Gary A Swaby of TheKoalition.com writes: I see a lot of people asking; Whats the best character class in Mass Effect 2? Or, What class should I use on Mass Effect 2? Whats The Easiest Class to use? Where can I get some class help? Well to all those asking the question, I am here to provide you with an answer. This is The Koalition's official character class guide, in which I will show off some of the pro's and con's of each class. Hopefully this will steer you in the right direction, helping you choose the right class for you.
However I would like to give a more upfront answer to these questions before we begin. In my opinion there is no best class, there is no easiest or most complicated class. Mass Effect 2 is a game that is all about choice and decisions, this is no different with the classes. Choose the class you think is best for you. For all you non decisive people out there, I hope this guide will help you make the final decision.
I will now list all the classes and provide a brief summary of what you get with each one, then go on to display some of the pro's and con's.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.

This is one of my favorite things about this game. It was so hard to choose what class to use. Which then adds even more replay value. I picked Vanguard but am thinking about going Infiltrator for my next play through.
