The GI is the best boss killer in the game (and very good at wiping out mooks .. top tier for sure, but not the best)

As far as perfection, he's my favorite character, so yes, he's perfect

There seem to be 2 debates in this thread however .. 1 re the GI, and 1 re "OPness"

My 2 cents on OPness ... those that whine that the GI is too OP haven't seen a grenade spamming vanguard in skilled hands then ...

Edit. I agree with Holy Avenger, Grende capacity V is ridiculous ... used in conjunction with any grenade class with either BC or TC .. and voila, broken


Oops, didn't mean to quote myself in another, seperate post ... apologies

I have actually, I normally run her with raider+warp ammo, but I do enjoy me some good cheese from time to time.

Look, I'm just saying; she's a very well-designed kit, but people can't take their eyes off the cheese long enough to see it. Or at least, the cheese is overshadowing her design. Everytime I see her mentioned, so too is the Reegar/Incendiary + Warp glitch, like that's the only way to run her.

I'd actually give that to the Valkyrie. Probably the fastest boss killer

And, IMO, those are clearly the best two boss killers ... but I dunno, the GI does it damn fast

I prefer the Salarian Infiltrator over GI.

[ToaOrka]

I was kinda with you until you mentioned that he's
the best melee kit. The Krogan Warlord is insanely
superior to the GI in terms of raw damage output,
and anybody that can play him properly needn't
worry about the possibility of sync-kills.

We are not intentionally perfect.

Best sniping kit in the game imo. The drell infiltrator would be my second choice.

It's definitely a glass cannon though, so it'll just end up dying all the time if the user isn't very skilled/experienced and/or there's a lot of lag.

Other kits for sniping are alright, but I see powers like sabotage or energy drain as crutches where sniping is concerned (instant stun inducing, easier headshots).

The GI doesn't just stand in the middle of the map, aim and push a three button combination.

You're right. He moves around the map while pushing a two button combination.

I disagree with the statement that the GI takes very little skill. I use him a lot and find him very easy to play despite his squishiness, but neither I nor Lightswitch for example represent the majority of the player base. When you go into PuGs you can see TGIs and AIUs with Grenade Capacity V kiss the ground 50% of the match. And they are using Harriers and Reegars, which are stupidly overpowered on these kits.

Give those players a GI with 350-700 shields and no free shield recharge/revive and they will spent 90% of every game in spectator mode. There is a reason why he is not overplayed like the other kits I mentioned. It's easy for us to say that he takes little skill, when we actually have a lot of skill.

fwiw I'm not saying the GI takes no skill, or that he's game-breaking, is ez-mode, or even takes very little skill. But he doesn't take any more skill to play effectively than any other kit in the game except for a couple even more ridiculous kits. He also takes less skill to get good results with than most of the other kits in the game. A GI with a Hurricane or a Piranha doesn't require the player to even have good aim. Just run around roflstomping everything with your wall hack and proximity mine.

I have more respect for people who can make the GI Javelin work well, but that has more to do with the oddities of the weapon than the kit.

Let's be honest, nothing in this game requires a crap load of skill unless you're playing against yourself in time or other players in score. The GI at least requires you to aim unlike most grenadier or other AOE power kits, and he can actually die unlike the noob numbskull kits.

I'm sorry that's BS. Tell me WTF interesting decision a Kroguard is making during gameplay?

Strawman. I never claimed that the Kroguard is an example of good design.

Try that again with "Turian Sentinel" and we could have a conversation that involved both of us.
