But if you really want to tear ass without managing your squad? Gotta go Vanguard. Set up Squad Cryo Ammo, turn on Inferno Ammo, and start Charging your way to the glory land.

Oh don't mistake me, I like Vanguard, Sentinel, and even Adept (minus the stupid global cooldown...ugh!) just fine. But what I like best about the soldier is that I can switch up my playstyle on the fly. I can turn one fight into a close-in pounding match, then make the next one a snipefest, do something in between, or even do all three. I enjoy that flexibility, not because it's necessary, but because I can play whimsically and still do fine. Unlike all the other classes, I really have no preferred tactic for the Soldier, because I never do the same thing long enough to get attached. Shoot, I had an Insanity run without once using Adrenaline Rush or the squad ammos; that made me get creative!

How in the world

Also one thing about new players using SOldier is that they sometimes play the game without using powers at all! I helped out someone who got through the whole game, up to the final battle in Overlord, without ever using Adrenaline Rush! He thought this was the hardest game ever up to that point.
