The best additional skill for hardest difficulty in ME3 ?

[Janne Da Arc]

Hello! Thank you everyone who answered in a previous question!
I would like to ask if someone can reccomend any good additional skill for passing the hardest difficulty? I'm playing as Vanguard :)

Probably warp ammo. More power for your shotty and whatever other weapon you might use, and it synergises well with your other biotic abilities, and those of your teammates

[valium]

Vanguard has Incendiary Ammo, the single best ammo power.

The best bonus power for Vanguard would be Fortification/Barrier, Reave, or Dark Channel.

Don't listen to the garbage the randoms here are telling you. The best bonus power for Vanguard is Reave. It simply synergizes the best with the highly aggressive and power-spammy playstyle of Vanguard.

When searched for information in the internet, I also found that Reave is reccomended for Vanguard. I need to check it and test. Thank you for your advice!
I'm also have problems with defense or piercing enemy with their armor/shields/barriers, because they're indestractible against biotic abilities.

Biotic Detonations are not blocked by defenses as long as they are primed, they will unfortunately do reduced damage to shields though. Your weapon is an important tool to deal with defenses. Any power that has an upgrade where it says it will do more damage to armor/barrier/shields, take that, it is a multiplicative upgrade and will do more than you think it will.

If you're having trouble with enemies that have heavy armor or barriers, go for the "Barriers & Armor" Reave evolution at rank 6 for a whopping 75% bonus against them. Reave is great because you can evolve it to either offer you more survivability or to go all out on damage, depending on your needs.

How I can get Reave, is there any way to make it available?

You get Reave from Kaidan Alenko, it should unlock after you recruit and talk to him.

[valium]

You need Kaidan alive and recruited. Which is why I gave multiple options. Fortification/Barrier and Dark Channel will be available regardless of choices in previous games, and are arguably just as good.

I choosed Ashley in ME1. Kaidan is dead.

[Apollyon]

Lol. If you chose Ashley, you no longer get access to the best bonus power for Vanguard, unfortunately. You can go for the second best bonus power for the class, though, which is Energy Drain. You get it from Tali after inviting her to your quarters for a chat.

is there any good choice ?

[z00m]

If you are not satisfied with your bonus power, there is the med-bay where you can buy new powers to replace your current one unless you really want save on credits. Much like the previous users who replied here, I usually like to have reave as my bonus power especially if you or your squadmate have the warp ability.

[valium]

Without Reave, Dark Channel is just as good for similar uses, with some pros in cons in comparison. Unless it was changed for MELE, it should still jump targets if you detonated it.
