I'm wondering if I should put points into it, or just leave it empty and max out carnage.
If you max out carnage you should forgo charge and not barrier. Carnage's long ass recharge time doesn't mix with charge well.
I just got five ranks in battlemaster and used the leftover 6 points for carnage
it's handy for the times when it's not really safe or possible (like when enemies are spawning in inaccessible locations and you have to wait for them to jump down) to charge

I don't know. I don't like Carnage on a Vanguard. If I'm going to have deeply situational power on one I'd rather have a consumable like grenades or something that doesn't have such long recharge.
Me: So, who do you hate more. Ashley or Miranda?
Mom: Hmm. Miranda.
Me: Yeah?
Mom: Yeah. Ashley was a bitch but at least she fell in line when I told her to. Miranda seems to think she’s in charge which is bullshit.
It goes well with the Batarian's best ability: punching. Seriously this is a great combo
Also I tried the Scorpion on my Batarian Sentinel.... eh... I wasn't too impressed...
Try it out yourself though see what you think.
In terms of melee I like the Krogan better. There are just too many enemies the net does not actually tie down. And for every enemy you can't freeze, the falcon punch is just ridiculously slow. Krogan tears through everything about 10x faster.

Ya know, I think Speed Racer's Mom needs to play Fallout: New Vegas. She can get drunk, kill (almost) anybody, and otherwise be a total sociopath.
And you can definitely be all about the cash in F:NV.

So I was playing a bunch of golds last night with some friends. Wave 3 comes on Ghost, one guy drops out. The remaining 3 of us hold it down and manage to get full extraction 7 waves later. Felt reeeeeeally good at that point. A human and a salarian engineer, and a quarian infiltrator are a really good team guys.
I respecced my kroguard to max everything with no points in carnage at all
It is magnificent
this is deffo the way to do it
carnage is really cool, I agree, and I have it maxed on my krogan soldier (which I never play anymore because he's strictly worse than the alternative Krogan classes and strictly worse than the other soldier classes) but naw, no need
non-vanguard Krogans should carry the biggest fuck-off gun they possibly can and fuck cooldowns

I think Soldier in general is the new underpowered class after they fixed Sentinel. I don't have the Brogun Soldier though. Why is it worse than the others? I thought he was the best?
I think Soldier in general is the new underpowered class after they fixed Sentinel.
it, uh, always has been
even before tech armor's explosive power got tuned up the sentinels were pretty robust
human sentinels have access to warp and throw, which makes them easy biotic explosion killing machines, and the krogan and turian sentinels have always felt stronger than their soldier counterparts
the problem is, soldiers have weak or gun-based powers because they're supposed to be the gun guys, but the powers they have don't give them enough of a gun advantage over everyone else, and then they're left to rely on shit like concussive shot and proximity mine to distinguish themselves
batarian soldier's done a little to reverse this because ballistic blades is an excellent power, but as it stands there's not much you can do with a soldier that another class can't do better

So I went poking around Google to see if there was any interesting news or clarifications out there about the ending DLC. A couple generic articles and whatever.
Then I made the mistake of looking at the comments.
Holy fucking shit. I think I'll just stick to this thread for ME discussion from now on. I need a shower and probably an iq check.

Congratulations. You've turned a Vanguard into a Sentinel.
Not at all! But there should be some differentiation between the classes.
Other Vanguards don't get headbutts.
because with charge it basically plays like every other vanguard
It is magnificent

That's why my Kroguard doesn't have carnage.
I'm not saying I like it just that Carnage and Charge don't go well together.

but i put zero points in it on my vanguard
because it is pointless
my vanguard doesn't need a long range projectile power because he is a long range projectile power
this is deffo the way to do it
carnage is really cool, I agree, and I have it maxed on my krogan soldier (which I never play anymore because he's strictly worse than the alternative Krogan classes and strictly worse than the other soldier classes) but naw, no need

Turian marksman + revenant is actually awesome
Although Turians need a racial buff of some kind
there's a surfeit of cool melee powers, though
oh man
what if they got a jump
i guess it depends on what you mean by "embellishment"
I certainly don't make anything up
but it's also not like I'm posting everything she says because that would be boring
about 50% of the things she says are either just sort of, conversation, or they're bad attempts at being deliberately funny
but no she definitely asked what normandy meant and cut me off by saying "who cares we're in space now"

that would be an interesting experience because I haven't actually played through either of those games

Its writing is absolutely terrible.
Fallout New Vegas doesn't have the same "5 years after the bomb" feel, but the writing is miles better.
It also isn't quite so annoying with the "these characters are unkillable" thing.
what I am saying is you should start with the original Fallout and work your way forward

You can't give someone a pirate ship in one game, and then take it back in the next game. It's rude.
maybe not quite as bad as youtube comments but still depressing
I think she's hilarious and nothing I've read would make me call her anything near a "horrible person"
it's very consistently renegade and i dig that as it's very different from how i play shepard
i'm so used to doing every sidequest that i don't even consider playing a shepard who simply has no time for other people's crap
