What's your favorite weapon to use on the Vanguard?  Even though it kills my cooldown a little, I like to use the Graal Spike Thrower.  Good upclose damage and it works better with ranged shots then any other shot gun I've come across.  If I feel like just spamming charge + nova I'll switch to my carnifax.

Any pistol.

This goes for any class.

[Trickshavv]

It WAS a Pally.

Now it's a carni. The increased weight nerf to the Pally just knocked it off my "usable weapon" list. Now it has almost the same weight as a Valiant. Hmmm... so I can equip a Pally or a valiant?

Gee... let me think...

The only thing I take with me on my human Vanguard is a Phalanx. With the right build it keeps my cooldown bonus on 200%.

GPS. Charge shot, biotic charge, regular shot.

carnifex

[Kamlol]

Charge nova nova.

[jaydubs67]

High level carnifex with damage and AP mods. 200% cooldown. Effective at range when charging would be stupid. Good against enemies you don't want to charge (guardians, banshees). It's almost perfect really. I also take a shuriken X since I can take that for free, even without the lightweight mod.


I'll probably swap the shuriken out once I can take the carnifex without rank 6 alliance weight reduction (I presume at level 10?). Then switch that to either 3 in shockwave or the rank 6 10% weapon damage bonus.

disciple/katana.

Discipline.

200 regen rate is a must, and disciple does fairly well in close quarter.

With an accuracy mod, it also becomes dangerous at long ranges when charging the enemy otherwise would've been suicide.

I assume this is just to shoot yourself with? I mean, Vanguard is essentially the suicide class...

Not if the Vanguard is played competently. If the Vanguard is good, the Vanguard is the bullet.

If you are lucky.

Even a skilled Vanguard doing everything 100% right can die when lag/glitches/bugs comes into play.

Agreed. i don't even like the vamguard to much but they can really bring the pain where in counts. Back on topic: what about the claymore? is it nerfed/ too heavy? Or just so rare that no ones got one lol?

Most of those problems can be prevented if the Vanguard hosts. Not a perfect solution (this problems shouldn't exist in the first place), but it works.

Phalanx right now because I've had no luck with lvling my Carnifex, but will be a Carnifex.

The Mattock is actually pretty decent as well, 190% recharge with X.

[SinerAthin]

That should solve most of the problems, but you are still screwed once you end up flying mid-air for the rest of the game.

It happens on my Vanguard alot that I spend the rest of the game floating around in the air.

[Klokos]

Katana X/eviscerator X or the disciple for my human vanguard.

I have never had that glitch happen when I'm hosting.  In fact, I've never had any vanguard glitch happen while I'm hosting.  No charge delay, no falling off the map, no getting killed by lag.

Had been using an Eagle, the only Pistol I have unlocked aside from the Predator and Phalanx, along with a Disciple III for close combat. But this morning I decided to use my Avenger X for some random reason, and I think now I'm going to stick with that. 'course I'm talking about an Asari Vanguard. So I have the Avenger scoped with an AP mod and I generally only charge when I need shields or to change locations quickly. But it seemed to do well both chewing down mobs from cover (does a lot better with headshots than the Eagle) and tearing them down when something gets close.

[Jackhaemmerchen]

I admit i have not played vanguards much at all but does the weapon selection not depend a lot on your race? Just curious if 200% cdr is as crucial on drell/asari as it is on human vanguards.

[Makora7]

I'm using Carnifex X + Disciple X together with my Asari Vanguard. With both wep weight reduction skills I'm still getting 190% recharge speed.
