    Re: Mass Effect Discussion

    Obviously, I'm really late thanks to a previously dead 360

    but I echo everyone's comments when I say "Damn you to hell Benezia!"

    Took me damn near an hour to beat that chick.

        I wouldn't say she was that hard to beat though I did spend a while stuck and unable to move for some damn reason >_<.

          Same thing happened to me too. The first four times I tried the battle as soon as you see the first cut-scene of reinforcements showing up my character would go comatose and die immediately. Nothing I could do to prevent it. Felt like a glitch. The fifth time, that didn't happen and I beat her with no problems.

            That's a move that the Asari use to keep you from moving.

            I'm pretty sure you can do it yourself if you have the ability.

            It keeps you frozen and I believe it also stops you from using medi-gel. Because I had a fun time running around in circles avoiding gun fire while trying to heal myself. And that's what made it so hard. Enemies came at me from all directions and there wasn't much cover.

              Benezia wasn't hard once I figured out that hitting her was pointless. Once I started focusing on the Asari it was easy as hell.

              If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                Agreed. That's exactly how I felt. Except it took me about 30 minutes to figure out that hitting Benezia was pointless...oops.

                  I'm gonna disagree if the power you're referring to is Stasis. When someone is affected by Stasis they cannot be damaged. So, I think it's a glitch too.

                    What do you mean they can not be damaged?

                    I've seen my Asari use the move on two Krogans. I walked up to them and stared at their faces and they couldn't do a thing to me. They were frozen so I shot them to death.

                      Reading the description of Stasis says this.

                        Yeah, Stasis is a form of crowd control...basically take a guy out of the equation so you can focus on him later. He can't hurt you, but you can't hurt him either.

                        You see this type of thing in MMORPG's all the time. In those there are also "sleep" spells that put a guy to sleep (he won't attack anyone), but if you hit him he wakes up. It all adds up for interesting battlefield control depending on how you want to play.

                          Agreed on the Benezia fight. Granted, I had accidentally read online to not shoot her until after you dispose of the asari's, but I beat it first try rather handily. Having the lift and throw abilities made it so easy.

                              You most definately are. I've spent 22 hours so far because I've been doing the side missions. The game has me immersed.
