Terminus Armor Shepard, Our armor technicians found a high-performance suit for you that was manufactured in the Terminus Systems -- that is to say, it isn't exactly legal in Citadel space. It's been delivered to your quarters so you can try it on. Hope you like the color.

Player Notes

• The storm speed, reserve ammunition and shield strength bonuses are all fairly useful for combat-oriented classes (Infiltrator among others), since it allows the player to get to cover faster, and get off more shots. However, the total lack of any bonuses to weapon damage should be noted.

Player Notes

• The armor sets bonuses to Melee Damage, Shield Strength and Ammo Capacity make it an ideal choice set for tanking Vanguards who like to close the distance on their opponents. Melee Damage compliments the close quarters powers and heavy attacks of Vanguards and the increase in ammo suits the Vanguards signature weapon, the shotgun, most of which tend to have less standard ammo than other classes of weapons. The Shield boost offers the Vanguard extra protection when charging headlong into the thick of things.
• Shotgun-wielding Infiltrators may also want to consider this armor. The Ammo Capacity boost is useful with low-capacity shotguns such as the Claymore, and the bonus to Melee damage can further enhance the Shotgun-toting Infiltrators abilities at close range.
