Playing on consoles you get to assign shortcuts for 3 abilities - was wondering what everyone liked to equip? Specifically was wondering what abilities for the Adept

[Rikketik]

The most important powers go under Y or sometimes RB. Occasionally useful powers (such as Overload -- because not every enemy has shields) go under LB. The Engineer is the only exception: it made more sense to bind both Drones under the shoulder buttons and the occasional Incinerate under Y. Here's how my setup for each class looks like, most of the time:

Vanguard:
Y - Charge
RB: Nova
LB: Pull

Adept:
Y - Singularity
RB - Throw
LB - Warp

Infiltrator:
Y - Tactical Cloak
RB - Incinerate
LB - Energy Drain

Soldier:
Y - Adrenaline Rush
RB - Frag Grenade
LB - Concussive Shot

Sentinel:
Y - Warp
RB - Throw
LB - Overload

Engineer:
Y - Incinerate
RB - Combat Drone
LB - Sentry Turret

That's my logic too, the left shoulder often gets the "useful, but not spammed" ability.

god do i wish there were more then 3 hotkeys on console.

Have not played Adept or Sentinel yet, but here is what I have ran with:

Soldier 1: A-Rush - Concussive Shot - Medi-Gel
Soldier 2: A-Rush - Concussive Shot - Bonus Power

Engineer: Sabotage - Cryo Blast - Incinerate (I switched Incinerate for Overload on Geth missions or when facing a lot of Cerberus Shield Pylons)

Vanguard: Charge - Pull - Shockwave (I switched Charge for Stasis when facing Phantoms)

Infiltrator: Cloak - Sabotage - Incinerate


For Adept, I suspect I would use something like: Warp - Throw - Pull (switch Pull of Stasis when facing Phantoms).
No idea about Sentinels. I would probably go with Rikketik and use Warp - Throw - Overload, although the appeal of Cryo Blast + Throw is tempting.

Since everything combos, you rarely need more than 3 powers. The Adept could maybe, MAYBE use four mapped powers, but I doubt it.  Pull/Singularity, Warp, and Throw seems good enough, and you can always switch out one of them for Stasis when the situation calls for it.

[I SOLD MY SOUL TO BIOWARE]

Soldier:
Y for Marksman
RB for Frag
LB for Adrenaline Rush

Yup.

Slight change for me. Vanguard LB Carnage (I run with inferno ammo, makes stuff go boom)

Otherwise, pretty much the same as mine.  Only change-up is on a reaper mission on my Infiltrator I'll sometimes swap out ED for Carnage  (since fewer enemies have sheilds)

isnt it wonderfull having 6 classes with evolvable abilities, and all kinds of options for weapons and what not, but then everyone just uses the same abiltiies adn the mattock anyways.

.....anyone realize their character creation is as predefined as shepard?

totally agree. i exclusively use warp, throw, and singularity as an adept. the adept is so redundant, even its exclusive abilities are redundant with its regular abilities. i have 30some points i dont put into abilities because id rather not see them showing and cluttering up my power wheel. ive always felt like bioware doesnt know how to make an adept "awesome." 

i could see myself using more then 3 abilties tho. definately for sentinels or engineers, and i know my vangaurd woulda liked charge, pull, nova, and stasis all hotkeyed.

was artistic integrity the reason why we only got 3 hotkeys for console?

Pretty much the same as above with the exception of my engineer which would be sabotage, incinerate, overload.

If you call the lack of free buttons artistic integrity, then yes.
