Hunter mode is good, I just prefer to roll a run and gun build: HERE

 

Flamer Turret and overload are perfect together.

For Overload, I prefer more damage in the first evolution, simply because if you're stripping barriers and shields, you need to do it fast.

Cryo ammo to complement your overload on unshielded mobs, and flamer if and when, you need to pierce armor (and overload again).

Lancer, because is a very light weapon with decent recoil.

Basically an hybrid build, able to perform either in assault mode, or bunker down, and let the turret heal you (or your team)

 

I've found rarely situations where this build didn't work, or was disappointing (score wise too).

Most effective? Probably use the Wraith, Talon, or Hurricane. Wraith seems to work the best for me. EDIT: in retrospect, it seems kind of weird that I have never tried the Raider or Piranha on the GE. Based on my GI experience, I feel like I would love both of them.

Most fun? I like the Valkyrie or Saber.

Also, Flamer Turret for life for me. One-cast fire explosions, and the Flamer Turret seems to be much better at distracting enemies than if you don't have Flamer.

Raider and piranha are both fun until you get Cerberus on condor or another large open map.

Running the GE without HM is actually a pretty interesting result. Since my favorite weapon for him is the GPS I don't miss the ROF/Accuracy bonus like I would if I decided to run a Wraith,Talon,Hurricane etc. HM is great (that goes without saying) but trying something new on him can be fun. That's a big reason why I've always acknowledged him as one of Bioware's best kit creations. Any build on him can/will be great. I've seen so many different builds for him from friends and BSN and I can't really say any of them are "wrong".

I've been trying to spread the Gospel on him for years

This is true. You must Raider though; I know you're a Wraith man and I don't knock it. But pls try it.

These concerns are neutralized by Adrenaline Module, healing turret and Chain Overload.

you think the smart choke and Hunter mode is not accurate enough?

I will try the Raider...and...you're using a TURRET? iirc, that was something you just didn't do back in the day :) Awesome, Clyde.

The turret is fun to use. Too bad we can't spawn 373625 of them at once like Geth Primes.

I wouldn't put more than 3 or 4 in Turret honestly.

 

HM is one of the better places to invest points in the game.  Networked AI is ok.  Advanced Hardware gives shield regen bonuses before rank 5, which makes it better than many versions of fitness.

I'm having good results with this build: http://kalence.drupa...43251364!FAAG.9

 

It's ultra squishy but the turret saves me most of the time I get into trouble. Basically I RHA the entire game and headshot everything while spamming Overload. Very easy to play and you get to explode something every few seconds.

lol you remember right, I used to skip turrets, decoy and drones, but no more. Let this serve as proof that everyone can change ;)

My fave build I ended up settling on for the most part is no fitness/heal turret weapons platform.

 

What weapons? Whatever I feel like.

 

 

The only thing making me think that I may want some fitness is the idea of playing him with Adren Mod3's on top of Hunter Mode speed. Only I have to many kits out there that love Adren Mod 3's. Including the Jug, along with Fury and friends.

I guess I must be the only one who actively enjoys using the GPSMG on him.  I've scored 2 million points with it, and around 1.95 mill of those were with the GE. Perhaps too slow for the OP, and undoubtedly less effective than many of the suggestions here, but he is one of the only characters in the game who can make genuinely good use of that particular gun, and it's fun. GPR works well (possibly even better) as an alternative.

 

I only have 3 points in the turret, and sometimes run him with Shield Power Cells and Stronghold package, which gives around a 1.3 sec shield-recharge rate.  I'd like a build with full points in the turret, but skipping health on a Geth goes against the grain with me because of the 'free' shield recharge speed boost.

The GPSMG has a critical flaw: It needs to ramp up.

 

I use the GPR with HV barrel and thermal scope to accurately see through smoke (Hunter Mode does that too but not at the range I prefer to be when sniping), so against Cerberus I would have to go too close for comfort with a GPSMG.

To be fair, it's irritating, but far from critical.  Mooks cannot survive sprayed Incendiary Ammo + Chain Overload, and the only enemies where the ramp up is actually necessary are slow enough to make it a non-issue (for me).  That said, I completely agree with you about how well the GPR works, and I did acknowledge that it's probably better overall.

I highly recommend you take the chain evo at rank 4 and switch to the double damage against shields evo at rank 6.

I've fallen in love with GE since the first time I tried using him. That said, my GE has been using Mantis ever since I saw this video:

 

 

It's been a prompt that started me using GE and by god, loved it ever since. My first 200 waves with this guy have been done using nothing but Mantis. Ok, to be fair, a good portion of them have been Silver waves, but Mantis is totally viable with him on Gold. That's actually how I met my good buddy Rane :D Me as Mantis GE, him as QFE and two juggies. Lets just say poor bastards didn't have much to kill.

 

I also imagine Rane's little quarian was a little confused, since she had three geth on her side and all the rest of them trying to kill her :P

 

I think, when I get back home, I'll try him with GPR... seems like he might actually be a good match for what I otherwise consider a pretty shitty weapon.

My build, uses incendiary ammo, although sometimes I use the Indra with him.

I find incendiary ammo much more reliable than the flame turret for explosions. The turret does its function with just three ranks for me.

And I'm obsessed with shields for some reason.

Overall my favorite geth is the soldier though. I just friggin love damage reduction.

He is the only character I will give the GPSMG to

 

I go back & forth on builds with him..Sometimes flamer turret..sometimes no turret....

 

I have never used a sniper rifle on him before...I think most times I go with an SMG or a shotgun..but then again I havent used him in awhile.....right now I have the geth pulse rifle on him..makes it useful ..Overload...shoot water gun

I play this kit only sometimes when I'm not being a turian.

 

Build I use on him varies depending on what I'm up against or what I'm doing, but if it's just UUG I use him with the GPR. Bullet spam and disruptor rounds, being the bane of every biotic team because I'll inevitably drop into a BE squad GIP when I play this setup, #JustGethEngineerThings. I rarely go past 3 or 4 in turret and always max huntermode. 

 

It's not exactly a boss killer, though. 

 

I also give him all yellow paint and a black flashlight on his head and call him Banana
