Squad members are listed in approximately the order in which they become available. If Shepard is meant to be included, the terms 'party' or 'party member' will be used. Note: When the terms 'squadmate' or 'squad member' are used in this guide, they are only referring to other NPC characters and not Shepard. Also, the customizable appearances feature for squadmates returns from Mass Effect 2, but significantly, the various armors and outfits now have gameplay effects-see the table on this page for reference. Finally, for recommendations on which squadmates to take on specific missions, see the Walkthrough page for that mission.Ī good basic understanding of how Power Combos work is essential for getting the most out of squadmates in Mass Effect 3, especially on higher difficulties, so be sure to review that page and see the quick reference table here. For in-depth information on the various abilities, equipment, and weapon options, investigate those individual pages as most will contain notes and recommendations on squadmate use.

For recommendations on what squadmate choices work well for specific player classes, see the individual Class Guides. This page focuses on what makes a particular squad member stand out compared to others and is meant to serve as a starting point for how to assemble a team.
