's nice. Always figured everyone on the ship were writing final letters to their loved ones. I like to think that Samara wrote a letter to her two remaining daughters.

Does anyone think there is any Samara Related topic we haven't gone over? Things have been lethargic around here.

Until Bioware releases any new information about the character, the Justicars, or the asari, I think we've reached a point where all we're doing is speculating on what Samara's life has been and could be. Which is a critical point for any character support thread because then you have to figure out what to do with it for the next couple of years and some threads go downhill fast at that point.

I've been doing a lot of suicide mission variations lately. I confirmed that Garrus does die before Samara while holding the line, but he has a higher defense score than her. Jack, however, dies much sooner than Samara. So while they might be comparable biotics, it would appear that Samara's skills as a soldier do trump Jack's.

Also, been thinking the assault rifle is a curious choice for Samara. Makes her a particularly resilient biotic in a fight.

Assault Rifle was a good choice IMO, shows that she is a warrior and not just a civilian with Biotics like Liara in ME 1.

I agree.   If weapon proficiency is any indicator, Samara being able to use assault rifles shows that she has training with many types of weapons, either through Justicar training, or 400 years of combat experience. 

Then again, Jacob, a trained Alliance soldier, has somehow forgotten how to use assault rifles in ME2.

Who needs an Assault Rifles when you have the M-22 Priiizzeee Cannon?

Hey there. I'm new to the forums, and I decided to pop over here from the Jack thread and get in on the Samara-fandom, seeing as she and Thane are my other favorite characters in ME. What's going on in here? I mean, besides Johnny's toothpaste.

Morinth was 1000% more useful than Samara imho. Imagine Infiltrator Shep with Dominate partnered up with Samara and Miranda. You pretty much win at life. Miri's abilities burn through shields/barriers while Shep can drop armor with the Rev. After that, Dominate everything and congratulations, you just broke the game.

Sadly... the forums have slowed down a lot in the last month or so. We've also exausted much of the debates about Samara. Now we just rehash old information and such...

That is great... here is where you should post that.  It's the Morinth thread.

Well... the glory days were simply us being confused about Asari genetics.... we came to the conclusion that we didn't have enough information to come to a conclusion about it.

At the risk of sounding crude, aren't Asari genetics an excuse to create a race of sexy blue women who are availible to anyone ever?



BTW, your sig is a Futurama reference, isn't it? *High five*

I was the person who originally started referencing Morinth with Snu Snu.... it's nice that everyone uses it when talking about Morinth now.  Though... I didn't make the Sig.

The forum has gradually slowed down over the last couple of months.  Most members have played the game several times over at least.  Almost every topic one could think of, has been discussed and debated to death on the forum.  It will probably pick up a little bit whenever Overloard is released, but that will only last for a little while I imagine.  The material is exhausted.  People are moving on to other games, and the initial excitement is over.  The Samara thread was never one of the larger character threads to begin with either.

Would it help traffic if I linked to a very immature drawing of Samara I made?
