Resumed from >>3938636 which is capped (other thread another anon made failed from to not link back to the previous one).Tierlist is based off of legendary edition, not vanilla hence why Javik is so high. I opted for mods also hence why Miranda is that high. Tierlist link: https://tiermaker.com/create/mass-effect-squadmatesAlso for an actual topic to start off, Expanse and Exodus are going to be let downs, no actual alien companions are to be found and world building seems to be shit. None of them have more than one(or not even one) bangable female companion so Maas Effect 4 is all we can hope for. From last N7 day's teasers, looks like Cerberus surviving and making relays as well as Krogan having a civil war are gonna be the theme this time, that means most companions should be returning in some way. Thank God they're not going with a timeskip with just Liara surviving as initially suggested.

>>4013090>Garrus that high with no consequences with dealing with saleon/sidonis in ME1/2 and being a bitch when not speaking up to Shepard when finding out Shepard killed Mordin >Samommy that high despite no character development in 2 or 3 except for her daughters missions. Inconsequential to plot outside of suicide mission and having the shittiest romance out of ME2 squadmates (Kelly dont count).>Wrex not in S tier and under Liara, Garrus, and Samara>Virmire Survivors being ahead of GOAT's like Miranda, Tali, Legion, and Mordin>Grunt and Javik not at least A tier.>fucking Jacob ahead of Thane, EDI and ZaeedPlease explain.
>>4000133>Mordin below Grunt>Kasumi higher than C tier>Wrex as low as B tier>Liara in fucking bottom tierAt least you got Javik, VS's, James, and Jacob where they should be.
Just confirmed, Expanse you get a blonde sniper girl with a nice body, but based off Exodus all you get so far from a fenale companion is a twiggy short haired dyke.
>>4013087Generals go on>>>/vg/
>>4013097Read the actual OP, gave specific topics and didn't mention it being a general.
>>4013092>>Garrus that high with no consequences with dealing with saleon/sidonis in ME1/2 and being a bitch when not speaking up to Shepard when finding out Shepard killed Mordin He's there mostly for his ME1 performance and some bro moments from ME3.>>Samommy that high despite no character development in 2 or 3 except for her daughters missions. Inconsequential to plot outside of suicide mission and having the shittiest romance out of ME2 squadmates (Kelly dont count).I liked her and enjoyed talking with her.>>Wrex not in S tier and under Liara, Garrus, and Samaraeh, I just don't see him as an S-tier mate>>Virmire Survivors being ahead of GOAT's like Miranda, Tali, Legion, and MordinI played through most of ME1 with them one time. They're underrated and fun. >>Grunt and Javik not at least A tier.Grunt tries too hard but a fine guy overall. Javik is a DLC character. Never used him much, only talked to him. Maybe I'm autistic.>>fucking Jacob ahead of Thane, EDI and ZaeedHe has some unique convos aboard the derelict Reaper and overall a fine guy. Thane I didn't like, EDI I appreciate as the AI. Zaeed is a DLC character and kind of boring.In conclusion, chars in tiers S and A I'd gladly use on missions. Tier Bs have situational use (like the Derelict Reaper. Grunt and Jacob shred those husks with ease). Tier Cs I get it why they're with Shepard, but I don't want to use them.Tier D is nah man, I don't feel it at all.
>>4013099>and didn't mention it being a generalWhy does it need an edition if it's not a general?
>>4013100Just admit it nigga, you liked Samara either for tits and/or Dommy Mommy/MILF fetish.As for your explanation on Jacob, I can't even. Didn't bring him with me past the second mission so cant say on that, but his power ups are trash. Can't see ever taking him over Miranda, Grunt, and Garrus on a ME2 mission.Also Wrex ain't your mate, that's your nigga, gotta play the Citadel DLC. Same goes for Javik.Me thinks you ain't play the LE version.
For those that ain't seen Dantics Shepard plays video, its a must watch. Basically an anti woke 4 hour comp where he voices the mass effect characters using AI.https://youtu.be/tEG_NwJZBKM?si=Ayy15XgxYLF27aE5Even does the character tier list mentioned in the OP.
>>4013102This interview is over.
I have never used Jacob outside of required portions of ME2.
>>4013087ME had such good companions I pretty much gave them all a go
>>4013118You really think Ashley or Kaiden were likeable?I mean I pretty much took Garrus and Wrex everywhere with me desu. Even Tali and Liara were lucky to get a ride but I never bothered with human companions except Miranda.
>>4013123That's more of a you problem. I used Kaiden and Ashley just fine.
>>4013087How the fuck is Urdnot Wrex more powerful than Professor Solus exactly? Mordin can kill billions of Krogans in one single evening concocting a plague to eliminate ALL life on Tuchunka overnight if we wanted. The thing is despite having the power to do so easily Mordin doesn't actually want to kill all the violent Krogans on Tuchunka because he is a genuinely big guy. Meanwhile Wrex is a little man who actually wants to kill all of the peaceful Salarians on Sur'Kesh but lacks the power to do so
>>4013123Yes I thought they were likeable
>>4013123Ashley is likable in the sense I like to mock her, belittle her, make her eat dirt, scold her and humiliate her at every chance the game gives me and she still shows up in my quarters before the Illos Mission reciting her nerdy poetry praying her God will let her suck my space balls and eat my space poops. Ashley is a refreshingly realistic take on writing female space marines. Kaiden was based too btw until EA turned him into a certified gay
>>4013123Yeah
most ME2 additions that aren't Mordin/Legion or Miranda/Jack are very forgettable
>>4013127It's just a general tierlist, as in favorites not strength.Putting Mordin and Wrex both in top tier is a patrician choice.
>>4013133I'm so glad they gave her a boobjob and a makeover in ME3. Both her and Liara were totally unfuckable in ME1.
>>4013282>Jennifer in assntitty committee when she's built like a toothpick and also arguably weakest female companion combat wise.>Ashley one whole tier above over Miranda, Tali, and Liara who get the most character development Grunt deserves a tier between your assntitty and mid tier. He doesn't get the most character development but he's a top 3 ME2 and top 5 ME3 character when it comes to combat.
>>4013097There are no rules against generals on /v/alkan boards anymore, check the rules. Which make sense because these boards are slow enough anyway.
>>4013102>implying Wrex ever made it till Citadel DLC and didn't get his face blown off in Virmire
>>4013369>being a retard and not maxing out either paragon or renegade skill points or even just getting his family armor when he asks you as a favor to get arguably the strongest and most chad companion in the seriesShiggydiggyHonestly, good litmus test for someone is a psychopath/sociopath or just a stupid nignog is to see if they killed Wrex out of malice or willful ignorance, if so shows they're not to be trusted.The ones that keep him alive and then fuck him over in 3 to kill him later though deserve to be castrated without a doubt.
>>4013373Let's be honest. Wrex was himself a chimping out nignog and the krogan are basically a race of space vermin. You should have no qualms about killing them/him.
>>4013386Yeah if you went paid attention during the Tuchanka missions in ME2 and especially ME3, you'll see that Krogan had proper civilization before nuking eachother hence why they never got spaceflight until Salarians gave it to them.Also calling Wrex a chimping nignog makes no sense because even by the time of Virmire he'll tell you why he had to put his dad down was because he wanted a better feature for the Krogan instead of the supposed nignog shit you're accusing him of. This is elaborated in ME2 where you find out how much of a big shot Wrex was in reality, but was humble about it in ME1.
>>4013341It is interesting how the Commander never compliments Ash on her makeover, or even given the option for that matter. Why aren't there any dialogue options to talk about her new boobs or haircut? It's almost like Shepard doesn't pay particularly close attention to what his shipmates even look like because he exists in a perpetual state of hyper-focus directed towards saving the Way from the likes of Batarians and Synthetics>>4013339>No no it's a generalized tier listIf that is indeed the case the tierlist maker should have included all voice acted shipmates like Navigator Presly, Joker, Engineer Adams, Yeomen Chambers, Corporal Jenkems, Dr.Chocolates, Mess Sergeant Gardner, Dr.Michel, Jenny Goldstein, Burt, Sarah Patel, Zach Matthews, Ken, Gabby and etc from the get-go. Otherwise Jacob will always land dead last place in 99% of the lists without pushovers like Kelly to out-score. And personally I don't even care whether Jacob is black or white btw, I only care about whether he is biotic or not. This thread should be nuked and OP should make a better one with a better list maker with more Normandy crew>Putting Mordin and Wrex both in top tier is a patrician choiceYes>>4013353You have to switch Zaeed and Garrus. on paper Zaeed's track record is 100 times more impressive and 1,000 times more extensive than Garrus's who was basically laughably cucked Detective before he met Shepard who still can't even work up the quads to try and pick up a female Turian at a bar by ME3 without Shepard's direct intervention so imagine how incel Detective Vakarian was before ME1 even starts. Meanwhile Zaeed was a gigachad since age 13 and does not "need" Shepard to hold his hand like Garrus does. By the time you meet Zaeed he has already banged over 100 lethal Asari Commandos and killed millions of Krogans so everybody on the Normandy knows fighting the Collectors will be a walk in the park for Zaeed>>4013386This. Even the Krogan admit that Krogan Lives Don't Matter
>>4013341She's hot with a helmet on. Thank bioware for giving me a space knightfu
>>4013395That's because hes not fazedHe's got ME3's version of Liara who also apparently got the memo and hit the squat regimen, also got a boobjob, and work on her face/learning to use makeup.Not to mention the obvious which is Mirandas's natural master tier body which Trashley even comments on when you meet her at the hospital in ME3 if you dumped her for Miranda talking jealously saying that she at least has flaws and that Miranda isn't apparently to make Miranda fake or some shit.I mean sorry, Miranda, Tali, and Liara are just far more loyal than Ashley was.Even if you romance Ashley and keep the romance in ME3 she's still has barely any dialogue in between missions. It gives a reason to keep Kaidan alive which while he doesn't have that much more dialogue than Ashley, still has more impact on the games story after bringing either VS back to the team.Human companions in general were skimped on, but especially the VS's.
>>4013395>agrees that Mordin and Wrex are top tier>then says Krogan Lives Don't MatterFuck off, and its not just Wrex that's great. His wife and Grunt were based too.
