BaIthazar Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I'm planning on installing Mass Effect again for another trilogy run, but I can't think of a class to play.. my last 2 were as soldier, and I really like it, access to all weapons and stuff was nice. I want to try something different but having gotten used to being able to use all weapon types makes me hesitant to change it up.. question: if I went Infiltrator or vanguard and later chose the specialization with soldier thrown in do I get access to all weapons like soldier? if I went soldier and later chose the Shock Trooper specialization (soldier/vanguard) do I get access to biotic charge? (I've heard it's a broken and fun skill to use) please note, I'm thinking of choosing something other than Soldier, but I don't really dig the ideo of using nothing but pistols. so all the pistol only classes are out the window P.S. I asked this question in Warframe off topic forum because asking anywhere else would mean I had to make an account and stuff.. and besides, a guy asked "is a hamburger a sandwich" in this forum so I don't really see a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JefPlays Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 No on all counts. Specializations affect your abilities only, and Biotic Charge doesn't become a thing until ME2, and then only for Vanguards. If you must use other weapons with pistol-only classes in ME1, be sure to get the "weapon mastery" achievement for the relevant weapon type and choose the weapon type as a bonus talent when creating your character.

SMGs aren't a weapon class in ME1. It's just pistols, assault rifles, shotguns and snipers. (As an aside, I'm not sure I'd take assault rifles on a Vanguard anyway. Overlap too much with pistols, especially when Marksman comes into play.) 2. Correct, there are no weapon restrictions in ME3 though the weight of your carried weapons affects your cooldown times.
