Very interesting. Do you have to have Cryo Beam equipped for this to work, or is it enough to just have the points in Snap Freeze?

It seems that you do not need to have Cryo Beam equipped for this to work 

While I love my Shockwave/Incinerate/Energy Drain Sentinel I do miss the single target damage of the Piranha/Overcharge/Tac cloak.

Then again the Piranha build does have some anti synergy with the healing aspects and Cloak.

Once this new patch drops I will be trying out a Energy Drain/Incinerate/Overcharge build.

Hoping it will have the core of the Combo spam while still letting me burn down those Fiends and Behemoths is reasonable times.

So it turns out the hybrid build of Energy Drain/Incinerate/Overcharge worked best for me.

Ran Helios Defender for armour (gun and power damage).

5 Combat recharges in melee, Bio/Seeker/2 x recharge in Piranha. Tech recharge in all the armour. I did it because diminishing returns means anything past 100% bonus recharge loses a lot of its benefit. 50% recharge in chest. Weapon augments could be a substitute for gun damage, something to test.

As I suspected the loss of weapon damage from no Biotics (30%) and Combat Cloak (poor uptime) didn't have a huge amount of effect on my sustained DPS. Overcharge, tech rounds and a Piranha wasted Fiends, Destroyers and Ascended in a couple of clips anyway.

So I have found my perfect build right before the patch comes and rewrites everything and I have to start from scratch.

Does anyone know if 'Biotic Effect Duration' affect the defensive and offensive buffs of Charge and Biotic Warrior

I need a good idea for an infiltrator build.

I already have
- an explorer build with turbocharge, cloak and nova
- an adept build with annihilation field, charge and shockwave
- a sentinel build with energy drain, shockwave and incinerate.

I kind of want to use an infiltrator build for sniping, but other than tact. cloak, I can't think what else to put on it. The rules are: only combat and tech skills (since an infiltrator is combat/tech). I'm kind of leaning towards concussive shot and overload. This way I get the cycle:
1) tac cloak
2) killshot with isharay vintage clip which overloads and resets tactical cloak due to adrenaline fusion mod.
3) quickfire an overload and concussive shot to take out the shields of my next victim and knock him down for an easy
4) tac cloak and killshot with the isharay.

But maybe there are better skill combinations for a sniper? Any ideas?
