Mass effect trilogy

[Mephistoles]

Definitely play the soldier first to get back into the games. In ME1, you're durable and have access to all weapons, because powers work differently to the other two games they are less relevant. ME2, adrenaline rush is your friend and incendiary ammo is very powerful, adds extra damage but more importantly it panics unprotected organics and stops krogan/vorcha/other health regeneration. Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC is an option if you want more Liara facetime. Energy drain is good bonus power for stripping shields and restoring your own, acting as a panic button.

In ME3, the soldier is a complete beast and don't let anyone tell you otherwise, you can get through the game with ease without firing a single shot. Concussive shot can be upgraded to gain the effects of your active ammo power. With this upgrade and an ammo power active, you both prime and detonate your own power combos with every shot - with -200% cooldown and incendiary ammo you can then fire explode your way through the game without breaking a sweat since health and armour just melts away. You can use disruptor ammo to conc. shot the big shields on things like Atlases, and barriers take extra damage from both the ammo and concussive shot. Energy drain is again a good bonus power.
