Vanguard with Liara and Javik is pretty powerful

1. Stasis is awesome, stop a foe in its tracks and then either shoot them in the head or detonate with Charge.
2. Javik can be upgraded for 20% faster shield recharge that with the boost from Fitness can give you 35% faster shield regen. Liara can increase recharge speed for entire squad by 10%.
3. So many options for biotic combos. Singularity then Slam. Slam and then Warp. Pull then Warp. Dark Channel then Charge. Dark Channel then Slam.
4. Great crowd control with Squad Cryo, Singularity, Pull, Lift Grenade, and Slam.
5. Equip Javik with either Particle Rifle or Chakram both work nice with Cryo Ammo. Equip Liara with either Tempest or Scorpoin. Adding some extra area of effect to the build or a nice way to freeze.
6. Give Shepard Mattock-Tempest-Scmitar or 2 of the 3. Super fast recharge, combos, crowd control. Only real weakness is maybe shields but Stasis can help with that.

The only down side I see to your strategy is trying to quickly strip barriers off of Banshees. Overload seems to do the job much faster than Warp. Is that the scenario where you recommend EDI? When I roll a Vanguard, I will have to try your strategy.

Ok, so I've been wondering about Dark Channel. What powers does it combo with? I think I remember trying it with a couple of different biotic powers and it didn't combo.

I know Dark Channel will combo with Charge. I think it can be detonated but will not detonate if that makes sense. So, I don't think Singularity and then Dark Channel with detonate.
Yes, the main problem is you don't have Overload but sub EDI at that time. Decoy is awesome as well, as is Incinerate which is why I think Kronner suggests that team. But, I really like that Javik has Dark Channel, and most importantly he can give you 20% shield recharge delay with that and Charge you can never let a foe get at your health. Lift Grenade and Slam can be used in combos and he benefits from Liaras 10% recharge perk. He can also use Chakram Launcher or Particle Rifle to good effect with Cryo Ammo where EDI is stuck with a Pistol or Sub Machine Gun. I am going to take Decoy as my bonus power although I wish I could take Overload.
Is there any certain mission where Overload is a must?

im just starting this combo myself. im gonna do energy drain as bonus power because vanguard is weak against shields.
Thats a really good idea but I like Carnage and Decoy alot. Will probably try them all out.

But Liara's Singularity has lower cooldown than your Charge anyway. Garrus' Overload instantly removes shield, allowing you to set up biotic combo immediately. Garrus also deals more damage with his Sniper/AR than Javik. But then again, squad does not really matter that much in ME3.

Suggestions for Asari Vanguard build and weapons? ( MP )
Stasis Bubble and Charge with full shield refill. You can't exploit Nova, but you can create your own biotic explosion.

Stassis for Dmg or longer time,recharge or the other, rank buble or bonus dmg ? And the other 2 passive skills right ( Fitness, justicar ) fitness for shield/hp and justicar for weapon dmg or power dmg?

It's pretty neat. Everytime the power goes from a dead guy to a new target, you can detonate it again. This means that with two Dark Channels in the battlefield, there are biotic explosions everywhere.

Must have just ignored my last post in here.
Dark Channel does NOT combo under any conditions. It doesnt set up an explosion. It does not trigger an explosion. It does NOT combo with any biotic powers whatsoever.

It definitely does dude. I just rolled with Javik on a mission and I was able to create biotic explosions with him. Dark Channel can't trigger the explosion but it definitely works as a setup.

You're a vanguard. What on earth do you want shield recharge for?
