    Hello, /v/. With Mass Effect 3's recent release, I decided to actually give the first game a try. Any suggestion on builds and whatnot?

    Vanguard with Singularity

    All the biotic goodness of an adept but you also get pistol and shotgun skill.

    Vanguard is small time compared to Soldier/Infiltrator.

    Immunity means you can laugh off rocket shots to the face.

    Don't let the AI auto level up shepherd or the crew. It always uses a weak as shit balanced build which leaves you more vulnerable than you should be by the end of the game.

    Soldier. Only soldier and Adept are truly viable (Read: Fun) in the first game. Vanguard isn't quite there yet. Sentinel/Engineer is kinda bland, too. Infiltrator is straight-up shit in it.

    Also, turn the difficulty up from "Normal". Normal in Mass Effect games are piss easy. Don't do insanity in ME1, though. It isn't fun.

    This guy gets it.

    The only purpose of Biotics is killing other Immunity users. And that is Lift+Push or Warp. CC of singularity is pretty irrelevant when you don't give a shit if they are hitting you.

    At a high level, Sentinels with Singularity are probably the most active and fun. Insanity becomes a joke when you can single handedly shut down an entire area. ME1 doesn't have bullshit global cooldowns so a Sentinel can just keep spamming powers, and there's no barriers/armor/shields stopping Biotics from going through. The pistol skill you get from being a Sentinel is more than enough anyway because of how powerful your biotics and tech are.

    It's really something I miss in the newer games despite those having better gunplay.

    At first I was going to play Sentinel because I like support classes...

    Then I realized there was nothing to support, so I beat the game as an Infiltrator.

    Now on my run through 2 as Infiltrator.

    Having no GCD and like only 8 seconds of cooldown for powers that can shutdown an area for 15 secons plus an always on barrier is great.

    Of course if you just want easy mode play a soldier with maxed Immunity.

    Soldier if you like gunplay
    Vanguard if you're not too bothered

    Squad members can supplement what you lack in terms of biotics, but they can't shoot your guns for you

    Fucking this. Engineers for the fucking win.

    It's playing like a soldier, but then with a fucking incineration blast, and overload.
    Effective against shields and armor. Plus you have the advantage of the assault rifle.

    The persuasion system of all the MEs are dumb. All they do (especially later on) is give the player incentive to play a predefined Shepard.

    About the only thing about playing a maxed Sentinel are drones which are unaffected by biotics. You can shut them down with sabotage but there's a few areas with a shit ton of them (particularly the VI mission on the moon) and it can be pretty annoying unless you have another squad member that can sabotage and overload to make it go faster.

    It's hilarious how Colossi can't do shit between lift and sabotage. Or just perma lifting the final boss in tandem another biotic.

    Insanity is piss easy as a Sentinel. I imagine it would be easy for a soldier to cause of fucking Immunity+Adrenaline Rush. Every other class would be overwhelmed. Well, maybe not Adept but it doesn't have the versatility of Sentinel.

    >Squad members can supplement what you lack in terms of biotics, but they can't shoot your guns for you
    True but they're fucking terrible at using skills too, they don't spam like a player does and unlike ME2 and ME3, you can actually play as a caster in ME1. They're much better at being combat drones than providing actual support. Except for Liara, for some reason she knows exactly when to time her biotics in my games while Kaidan is derping.
