Which is the best class for Insanity?

Soldier. Immunity + Adrenaline Burst = invincibility.

Not related to the question, but oh god.

Small spaces + Singularity + High Explosive Sniper Rifle = amazing. Bodies were flying around everywhere.

It was a difficult delivery, now it's growing up mean and strong.

I'm loathe to say it, but yeah soldier.

That's just the easiest though. You can still have fun with Vanguard or Infiltrator on Insanity, as long as you import a fairly high level.

Nevermind.

But yeah, the Soldier is the best class in every game, if the most boring.

Infiltrator is the best in every game.

I say this mostly because I still haven't finished a Soldier playthrough.

Best is subjective. Soldiers certainly the easiest class, but there are a variety of factors that make something best.

I meant best as in most effective. The Soldier may be boring but he's the most powerful class thanks to Adrenaline Rush/Immunity and various powers that enhance weapons.

I finished my Insanity playthrough.

That was... mostly boring.

Also, oh my goddamn why won't thorian creepers just fucking die? That is the only time I have ever used grenades in actual combat.

I just lost all desire to play this game. I got up to Bring Down the Sky... and I can't bring myself to continue. I've loved this game up to this point....

Why? What about Bring Down the Sky made you not want to play?

Personally I thought that DLC was awesome.

It's like two bucks.

And besides, that's just, like, you're opinion man. I found it more fun than a lot of the ME 1 sidequests. Especially the end.

Conversely, Pinnacle Station, which has almost no plot, and is only really useful for the reward at the end, and grinding the "Use X Power 75 times" achievements costs $7

I mean... why?

^^^Considering that its essentially one extra empty mako section(with three identical interior(identical interior to main game repetitive buildings :P) building and one unique one with unique layout) though since its asteroid it at least has excuse for being empty. But yeah, I say its hurted by that it repeats same interiors from main game and isn't really outstanding, but it is cheap I guess so that explains why its like any other normal sidequest in the game.

And pinnacle station at least has multiple almost unique locations.

And the unique building was just a repurposed cut thing.

But I like Bring Down the Sky, and it's free on PC/PS3/certain 360 copies...

I dunno why. I practically loved the whole game. I got it onPC, so I realized "Hey, I get Bring Down the Sky for free, too! Let's not forget that!" I just can't motivate myself in my free time to play ME, as opposed to, say, Civ or TF 2. Hell, I'm tempted to start a file on ME 2 just to get a taste before finishing my ME 1 playthrough.

Finally finished Bring Down the Sky. Off to finish three or so more fetch-quests and then off to save the galaxy!

I am grinding out a Insanity Difficulty run. Bring Down the Sky mission is driving me nuts with the frigging turrets.

Yeah, seriously... I never use the Mako in combat. If I'm playing on anything below Hardcore, it's with a non-level 60 character so the experience is needed. If I'm on Hardcore or Insanity, I can't control the Mako well enough to not get hit by every other rocket.

Much easier to just get out and run in circles.

I can use the Mako well enough but with that many turrets it becomes a race against time to pop guns before they pop the mako.

I found I can pick off turrets with a focused barrage of Assault Rifle fire. However there are a few spots where that is a bit tricky to do. The final bunker for instance has a lot of turrets and the two moving turrets are a pain. Hacking a turret and letting it play zap the hostiles helps a lot.

I've heard this is the best game in the series. Is that true?
