Mass Effect 3 Traditional 4 Gun Soldier Build

This build is for those who worry about recharge speed because they still want to use powers on a soldier. I personally don't like spamming concussive shot or compromising the use of power to carry decent guns so I made this build as a compromise. It allows you to carry strong guns and still have decent power usage.

I picked this mission because it is a good one for displaying the use of all weapons without forcing it too much. I cut out bits between fighting as nothing much was happening.

Gameplay is on PC but using a controller.

About the build:
CD's are still pretty low. you won't notice it much with bonus power as well. and you can get them lower with higher ultralight upgrade and weapon levels/weapon selection/bonus power/Armor Pieces based on your preference.

Getting guns to level X requires new game plus so until then, you may want to use lighter guns or take an SMG in place of one of the primary
weapons and pistol.

For normal enemies, reload cancels other than Adrenaline Rush will allow you faster kill times. I don't typically use them but for some weapons, you may choose to.

For bosses, just equip disrupter ammo to the lancer until it is down to armor and then equip incendiary for the explosions on a high rate of fire gun. That and fire explosions make them no issue.

You can eventually spec into Frag Grenades if you want another power that is not tied to a cooldown.

Bonus power: I took Defense matrix for the shield regeneration but Fortification is a great pick as well. Because of the power use evolution on Adrenaline rush, you may even opt for something like Flare.

Not sure why this doesn't have more views this is a great soldier build that really captures the feel of me2 soldier

The rank 6 concussive shot amplification combined with incendiary ammo with the partial beam rifle is awesome I destroy harvesters brutes and Atlas's real quick thanks to the fire explosion but instead of defense matrix I take armor-piercing ammo for my sidearm for the shield Cerberus guys.

Mass effect 2 Soldier is just better! Super OP than Mass Effect 3 Soldier.

valiant + wraith + lancer + paladin... and still got 100+ recharge time... wow !!! i got try this myself XD i think for most of us the pistol is just useless, an AR + SR/SG is really enough imo. anyway, nice build dude!

Greasy how do you equip 4 guns and still get over + 100% recharge speed? Ive been trying to do a similar 4 gun soldier build since starting my me3 play through but i cant figure out how to equip more than 3 guns without completely ruining my recharge speed. I got the one perk from combat mastery, i upgrade most of my guns to the highest rank so theyd be lighter and i put light material mods on all of them, but theyre only about rank 2 so i only get a 10% reduction in weight per gun. Do I just need to get better light material mods or is there another method you use to increase your carrying capacity?
