You should always choose to take Liara to Mars and Thessia.

Yeah, I like taking her to Eden Prime too.

Menae is totally awesome with her and James.

not nearly as cool as having kaidan at Grissom Academy

BUT BOY DO I LOVE TAKING ARIA AND NYREEN TO OMEGA.

Or Miranda choosing to get a pedicure during the assualt on Cerberus

To invoke the battle of the headcanon, Thessia in mine is a scarred wasteland that is, due to the Asari's antics, low on the priority for reconstruction. Deal with it.

Slides disprove it, and you are a regrettably silly man.

No it doesn't. Those slides could be at any point in the next few centuries.

You sure? We have no estimate for how long it takes to rebuild Thessia. It could take centuries.

The developers said at the SDCC last year that the time frame for rebuilding everything was ten to fifteen years.

That's an out of game comment and has nothing to do with headcanon.

If the devs said it, it's canon. So 10 to 15 years to rebuild everything now. Didn't know. It's all good. Space magic for the win. Mac, your wasteland is no good anymore. Sorry, you were overruled. They want to make more Mass Effect.

It doesn't matter really because Earth is going to be fixed up first. With the Citadel right there its gonna get the most attention.

MENext isn't even connected, so that really wouldn't matter.

I took Kaidan to the monastery, but didn't get the biotic floating line. When does it happen?

At the wrecked elevator, I think.

Actually, I think Shepard has to be a biotic as well.

It can be both. If you're not Biotic, Shep will ask if he can float like that. He'll say not anytime soon. If both Biotic, they agree they both can't. I think only Asari or Jack have shown that level of control.

I think it's less Shep can't and more he/she doesn't bother learning. (Either that or that heavy ass armor gets in the way).

It makes no sense that adept Shep doesn't have that level of control.  Vanguard/Sent Shep? Sure they don't specialize in biotics. Adept Shep? Uh...especially adept Shep with brand new Cerberus implants? It's pretty much using Lift on themselves. (also when does Jack float?) Shep's biotic abilities are pretty much all CC (Singularity, Shockwave, Throw, Pull).

Plus if Shep could that'd mean different lvl design instead of pretending everyone's a soldier outside of like 2 conversations. Can't have that. <_<

Citadel or not, why should any species fix any world first but their own? Asari will rebuild Thessia and humans will rebuild Earth. That's the most logical thing.

I think this is more the case with Shepards who are Sentinels or Adepts, not that they couldn't learn to do it they just didn't. Vanguards kind of do something similar with Charge, but of course that just slingshotting themselves from point A to point B. At extreme high velocities and with the intention of doing serious damage to the person they are launching themselves at. So a Vanguard Shepard could charge herself down to the second level, but would be leaving her companions behind. Hence Shepard's dialog about her and Kaidan both being out of luck on that one.

(also when does Jack float?)

Grissom Academy. She jumps out of that window, after you defeat the Cerberus troops in Orion Hall. I wouldn't say she floats exactly, but she does soften her landing with her biotics.

As to the actual topic at hand, I take Garrus everywhere in all three Mass Effect games, (as he's usually who I'm romancing) so it all depends on who works well with Garrus.  So this is who I take and why.

ME1:
Therum: This is one of the few places that I like to take both Kaidan and Ashley. "Dare you to spit over the side?"

Feros: Garrus and Tali. I like the insight that Tali brings to the mission about the Geth and I like that look Shep and Garrus exchange just before going down to deal with the Thorian.

Virmire: I actually like take either Liara, Kaidan or Ashley when you find the beacon there just because they are the only people that would recognize it as like the one on Eden Prime.

Noveria: Liara for obvious reasons. And usually Garrus, but Wrex and Ashley have unique dialog here when deciding what to do with the Rachni queen.

There is one side mission in ME1 that I always take Kaidan on and that is the one where those biotics are holding Chairman Burns hostage, since he has unique dialog there.

ME2:
Mordin Recruitment: Garrus and Zaeed. Garrus for drama and for some unique dialog from Mordin about Turians and humans.

Jack Recruitment: Miranda. I like to think it's Miranda's comment about knocking Jack out that sparks their animosity. I know Garrus will say the same thing if you take him with someone else, but it doesn't have with same "bite" that Miranda saying it does.

Grunt Recruitment: Jack (with Garrus again) mainly because she's one of the few characters that doesn't complain when Shep makes that merc think he's going to bleed to death.

Horizon: I like to take Jack and Garrus. I like what Garrus says to the VS (and it's interesting to point out that Garrus calls Kaidan by his first name and Ashley by her last name) and Jack's line "Whatever you say, Boss Lady."

Collector Ship: Garrus and Miranda. I like to think this is where the cracks start to form in Miranda's perception of the Illusive Man and Cerberus.

Derelict Reaper: I like taking Garrus and Jack. Just because Jack has Shockwave and so does my Vanguard Shep. Blitzed husks everywhere!

Collector Base: Miranda. For reasons.

ME3:
I like taking Garrus with Liara on Eden Prime. Just because I think the three of them (Garrus, Liara and Shep) represent this cycle well to Javik, "Human, asari, turian." 

And Garrus and Liara on Sur'kesh as well because of their banter.

Garrus or EDI on Grissom Academy. Just because if you played Overlord and sent David Archer there then he recognizes either of them. I also like to take James.

Kadian on both Lessus and Gellix. For the aforementioned dialog and for that conversation that you have post mission, respectively.

Garrus is good for both the downed turian ship and the Citadel Coup just because he's a turian and he's exC-Sec. Makes for unique dialog.

I also like to take Garrus on the Geth dreadnaught with Tali because of their banter.

I know I take Garrus too many places.

[Ryzaki]

Ahh I forgot about Shep's vanguard charge then. But yeah Shep floating would leave the rest of his her companions up ****s creek XD.

And I don't tend to have Jack in ME3 so I forgot that scene XD.

[shit's fucked cunts]

Moving away from Javik and Thessia... Garrus on the dreadnought with an unromanced Tali.

I feel like Cupid, armed with mass accelerators instead of a love-bow.

[Han Shot First]

Javik on Thessia. As a Prothean he has more insight than the other squaddies, and his interaction with Liara is great.

Garrus for Eden Prime. "Turians..humans..Asari. I'm surrounded by primitives!"

Garrus and Liara on Sur'Kesh for a joke referencing Lair of the Shadow Broker. Also Wrex makes comments about part of the old gang being together.

Ashley or Kaiden on the Tuchanka bomb mission. (Virmire references)

Garrus for the rescue of Lt. Victus' platoon. As Turian military he has some personal input.

Garrus for the Cerberus coup for personal input. (references his time at C-Sec)

Shepard's LI (if applicable) to Horizon for some romance-specific dialogue.

Shepard's LI (if applicable) for Leviathan's last mission for some romance-specific dialogue.

Shepard's LI (if applicable) on the Extended Cut beam rush for some romance-specific dialogue.

I just watched that on youtube, and his reaction EDI is just as funny. Also Javik not shaking Shepard's hand makes more sense if EDI is present.

[KaiserShep]

Garrus and Liara are my standard for Sur'Kesh because of their commentary, particularly since Garrus went with my Shepard to fight the Shadow Broker base, as well as my standard for Eden Prime.

Garrus always goes to the dreadnought because the commentary leads in nicely to the relationship developing between him and Tali.

Javik goes on both of the final missions of Tuchanka and Rannoch, since his whole reason to be there is to witness the deaths of actual reapers.

Javik is a must for both Leussus and Thessia for me (I always bring Liara to Leussus).

I feel that Garrus and James are the perfect "police squad" team for the N7 missions, with Kaidan taking Garrus' place one he's on the ship. Garrus and Zaeed/Grunt fulfilled this role for ME2.

Wrex always goes to the Citadel archives for me. I usually bring Liara and Garrus to retake the Normandy though. I like Garrus' comments about the maintenance duct in the Normandy being sized for keepers.

For thematic effect, I always take James and Kaidan on the first run through Earth to take out the Hades cannon, since they're the two earthlings that have been aching to get back. Liara and Garrus take over for the final run, mostly for the goodbye scene, but also because I head-canon that both Kaidan and James went off to lead their own teams, and reason that a scientist and former Citadel security who happens to be tech savvy would be the best options to go up the beam in case Shepard doesn't make it.

I found Grunt was the funniest squadmate to take on this mission: "Jack's small." "Let's get down there, I want to see how long she lasts." "Just shoot her and patch her up on the ship." Grunt is generally one of the more amusing squad mates. For the Samara recruitment, he is the only one who wants Shepard to pit them against impossible odd more often. (Kasumi also has some funny lines during Samara's recruitment: after Niftu Cal decides to go take a nap, Kasumi goes "Aww, can we keep him?")

Why, because you don't like that other people feel differently about the Asari than you? I'd love to let the Asari know that karma is a ****. They fully deserve what they got. 

Did they truly? Only a few Asari knew what really was in the temple. Liara certainly didn't know. 
So do you condemn all Asari based on the actions of a few?

[Twisted Path]

I highly recommend *not* taking Javik on the final beam-rush mission if you have the extended cut. Forcing Mr. "I Must Fight the Reapers to My Last Breath" to medevac in the middle of Armageddon was the dumbest thing.

I hear if you bring EDI on that mission Shepard orders that they medevac her robot body, which seems even sillier.

[favoritehookeronthecitadel]

I always take Garrus and Wrex and Kaidan frequently. And Ashley on the Citadel where you're disguised because she just, damn. I'd touch her with a thermometer just to be safe.

Your whole post was great to read. I almost always take Miranda on Grunt's recruitment (mainy just because I took Miranda everywhere), and she calls Shepard's threat a "nice touch."  

[Uncle Jo]

Javik is my favourite mE3 squaddie. But still:

- Take him on Rannoch.
- Side with the Geth.
- Don't forget to wear the Collector armor.

[trenq]

i have to try that

[xassantex]

javik on Sur'Kesh .. if you have Wrex . His comment about a flying freak show still cracks me up,.
