Re: Andromeda Tank Play.

@Major_ShrekoningThere are multiple styles to play in Andromeda as the character profiles are easily swapped. You can play as a sentinel or as a soldier and just tank (which i do). With the class system done away with you can basically play however you want. Andromeda has a great rpg system that allows a lot of flexibility, and you can play as hybrids of the different classes if you want.

With no more set classes you can pick from any perks between soldier, tech and biotic so you have maximum flexibility. Any power you like is available so you can choose whatever suits you.

So yes, you can still play in this style and weapon and armor mods can further enhance it.

    But can I make it as tanky as I am used to? I dont know much about Andromeda and how they changed abilities, Fort + Tech armor was a 90% Damage reduction and I have mods that improve gameplay, so I actually had shields that had a 245% increase among the normal gear. EGM is amazing lmao.

    @Major_ShrekoningHonestly don't know tbh, I primarily use offensive powers and use assault and sniper rifles and never really like shotguns in the ME series. There are defensive abilities for defense and there are weapon mods that will help you tank with a shotgun.

    There's a gamepedia page that lists all the weapons, mods and abilities you can check out.
