Just out of curiosity, if your main Shepard changed classes throughout all 3 games, how did you headcanon those changes? I know his/her class means sqaut with regards to the story but I wonder if anyone tried to rationalize it within the game's universe?

Me, I've only changed classes from an ME2 Soldier > ME3 Infiltrator, and that was for  my Insanity run.

Adept to Vanguard...

I just headcanon'd my Shepard finding new biotic implants on space eBay or something.

[The Night Mammoth]

Shep's body was exposed to a stupid amount of eezo after dying, and Cerberus couldn't completely free her of the effects, so adapted her into an Adept.

Normally it's just solider soldier soldier though, for my main run.

When my ME2 Soldier became an Adept in ME3, I just headcanoned it as Shep extensively training his latent biotic powers in the 6 months he was in incarceration.
Much better than him just sitting on his rear end waiting for the Reapers to arrive.

I wonder if biotics are less likely to become indoctrinated?

If so then that's a pretty good reason for Shepard to switch before ME3.

Fairly easy for both imports (although I was an infiltrator throughout - this is just in case I had changed):

ME1 to ME2: Cerberus didn't rebuild him/her perfectly.

ME2 to ME3: Shepard did have a spare 6 months in Alliance Custody, well aware that the Reapers were coming. He/she could easily have used the time to train him/herself into a new class, or discover a latent biotic talent (or, potentially, lost his/her biotic abilities due to complications with his/her implants.)

Soldier in ME1. Switched to infiltrator for ME2 and 3. I just headcanon that he... started to like using snipers after the events of ME1.

[SNascimento]

No. never changed it.

[Chaotic-Fusion]

My canon Shepard went from soldier to vanguard to sentinel. From ME1/2 Cerberus simply rebuilt him and added some biotic implants to make him more effective, from there Shepard simply learnt some tech skills during his incarceration... and somehow lost biotic charge, the cerberus implants may have malfunctioned.

Maybe? I was initially going to say no because Matriach Benezia, who was one of the most powerful biotics in the galaxy (according to lore) was still indoctrinated and had to be put down. Though she did show more resistance than most.

Then again it may have been her great rack that protected her.

On topic: My shepard never changed classes. He was a soldier all the way through. I like to think he just wasn't physically capable of using the implants, so he used his guns and fists instead.

Infiltrator all the way. No headcanon required!

Though if I had, it would've been similar reasoning as above, e.g. rebuilding of Shepard allowed Cerberus to tailor his/her abilities pre-ME2, while the low-security imprisonment pre-ME3 gave Shepard ample time and opportunity to re-train any necessary skills for the fight ahead.

I never changed classes between games. Hooray for continuity!

ME1: Infiltrator. Strong soldier/tech guy.
ME2: Sentinel. Lazarus'd into biotics. Strong biotic and tech, but still good with weapons.
ME3: Sentinel.

[mumba]

Soldier to infiltrator to sentinel.

This. Though my Shep somehow learnt how to become a biotic freight train inbetween ME1 and 2, and then how to become a walking bomb inbetween ME2 and ME3.

[Ticonderoga117]

Infiltrator to Infiltrator to Infiltrator.

Why? Because continuity and F.U. Awesome sniper rifle!

I'm curious as to how people managed to roleplay a nonbiotic to biotic change when the game gives it no acknowledgment.

Like let's say you were a soldier in ME1, switched to vanguard in ME2, and you rationalize this by saying Cerberus wanted to "improve" Shepard as much as possible, so they threaded him/her with eezo.

But this is never brought up, so how do you keep the glaring lack of acknowledgment of it from disrupting your immersion? You would think a person would be affected emotionally by such a forced change. That Shepard would accept it without even mentioning it -- and, indeed, use his/her newfound powers without a hitch or a moment of training -- seems implausible.
