ATTENTION: This guide was originally written by capn233 on the old BioWare Social Network (BSN) forums. I am recreating it here without permission so it does not disappear when the old BSN forums shut down. Capn233, if you are mad I copied this here without permission, feel free to yell at me below. Just... be gentle. I don't want to cry.
I don't typically write lengthy diatribes, so the idea here was simply an Engineer with a combat power for the bonus. I selected AP Ammo. Inferno Grenades are also excellent, as is Fortification. The other goal was to try and do decent weapon damage and not be too much of a "caster." Not sure if I met the latter objective, maybe you can tell me. The other powers I chose to focus on are Overload, Incinerate and Drone.
This also can serve as a surrogate guide and walkthrough to the game if need be. There is commentary (good or bad thing depending on your perspective).
As I say in Prologue and allude to on Mars, I thought about doing a NG+ for this run, but instead did an ME2 Import that was set to NG+ (in case I wanted to go to X on guns), and with level set back to 1 (to show build progression). Anyone who was on the forums way back when will remember discussions about what may have been more challenging, but ever since DLC allowed you to hit 60 relatively easily starting from 1 this is how I like to play the game.
