I'm also curious if this build works better WITHOUT heavy weapons, and instead speccing Offensive Mastery 5 for Weight Capacity and using light weapons (say, Mattock X and Disciple X) for the 200% cooldown bonus. Using two armor pieces for the -20% Shield Regen, and the rest Rosenkov for -30% cooldown, I think would give this build a lot more versatility, without sacrificing the tanking aspect.

Yes, it works fine and it is probably more efficient too. But I really wanted a build that is focused on weapons. Other classes/builds I've tried were power spammers.

Kronner, for Level 6 of Offensive Mastery, do you think the Force & Damage evolution (25% both) or the Bonus Power evolution (15% chance of triggering no cool-down) is better?

Running with Power/Force boost, but I dunno how well the Biotic Combo evolution works (15% is pretty low...) 200% cd helps a LOT tho... you can now effectively purge Defense Matrix for the shield boost. Saved my life a couple times.

I never take the perks that give you a certain chance of not triggering the cooldown, it's just not reliable.

Yeah, it is very, very effective. But you miss out on weapons. Good thing is that you can change your playstyle (power-heavy/weapon-heavy/hybrid) for every mission or even during a mission (when you find the weapon bench).

Figured.

Btw, a Kaiden/Javik squad combo works pretty well too, using Javik's Pull (shorter cd) instead of Dark Channel, and Kaiden's Reave.

It doesn't bomb as fast as the Liara/Javik combo, but you can spec Kaiden's passive for an additional -15% Squad Shield Recharge. That gives you -85% on Shield Recharge (20% Armor, 15% Fitness, 15% Defense Matrix, 20% Javik, 15% Kaiden)! Plus, Kaiden's Overload (specced to Damage/Recharge/Shield Damage) and your Overload (same) together rape shields and barriers way faster than biotic explosions. Helps out with Atlases and Banshees.

I was looking for a sentinel build and I've found this one, and I will using this on my 1st playthru with my ME1-->ME2-->ME3 (now) save.

This is my first time playing as this class. I didn't know where to start as far as leveling up my Shepard. Thanks!

Just wanted to add a link to a topic by swk3000 explaining that you can have both Tech Armor and Fortification/Barrier/Defense Matrix and still use powers with reasonable cooldowns, provided you drop the "walking armory" part of Kronner's build.

^It'd be like, 160% or something if you carry an otherwise 200% loadout, right?

Kronner a few pages back you said you were going to see how things went with James as your 3rd squadmate. How did that turn out for you?

200% loadout gives 60%, 90%, or 120% bonus, depending on the number of Power Recharge evolutions you take. However, you can get another 80% from Armor, Intel, and Squadmates, so your final numbers end up at 140%, 170%, or 200% (again, depending on how many Power Recharge evolutions you take).

Also, I feel it's worth mentioning that the first post by Kronner on page 5 makes it clear that he built the character specifically to use only weapons. Everyone else on the forums simply failed to examine exactly why his cooldowns were so bad. Kronner's build is working exactly as intended. It's still a good idea to let people know, but don't start jumping Kronner for misleading anyone.

I'm using the Blood Pack Punisher and Paladin both at level 5. I'm wondering if I should use a shotgun or even an assualt rifle. To me the Blood Pack SMG is like an assualt rifle. Thoughts?
