I favour single shot guns on my HEng's, so that I can get very quick kills in 1v1's vs shielded mooks such as marauders, which are often the ones that down me if I don't kill 'em quickly.  The executioner pistol is perfect for this, it's like it was made for the HEng.

 

The falcon's a good choice too.  Take 6a on incinerate, load up some cryo ammo, and have fun adding cryo explosions to the FE's and TB's.

My usual build for the HE is 6/6/6/4/4, with Incinerate set for damage on chilled targets. Typically I use an SMG/Cryo Ammo III or IV. I have to admit, it's one of my favorite kits to play and it works really well, no matter what faction I play.

Too bad vanilla humans weren't included in challenges :(


Their challenge should unlock the Racist banner.

0/6/6/6/6 with the Wraith/Talon/Paladin/Executioner/Claymore depending on my mood.

 

This.

 

The Adas is a great choice as well.

QUESTION: Will recasting the combat drone cause the first drone to do damage if it is specced with Detonate 4b?  I've wondered this when recasting the drone on a new enemy whether the (still active) first drone killed whatever enemy was swarming on it.  But, I'm usually too distracted to pay close attention to the kill feed.

 

 

Thanks for all the build suggestions!

 

Also, I love the fact that we get 2 engineers to sample different builds on.  Waste fewer rescpec cards this way.

I don't think so. The first drone will simply disappear.

No it doesn't, but it would make Drone spam a laugh though.

I always skip the drone and unlike Pearl and Alquinn (pansies) I take my HEngie into U/U/P with no fear.

Here's my build.

You can use the Saber, Hurricane, Lancer and a whole slew of other weapons with him. The CSMG works for me because the cool down is low enough for me to cycle the powers for fast combos.

 

That links to a 66644 build

0/6/6/6/6 Scorpion HE is awesome and so much fun to play.

Other than that I use the Arc pistol /talon

Dunno, I only know of one way to spec overload, and neither of them are it.

 

The builds are fine otherwise.

Why would you skip the drone? They have feelings, you know?

How would you spec it then? I rarely play kits with overload.

Anything that doesn't have Neural Shock and Shield Damage is wrong.

 

What you do at rank 4 depends on whether the power evo would mean the difference between stripping a particular enemy or not.

Chain overload/Neural shock/Shield damage

 

That's just me though.

6 suicidal-chain lightning drone

6 radius-DoT-armor incinerate

6 full chain-nerve overload

5 full power damage

3

 

Probably my number 1 favorite kit. Excellent against all faction. And he/she doesn't even have to shoot...

My bulid

You can use Incendiary ammo instead.

Drone - for CC, Phantoms, Primes.

Incinerate - for armour and reload cancel.

Overload - for CC, shields and reload cancel.  Also I rather have extra 7,5% more dps on my Venom, than  0,3 sec cooldown bonus on my Incinerate/Overload.

I skip the Drone (I don't play against the Geth, period) go full aoe on incinerate and Overload and invest all of the passive points into weapon damage bonus.
 
Claymore and you're good to go.


Drone can be a good detonator. And I wouldn't limit its uses against other factions, notably Cerberus.

Here, this is my Jerry-Ann Wyld. She's a combo CC maniack that can hold her own against any enemy.

Deploy the drone on selected target rather than just dropping it on the floor.
While the masses are engaged in getting it off their backs, you can either proceed to fill them with electricity or fire so by the time the drone pops, you get a nice 6/6 FE or TB.

If you want to make it even simpler, just use incindiary ammo.

With the build I've provided you can also take something like the Falcon or Adas to make it even easier with infantry. HE is so well equipped with powers that he really doesn't need that big a gun to be effective even vs bosses.

Trust me on the drone, once you 'get it', you'll never let it go.

Is it possible to chain tech burst into fire explosion if your CD is low enough?

Male HE: no drone, full fitness

Female HE: drone, no fitness

 

I use both builds depending on my mood (and lag). CSMG or Talon.

i always spec Incinerate and Overload the same way on my HEs - Radius, Burn and Armor Damage and Chain, Neural Shock, Shield damage.

 

Male HE is 66644 with Rocket Drone (Shock Drone is less useful on Plat, plus Overload and/or Incinerate make its CC purposes redundant). I use the Wraith with him.

Female HE is 066666 with Lancer.
