I guess you can choose to play a kit in a support role like a kit using sabotage for a flame using team mate etc but not sure you can actually categorise any kit as a support kit

The Krojock and Wonder Bratarian are great supports.

[VAFeuerstein]

any character that synergizes with another one on the team becomes a "support character"

a character with chain overload would augment a snap-freeze or a flamer character.
an adept with reave would augment a biotic team.
prox mines and cryo attacks augment weapon damage.

"support" is a very relative term. While I agree that the best support is the one that kills best, being able to play off each others strengths is usually as helpful and a whole lot more enjoyable to play.

edit: redjohn pls.  why did I respond to this thread??

GI is the best support character:

Cloak to heal allies/do objectives
Proxy mine debuff
Hunter Mode gives wallhack to inform teammates on enemy movements
Heavy Melee is AOE and stunlocks some enemies, allowing allies to get potshots.

Tada, support!

agreed.

Support is somebody who is there to assist the team by doing things which are not primarily directly dealing damage. This can be debuffing, buffing, healing/shield restore, or tanking enemies.

There is no kit in this game which is a pure support character, but there are support builds which mainly are Volus or Juggernaut.

[Supreme Leech]

The volus are typical support classes, they're extremely weak defensively and have no offensive power, they can't really perform an effective task on the battle field, but another idea would be to convert all the basic vanilla human characters into AI support squad mates that can revive other players, help with objectives, and of course they have access to missiles and medi gels, they're not controlled by the player, they're AI, they're just present in the background providing support for the rest of the team. Just an idea that has been floating around.

[Titus Thongger]

imo, kits that debuff enemies or buff teammates or have indirect abilities that alleviate pressure from the team eg sabotage keeping a geth prime from firing from a teammate for a few seconds.

so in general, FQE, FQI, male quarians, AJ, and volus, all to some extent can be qualified as 'support classes'.

but that shouldn't stop them from being just as killy as the next guy, male quarians especially

[didacuscarr]

There is no such thing as a support character. Though there are some powers that can affect your team and play styles that make things easier for your team.

[Pyroninja42]

Krogan Vanguard. Supports the team by winning the game for them.

Why does a support character have to equal being bad or a kit that sucks? If played well a support character is a great asset because they do just that; support the team.

I consider it to be a character that isn't a big damage dealer outright, but does any of the following: debuffs, boosts shields, crowd control, primes and/or detonates combos. Any of the Volus are good examples. I also consider the FQE to be a great support character.

I play a FQE almost exclusively and certainly dont mind being "support"  She's fast, nimble and with my M-90 Indra (not the highest damage dealer by far) but I can strip armor across the board before I can readily target them and am almost always the top or second highest score.

Personally, I think that a support character has the most DIFFICULT task and if you are playing it right, WILL go down because you are re-directing the enemy Aggro from the rest of the team during objectives or covering someone who is reviving a teammate.

i'm not the Best by any means, but I do what I can to support the rest of my team and keep them alive.

[corporal doody]

no such thing as a support character or support class in ME3MP. some folks gonna label the characters they dont think that can kill as fast as the ones they like to play as support.

It is a crock of crappola.

You crazy, that FQE is good damnit!

And I would think that any Stasis carrying character would make good support for any biotic squad. While turrents & volus sheild boast bring the support!

A support character is one that makes the game easier for everyone. We are all support characters.

Sure. She can teleport in to revive and also does good damage.
