Sure, it's easy to say that you can go into each mission with anyone you want- it's an RPG after all- but screw that, we're here to gauge each companion's utility. This tier lists each squadmate in terms of utility, power selection, power allocation, and weapon loadout.
Not as bad as Mass Effect 1 Insanity (FUCK YOU BENEZIA) but I digress. It gives you a challenge that's fun, rewarding, and at times frustrating. However, Insanity provides more than a measly achievement. I think it's safe to say that Mass Effect 2 isn't the most difficult game out there if you're playing anything below Insanity- enemies just get general buffs but that's about it.
