If you're saying that being at melee range or meleeing makes you a Vanguard than the Jugg is also a Vanguard, All Batarians who punch people are Vanguards, and Volus doing a melee bubble is a Vanguard. All Krogans are Vanguards. 

Does that include the Krogan with Javelins or are we(rightly so) not considering them true Krogan?

People who spec out of Poison Strike really aren't playing the Cabal... Just sayin'

Poison Strike is awesome, I really don't understand your problem. And there will always be a "better" option, why don't you just play GI instead, if you want a "better" option?

Lolno

Poison Strike is a PoS. Hit detection is janky. Damage isn't anything special, and it's focus on DoT is kind of retarded in this game. In fact, all of her powers blow against armor. If I wanted a weapons platform, there are plenty of better ones to choose, not just GI.

Now, I ****ing hate Platinum, so for me, there are few kits that I don't use. I'm just saying that if you're going to choose to play Platinum (why you would play this horribly designed mode, idk, but whatever), you'd be better off choosing something more optimal. It already feels like work. No point in making that specific difficulty any more tedious than it needs to be.

What is the problem with poison strike?

It sucks. The greatest things about BC were basically split between PS and BF, and it's still not even close to being as good as BC.

I feel like the class needs geth scanner to be good, but I feel like I can't use Nightshade Blades as freely then.

I hate it.

havent really used her in a long while. Took me forever to find a decent build with her. Been playing a lot the last few days.

been running a 4/6/6/6/4 build. first tried with the hurricane and/or carnifex...but last night finally tried her with a shotty (wraith) LOVED IT! fire ammo all the way!....nice fire explosion when PS'd through.

People can't wrap their minds around the fact that it's not supposed to be used the exact same way as biotic charge.

Seems like my question was vague. I was just asking to find out if there's a glitch/bug or something. I've only used poison strike once or twice, didn't notice any problems with it.

Anyway, seeing as I have no clue about poison strike, perhaps someone can educate me. How should it be specced? How and when should it be used?

I'm going to take a closer look at the code for Poison Strike this weekend(looking at Phantoms right now), but from a quick glance at it, as best as I can tell there is a problem in how the game does its hit detection for the ability.

It mostly affects the ability when going through solid objects, and results in certain enemies not being hit.

I thought it only hit enemies perpendicularly to the straight line you were moving in.

I've seen it do a lot of different things, including hit an enemy that wasn't really that close to me off to the right side and forward a bit and through a wall.

I always thought it hit the dude in front of you (maybe a few more of clustered in front of you) anything you turn up would be cool

This exactly.

It's one of my favorite utility powers.

I used the Cabal for 3 out of 5 of the games I played today. She has great weapon damage bonuses like my Drell Adept, but I just can't figure out a weapon to use on her. I'm thinking the Wraith maybe..because I hate doing a melee build.

I got a few Poison Strike kills but it's most useful for mobility and Nightshade Blades are hard for me to like. But Biotic Focus is too great to pass up because of two below par powers :/ I still love her dodge though :3

Raider :3 

Lancer also works great on her

I'd pick a Raider of over the Wraith on her. PPR is also great since Biotic Focus doesn't have an animation.

She's one of the few kits I use the crusader with. Works nice in general - Crusader isn't so bad against big targets and for mooks I like to go melee anyway. And when in doubt I got BF and stagger blades.

But the lancer is absolutely great on her! I always play the cabal with an incendiary lancer and acolyte, I find it to be very effective, gives you really good range and sustained damage.
