Bahroo3 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) A small guide the Resurgence DLC. What do I get from this DLC? This DLC contains - 6 new Characters to play as - 3 New Guns - 2 New Maps The Characters and Guns must be unlocked via reinforcement packs. All itmes unlocked are Rare(gold) so you will need to buy Spectre packs or better to unlock them. There is also a very small chance to get them from Veteran Packs. How much is this DLC? This DLC is free. Weapons Striker - Assault Rifle Weapons Damage - 144.7 - 180.9 Weight - 2.0 - 1.4 Clip Size - 12 Reserve Ammo - 48 - 60 This weapon has a slow RoF but will increase the longer you hold down the trigger so increased clip size is recommended. Sadly this gun is NOT a hitscan weapon so much like the Falcon this gun will suck if you are not host. Recommend use with Turian Soldier with Cyro rounds and Clip/Damage Mods Geth Plasma SMG Weapon Damage - 16.1 - 20.1 Weight - 0.65 - 0.3 Clip Size - 100 Reserve Ammo - 600 - 800 Like the Geth Pulse Rifle this gun has little to no recoil or spread and can deal very fast damage when "Charged up". This gun will fire almost 3x faster once it has fired for 3 seconds. Due to it's very low weight this is a great gun for power classes that want something new to try out, sadly like all SMGs this thing will do jack shit on armor. Kishok Harpoon - Sniper Rifle Weapon Damage - 645 - 806.8 Weight - 2 - 1.4 Clip Size - 1 Reserve - 15 - 25 - Fires an arcing projectile, account for this when aiming at heads - Has a 300% headshot multiplier(compared to the normal 250%) to account for increased difficulty in scoring headshots. - Delivers 80% of it's damage on hit. - Delivers 20% of it's total damage in bleeding damage over 10 seconds. - Fully charged shots deal 1.5x standard damage. This gun is basically a dumbed down version of the Widow. It only has one shot, can't pierce even with mods, does less damage, AND IS NOT HITSCAN. This means if you are not host you will need to lead your target by about 1-2 seconds based on lag so have fun trying to get a headshot on anything. New Characters *Only New Abilities will have detailed info* Geth Eng/Infil These 2 both have Hunter Mode/Networked AI Networked AI Advanced combat platform fine-tunes powers and weapons, especially geth weapons.

OptimusPrime76 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I did enjoy the MP in this game but with no new achievements I cannot really find any reason to go back and play it now I've finished the main story. I played it mainly to build my galactic readiness and as an easier way to unlock the gunsmith achievement and to import a level 20 character to my war assets. What other reason is their to play it now? I do need more kills towards the 5,000 kills achievement but to be honest I'd rather have more run throughs of the campaign. To many randoms getting in my way trying to get all the kills on the mp. If they want to give me a reason to keep playing the MP then more achievements would be a start.

To be honest, even though I love the MP a lot it can get a bit stale after a awhile even though I like to play around with random class/weapon setups and try to have fun. Sadly with all of the host lag issues and no new enemy types or objectives I find it hard to play with randoms anymore since after playing the same faction and hacking the same damn terminal over and over again it just gets a little boring. I hope that in the future they add Collectors or other enemy types or like you said achievements. I don't see this happening since they have tried very hard to keep most achievements (outside of Defender) in SP with the option to do MP. EDIT: If you re lookinh for something to do in SP you always try out this challenge. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=364409 Edited April 11, 2012 by Bahroo3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I was thinking. Are you actually invincible then? Can anyone get headshot medals while using the harpoon, because I'm not even though I'm getting headshots.

jules the great Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I had a chance to play one map yesterday, pretty good actually. Almost forgot this was even out until late yesterday. Good guide man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madhatter1 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I like Firebase Hydra a lot. There's a room nearby where you start the map on that has excellent fields of fire across pretty much the whole map. It's also pretty defensible as it only has two side entrances. If you need to bail on your position, since the map is so large, you can put a lot of distance between yourself and the horde. I didn't like Firebase Condor. It felt way to porous. I found it difficult to get solid cover and there were just too many hodge-podge pathways. It's also a dark map. I found it difficult to assess my surroundings. One nice thing about it is theme. Cool that it's the moon near Palaven and the visuals are stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone get headshot medals while using the harpoon, because I'm not even though I'm getting headshots. All DR is multiplicative. You can figure out the total DR like this: (1-DR) * (1-DR) ..... For example, if you had a 30% DR bubble with 40% tech armor it would look like: (1.0 - 0.3) * (1.0 - 0.4) = 0.7*0.6 = 0.42 Now if you add Rage it will look like this (1.0 - 0.3) * (1.0 - 0.3) * (1.0 - 0.4) = 0.7*0.7*0.6 = 0.294 This means you take 29.4%% of the damage, so 70.6% damage reduction. Now IF MULTIPLE BUBBLES STACKED In a perfect world and had 4 justicars it would look like this (1.0 - 0.4) * (1.0 - 0.4) * (1.0 - 0.4) * (1.0 - 0.4) *(1.0 - 0.4) * = 0.6*0.6*0.6*0.6*0.6 = 0.07776% This mean you would have 99.92224 Damage Reduction. This would make it nearly impossible to die . Again the 99.9% is if multiple bubbles stack(unconfirmed) and the 70.6% is confirmed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madhatter1 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Let's just hope they had a good development and QA team to ensure the game doesn't break down due to people being 99.9% immune to damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't get stale at all. Side comment, I did Firebase White Gold last night with my Salarian Engineer. I used my decoy to good effect. Whereas the team I was with a couple days ago was able to do it without, with it - it was a breeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
