User blog comment:Jimi56/Top 5 Specialists/@comment-1263839-20160316221433

I've developed resentment for most of the specialist abilities and weapons as a result of doing all the Hero challenges for them (I'm about to finish Scythe, and then I'll be done). That said:

Firebreak is the most fun for me. The Purifier has remained as overpowered as it always has without being as frustrating to face as say, the Tempest. Heat Wave is just a blast (lol) to use, super effective.

Glitch is my favourite specialist ability, especially when using it as intended (an escape method) rather than as a killing device. I don't like using the Tempest, and I find it the most annoying to fight against.

Battery I've actually gained appreciation for after doing the Hero challenges. Initially, I hated how inconsistent the War Machine was, but now I've come to like it as a general use weapon. I probably won't revisit her though. Kinetic Armour is just rubbish though.

Pyschosis is a lot of a fun to use, and I immensely look forward to going back to it and finishing off the 100 kills challenge. The Scythe is too inconsistent for me, and it doesn't suit my playing style and I find it hard to adapt to it.

Rejack was fun (if overpowered) in the beta. Now it's just a nightmare. H.I.V.Es are fun, though again my playstyle usually doesn't keep me alive long enough to make good use of them.

I'd say my favourite five Specialist things (can't name Specialists overall) are:
 * 5: Overdrive
 * 4: Psychosis
 * 3: Purifier
 * 2: Heat Wave
 * 1: Glitch

The beta version of Vision Pulse would have been my #3. Sadly it's mediocre now.

Least favourite five (bearing in mind Hero challenges have bothered me):
 * 5: Kinetic Armour
 * 4: Combat Focus
 * 3: Rejack
 * 2: Annihilator
 * 1: Sparrow
