Do you guys have any Build for Infiltrator on Insanity?
I'm already using Energy Drain as bonus power... BTW i really like using Sniper Rifles, so any build with focus on Weapon DMG would be awesome.
Thx ![]()

Well, I have one (linked in my signature) ![]()
For Energy Drain and sniper rifles, try this
Energy Drain: Damage, Recharge Speed, Damage
Operative Mastery: Weapon Damage, Weight Capacity, Sniper Damage
Tactical Cloak: Damage, Recharge Speed, Bonus Power
Incinerate: Damage, Burning Damage, Armor Damage
You don't really need Sniper Damage at the last rank of tactical cloak because of the shield gate effect, better to use Energy Drain while cloaked and then headshot the enemy, you'll be able to one shot targets anyway with that setup.
Incinerate is for boss-type enemies like Brutes and Banshees.
For weapons I would've went with Mantis, even at rank 1 it's more than enough with Concentration Mod and Extended Barrel (I prefer upgrading the weapon and use Piercing Mod instead).
Another build:
Energy Drain: Damage, Recharge Speed, Damage
Operative Mastery: Weapon Damage, Weight Capacity, Sniper Damage
Sticky Grenade: Damage, Armor-Piercing, Damage
Disruptor Ammo: Damage, Headshots, Damage
For this I would suggest rapid fire sniper rifle like Raptor. This is a more soldier-like build. Sticky Grenades get bonuses from the ammo and can detonate tech bursts (all by themselves if I'm not mistaken). They act as excellent boss-killers.
Just to add to Vazgen's suggestions, you may want to add in Disruptor Ammo (specced for damage and headshots) for a one-shot sniper build. Use Squad Cryo Ammo to give your squad a little extra crowd-control (squad bonus - headshots - freeze chance/weakening).
If you avoid using cloak and still want a one-shot sniper build, then you need either:
- the Kishock (DLC) with Disruptor Ammo
- Energy Drain specced for damage with Disruptor Ammo, and use the Mantis
Of course, cloak makes everything easier since +90% damage (weapon and power damage and melee damage).
If you want something a little more tactical, I once did a behind enemy lines bomber infiltrator using proximity mines and grenades. I found cryo ammo to be more fun on that playthrough.
If you wanna focus on weapon damage, why don't you try Marksman?
That + TC + Black Widow / Saber can surely do insane amounts of damage, even more if you have in mind that Marksman instantly reloads the weapon when activated.

Only in multiplayer (that function was added in a patch). In single player, activating marksman does not automatically reload your weapon.
****in' nuggets!
I don't use Marksman myself, so I didn't knew D:

I'd have to check again, but I believe it also does in SP (since patch 4 or so). Wasn't that even the reason it is bugged for Ashley now?

No idea why Ashley is bugged. But activating Marksman does not instantly reload your weapon in single player. I just tried it out to re-confirm. I fired a few shots, then activated Marksman. The weapon did not instantly reload.
Thought I'd share my Bombfiltrator build I recently revisited for a couple of Missions. It was made from a my main Shep trilogy character, a level 30 import.
Cryo Ammo: Squad Bonus, Ammo Capacity and Damage Combo.
Tactical Cloak: Duration, Recharge Speed and Bonus Power.
Sticky Grenade: Damage, Max Grenades and Damage
Operational Mastery: Weapon Damage, Squad Bonus and Damage/Duration
Fitness: Durability, Shield Recharge and Fitness Expert
Proximity Mine: Damage, Damage Taken and Damage
Primary Weapon: Scorpion
Secondary Weapon: Hurricane
The tactics I used were pretty straightforward, positioning my squad at the front of a combat zone while I attempt to get as far behind the enemy lines as I can using Cloak. Then it's a case of choosing a target, shooting a Proxy Mine and lobbing a grenade before finally firing the Scorpion which uncloaks me. Then I'd rinse and repeat once the cloak has cooled down.
