Asari Huntress Infiltrator: The Biotic Commando

So, my first build suggestion here on MECoOp. Tell me if I screwed up something. Basically instead of being oriented around weapons, she's an infiltrator oriented around powers.

4/6/6/6/4

Tac Cloak- Duration or damage both have their benefits. I prefer damage for the benefit for DC.

DC- Damage, Slow, Damage. Duration on the first evo gives you more overall damage, but in 30 seconds any enemy is basically dead anyway. I prefer damage on the 6th evo as I use DC on mooks, and warp on bosses.

Warp- Detonate, Expose, Pierce. Classic warp evos. Pretty self-explanatory.

Asari Huntress- Damage/capacity, power damage, weapon damage. Like I said, I focus on power damage with this kit. I do like a heavier weapon her though, so skip the evo on pistol weight.

Fitness- Durability.

Weapons: Any hard-hitting shotgun or AR of your choice. Equip with Warp III or IV ammo. I've run her with the Claymore, Graal and PPR, all have worked fine on Gold and Plat. If you feel comfortably getting up close and personal, the Reegar is a fine choice too.

Gear/Consumables: Power Amp, War Amp. Boost your power damage.

Playstyle: Like I said, she's all about powers. Her TC gives her a big power boost which stays active even after TC wears off. Warp doesn't do that much damage, but DC is really good. So you want to cloak, cast DC on a mook and either shoot, or follow up with a warp for an explosion if the mook is in a group. If a boss, then I prefer Warp first (they can't dodge) for the expose/pierce effect. Why warp ammo? Warp ammo gives a huge damage bonus (+120% with Warp IV) to biotically primed targets. Hence I don't actually love BEs on her that much, instead preferring to prime and shoot with a hard hitting gun. Just keep casting DC and Warp, cloak gives you a way to drop aggro and be mobile and boosts your power set. If you really want to cheese, switch to incendiary ammo. A cloaked DC will kill a gold phantom by itself, so you can even use it as a fire-and-forget kind of power. Alternatively, you can use it to constantly set off BEs as every time the enemy its on dies, it will jump and prime another enemy nearby.

Finally, an infiltrator that synergises well with a team of biotics. I had an awesome gold PUG the other day with 2xHuntress, a Justicar and an AA. BEs. BEs everywhere. Was glorious.
