Can anyone share some advice on an effective build/weapon loadout for Ashley? I am not sure where to go with her at the moment.  In particular, I am not sure if her Marksman is worth investing in.Thanks for any assistance!

My Ashley uses Grenades coupled with Concussive Shot spec to take on ammo power. As for weapons, I gave her the GPR.

Revenant or Particle Rifle for the AR slot. Black Widow for the Sniper.

Her Marksman ability with the Revenant makes for some impressive firepower.

Broom.

Let her clean the Normandy.

/kinda joking

Revenant works well.

Rev + Black widow for a fire team support role or Raptor + Saber for assualt team role these weapon setups really make use of her markman ability allowing for some superior fire power on her end.

I give her the Revenant and Viper. I hardly have her sniping after Mars, and I don't like her carrying a heavier weapon load than Shepard. It is emasculating.

Revenant with Disruptor ammo under Marksman is pretty neat. I wouldn't say she is the best option for any mission, but she is semi-useful.

Don't have her, but since she can use Marksman, Revenant or Particle Rifle.

I'm inclined to give her a Particle Rifle because regardless of how accurate it can be, the squad DPS with Particle Rifles is more powerful.

I'm inclined to make a default Shepard to unlock her just for her bonus powers.

ya this. She was always pretty much useless in my playthrough. Only member of the squad to not get an brain when they upgraded the AI. She always just ran out and got herself killed.

I find Ashley to be devastatingly effective with the Particle Rifle. But then that can be said for most squadmates. She's also quite good with the Black Widow.

Revenant and Black Widow

Extremely effective.

[awesomeduo]

Particle rifle. as for the build, follow this guy's advice when upgrading ashley, and she will MURDER everything.

For Ashley and Garrus, I generally ignore the fact they have sniper rifles. They just don't seem to do anything with them, even the Black Widow. I just give them the Particle Rifle, Revenant, or Falcon and let them go to town.

@Bantz: Really? For me, Ashley seemed like the most survivable squadmate, and the best (or tied w/ Garrus) damage dealer on the squad. Liara was the one that was always going and getting herself killed.

I brought Ashley and Liara w/ me on the Monastary mission, and at the part with two banshees, I engaged one and left the other to my squad. Liara went down almost immediately, but by the time I killed the one banshee, Ashley was still alive and brought the other one down to 1/3 health.

This, she saved my arse many a time with the widow

this has been a very informative thread, I particularly found the thread about optimal squadmate weapons to be very useful. Thank to everyone.

Did anything change since ME2?

People kept suggesting burst weapons so the squad mates would get their shots off then hide behind cover lowering their exposure to enemy fire.

How come now in ME3 I see so many Revenant recommendations for the squad mate weapons?

Squad are now tougher and cover is less effective in ME3. Revenant and GPR are great for triggering ammo power imo.

[Charlie2417]

This is great. Think I might try the Disruptor Widow Garrus just for the one shot kills + a suppressive fire tank like Vega

Squadmates are generally better at staying alive (no more dying to one random mook), and they also got better with full auto weapons. In ME2, they would only fire off a few rounds no matter what weapon they had, so it was better to give them slower, more powerful weapons. In ME3, they will empty the entire clip into an enemy if the opportunity presents itself, making full auto weapons more appealing.

Hell, with the right squad builds, you can make the game self-playing even on insanity. Ashley + Garrus + Particle Rifle/Revenant + Squad Explosive Incendiary Ammo = grab something to drink and watch everything die.

Does the +large clip size mod affect team mates?

Hah! We need a SP spectator mode.

[Charlie2417]

Just make an infiltrator and act as a field medic.

[JudgmentKnight]

Any one know if the marksman's firing rate bonus applies at all to the particle rifle,especially on Ashley? Its already feeling redundant on the accuracy side.

EDIT: Also has anyone been able to make something viable out of the Argus, Ash or otherwise?
