If you are playing the first Mass Effect game in the Legendary Edition as a Soldier be careful about a serious bug affecting the Overkill ability from the Assault Rifles tree.

The first two ranks of the ability work as intended but the highest rank, Master Overkill, does not provide the promised reduction of heat generation.

The video content in detail:

0:00 Introduction
0:20 Overkill and Advanced Overkill
1:05 Master Overkill Bug

I thought it would be important to make a video about this bug because given the lack of respec capabilities in the first Mass Effect it can really compromise your build.

My advice is to invest points in the Assault Rifles tree until you unlock Sniper Rifles and then you can consider how much you like using Assault Rifles.
You can invest one more point and unlock Advanced Overkill or if you really like Assault Rifles you can keep investing points except in the last rank.

If you want my opinion I’d say to stop once you unlocked Sniper Rifles or when you unlock Advanced Overkill and then invest points in Sniper Rifles.

I personally find Sniper Rifles plus some point in Shotguns one of the best options for Soldiers in the first Mass Effect.

If you are interested in more Mass Effect videos my channel will serve you well.
