Medic! - a gethgineer build.

You are in a silver/collectors/giant game with your friend. everyone else is dead. You are a demolisher, hit hard by the nerf bat, with no grenades, ammo, or anything. You turn the corner and oh shit! - possessed scion. As you turn and run, your friend shouts "Move, cyclops!" before you get grenaded to death. As you bleed out, the last thing on your mind is "Medic!"

Cool, huh?

Well, here's how you be one.

This utilizes a gethgineer. here's the build: http://narida.pytalhost.com/me3/classes/#23RAKPR%5E9%400EE%40%40%5B4W4%400%400

Wait, where's hunter mode?

oh fuck not you again. ED I TOLD YOU TO GO AWAY

This is Ed. say hi, Ed. Seriously, no hunter mode? shit you are dumb.

That's not nice Ed. But never mind. let's break down the build. The purpose of it is to medic, in a support role.

If you're medic-ing, why aren't you using a volus?

Cause I don't have one. RNG hates me.

Geth turret - obvious. YOu want to heal, and with those options, you can restore shields faster than the sun can melt ice cream in august. And a cool part is that it fires at enemies on the map, including Hunters. So if it's firing behind you, I'd turn around.

Hunter Mode - we're not taking this. It cuts our shields too much, and doesn't buff the shield regen on the turret.

Overload - helps corral enemies and destroy shields. With the neural shock option, you can stagger and stun enemies, making them "fall down". Since we're going for crowd control, we're taking all the "jump" options. A cool fact - if you use Overload on a regular enemy, say an assault trooper, if it jumps to a guardian, it will connect, and they will drop their shields. It also helps for setting off bursts, which will be discussed later.

Networked AI - obvious. Buffing power damage, and geth weapon damage, which helps with our gun. For the last choice, it's anyone's game, but I chose the weapons buff because the GSMG is pretty light.

Advanced hardware - obvious again. As you see, with it fully built for health and shields, you have more than 1000 shields. So if a buddy goes down, pop a turret over their body, go in and res them. But be careful!

Weapon - You'll want one. I went with the GSMG because you can get geth weapon bonuses, and because it's rapid fire which can prime enemies. See where I'm going with this? You prime with an ammo power, and your turret or overload can set them off, resulting in bursts galore. I went with high velocity barrel and heat sink, so that I don't need AP ammo, and I can have a light-weight chain gun.

Gear/equipment - I went with Stronghold gear to boost my shields and regen, but its your choice. If you have medi-gel transmitter, use it, so if you go down, your friends will come up with you. I'd also go with an SMG amp as well.

Tactics - run around, spam turrets. It has a really low cool down, like a second or so. Heal your friends. Res them. Destroy shields. Corral enemies. Have fun!

The only downside to the build is that you can't put birds into your friends chest cavities.

EDIT: Wow! thanks for all the great input guys! you really are the best subreddit ever.
