What's your best build for her? I'm thinking 6/6/6, with the rest divided between passive skills... this good?

Also, how do you play her? run up to the enemies with AF on, and blast Warp? Which weapon to use?

So many questions.... I just can't figure her out

Same thing with Fury, really.

I went 6/6/6/4/4

BE and double tap to the face with a raider shotgun, that's how I like playing the valkyrie.

 4/6/6/6/4

go up to the enemies use warp-> 30% debuff then shoot them to hell with a high dps weapon like harrier reegar talon piranha claymore...

Edit: use warp ammo when you can

Awww okay... So cooldown doesn't really matter? I've been running her with a hurricane 200% CD.. Doesn't spamming warp equal more BEs?

[UKStory135]

As long as you put 6 points in Warp and 6 points in AF, the rest of the the choices all kind of fall in the same passive power damage, cooldowns, and fitness areas. In the end, you will get about the same results no matter how you spec the other powers.

All true but I use pirahana warp rounds and power amp IV

Here's how I play the Valkyrie. 6/6/6/4/4

Tech Armor: Durability/Power Damage/Recharge
Warp: Detonate/Expose/Pierce
Annihilation Field: Radius/Damage Taken/Drain
Passive: Capacity
Fitness: Health

Weapon: Claymore w/ EB and Smart Choke (AP ammo)

Basically, this is a much better boss killer than the Fury. All the debuffs (AF and Warp) take down bosses very quickly. Run in, use Warp and follow up your BE with a Claymore shot. Plus the AF damage itself.

Also, for crowds, you have very good survivability, and I always use the Shield Booster gear on her. Just think before you charge in.

Piranha is for girls, its easy to aim, too forgiving of poor accuracy and deals too much damage for how much it weights.

I don't like it.

The only thing I don't like about this variant is you miss out on the tech armor's rank 5 of power damage bonus, as well as reducing the casting penalty on your biotics (Rank 6).  maybe I'm just trying to think of her as a beefier Fury with the ability for double debuff as well as i bio-bomb damage % increase.....I really need to unlock her.

[BanditGR]

Also using Piranha, warp rounds and power amp but 6/6/6/5/3 for a bit more power damage instead of an amount of shields that won't make a difference on gold or plat.

hmm, maybe I'll try the more "tankier" valkyrie now. Strap on a GPS or Claymore, screw the cooldown, right?

I find it best to keep the players cooldown at around the same time as their weapon cycle.  A Wraith takes 3.2 seconds to fire, so I want my power cooldowns to be close to that, which puts me at a 110% cooldown.  If I'm playing for multiple BE's, I'm playing the Fury over the Valkyrie anyway.

[Boretsky]

6/6/6/4/4 is my build, I prefer the decent weight to power guns, talon, wraith, pirahna, scorpion. get in close BE, then mop up the rest with your gun, use second BE if anything is still alive by the time warp cools down.

Dunno, I've been getting more and more disappointed with the Piranha the more I use it.

The recoil during fine aim is significant and the pellet spread on anything that isn't a Geth/Destroyer with Smart Choke from cover makes even the most basic of mooks (Husk/Aboms) take several shots to kill from anything other than point blank. Makes for a good Shotgun on almost any Vanguard. Biotic Charge in, blow your load, wig out.

That and isn't it's DPS inferior to both the Reegar and the Raider?

You don't need either. It's not about BEs or powerdamage, but debuffing enemies then killing them with big guns 

[Dragonhalls]

use acolyte

it takes away their shield/cloak and stunned them for u to get near af range,then cast warp...explosion
most efficient with geth expecially that nuisance bomber

Don't play her as a gimped Fury. Use her as a debuffer and slap on a good weapon (like one of the high-dps shotguns). She's an excellent boss killer.

[Lucrece]

I won't play it with anything less than a Reegar and both damage debuffs. Reegar with armor pen is just too godly on this class. And reegar with incendiary ammo, crap just melts.

I used to like the N7 Paladin, but this is a just plain better class for everything outside Collectors.

Mooks too, if you carry a reegar and storm in for AF BE's.

Collectors give a hard time because it's just plain suicidal to be out of cover for any considerable amount of time against them. Stronger ranged classes perform better against Collectors unless you have teammates who will do mook CC for you while you go hunting Praetorians.

And, sorry, but the Valkyrie will never, ever be a gimped fury under any circumstance. It's so much more survivable, has a better, reliable dodge outside wall porting, and can actually stay out spraying people with AF BE's in higher difficulties while not being pathetic against boss units.

Personally, 6/6/6/0/6

The bonus from Asari Valkyrie Power damage is kind of meaningless (for my play style), since it does not effect power combos. Annihilation field and warp biotic combo setup the majority of my damage.

I tend to run the class with the piranha shotgun, but I also have used the Talon and Acolyte pistol.

[TrollBerzerker01]

Mine is 4/6/6/4/6

I think the Valkyrie really needs a good weapon to make her shine. Something with good damage, since she's not exactly like the Fury and can't keep spamming explosions at all ranges and needs to take her targets down fast when she gets next to them. But it also needs to provide a semi-low cooldown so she can consistently cause explosions in melee.

My favorite weapon on her is the Piranha. It hits hard at close range and provides a nice cooldown. A close second is the Reegar Carbine, which hits a bit harder but causes a longer cooldown. Whichever of these two weapons is the highest level for you is what I would use.

[Lucrece]

Reegar has the benefit of stunning, CC's crowds of enemies with its spread, and it absolutely wrecks Phantoms. I'm a fan of the Piranha -- on classes that have CC skills to supplement it, which the Valkyrie does not.

[darkpassenger2342]

being able to spam warp is essential, i dont like high cooldowns on this class.

[Swan Killer]

6/6/6/4/4

Piranha and Wraith V+ excellent on her, 140-170% cooldown, excellent long and short range debuffer, AF+Warp for mooks, Warp+Shotgun for bosses (preferebly with inc. ammo).
Very unique and versatile character. One of my favorites for sure.

66644 all debuffs is working great for me, I take a pihrana and storm the flanks
