Message: <blockquote data-quote="Felon" data-source="post: 3909685" data-attributes="member: 8158">Rachni spit does seem to bypass shields...as does thresher maw spit!Tali, Garrus, and Wrex are all quantifiably better characters than any of the builds for Shepard. Garrus is basically an infiltrator who gets access to assault rifle training instead of sniper rifles. I shouldn't have to explain why that's a better deal, but if that's not good enough, he also receives the assault training skill too. Everything else an infiltrator can do, he can do.Tali's making out well too. She's an engineer that gets access to both pistols and shotguns. As far as I can tell, she sacrifices nothing. She starts out with few skill points invested in those weapons, so that should be remedied ASAP. Wrex is whatever the combat/biotics class is called (Sentinel?), but again they gave the NPC class assault rifle access while the PC can only get that as a soldier. Oh, and he gets health bonuses and regenerates hit points like a soldier. OH, and I almost forgot to mention heavy armor. He's pretty much a soldier with biotics on the side.I suppose it's wrong to have class envy over your NPC crewmates, but they really do come out ahead of the PC claasses. Then again, that's probably just the burn I feel for the infiltrator class.Having said all that though, I'm not sure I have seen the value of biotics. Throwing folks around and lifting them up in the air is a nice parlor trick, but it's not worth giving a character weaker armor and weaponry training.</blockquote>
