I find myself bringing Mordin along with Samara alot of the time, killer against organic enemies. *usually plays Soldier*

Maybe so, I'm much too caring so I want to "help" people in some way/shape/form. Yes, burdens can be carried alone, but eventually they get to be too much and that's when most people just snap.


I bring Samara along just for her commentary.

I usually bring Samara and Thane... especially usefull on Insanity difficulty.  I play Adepts and Vanguards (Biotics FTW).

I haven't even played hardly in the last 2 or 3 weeks. I played the firewalker DLC and haven't even finished it yet.

When I brought squadmates with me, it depended on the mission. Some missions Mordin and Zaeed are one hell of deadly combo with my engineer. I just burn the hell out of everything. I always have brought Miranda and Garrus with me to Haestrom and either one of those two with me to Tali's loyalty quest.

edit:  Have not brought Samara with me alot in the past, but that will change when I start playing again.  She seems to get killed a little easy sometimes that I have noticed anyway.

Only Organics: Samara and Mordin
Organics and Synthetics: Samara and Garrus
Only Synthetics: Samara (just f*cking because) and Garrus

I've noticed that as well, but I still always bring her with me when I can ^^;;

However, always bring Garrus on Tali's loyalty mission, just fits better :3

#1. Samara, of course.  Reave is the all-purpose anti-everything.
#2. Miranda/Jack/Grunt

I've noticed that Samara's A.I. tends to get a little careless with cover, as well, though she's nowhere near as bad as Hey-I'll-just-stand-on-TOP-of-this-box-in-the-middle-of-our-fire-fight-with-that-YMIR-Mech Garrus.

At rank 4, do you guys go Sapiens Justicar or Caedo Justicar? I personally go with the former, having her fully realize her biotic potential.

The ME3 story will be alluring that is for sure. I hope so anyway. Cerberus may not even play an integral role in ME3. I would like Shep to be involved in something original though. First it was the Alliance and the Spectres and then it was Cerberus. Although it is a weird twist being resurrected by Cerberus and working with them, it was awkward at the same time. I hope that Shep's association with another organization or entity will be different and maybe even unconventional like it was with Cerberus.

I hear ya. I personally think that the table is kinda set, though. We first heard of Cerberus back in ME1 and we have not heard of any new organisation in ME2 (aside from the Justicar order and I don't think Shep would be invited...). It feel rather like the chess board is now set up, with all the pieces in position for the endgame. Bioware's got us where they wanted: drooling in anticipation of ME3 to see how everything will resolve itself. Clever buggers! Posted Image

Wether my Shepard decided to return to Spectre status or told the Council to shove it is probably going to be irrelevant in the grand scheme of things and thats alright. To me, it's just a role-playing decision. We can probably hasard a guess at the rough outline of ME3 by analysing the challenges facing Shepard:
 
1) Convincing Council races of the Reaper threat (Turians, Asari, Salarians and Humans); or winning back the confidence of alien Council races following the death of the Councillors.
2) Convincing Quarians and Geth not to go to war or persuading survivor species to join the fight
3) Convincing Wrex/Warlord to contribute Krogans to the fight even if that set back his plans for Krogan revival
4) Convince the Terminus systems and other non-council species that war preps are not preparation for an invasion of their space
5) Figure out how the Reapers will next try to return and make sure they fail.

Plenty of work to keep the crew busy... plenty of Reaper daddy bags to kick... Posted Image

The former. Cutting down on the cooldown time of her Reave or Throw can be helpful in a sticky situation, especially in an Insanity playthrough.

Power Cooldown is always a must for me.

Jack is good against husks at the derelect reaper with her shockwave I found out.  I brought Samara and Thane with me on the derelect reaper and that worked fairly well too.  I just used their throw on the husks.  Samarah's recharge is pretty good once you max out Justicar with Sapiens.  Grunt is pretty good.  I guess whenever he has the shotgun instead of the ar, his ai is to get in closer and he will get in a little trouble sometimes.  His ai does come in handy sometimes though with charge and an in your face style.  With warp and overload Miranda is very versatile.

With that said, you give me Mordin and Zaeed against organics with my Engineer and Reave and I can do some serious burning action.:o

...and what about squdmate interaction. Did you notice a particular squadmate interacting more with Samara than the others? Some exchange that had you laughing, or simply go "Wow..."?

I've done Sapiens 6 times out of 6 playthroughs.

One of the finer pleasures in the game is to choose the reave as a special ability, and bring Samara and Miranda when dealing with organics:

Double reave and high-powered warp. Then just sit back and watch their life gauge dwindle as they writhe in pain.

Joy   :)

I always go for Sapiens with the faster regeneration of her powers.

Yeah, I have a lot of ass kissing to do with the new Alien Council, damn Udina blaming me for the destruction of the Ascension.

On the Topic of Parties:

Personal Shepard (Paragade): Jacob, Tali, Samara (Switch between the three because I like them all way to much)

Paragon Femshep: Jacob, Samara

Renegade Shepard: Jacob, Miranda

 I can't remember any particular line that stood out to me, but I wish she'd have some reactions to things Shepard did. First thing that comes to mind is... ahem..."KROGAN HEADBUTT!" Seriously.

Anyway, first thing I remember is her reaction to Legion on his loyalty mission; "They have the right to make their own decisions, yet you suggest brainwashing them to accept your ways?"

I know other squaddies have basically the same reaction, but her's carries more weight...

This is what I've always pictured ME3 to be. I do hope that your squad mates and perhaps even their loyality comes into play in terms of how effective you are at uniting the races. I could just imagine an epic speech by the Justicar to talk some sense into the Asari.

That would be Miranda for me... but Jacob even more.  On Jacob's loyalty mission on my NG+ Insanity playthrough Jacob never made it through a fight.  It was me and Miranda.

There was couple of threads about that I think.  I can't really remember though.  Morinth, I hear speaks in her own voice a couple of times on Tuchanka I think.  Grunt usually is kinda funny.  Garrus and Tali will interact going up/down the stairs on the Citadel. 

I may do a little searching perhaps later, because I remember a thread about that and there was quite a bit of info in it.

Bring Garrus/Jacob/Tali and Samara to the derelict reaper.  When you do the interact prompt with Garrus/Jacob/Tali at the husk spikes... I like her response when you finish with the Paragon choice.

What do you usually do with Jacob's father?

Grunt calls Morinth an "Asari ****" if he is with you when you do the dialogue prompt for Morinth.

I still giggle sometimes whenever I use Reave, Area Reave in particular.  You hit three mercs with it and they all three go through their routine in concert.

Ha ha ha ha......:lol:
