Soldier played as a Vanguard, using heightened adrenaline rush (HAR) in place of charge. Although you not traverse the entire map instantly as a Vanguard, it is possible (with passive bonus, armor additions) to reach enemies quite far away. And HAR provides a HUGE damage bonus when you connect (point blank) with a shotgun...



The build (level 16) is based on HAR + passive, cryo ammo (Evi), incendiary ammo (Mattock), with slam (bonus) and deep cryo (Mordon) as short cool-down disablers, and warp (Miranda) and incinerate (Mordin) for barrier/armor stripping (and the occasional warp bomb!). Details at 16:52.

Soldier was the first class I played (before really understanding the game mechanics), so got bored spamming AR from cover.  However, having a lot of mileage now with the shotgun + mobility powers (as VG, CQC infilltrator), I decided to give soldier another try...  with fun results.  Thanks to RedCaesar for the inspiration!

Some good stuff.

For more shotgunny goodness, be sure to check out the Shotgun Heavy Soldier thread by Ryoldschool. Ryolschool has since taken down his videos, but the thread does contain contributions from Mi-Chan, Stardusk78, and myself.

And I would be remiss if I did not link to my favorite video in that thread: Claymore Soldier defends the hatch by Mi-Chan (CoffeeHolic93). Seriously, it is just freaking insane.

Sad, I was wondering where those vids got too, sounds like they were entertaining and instructive.

I'm not a huge fan of the Claymore myself, but do SO enjoy experiencing it vicariously through others. There's nothing like seeing a big fire explosion followed by 5 mooks in a pack all screaming and trying to put the flames out...

That is sad, that Ryold's stuff is now gone. Man, we really played ME2 to death back in the day. There is probably literally no trick left to that game that we didn't already crack at BSN.

Shep still can't decide if he wants to be a soldier or vanguard when he grows up.  But that's OK.  He still likes to get in Harbi's face with a shotgun, and send him home to his mama (he get's CQ'd about half a dozen times in this video, as well as a few other goodies).  Enjoy.



Level 21 build:

10 - heightened adrenaline rush
3 - disruptor ammo
3 - incendiary ammo (on Mattock)
10 - improved cryo ammo (on Evi)
10 - shock trooper
6 - Slam

Shotgun is level 3, Assault rifle and shields level 4.  Might have to try this again with a different assault rifle next time.  HAR + mattock is just...broken.  But it certainly does save time witth those pesky scions and Preatorians.  Good grief.
