OK, corrections:

- Well first of all, I got the name of the game wrong in the first sentence of the video lmao. I said "Mass Effect..." when I meant to say "Mass Effect 2..." in my opening sentence.

As always thanks to everyone for watching and supporting the channel. Don't forget to share the video if you thought it was helpful!

Krogans on insanity is canon. Makes you understand why the other species fear them and why they crushed the Rachni.

[makkusu]

I swear the enemy A.I. are literally aimbots on the insanity difficulty in ME2. Their weapon might be pointed in another direction but the bullets still follow you.

[duckyF]

Miranda *has both warp and overload*

Me: well it looks like I’m bringing you everywhere 😂

[angelganon]

Another tip. Electrocute the blue sun mechanic when you first go to rescue garrus to make the ship boss fight a little easier

Kasumi was my personal bodyguard throughout all of ME2. Her stealth attack can knockdown enemies leaving them on one shot health most of the time. She also has overload and flash-bangs to incapacitate rushers. VGood

[canadian__ninja]

Miranda is not a popular choice? What? I bring her literally everywhere. She's borderline overpowered with her abilities and main talent squad bonuses.

[spenser]

Yeah I’m one of those people you mentioned. I swap out Jacob as soon as I land on Omega and get Zaeed.

Infiltrator:
- Tactical Cloak
- Headshot
Repeat

No. 1 tip while leveling up on Insanity is understanding that a jack of all trades is a master of none. It is far better to spend early skill points on one skill and getting it to its 4th tier than it is to have three skills that are only rank 2 or three. Its important to note that it takes 10 skill points to fully upgrade a skill which early on is 5 levels. It is possible to have a fully upgraded skill before leaving Omega. This is especially useful if you opt for upgrading Jacob's incendary ammo which at rank 4 can become squad incendary ammo or if you invest in Miranda's Cerberus officer skill line which at rank 4 can give additional health or weapon damage.

It’s interesting to see everyone’s squad preferences. For me, it was Garrus (for overload) and Mordin (for incinerate). I would switch it up for different dialogues

[ubadman]

i would say jacob isnt very popular.
Miranda definitely has a fanbase.

And here's my tips for ME3:

Train yourself to survive 5 or 6 silver waves solo in multiplayer. And the singleplayer will be a cakewalk.

Here’s the actual insanity tip. You can shoot round corners by abusing the fact that bullets come out of the crosshairs and not the gun. So if the crosshairs are around the corner but Shepard isn’t you can shoot from safety.

I never knew about that enemy AI attack system on different difficulties. Thanks for sharing!

[mrbluemd]

Staggering with power use on a shielded enemy is an excellent tip.

[FreakazoidRobots]

I'd like to add a couple points. First, since the AI prioritize Shepard over his companions, it's often wise to order them a little ahead of you so that they'll draw _some_ of the fire and you're not pinned down forever. You actually do more damage with the same weapons than they do, so it's more important that you get clear shots than them. Also, the enemy AI always knows when you're zoomed and aiming at them and will almost immediately start bobbing around like a drunk kangaroo, making headshots very difficult. The Soldier's ability to slow down time and the Infiltrator's invisibility help _a lot_ to mitigate this fact. Even then, you may have to switch targets when your original choice magically realizes you're about to snipe them. If you're playing another class, it helps to put the reticle over the enemy's head _before_ you zoom. Then when you zoom, you may have a split second to fire before the AI reacts. You can stun lock many enemies with repeated headshots if you didn't kill them outright. Just know that likely two or three _other_ enemies will still be firing at you while you kill one, so watch your health.

Miranda and Kasumi made ME2's Insanity Mode a lot easier. Miranda busts shields and armor, while Kasumi kites enemies with her backstabbing.

Jack on the other hand is a wrecking ball on lower difficulties and steamrolls the Collectors.

ME1 is piss easy on Insanity, not even joking
