I usually use either:
N7 Shadow or N7 Fury Eagle Pistol Stronghold whatever it's called.
I generally don't pay much attention to my mods or gear, aside from making sure I have enough Cobra Missile Launchers and Med-Gels... I really just love using the N7 Shadow and her Electric Slash and the Shadow Strike powers... and the N7 Fury and the Dark Channel...

I like to change it up so it stays fresh. Also knowing how to play multiple classes makes it easier to fill a party role in Gold and Plat matches.
Favored adept class. Fury with a Acolyte pistol for shield drain and Hurricane for backup Damage and ammo for acolyte and Ammo and piercing on the Hurricane
Soldier, I really can't choose there. I like the Krogan, Vorcha and Destroyer almost equally. My weapon loadouts there are greatly different. Krogan goes with Claymore High velocity barrel and omni-blade.
Vorcha is a power based build using either a Carbine or an acolyte for shield stripping and flamer/carnage for main damage.
Destroyer gets a piranha shotgun for close work and either a typhoon or striker depending on the map. piercing and damage for both.
Sentinel, i love this multiplayer class too much to go into all my loadouts here. I use the Vorcha, Paladin, Krogan and Turian. they are all all awesome and have too many options to list.
I suck at infiltrators in multiplayer so i don't have a favorite here.
Geth engineer is my favorite kit right now in that class. That might change when I see what the Talon is all about. I use a Hurricane and Disciple for that class and use Overload for crowd control. Piercing and damage
torn between Kroguard and Cabal for favorite in Vanguard. Use a Wraith for the Kroguard, piercing and melee blade. Use a Harrier for the Cabal and hit and run tactics. Piercing and damage.
Favorite gear is stronghold shield mod, cryo for ammo on power classes, incendiary for vanguards, Cyclonic modulator or power amp, appropriate rail amp for most classes, strength enhancer for krogan.

Let see I use stuff from every class. So by class here’s my Top picks. Adept
Krogan with Collector Rifle and Geth SMG. I use shockwave a lot, it’s great while barrier is on with its power damage and force bonus. I set warp to level 3, maxed out barrier, and almost maxed out Shockwave. Like this I can use biotic explosions on bigger enemies mix it with fire explosions if I add Incendiary ammo. The rifle has extended ammo and damage. Geth SMG has light materials and damage. I didn’t feel the need to have any melee damage stuff to my guns. If I’m close and the enemy survives my heavy melee well I just follow up with shockwave. This guy is great at close at mid-range and decent at long range thanks to warp.
Soldier Geth Juggernaut is at the top as of late. Gave him my all-time Favorite gun the Geth Plasma Shot Gun, and a Geth smg. The shotgun has extended clip and accuracy, the smg has light materials and power damage bonus. I only use two out of three of three attack powers, the torrent and siege pulse. I tend to do the two powers thing when I feel I have no need for the third and want the best of the two I will actually use.
N7 Destroyer with a Typhon assault rifle and Geth Shotgun. I did not level up the missile at all so weight is no longer an issue. The Typhon has extended clip and extra damage on it. The Geth Shotgun has extended clip and accuracy on it. The Typhon is twice has nasty while shooting from cover that’s a good thing to remember. The devastator mode really buffs the Geth shotgun really well. I guess it’s the damage accuracy bonuses or something. I set the grenades to fire more at once, this really makes them nasty especially if you aim at the floor your opponent is standing over. I didn’t add the extra grenades since there’s no point, sure you’ll start with more but once you use them up you won’t get the full amount right away. Unless you plan to waste a spare clip. There are kits that give you more grenades you’re better off making them stronger instead. His heavy melee is pretty good but its best as a defensive move, his light melee is to slow, has crappy range and the damage is piss has well. Best to abandon that move . I use him has a purely ranged character which is exactly what he’s made for.
Batarian with a Mattock Assault rifle and Geth SMG. The rifle has extended clip and damage, the smg has light material and damage. Two power system Blade Armor and Ballistic Blades. I abuse Ballistic Blades, I set them for explosion damage instead of bleed out. This guy can lean when he wants to thanks’ to the blades and armor. Or use the blades defensively since it can hit three people at a time. I can use the blades to also set up for melee attacks which is great. The fact that the blade armor hurts enemies when they melee you is great. The melee damage bonus is nice to. I love making heads explode with my Rider Punch.
Turian Havoc with Geth Shotgun. Shotgun has extended clip and melee blade. Two power system Havoc Strike and Stimulator Pack. Havoc Strikes with heavy melee follow ups is fun has all hell. The Stimulator packs keep me in the fight when things get dicey. The Geth Shotgun takes care of all my ranged needs be it from close mid or far. For some reason this guy has weight issues so I’m forced to carry one gun.
Engineer
Quarian Female with Geth Shotgun and Locust SMG. The Shotgun has extended clip and accuracy a bonus. Two Power systems Sentry Torrent and Incinerate. I remember it took so long to get her unlocked and after the demo I wanted her back badly. She is one of those characters that stand the test of time. I once got put in a Gold match with her when I wanted bronze, despite having no equipment on me at all I was still able to clear it and extract. The torrent is great, throw it behind groups of enemies and your suddenly kicking ass on both sides. I gave it rockets so range is no issue. It also tends to show me where hidden enemies are since it will fire rockets at them no matter where they are. I like to spam incinerate on big enemies mixing it up with shotgun blasts. It’s also a nice way to finish grunts faster when you’re using a smg. I don’t think they’ve nurffed her with any of the updates. If they have I haven’t noticed it.
Salarian with Paladin handgun and Locust smg. Paladin has extended clip and damage, Locust has light materials and damage. Two power system Shield Drain and Incinerate. Having a high recharge rate thanks to my gun layout, its powers galore with nasty Paladin follow ups or vice versa. Decoy has been grounded down to shit in several updates so it really isn’t worth it to me. I noticed I wasn’t using it at all and when I did enemy’s just ignored it. So I got rid of the move and he’s better off without it.
Standard human with Mattock assault rifle and Geth smg. The rifle has extended clip and damage, the smg has light materials and damage. You really can’t underestimate this guy his pretty damn good. The drone is great and both incinerate and overload are good at weakening enemies. Since I my recharge rate is high I can really lay it on.
Sentinel
Krogan Mother fucking Warlord! Packing a Geth Shotgun and Geth SMG. The Shotgun has extended clip with melee blade, the smg has light materials and damage. Two powers system Tech Armor and Biotic Hammer. This guy is nasty to say the least. The hammer is the shit with the Biotics added in and the tech armor melee bonus’s well. If that’s not enough is life regenerates on top of that. Rage mode triggers after the first hit. I also put the ability where if you kill and enemy you get even more damage on the next one. Normally I wouldn’t select that since I worry about defensive type stuff a lot. However with this guy it’s all in. What about the instant kill enemies like the phantoms? Well for them hello Geth Shotgun, one touch of this and she’s stunned you can follow up with a Hammer smash or just keep shooting. Banshees well Geth Shotgun and some running; wait till her biotic aura drops then hammer smash. Brutes use Geth shotgun to weaken him then follower up with hammer smash, you can hammer smash him while he does that charging swing at you, In some cases the brute will miss you completely and you’ll Hammer smash his back. Praetorians well just shoot and leave it at that, if you have to us the hammer DO NOT have the powers on it just go raw. Why because if its barrier goes up your attack will do zero damage and you’ll be dead soon after. Ok so Scions I mainly shot them and them hammer smash. If it gets possessed then just shooting and Hammer Smash only if I know it will get the kill.
N7 Paladin with Geth Shotgun and Geth smg. The shotgun has extended clip and melee blade, smg has light materials and Damage. Two power system energy drain and snap freeze. I do abuse my snap freeze since it hit’s multiple enemies and goes through cover. You can do cryo explosions with you team mates or do it yourself with energy drain. It’s also a good set up for melee or shots. If I put the shield up I can always roll out of it or cancel it with one of my powers. I think the shields health resets ever time is put up, so if I think it will crack I can always cancel it and put it up again.
Turian with Geth Shotgun and Geth smg. The Shotgun has extended clip and a melee blade. This guy was the first character I beat Gold with. He was my original main from back in the demo and in the games early days. He’s good at weakening enemies and setting up biotic explosions with other players. His heavy melee is decent, I tend to hit enemies with overload or warp before I do it. Granted he can’t roll but he has a natural stability bonus for his weapons (at least that’s what I’ve heard all Turians have). His shields are high and of course theirs the buffs tech armor gives you. He’s a pretty solid character not as good has the N7 Paladin or Krogan Warlord, but still one of the better sentinals.
Infiltrator
Geth with Krysae Sniper Rifle and Geth SMG. The rifle has extended clip and damage, the smg has light materials and damage. Two power system Tactical Cloak and Hunter mode. It’s all about the Kraysae it’s a hell of gun and the only sniper rifle I use. You can pretty much throw perfect aim out the window. You don’t have to worry much if you’re attacked at close range, even by multiple opponents. Some would say “oh but you can’t do the mail slot thing against guardians”, well I don’t need it. If you shoot at the corners of them the explosion will hit them anyway. Adding in the buffs from hunter mode and the cloak makes the gun even meaner. He’s great against pretty much everything and at any range.
Alliance Infiltrator unit with a Collector assualt rifle and Geth smg. The rifle has omniblade and damage, the smg has light materials and damage. Two power system Snap Freeze and Repair Matrix. I got her set has a straight up melee character. She just has too much aggressive close range stuff for me to even think of bothering with the cloak. Snap freeze sets up for melee or close range shots. The Repair Matrix gives her fast recharging shields, melee damage bonuses, she can auto revive when the thing is on, what’s that she gets more buffs when she gets back up. Her evasion rolls are fast and cover distances quickly creating several hit and run options. Her melee is quick and has nice combos to it. You can do heavy melee and follow up with light melee combos easily. She is really fun to use and is really affective has a mid to close range character.
Vanguard
N7 Slayer with Mattock assault rifle and Geth smg. The rifle has an omniblade and damage. Two Power system Biotic Charge and Biotic Slash. Oh Biotic Slash you are so awesome. You can bypass cover and hit multiple enemies. Your attack powers good to. Biotic Charge is a vanguard’s bread and butter. Anybody who’s used this class already knows what it can do. His melee is great and fun to use it can also link with both powers really well. He can teleport threw walls with his evasions or heavy melee. Even if you’re forced to stop using melee, the options Biotic Slash gives you makes up for it in spades. Really the only bad thing I can say about him is his shield’s and life even though are of the average amount somehow seem less than that. I go for all the shield and life buffs but he still feels slightly below average in this regard. Of course with Biotic charge it’s not a deal breaker but you will need to be careful sometimes against multiple opponents. At close range against multiples best to charge instead of doing a biotic slash. The biotic slash works best behind cover or from a distance. You can use it at close range just be mindful of what’s around you when you do it.
EX Cerberus with Mattock assault rifle and Geth smg. The rifle has extended clip and damage, the smg has light materials and damage. Two power system Biotic Charge and Biotic Smash. The whips are your friend’s. Whither you’re using heavy melee or using Biotic Smash the whips are what make this guy. Biotic smash can bypass cover and hurts. Heavy melee is a radial attack that can knock down or knock back enemies. This makes surviving after Biotic charging into a group of enemies easier. Heavy melee can also be linked with both powers pretty easily. Also you can aim Biotics smash at upward and downward angles easily. You can rain down from above or hit guys from below, the move bypass’s cover so it’s very useful. There are two bad points to this guy, Biotic smash’s range has been dialed down in the updates. It’s still a good move but now it’s harder to make the best of it without being at close ranges. It’s okay at midrange but you damn near need to be almost at close range for it to hit. Secondly the light melee move is shit, it’s really slow and has a shitty recover time. The damage is no big deal and its best to abandon this move completely.
Krogan Battlemaster with Geth Shotgun and Geth SMG. The Shotgun has extended clip and melee blade, the SMG has light materials and damage. Two power system Biotic Charge and Biotic Barrier. I keep him simple with Biotic Charges to heavy melee follow ups.His biotic charge hurts like hell. I put the damage and force bonus on my barrier and put the 30 percent off the recharge penalty. I do this with Biotic barrier all the time. Well thanks to the Geth shotgun he’s great at all ranges. The rage mode triggers in to hits instead of three so I can get those buff’s more often.

You might have given me some ideas Shaider but I just wanted to mention that the Destroyers Hawk missiles are unaffected by weight for their fire rate. It's only their activation that is slowed. I hated them at first but the damn things are a beast for making things duck and take cover. I have gone through stretches where those things were making as many kills as I was. Loss of grenade power is problematic but I feel that character really shines when the enemy is keeping their heads down from those auto firing rockets!

Loss of grenade power is problematic but I feel that character really shines when the enemy is keeping their heads down from those auto firing rockets! Yeah when I first had him I tried a mixed build it was ok but I didn't feel I was getting the most out of him. I wasn't willing to put to many points in the Hawk missile. Judging by my habit's I leaned more towards the grenades. So I changed him to the build I have now. I swear the grenades are my panic button if I'm going to fall and the enemies closing in, I shoot those suckers towards the ground and watch enemies fall. On a different note I changed my Krogan Solider to complete a weakly challenge. I took Carnage out and buffed the inferno grenades. The inferno grenades seem kind of weak to me. I didn’t think much of them in the past and I guess that hasn’t changed. I’m going to put him back to the way he was using an N7 Crusader shotgun in tandem with Carnage. I also gave my Turian Solider a Phaeston Assault Rifle to complete two of the Commando challenges. This combo has worked well and is the reason I actually started using him again. Being able to constantly use Marksmen really makes the gun nasty. Granted its no Typhoon but for guys like him who only have timed modes its great. Its light and really benefits from the rate of fire boost from marksmen. I put an extended clip and damage on the Phaeston. I also have the Geth SMG with my usual stuff on it. If I need penetration boost I just put armor piecing or Drill rounds on. I maxed out concussion shot to use mostly for defensive means. If enemies are getting to close and start to pile up I mix in concussion shot with Rifle shots, I back up while doing that so I can get way and interrupt their offence constantly. If their are to many big enemies I just rely on marksmen has I try to back off.
