Im not sure why but I've never touched biotics in Mass Effect. Normally I stick with the most soldier-like class. Mostly because I hated getting gated out of weapons or such. Im glad they removed the strict class system this time though so I can create a soldier-engineer mixed class like the infiltrator but more designed around head on combat.

I will not stray from Vanguard, it will be the only profile I play. My points will go to charge, nova, shotgun, annihilation, and any passive skill that'll make up close fighting even easier.

Depends on the playthrough as I'll be playing characters with all the powers and skills eventually I think.
But my first character will be a biotic infiltrator. Mostly using the Adept skills/powers. using the enemy and environment around me as projectiles just sounds like too much fun to turn down. I love the biotics in the original trilogy. But then I enjoy using all the various powers in ME. I'm going to combine using Biotics with the tactical cloak and snipe as an infiltrator so at times they won't see me coming and by the time they know I'm there they've got a Biotic shockwave charging in at them or something to send them flying.

I'm gonna focus enough on tech to level cloak, then I'm gonna work enough on soldiery stuff to level either sniper rifles or melee weapons and the rest will go into biotics.

Charge, Nova and Annihilation looks too delicious to pass up. I'm waiting to see what the Vanguard profile bonuses are before choosing between it or Adept Melee recharges shield is the main profile bonus for Vanguard apparently.

As a vanguard in all 3 games I'll stay that way but I think a tech primer power like cryogenic beam along with charge and backlash to help if I stay around to long I'm hoping to make the n7 pirana plasma or laser I wasn't a fan of the classless system originally but now I think it will just be amazing fun

My favorite class from the OT was Infiltrator, so I'm going to come up with an Infiltrator build that I will use whenever possible. I will for sure play around with some of the new powers and add those in where they fit with my theme, but from the original trilogy powers, I think I will mainly go Cloak, Energy Drain, and then something like Cryo Blast so I can freeze enemies for easy head-shots and hopefully slow down any larger Fiends so I can keep a distance. I would love to play around with a biotic infiltrator, but floating enemies are harder to head-shot, so those will probably have to be relegated to one of my other favorites. Stasis would also be very helpful, if something like that is available. But I NEED. MY. CLOAK!

My shepard was a Vanguard so of course i will also play as one with Scott and later with Sara. This. Vanguard is the class I know best, so until I get used to things, I'll just stick with this. And then maybe go for a more hybrid one.

Biotics look like way too much fun this time around. Between Charge, Backlash, Nova, Pull/Throw and biotic flight, I'll have a hard time fitting other skills in there.

Depends if Sabotage/AI Hacking and Shadow Strike exist in singleplayer.
If not then I'm going mostly biotic, with a few tech powers like Cloak, Cryo Beam and perhaps something else.

I will most likely go Vanguard for my first play through. I want to see if I can make a melee build. It was fun in ME3 multiplayer with krogan Vanguards and I want to see how it will play out with even more mobility. If I don't like that build I'm going full adept. My NG+ will be infiltrator all the way.

I will level up:
From Biotics: Barrier, Backlash. From Tech: Cloak, Team support. From Combat: Combat tools, Combat fitness, Weapon skills ( depends on which weapons I like ), Omni grenade OR Trip mine OR Turbo charge ( which ever will be more effective in general ).
I will probably not switch profiles and just play with 3 active powers and use other points to level up all the passives faster. Will go with the soldier profile, and play a shooter.

The main profile Ill be using is an explorer. I never knew I needed blink until the moment I saw it. overload, nova and charge, together with a revenant assault rifle.
other profiles will be specialised: an armor destroyer infiltrator and a soldier with consumable skills for quick unloading of pain. can't think of a use for a 4th profile yet.

I'll most likely focus on Tech with some biotics. Throw in some combat passives for the weapons I use most, etc. I've always liked Pull over Singularity, for example, and Overload was one of my favorite skills in ME3. I'm thinking a mix of Infiltrator and Sentinel. We'll see how it goes once we get into the game proper, but rough theory crafting leads me to think this will be quite fun

My favourite classes in the Shepard trilogy from favourite to least favourite were Soldier, Vanguard, and Sentinel, but I have no idea where to start with Andromeda. The new tech skills look amazing so I think I'll start there this time. At the same time though, the revamped biotic abilities look really interesting.

Biotics all the way. I was an Adept all through the Trilogy and it always upset me when in ME2 and ME3 I didn't have access to ALL the Biotic abilities so the new classless system works for me in that respect. I do wish that Warp and Stasis had been included however. We finally get to be the ultimate Biotic again after Biotic abilities were nerfed in ME2 and ME3 but some of the powerful classics are gone. I hope this is amended in DLC as Biotics are more than making things float. Warp and Stasis added to and showcased the diversity of affects and applications with Biotics and Mass Effect Fields.

In which tree will you put more points? Going to try a Vanguard build.
My Male Ryder's going Combat + Biotics (with Tech thrown in for added hurt).
Combat Side: - Assault Rifles. (passive) - Shotguns. (passive) - Pistols. (passive) - Combat Fitness. - Concussive Shot. [or Flak Cannon.] - Omni Grenade - Turbocharge.
- Trip Mine. - Barricade.
Biotics Side: - Pull/Throw. - Backlash. - Charge. - Nova. - Lance. - Barrier. (passive) - Offensive Biotics. (passive)
Tech Side: - Invasion. - Cryobeam. - Flamethrower - Assault Turret. - Tactical Clock. - Team Support. (passive) - Offensive Tech. (passive) - Auxiliary Systems. (passive)

To me, it just doesn't feel...right to not use guns in the Mass Effect Universe. Pure biotic is definitely not the way I plan to go. However, I'm definitely liking the thought of going Vanguard-y - that was my class in Mass Effect 2 and 3. Assault firearms supplemented by the Biotic Charge and other Biotic supplemental abilities.

This thread needs a poll!
I typically love biotics, but the tech looks like a lot of fun, too. I'm torn between an aggressive Adept or an Infiltrator type build, in the early game.
