Those were the fun parts of being a Renegade. But a large part of it boiled down to "I like to be mean even when it gains me no advantage", which made me wonder why they didn't just label them good/evil and be done with it.
I donno about the Vanguard being the weakest class out there. I actually stopped playing that character for a little bit before I got Shock-Trooper because I desperately wanted an Assault Rifle. I wasn't impressed, and went back after a few hours of play. In the end, the ability to drop Barrier + Shield Boost + Marksman allowed me to actually play like the Vanguard is described - rushing headlong into the face of death, guns blazing. Push actually had some limited use in clearing enemy cover, and even L1 Warp is a great damage resistance debuff.
I'm not sure I'll ever have the patience for it, but I'd love to get the Assault Rifle Expert achievement and play as a Vanguard with AR's.
I'm an idiot - I think I'll just jump in tonight, use Barrier a ton, the play a Soldier. Weaker Barrier than a Van, sure, but yay for Damage Immunity or whatever.
