Well, you were talking about toughness =P
She can make a few things "OP", but the trio that makes it even more OP does consist of 2 men and a robot. The new Turians have a dodge that's a little slower, but covers more ground, and have toughness directly tied to how many grenades they have left(as they have a survival ops pack type ability that uses grenades).
I don't recall Quarian combatants as being strictly female in the lore, just that they were the only gender with a rendered model for ME1 so that was all we ever saw(same reason why all we ever see is Turian males). If it had been female, it would have knocked out 2 things at once from your post, as the Quarian Marksman has the Marksman ability, which is what gives the Turian Soldier his spot in the trio of "can make any weapon OP". The Quarian will soon be joining them and I'll have to come up with a new name for them.
Also, am I just crazy and making things up, or did Eve say that all Krogan Shaman were female? The new adept is listed as "Krogan Shaman" in the game files.
However, as I've been going through those files throughout the day, I recently just finished looking at the sounds and I can confirm that there aren't any surprises with the unreleased characters. They are all male, depending on what you consider Geth. At one point I might have mentioned lore but screw it, we have Volus now(not that I'm terribly broken up about lore being bent for the sake of MP).
I believe the Krogan Adept was listed as having limited mobility when I looked at it before they removed the unreleased characters from the character select screen, so no biotic dodge.
I'd say if there is more DLC planned it's a fight you could probably win if you kept up posting about it. Having equal representation is a thing I would support. They appear to listen to the forums on the wants of future DLC quite a bit. Krogan Vanguard, Quarian Males, and Volus were all asked for on a fairly regular basis from what I remember. The only thing we ask for a lot they haven't given us is Protheans. Though for more female characters I really just see you and Liarasshield making threads about it.
Yeah, I was talking toughness. It's part of the fomula, and it's really important. Having female characters that rival a lot of the guys is the whole formula.
No, Lore doesn't paint quarian females as the only combatants, but in MP that was the way it was a long time. I'm not mad so much that male quarians violate lore, it's that there's no give, and take with it, and a ton of people are hoping mad that someone expects them to give.
Quarians are represented by both genders. I'm waiting for Turians, and Krogans to do the same. Lore doesn't say only guys are the fighters in those genders. Infact it says the opposite.
And yeah, even before the patch marksman pumped up the damage of a weapon making TSol one of those infamous three. Post patch? Probably moreso.
Bioware's really giving the weapon classes the beans with grenade buffs, weapon buffs, and new weapons, and weapons mods thast really just don't seem to be there for power lobbers. So there's a bit more frustration for me.
Not all Krogan females were Shaman. Grunt lets on intently about a female warlord. I'd like to think they have a lot of statuses, and hierarchy especially since there's a clan of entirely women.
Pretty sure there's at least one more mention of a female warrior.
In general, they're all tough to put up with marauding males.
From the thumbnail the Krogan Shaman looks like the kroguard. Hard to tell from what little footage there was, but I'd like to think that if they did make a female Krogan, they'd incorporate elements from Eve's wonderful outfit so they'd stand out more.
The voice will probably tell all. Odds are good it'll just be the typical krogan voice, like your findings, well, find.

The way the Geth are built, and sound, I consider them like Asari, but guys.
They sound like guys, the'yre built like guys.
If we get a geth sounds like and shaped like Edi then we can talk about them being dual gendered.

I certainly hope there's more DLC planned, and I can win this, along with others who want what I do (though not necessarily for the same reasons. Either way, we'll both be happy, I'm sure.) I'd feel really good about it. it'd probably be the first time I've ever been listened to, even as a group as far as games go. This isn't the first battleground 've had. If Mass Effect does what I ask, it may well be the last, though. There's very few other games in it's genre I'd rather play.
The problem with continually making posts about it, and I'd say I have considering some of the responses I've gotten, is that I don't wanna maul people with the idea. I really don't. ranting and raving isn't my favorite approach.
I'd like to get support, and see it happen peacefully. I've tried that, however, and it's just not all that likely.
I'm just bent out of shape coz I'm extremely skeptical of just how close female aliens are to being next, though. Especially after this DLC!
On the bright side, they've done just about everything. More female aliens -have- to be higher on the list now? One can only hope!
But odds are I think we'd see a pack of 6 prothean guys before we see a female turian, or female krogan. Possibly before we see a new female quarian now that Quarian male's dug in.
I really don't feel like making a whole new character is necessary when I just want variations of existing classes, or even duplicates of existing classes like a lot of people suggest we should have.
Honestly, I was hoping that by now, Bioware could've hammered a few out. I guess not. :/
Still, I'm not opposed to a collaboration.
