The inability to fire proxy mines while in marksman and the inability to dodge + the slow momvement speed really kills this class.

I've been playing around with it the last few days, it really is a terrible class, even with weapons like the hurricane and harrier with level 3 equipment you deal mediocre damage(and my aim is on point), compared to for example a claymore or GPS wielding human soldier it's awful. The best (and only really good) setup imo is the talon, but that's just good because the talon is great and marksman makes it even better.

Marksman is an OK ability, allthough much worse than AR rush in my opinion. Free shield gate + shield boost and 70% damage >>> 50% firing rate and accuracy boost.

Marksman is not the problem however, the problem is that you can't use marksman or proy well together because of the shared cooldown. Proy mine has great synergy with the concept of the turian soldier with the debuff and all, but the shared cooldown with marksman is bad and really kills this synergy. Marksman should have had an option to fire a power while in it, like ar rush.

On top of this he has the worst mobility in the game, the same as krogans but his shields aren't very high.

Turian soldier needs some serious tweaking.

Turain, Krogan, Batarian.
All "heavy" classes. Limited mobility.

The end.
Actually no it's not.
I'll add that AR and MM are two totally different powers that do totally different things. Why are you comparing them?

I agree, they should add a roll to the Turian and the Batarian.

I must agree, my favorite class ruined because it has 3 active powers while being a slow pos....

Because they are both combat powers you toggle on and off, that boost your weapon damage output. Pretty obvious why I'm comparing them.

And yes, it is. Provided you know how to play the other classes turian soldier is one of the classes with the least going for it, and many cons on top of his lack of pros.

This fatty does not do Garrus justice. Or Gavorn.....

Turian soldier is awesome, and I use him all the time. I go with Hurricane, but rarely use Marksman.

I love playing my Turian Soldier. It's one of the few classes I really "click" with when playing.

I also don't use mines and run around with a shotgun but do fairly well for myself. So. Hm.

The batarians I can atest to being viable on gold, though a roll would so help. The turian solider on the other hand ends up being one that is avoided on gold all together because of lack of mobility/powers. If you could roll with a turian solider or even slide then I could see some usabilty on gold. Plus turians don't cover that well either.

You're crazy, the Turian soldier is great. Nobody can kill stuff as fast as him.

Troll much?

If your damage is mediocre with the Harrier and level 3 equipment, then your aim is NOT spot on. Sorry.

50% fire rate boost obviously makes you kill faster than a 70% flat damage boost. Or 90% from cloak.

Or grenades. Or biotic combos. Or tech bursts, or overload + headshots with something like a talon/paladin.

Yeah, you get the  idea.

I top lobbies and consistently score over 100k when I play the character, that does not mean much as I could do much better with many other classes,  and cut 5 minutes off the completition time in the process.  Still a POS in good hands, compared to most other classes.

Lol, if you play with him you'll change your mind very quickly.    I seriously doubt your could outscore him with any class.  I'd bet money on it.

@actually thrane he is right, if i see what i do with a revenant on the ts, i want even more a harrier to see what i do with that

If your damage output with a harrier, independent of class, is mediocre, i got bad news, and very bad on the turian

The Turian Soldier is awesome! The only problem I have with him is not having a dodge. This is also a precision class, those who have better aim will make the Turian shine!

I have to admit the Turian Soldier is the one class I haven't really done well with in Silver....But I'm still trying.

You are obviously doing something wrong because the Turian Soldier is amazing.  I regularly outscore the "overpowered" infiltrators and all I'm using is a Shuriken X or Hornet X.  If I use the Hurricane, the TS just melts stuff instantly.

Marksman - go accuracy, headshot damage, accuracy & fire rate
Turian Vet - stability/weapon damage, headshot, stability/weapon damage

Now, if you can aim at all you should be hitting a very high rate of headshots which with 45% headshot damage bonus, you should be obliterating everything in your path.  Seriously, if I can regularly score 140k-155k on Gold with just a Hornet X, you should be able to at least duplicate (if not obliterate) that with a Harrier.

One 36 round magazine from a Harrier IV with rail amp 3, AR AMP 5 gear, and level 2 warp ammo (was out of level 3 ammo) doesnt even kill a gold brute, leaves it with like 3 bars of armor.

Now compare this to a claymore or GPS soldier..... Harrier/talon/saber/hurrican + marksman is great against stuff that takes headshot damage.

Against the units that are actually hard to kill, not so much. It mows down normal units sure, but what class doesn't?

I don't know what you are talking about, he is actually one of the best classes, Hurricane with Extended mag and barrel gives you one of the highest DPS in the game

Been experimenting with the Turian Soldier. Concussive shot maxed out, N7 Valiant and Hurricane, pretty good. You've got problems if you're caught in a crossfire because of lack of mobility but if you think ahead and move around the map it's fine.

The Turian Soldier seems to fill the role of a mobile turret class. But to do so effectively, he could use some better damage/RoF boosts, and lower recoil.

Try equipping that Talon X with a scope.

Turian Soldier + Markman + Scoped Talon = Pinpoint accuracy over any distance.

It's basically the best sniper rifle in the game. Damage comparable to the Valient, faster rate of fire thanks to Marksman, 4 shots in a clip, fast reload (don't know if it's faster though) and most importantly of all, it bypasses the shield gate.

Apart from the Kishock*, it's the only weapon that can one shot kill shielded enemies over any distance.

*I can't test it, but I suppose that in thoery the Graal could. It's just unlikely due to the projectile delay.
