The Vanguard combines these two skill-groups into the most effective close-combat class in the Mass Effect series.
From the Adept, the Vanguard picks up Biotic abilities which allow them to both protect themselves and throw around their enemies in Mass Effect: Legendary Edition. From the Soldier, the Vanguard gains the ability to use weapons and armor to their full effect. It is a hybrid-style class, combining abilities from the Solider and Adept classes. The Vanguard is one of Mass Effect: Legendary Edition's six playable classes.
