Vanguards mix biotic skills with the deadly efficiency of a shotgun, able to charge into battle and quickly eliminate targets, but this does not mean you are invincible! Using these tips you will make the collectors wish they didn't space you two years ago!

combat

1. your shotgun= your friend. most classes use the shotgun as a back up to keep those pesky Varren from gnawing of your leg, but as a vanguard the shotgun is your go to choice of pain-bringing! Space that usually hinders the effectiveness of the shotgun is negated by the powerful biotic charge that sends enemies flying like a Clay Pigeon!
2. CHARGE, but charge effectively Although your charge may be powerful it can and WILL get you into trouble if used incorrectly!
3. NEVER charge into a group of more than two people as exiting the charge leaves you vulnerable! -When you charge on unshielded opponents they will go flying, this is very effective on larger opponents or leader enemies sitting on the edge of walkways and drops that are fatal. -Use your other abilities the vanguard is not only a charging bull, he/she also has shockwave and pull! these moves can pick up(pull) or even send them flying(shockwave)! These moves can even be combined with your charge or with your squad mates powers; one way say you're fighting a Krogan Battlemaster knock down his shields, pull him, then charge!

armor selection

choosing your load out should be based off of two things: ammo and speed. -ammo shotguns carry very little ammo so any items that can boost it could mean life and restarting your last check point! -speed storm speed is essential as when you enter charge you have to plan on where you are going to run to take cover on the pending counter attack the enemy will do, unless they are all dead!

To summarize -Keep close! -Use your powers! -Think before you charge -USE THAT SHOTGUN!
