Melee Kroguard, skip nova level fortify?

Fortify is much better for the increased survivability as well as the melee damage. Plus, you have the AoE stun on 6B which you can use to create Tech Explosions which stun as well. Much more useful than Nova imo.

This is probably what I'll be doing at some point. Skipping nova isn't a mistake because it's an absolutely terrible power unfortunately, it does practically no damage, has a huge cooldown and the biotic combos it produces are worse than pathetic. It has the be the worst power in the game hands down. R.I.P. nova from me3mp. Waste of points to spec into nova.

Hmm, glad I'm not alone in thinking this, now my only other thought is 6a vs 6b, I feel like being able to charge 75% more often would lend itself to better survivability than what 6b offers.

As far as what to do with rage, I took the melee, since charge is going to be keeping your shields up, it didn't seem as useful to me.

I find myself using nova less and less. Jump-/melee does comparable damage AND regenerates some shield AND there seems to be some extra frames in the end of nova animation where enemies can get a free hit in... Its basically seems risky, with no immediate rewards.
-I will typically do it on hack/upload/extract if there are 3+ enemies crowding the area.
-I also do it before reviving sometimes. (You can start the revive during the animation, if im not entirely mistaken.)
So typically 1-3 times in a match.

Edit oops forgot to mention Im Human VG.
