Cryo blast is a power I can never seem to get any use out of, Ops Packs are something that should be way more plentiful since the class depends on them, and the air charge power.....thing doesn't restore your shields or seem to do any amount of respectable damage, while putting you in an incredibly dangerous situation.
What am I doing wrong, and how have people who have had success with this class specced it out to make it work?
Is it just me, or does the Havoc suck?

Dude. The Havoc Soldier might just be the best in the game. Try this build.
4: Damage
4: Shields
6: Duration, Speed, Vuln.
6. Damage, Headshots, Damage
6: All Health
Great damage dealer, with the ability to quickly recover shields and Havoc can stagger annoying enemies like Nemesis, Phantoms. It kicks ass. Spam Cryo and go for headshots.

This is about the 6th thread on this and while I don't think he sucks persay, he's lacking. Havoc Strike is very underwhelming as is his melee and lolCryoblast.

Take grenade capacity, for whatever reason it increases the amount of packs you can carry.

No point in specing for Cryo.
50% armor debuff with 25% headshot bonus and 45% movement speed penalty isn't enough reason?

Cryo isn't great, but in the hands of a Soldier its tons more useful. It's like prox mine except with the added bonus of Cryo Explosions.

It is dodged frequently on higher difficulties and those points are better spent elsewhere on the Havoc. 3 at most IMO.

Which will almost never happen due to it freeze functioning like Pull. No shields/Barriers allowed.

I was caving in Geth heads left and right with the Phaeston X, since it was my best AR. Imma try the Harrier now. I expect greatness. The Locust might also be really good because of it's headshot multiplier. You don't need 200% recharge with this build, but if you keep it low you can spam Cryo.

I specced cryo for boss killing. I havoc strike frequently and don't have to use stim packs often the way I play. I only have three ranks in stim pack I think. Cryo blast is underrated a little...
Someone said that if you get both the power damage and force bonuses from the class skill tree, you can stun gold phantoms.

Havoc is amazing. Grenade Capacity V and the Havoc Strike mean you can Strike in, heavy melee, dodge back, Strike again (since your cooldown is likely over at this point), use Stimulant if necessary, weapon when appropriate. This guy is sick. So so good. Almost impossible to kill with proper Stimpack use.

I think the harrier is a good fit for this guy and especially the ghost (the clip size matches up well with TC's cooldown duration.) Its pathetic reserve ammo means you'll be visiting ammo boxes a lot, which means you'll also stay stocked up on stimpaks.

It's also refilled at the ammo box where your grenades would refill too. Comes in handy.

The havoc is my favourite so far! I have him specced for cryo so I can easily freeze a few mooks and fly into them, shattering them to pieces for lovely cryo explosions!!! I carry the raider X, freeze.. destroy.. freeze destroy. More fun then a barrel of monkeys.
