Which of these features did you pick once you maxed out Operative? Assassin is obviously a favorite due to the weapon increase, but I would like to know more about Agent. Agent reduces the cooldown of your powers; does this include cloak? Also, I think this feature favors those that like to abuse incinerate. Please provide some feedback!

6% additional cooldown reduction is just ~1/3 of a second on Incinerate, which doesn't really compare to the extra 15% power damage from Assassin. The 15% power duration doesn't really help you that much: Tactical Cloak is usually long enough even with Assassin's Cloak and the ammo powers last forever anyway (and who cares about the freeze time on Cryo Ammo... frozen stuff should die almost instantly). Incinerate seems to do most of its damage up front, so I don't think you'll get too much from having it last 15% longer.



Most of an Infiltrator's damage will come from weapons, so the extra 6% weapon damage is huge. The extra sniper slowdown is just icing.

Agent does make certain persuade-heavy situations easier. Plus, you can cloak through entire missions sometimes with good timing/luck, although that's more just for fun than anything else. Some have even reported it necessary to retaining team members' loyalty. I take it for that reason alone, and you can always respec after if you want to.

I took Agent partially for the bonus to Renegade and partially for RP status. I like to think of my Shep as an Agent not an Assassin.

Well yes, if you want to make it easier to access the Paragon/Renegade dialog options, you should of course go Agent. I was still able to keep all squad members loyal to me as a Renegade Assassin (started fresh, no import). I couldn't do the Renegade choice for Tali/Legion, but I told Legion to stop transmitting the data, and then turned around and told him I lied to Tali once she was out of the room and regained his loyalty.

I took Agent for the bonus to Renegade. (I was going to max out Paragon even if I took Assassin, but I like to be able to pull out Renegade dialog options when people are being really stupid sometimes.)
