Easily now my favourite class on gold. Usually use him whenever a friend or stranger uses an asari adept. They usually don't notice the reave sound when the screen is filled with biotic explosions anyways lol. You'd be surprised at just how much more survivability you get from his rank 6 fitness, that speed boost is especially important when there are three atlases and phantoms closing on your position and you need to make a mad dash to somewhere else. I'd recommend the 6/3/6/5/6 build. Usually you are just spamming reave and comboing with another biotic. Cluster grenades are amazing for emergencies and spike damage vs bosses. The lack of grenade refills isn't a huge problem when you're the only one using grenades, or at least outrunning the other guy to them. Plus you can always use an ammo pack or two. I like at least 3 points in pull so you can easily handle guardians and lower level enemies on your own. Also pull works on phantoms once you've stripped their barriers.

Plus you can falcon punch a phantom in the chest

When the Reave sound get removed I might give him a try. Played the Drell Adept once but that awful sound made me quit at the start and going back for my Human Adept.

Don't forget: there is no class in the game--NO class--that can clear a tight group of enemies as fast as Drell Adept. Reave+cluster grenade decimates groups of even powerful enemies, I have saved games so many times by reave+cluster grenade. Reave can't be dodged and neither can the grenades, making it a guarantee to work if you have the target sight in the right spot.

I can't say i've noticed the Reave sound effect that much, but then, i'm used to working with power tools and blocking out noise. Is it really that bad ? Can't be worse than some of the background noise/chatter you get from some peoples mics.

[ladyshara]

Just unlocked him and I think he's going to be my new favorite. Wish his shields were tougher but I'm assuming once you've got a good handle on how to play him and have some points thrown into fitness it's not a big crutch.

And staying in motion can be kind of cool. Cartwheel past an enemy crowded room and throw a grenade in... feel all matrix like lol.

Maybe it's just me, but lot of player don't know much about this class?

I was playing with these guys (widow/salarian infiltrator maniacs), and they were making fun of me, because I was using the drell adept. They say it's an awful and weak class...

[underm1nd]

yeah drell adept is boss, just got a 103k points silver game with a full team and i was lvl 16 xD

[ThatDamnSalarian]

The drell adept seems cool but.. Pull doesn't seem that useful and I dislike relying on grenades. Reave is great yes, but without warp or throw or something similar the Drell Adept is just inferior to the Asari for me.

Is there a particular way to play it?

Get one of your friends to play an asari adept and laugh while the two of you hoard all of the points. At least thats how I convinced the guys I play with that my drell Isn't garbage. However, despite having the awesome reave/cluster nade combo, the drell really needs a good partner to shine

[cruc1al]

Drell adept is great. Reave with a low cooldown and area effect is awesome at staggering an invading army. Only the non-staggerable troops can get anywhere near you.

But as adepts go, I prefer Asari. It has stasis for cc, and it's more of a heavy hitter than drell. Warp and throw both specced for combo damage ftw (+100% total).

And as drells go, I MUCH prefer the vanguard. Spec it for melee damage + shotgun, and you're assassinating troops all across the map with your charge+heavy melee. Especially fun vs Cerberus as you get to use pull + shotgun versus Guardians

It is inferior unless you are playing on a team with other biotics, and they know how to combo off you.  At that point it's arguably better.  Either way though, it's a solid class.  Better than most without a doubt.

 yeah get a good light weapon(carnifex is the best choise for me) and what u cant pull - reave it and then continue pumping it with led, until you can pull it or its dead. Its not so hard really... Also the grenades are usefull, but there is no point of getting them above rank 4, fitness too just to rank 4 and maxout everything else.

The drell adept is a completely different beast than the asari adept. With the asari your main goal is CC and containing dangerous enemies with stasis bubble, and using warp/throw for biotic explosions for decent damage. With the drell, your first concern is setting up biotic explosions for teammates. First off, AoE reave is amazing, and makes entire mobs vulnerable to biotic explosions from your allies warps (or your own cluster grenades) for massive dammage. Against larger bosses, the fact that warp and reave detonate each other means a continuous volley between you and your biotic buddy will bring them down fast. Also, reave hits instantly like overload, meaning it can reach enemies much faster than warp/throw could, increasing the rate of bio combos. On gold, any time you have a decent position you should be next to your biotic buddy just spamming reave and bullets between cooldowns.

When things get sticky is where playing the drell gets more interesting however. Now instead of just camping you are using your speed to manuever around, in some cases full on sprinting past enemies if necessary. Just don't get cornered. Always keep in mind where ammo crates are for more nades and always aim your reaves to where your bio buddy is facing. Pull enters in the equasion when you're split up and need to solo some enemies. It staggers even shielded enemies, and is a godsend vs guardians. As I mention earlier, if you find yourself having to solo a phantom or three, AoE Reave/Nade or worst case reave their barriers then pull/reave. Basically, when things are good you are a reave spamming combo buddy, when they are bad you are a hit and run nade collector, dashing and cartwheeling all over the map.

Drell adept is a pretty cool guy. Now if only other biotics would learn to detonate the glowy blue bad guys.

[WiqidBritt]

complete glass cannon, I got the gold killstreak medal with cluster grenades on glacier, but went down twice trying to revive a krogan teammate under fire in the same match.

[Phaezen1]

What's not to like? Pull & Reave power through enemies, +200% recharge rate with an Avenger X which helps get rid of those pesky shields pretty much a solid all round class.

[BLY78NOR]

I had a lot of fun with it before i got the Asari i haven't touched it since

[Malanek]

It's kind of weird. I unlocked Drell Adept with the very first starting pack and I liked it as I levelled it up to 20, but I was always a little jealous of the Asari adept. After promoting and starting the Adept class off again I now realise I actually prefer the Drell Adept to the Asari, although to be fair, both are fun.

[AxeloftheKey]

I dig him, with my N7 Valiant he's pretty beastly.

[Navasha]

I would play them more, if they would fix the sound problem.

Damn bloody Asaris... Asari with maxed throw can make some real damage with Drell's Reave, but what do we know... Stasis is always better right? Even against atlas and brutes...

I die so quickly as a drell which is why I don't use them alot. They have cool ass clothing, though.

[Horacio Zhao]

like them, but I have to say that the noise of Reave makes me want to slap something, that's just too annoying

[Ryuji2]

I usually have music going so I don't hear the Reave sound most of the time. I'll quiet it down when I need to listen for certain enemies though.
