity with a level 30 Infiltrator.

Never happened for me and I'm disappointed about it. I was playing on Insanity and expecting some hardcore turnaround and it just didn't come. | ||

Myself + Miranda + Garrus/Zaeed can wreck any army in seconds. edit: Adept is sooo fun to play btw. You can almost launch baddies into orbit. Pick em up, then throw and angle it to hit them below and... WHEEEE!!! they fly off into the distance. Time it with another teammate who has throw and you can even launch krogans like 4 stories in the air. | ||
