Choosing the right squadmates for each mission is crucial. Their powers can complement Shepard's abilities, create powerful combos, and provide tactical advantages. Consider the enemy types you'll face and select squadmates whose powers are effective against them. For example, bringing Garrus and Liara provides excellent tech and biotic combo potential, while James and EDI offer strong weapon and tech support.
Effective Squad Combinations:
- Biotic Combo Focus: Shepard (Adept/Vanguard) + Liara + Javik.
- Tech Combo Focus: Shepard (Engineer/Infiltrator) + Garrus + EDI.
- Balanced Approach: Shepard (Soldier/Sentinel) + Liara + James.
- Anti-Armor: Shepard + Garrus + James (focused on Incendiary Ammo/Concussive Shot).
