    i wanted to like miranda but i didn't like her personality and my attempts to befriend her were for naught.

    i ended up liking Jack way more.

    Glad to see you got past your initial mistakes.

    Jack's a psychopath in 2, and still has issues in 3, but she's a good character. Better, she's got a solid character arc.

    Miranda's just awful.

    Jack's not so bad once you get into her romance a bit in 2. She definitely starts out crazy psycho though

    And she's swell in 3.

    But she's still no Tali.

    she is good for nearly all situations

    On a related note I don't know what the fuck to do with Drell Vanguard

    It's like trying to play regular vanguard standing on my head

    Drell Vanguard is basically an assassin/backstab rogue type of character.

    You create an opening with grenades or lift, and then charge in for a biotic explosion, maybe melee a bit, gun some guys down, then run like hell.

    They are very much the cut and run biotic.

    Miranda is ridiculously good in gameplay terms.

    Warp, overload, and a passive that buffs the whole party's health? Yes please.

    Basically, only human and krogan biotics can really be played very aggressively.

    Asari and Drell can't get away with that.

    yeah, but from watching you argue about stuff you seem to hold on to first impressions a lot stronger then most people.

    pfffffffffft i play aggressive on my asari adept all the time!

    I just sometimes die a lot.

    It's worth it for the times I don't though.

    Drell Vanguard is a goddamn wrecking machine. Tear down shields and then it is pull/charge time, or pull/grenade, or grenade/charge. Biotic explosions like WHOA.

    I've since moved on to Krogan Vanguard though. That's way too much fun.

    My favourite is still Geth Infiltrator though. I just wish I could get some levels into my Black Widow.

    The thing about playing aggressively as a squishy class is you really need to have a good feel for the rhythm of your powers and shots to keep stuff locked down. If you don't have any way to stagger stuff as you move around you'll get ripped to pieces.

    Sometimes I can nail it and wade into a pack of hunters and pyros on gold and come out ahead.

    Sometimes a single cannibal incaps me.

    "An End Once and For All" gets me almost choking up.
    This game has become a weirdly personal experience for me, it seems.
    I need to play some Gears of War or something that I won't get so attached to.

    cluster grenades can detonate explosions, but I don't think they can set them up

    lift grenades can set them up though

    I think she will start looking for ways to kill Joker


    I am thinking I should probably let her know that her only choices are jacob, thane and garrus
