...apart from giving me tons of points which I didn´t really earn? 🙂
I have been trying alternate builds in multiplayer and singularity is definitely one of the more fun abilities, however it presents a few problems. My current build is max focused on combos and upon casting shockwave and detonating 4 flying raiders in a singularity they still fly and eventually fall without dying on silver, everything else seems to take very little damage but I am credited lots of assist points for scratching the paint on a Hydra.
The easiest thing to do would have been a few headshots, much faster, much more productive and better for the team as a whole, the quicker you kill your enemies the less people get in peril all other things equal.
Singularity and a few very other flashy effects also obstruct line of sight for anyone shooting behind me while I am having fun watching and shooting stuff flying around, add to this the problem of not actually seeing whats shooting at me beyond the singularity unless I decide to kemikaze beyond the expanding ring.
I have tried to watch a few videos on youtube and to me it seems I am using Singularity like most people, casting it towards groups while trying to combo with Shockwave but stuff dies far too slowly compared to conventional bullets and nobody gets their eyes strained from trying to focus beyond the veil. Maybe I am doing it all wrong though and would like some insight on what I might be doing wrong, thanks in advance for any kind replies.
the way i use singularity is to prime targets for combos and use a 2nd skill to set off the combo. once that is done there is no need to have singularity around anymore so i have the skill set to blow up and cause damage to anyone near it. this will remove it allow the power to recharge faster and if any NPCs are still primed the explosion will set off a 2nd combo. every little bit of damage is helpful when playing MP. that damage means less bullets too shoot which means more ammo for me in later rounds.

Thanks a bunch, I didn´t think of releasing the Singularity before time ... I never do. So you cast singularity? ... Shockwave to detonate and prime ... and release Singularity?

yep. a lot of people forget they can detonate singularity early. as well as cause the explosion and do extra damage if you have rank 6 unlocked for that skill. it fixes all your issues you get the damage and it wont block your line of sight. plus any NPC caught in the power attacks are knocked down and stunned for a short time. allowing shields to recover and powers to cool down.
