So as I have mentioned before, this is my first EVER playthrough of Mass Effect 2. Anybody have any recommendations on class type? I'll be sitting here for the next 2 hours trying to decide for myself.
Well, I loved the Vanguard class in ME2. When I was looking through my game saves, clearly I favored that class. My first character was an Infiltrator, back in ME1, also fun.
If you're playing on any difficulty higher than Normal, don't bother playing an Adept. Most of their abilities require the enemy to be naked, and on higher difficulties, most have at least one form of defense up, like armor, shields, or barriers.
I'd also advise against playing as a Vanguard for your first run. Depending on who you are, they could end up as awesome but impractical, or difficult but awesome; either way, they're not a good class for a beginner.
LOL... I immediately went to Vanguard. There is something about that charge that just makes me hilariously reckless. And normally I prefer a ranged/stealth/sniper type of gameplay. But playing vanguard in ME2 gave me the best of both - I had biotics plus the ability to just slam into people like a nutjob on occasion.
So far, enjoying the game. Finished the first primary mission to retrieve the Primarch, am now a bit bogged down in the Citadel. I happened to check my journal and my jaw dropped at how much side crap somehow ended up in there. WTF.
So, trying to do Aria's tasks, even though I'd like to both high five her and slap her into space in the same breath...
Spoiler I am unable to convince the black market arms dealer to part with anything, so I seem to be at a dead end. I can order a hit on the general, which I don't really want to do. Any pointers on how I can resolve this - namely, I guess, getting the black market salarian vendor to part with the high end stuff he is hoarding?
