Reason: Because I like to make minions to do my bidding.
MP: Shadowstrike (when it works, especially on a Phantom)
Reason: Instant teleport combined w/ heavy melee attack that steals shields/barrier; utilized by a female space ninja? Yes, please.

Tactical cloak is still my favorite power when it comes to killing things. People say score don't matter, but it still feels good to score high. Beating your score is always a goal to keep the gun fun.
What's not fun is wall spamming powers though.

Hey folks,
It's been a while since I last posed a question like this. So, here it is.
Which power do you consider your absolute favourite for pure fun?
It doesn't matter if it's a power you think is the best or most powerful. Simply the most fun to use because of its sheer entertainment value (presentation, sound, visual fx).
Cheers
You know what?
This thread doesn't do the amazing powers of Mass Effect series any justice.
They're all equally awesome.
Great ideas, fantastic execution, goregeous annimations and brillant synergy.
The combos work well too.
So many powers.
You're basically saying, what is my favourite chocolate.
Why choose between Belgium and Swiss chocolate?
All chocolate is awesome. Why rate one above the other? Why not have both?
All your powers are awesome. This is what separates Mass Effect series from your standard cover shooter.
You remove the powers and Mass Effect gameplays is a really dated cover shooter.
Powers is what sets Mass Effect apart from other games.
In a world where class systems are ditched in favour of characters with every ability on the planet, Mass Effect creates multitudes of classes with various abilities and combat roles that are distinct, specific but also versatile.
From the 6 classes in single player, to the various squadmates you get throughout Mass Effect 1, 2 and 3, to the grand variety of Multiplayer. classes and their powers give a certain Pokemon vibe.
I don't mind getting a new gun for the multiplayer.
But when it comes to classes. I've just "gotta catch em all".

Reave.
Damage protection plus the fact I'm slowly killing the opponent? Sweet.
Now, if only the skill was put on the Drell Vanguard and replaced pull.... ):
OP, reave -> charge, not much would be able to survive that.
Well, there's also the fact that once you charge, you're in the middle of the fray and BEs don't always clear a spawn, especially against the stronger enemies. Plus, you have to consider the cooldown that both skills have. Though, I was thinking more of the fact that Reave offers damage reduction, but oh well.

Most efficient and the greatest tactical tool, Hunter Mode
Most Fun: Sticky->TC->Cryo-> BOOM goes the brute
I also greatly enjoy reave, miss the old animation with them being in pain and having cramps and all, then come inferno grenades because setting stuff aflame is always fun, and lastly i love bloodlust, i regularly get killed because i am too much after a kill, this helps me survive getting that
ALso shadow build without es in its entirety a lot of fun, requires finesse and a quick thought. Also decapping phantoms was the best you gave me since cryosploding brutes and turning geth on another

SP: Armor piercing ammo. Garrus always did know the quickest way to the heart. <.< I've picked it forever until the proliferation of piercing mods in me3.
Dominate isn't bad. Sabotage got lots of use in me2.

*** Single Power ***
* Cryo Blast (my favorite)- my most used power, love running & gunning with it, stops unshielded/unarmored enemies in their tracks. I use it to slow multiple armored enemies too.
* Biotic Charge (my other favorite) - this never gets old for me especially after the recent boost. Great sound, great effect and great fun zooming across the map.
* Overload, especially Chain Overload is fun and really fun when combo detonated.
* Flamer is an awesome sight when walking/fighting amongst the flames created by 2 other vorcha squad members.
*** Combo Detonations *** (In order of pure fun, but not in how often used)
1) Fire Explosion - power, radius, sound, and visual effect is great.
2) Cryo Exposion fun for it's radius, visual effect, splash chill effect and sound. Sound is really fun since it's like breaking dishes.
3) Tech Burst is fun for its simplicity, radius and visual effect - especially true when set up with Chain Overload.
*** Also special cases ***
* [Cyro Blast + Krogan heavy melee] is tons of fun. 'Pfft" sound is great too when heavy melee killed. This is particular to Cryo Blast because of the speed at which multiple enemies can be frozen even at a distance.
* Using a power that makes an enemy go flying high up and/or off the map (eg. Smash or Biotic charge an enemy on a ledge).
*** VERY SPECIAL CASE ***
* Having enough force/damage in a power to *quickly* stagger a Banshee/Atlas/Brute (eg. Biotic charge, Homing Grenade, etc.) Especially great fun when a squad member is saved from certain death.

FlamerBioware, you guys really need to give yourself a pat on the back for this, great visual effects, and it is just simply amazing to see the enemies dancing around on fire while the Vorcha goes into berserk mode...
Shadow Strike The first time I used this and killed a Phantom with it, I swear I almost had a nerdgasm, it was so awesome. It is fun regardless of difficulty to Shadow Strike and kill a Phantom about to sync-kill a teammate. Or, Shadow Strike it just after that annoying teammate is cut down...

I love using lash for the laughs. There is just something satisfying about flinging a Phantom into orbit.
All time favorite power though would have to be biotic charge. CHARGE!

I thought your favourite power was the dancing turian.
That would be an awesome power.
No my favourite power that you can't use is Banshee screaming.
- It is the only power that can really make actual players panic.
- The first purely psychological power that has effective crowd control on real human beings.
- Proven to make beginners and seasoned players alike to make daft tactical choices.
- The noice is just so memorable.
- You know the banshee draws a lot of attention towards itself.
- Last but not least Erreeeeeeeeccccccchhhhhh!

Not a good idea revealing this to people who's favorite power is Sabotage. QUICK, WE MUST MAKE HASTE TO THE CONCENSUS!
