User blog comment:Legionwrex/Best and worst sqaud mates of Mass effect 2/@comment-3433464-20110218154510

Hello. I'm new here. This is my first post.

For me, the best squad mate is Either Tali or Legion. Their drones are invaluable during combat - especially when fighting hordes of husks. They create valuable distraction when you're taking heat, and force enemies out of cover for easy picking. Their hack abilities are useful for obvious reasons. With these two I can turn an entire platoon of enemies into disarray. I spam them with drones and hack their mechs. And while they're busy shooting the drones and their mechs (or in the Geth's case, themselves), I can pick them off one at a time. Overall, Tali edges out Legion just a hair because of her special shield drain ability (and she has a shotgun).

As for the worse squad mate, I would have to say Mordin. He's just pretty much useless IMO. Yeah, he has incinerate, but if I needed someone to fight against armored enemies (such as the blood pack) then I would probably take Miranda - as her warp is effective against both armor and barriers. Plus she knows overload. And I don't know about anyone else, but my Mordin seems to die all the time, more than any other squad mate in fact.

So those are the best/worse squad mates IMO - at least combat wise.
