It's bad wording on Bioware's part. It just means that the Turian engineer is now available as a card you can pull from the store and you can also earn the Turian engineer challenge by playing the character once you unlock it.
Thanks, thats kind of what I thought, since I could already see him in my list, but wanted to make sure.
That Saboteur is, meh.
I could not believe they buffed the Huntress. The cloaked damage from DC is INSANE, it is not updated yet, but I think the calculation has her DC doing about 1k dmg per sec to Barrier and a little less than that to Armor. Plus her Heavy Melee is amazing. HERE is a video of some dude using it in action. HERE is a link to the build I will be using for her. Throw in the occasional Biotic Explosion for good measure.
Well if you have her unlocked already, you should try the platinum solo with it before they nerf her.
Slow down now sparky. Have you seen Platinum? My brain cannot process information that quickly! Not to mention those solos take like an hour or more. Silver perhaps...
Well that build does not work for me. Tried it last night and I do not like her Heavy melee. Turns out I don't have the balls to run into a spawn and blow that heavy melee. The few times I did try, I died a horrific death. I like playing more conservatively than that. Back to a 66653 for me.
I should be. Chubby and I came across another older player in a PUG the other night (Oz) that was good to play with. Hopefully we can get a group going.
@Wikiri, gonna leave Pandora for a bit? =-P
