So been playing my Drell Adapt alot more and now that hes 20 i do see noticeable amount of damage coming from reave vs everything that has no sheilds. On gold I can easly take out a Brute on my own using Reave + Paladin. Phantoms are also just cannon fodder to me.

Couldn't kill an engineer to save my life though >_<. No way to deal with sheilds except for shooting

I believe the Mass Effect trilogy is massively (tehe) overrated. Sure Mass Effect 1 was great, I love it and think its by far the best of the three, but 2 and 3 werent like phenomenal games, not even great, just good games with arguably weak and cheesy story lines and concepts (like deus ex machina).


That's crazy. I think the series is one of the best video game trilogies like ever made. And after ME1 I think it only improved all the way. I never liked the heating up on weapons and just the combat in general. Shepard also sounded kind of cheesy to stuff and I think his responses are much better now. The way the romances were in ME1 were the best though I think. To each his own I guess.


ive only played me3, can you compare and contrast from me1? i found the whole romance thing in me3 quite shallow really. give paragon responses to everything they say and then turn down everyone else = romance.

then they treat you the same in every conversation afterwards, and only come back to your room on the night before the final mission. i really wish you could have real relationships (not just romances) with your crew, invite them up whenever you want to chat or do whatever, the comms girl likes chess, and then more things like shooting with garrus. except actually playing a shooting mini game rather than just making a choice whether to beat him or not in the game.

so much potential


Honestly I feel they did relationships much better in ME3, especially inter-crew relationships. One of the big things I felt was lacking in the first 2 were that crew barely acknowledged each others existence, even when they were saving the galaxy together.

There are some differences in dialog if you're in a relationship with a crew member, however I'll agree that it feels too easy to romance anyone. While I won't say I would want a mini-game to shoot with Garrus, I did enjoy those special interactions you could have with them. Granted some were much, much better than others.


The lessons of Dragon Age 2. The game failed in some critical respects, but at least it allowed Bioware to learn about character relationships.

Drell adepts are still pretty good, especially against reapers. Reave is amazing, and when combined with grenades it causes a biotic nuke. I don't have any points in pull myself.

I personally am having the most fun as the salarian infiltrator & engineer. Both have a great set of skills. Hell, even proximity mines can be used like grenades.

My biggest problem with the multiplayer is the fact that I don't have a black widow yet.. It's getting a bit rediculous at this point, I think there are only 2 gold weapons left I don't have at 10, and I only have the Talon and the Javelin 2 (javelin is horrible compared to widow btw). Most of my spectre packs now just contain a bunch of character cards, which I have no use for whatsoever because I have all of them at level 20. Their system is set up so that the chance of getting ultra rares doesn't actually increase as you stop getting the rare weapons, you just get crap like character cards and power resets instead.

The Black Widow makes things very fun, though I've had horrible luck trying to get a second one to upgrade it at all. I've been pushing those special packs the past day now, hopefully I'll get something later today or tomorrow.

I find those new vet packs very satisfying. At the price of 33K (1 silver run) you get a chance for 2golds+. Me gusta

Ya a pack that contained all uncommons with at least 1 rare and a higher chance at ultra rare would be fantastic.

Is the max for weapon mods level 5 or 10?

Your doing it wrong IMO. Level 6 pull talents lets your biotic explosion deal 60% more damage. If you took nothing but duration and recharge buffs on reave it will still kill any enemy with a health bar on gold (Marauders/Centurions will require an additional second or two of reave damage after the explosion )

The achivement is for a level 10 weapon. I am asking about a mod, like Ultra Lightweight Materials or Heat Sink.

Oh okay, misunderstood you, sorry.
Not sure about the mods, can't recall having any higher than V, not sure 'bout that though.

Mods don't go higher then V. Also not skilling Pull is actually doing it right. Cluster grenades are so much better, and the drell adept is basicly straight up worse then the Asari Adept if you have to set up your own explosions. Basicly you want to be spamming drell to set up biotic explosions have have someone else blow them up with throw or something. Pull is bad because it only works on unshielded enemies and it can only set up explosions, not detonate them (unlike reave).

Lol they only made the game say that because they agree with Warri it was not really believable. Yet you bring it up as an argument? They tried to patch up their weak spots at some points.

As said above, let someone else explode your Reaves. You should be running around from ammo pack to ammo pack spamming those cluster grenades. Pull is useful on bronze but starts becoming really limited on Silver and Gold where everything is protected against it.

If you really want to use Pull then you can go 6-3-6-5-6 where you forsake your heavy pistol skill in return for 3 points in Pull, but your biotic explosions won't be as powerful as when you combine two level 6 skills.

It's a bit stupid telling someone they min-maxed a Drell adept wrong....
If you're trying to min-max and picked a Drell adept you're ALREADY doing it wrong. Asaris are just way better.

Maybe some just want to play the character they have most fun with? Yeah strange concept I know.

I just cannot seem to get the Carnifex or Asari Adept. I have Disciple V, Falcon VI, 6 respec cards, 5 item increases and a slew of other rare stuff, but no Widow, Black Widow, Carnifex, Paladin or Asari Adept. Oh well, Locust X is decent for my Sentinel.

What are other peoples experiences with pugging btw? I seem to win about 4 out of 5 silver pugs, but I havent tried gold yet. Kinda want to max out decent weapons for that.

It's a bit stupid calling using a drell adept 'wrong'. They're pretty damn good in the right situations, especially Gold-farming runs.
