 Yeah the N7 armor is bad ***. Debating about that though, if anything at least the N7 shirt.Comment

 Re: Mass Effect Discussion
 
 Just picked this up for $8 from GameStop. Never played it but I wanted to finish the storymode before Mass Effect 2 comes out.
 
 Any tips? I'm already planning on running through it on the Casual difficulty. I didn't think I'd be a big fan of this game but playing through Dragon Age made me interested in it. Funny how things happen sometimes.Comment

 Re: Mass Effect Discussion
 
 What kind of character are you using? I'd assume you probably went with soldier since you are trying to run through it? As for tips, aside from those that depend on your character, there isn't a whole lot to say. The game is pretty straight forward and on casual, you should have no trouble.Just picked this up for $8 from GameStop.

 If you are planning to port your character over however, you'll obviously want to do all the side quests, etc...they can get pretty (okay VERY...lol) repetitive. One thing is, explore as much of the dialogue as you can and put points into either persuade or intimidation depending on your alignment (it's worth it for interesting story arc alone, but you also get some merchant bonuses for each).
 
 Also, you get the most benefit for building your character from going either straight paragon or renegade, but if you are just running through it, it's fun to just let fly based on your mood (one minute your preaching patience, the next you've got a gun pulled on someone for not answering quick enough!)

 Re: Mass Effect Discussion
 
 I just picked this up about a week ago as well. I'm playing as a Vanguard, i did some side mission for a politician and she offered to pay me but I declined and got some type of weapon's license saying something about rare items showing up. Is there a certain shop that has better weapons than other shops?Comment

 You get more XP by getting out the Mako to kill things. Not reccomended for the Thresher Maws though.Just picked this up for $8 from GameStop. Never played it but I wanted to finish the storymode before Mass Effect 2 comes out.

 There's a get rich quick scheme. After you help the doctor the second time you can sell your stuff to her and then buy it back for less from the Volus on the other side.
 
 It'll probably take 3 playthroughs for level 60.
 
 The shops level up with you. You still have to buy the lisences though and there's better lisences. However the requestions officer on your ship usually has the best stuff but for the most part you can find things anywhere.I just picked this up about a week ago as well.

 Re: Mass Effect Discussion
 
 Thanks, I've been going full-stream lately with the side missions and everything, I'm up to level 35 and over 1M credits some of the "Spectre" level weapons are starting to show up in shops now, are those the highest weapons?Comment

 Re: Mass Effect Discussion
 
 Yes they are,those would've opened up after you got the Rich achievement so you can have those at any level. Not to spoil anything but depending on your results on Virmire there's a limited time shop you'll be able to get something from on your ship,across from the req officer.
 
 That's the best you can get any time,it only goes to level X. They just get a lot more common on the second playthrough since you'd be at or around level 50 to start.Comment

 Edit: I have a question. I ran through most of my gamw with (Spell?)Gauras(Turian) and Wrex(Krogan) yet I never recieved the achievement for it? Did I do something wrong?Last edited by Candyman5; 01-04-2010, 09:07 PM.PS4 Twitch: http://www.twitch.tv/candyman5os

 No, it's a glitchy achievement. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.Comment
