I can't stand the Drell Adept. Pull only works on non-shielded targets, and Reave only detonates when pull actually works, so doing massive Biotic Detonations is nearly impossible. Apparently Cluster Grenade sets off a combo, but they still are limited quantity and grenades just always find a new way to miss completely. I accidentally decided to use a Drell on gold difficulty instead of my normal Asari, since oh so many people love it. Huge mistake, I was completely useless and didn't even get 50% of the points of the third to last player.


You're just bad


Oh, maybe I was bad, because I played a Drell Adept? Maybe that was the entire point of the post?

Drell is arguably the most powerful support class in the game. Lol at these naysayers its incredibly obvious how high tier he is.

A support class is just another way of saying you need support.

So many Drell Adept noobs in here. He's my fave Adept. Pull is awesome and set's up biotic explosions like mad crazy. Whoever doesn't know how to play a Drell Adept is a straight up noob. I usually lead Gold matches with my Adept and I'm the only adept in the party.

Pull (especially when you can pull within a 3 metre radius) + Reave sets up your own biotic explosions. No need for the overrated cluster bombs or any other adept for that matter.

You can only use Pull on targets with Health, so stop playing bronze and thinking you're dominating gold.

Reave stacks so keep reaving everything drops like flies if there is a huge group circle jerking each other. If there is one unprotected target in a group then BOOM set everyone else off, if not toss a grenade. Easiest character to play with and can be top DPS no matter what else is in the party. Carry a Carnifex and headshot some mobs at the same time.

If the sound didn't bug out on the Drell Adept, I wouldn't mind it. However, 15-20 minutes of on-and-off bugged sound gives me a headache and makes me lose my ****.

Drell Adept + Human Vanguard = full of win.

Just run around with him and AoE Reave the hell out of things.
Go check out Xcal on YT if you want to see it done right.

The Drell Adept is actually my favourite class. I just sit back with a sniper and reave/cluster grenade anything that gets close.

I'm heavily reliant on my teammates holding their own though, if they cant then we're going to die pretty quick.

Yes.  Medics are also a support class.  They are incredibly valuable in pretty much every team based shooter being played online on Earth right now.  

A class that isn't much on its own, but makes competent teammates around him better? Nah screw that lets all just snipe instead.

 The Drell Adept is probably my favorite class.  Except the Reave noise.  Please kill the Reave noise with holy water.

I look around.  My heart is pounding in my ears.  I look at my Asari squadmate.  A pained expression on her face, she bellows something to me.  My barriers have just failed.  I didn't even hear them pop...  In the corner, the turian is huddled, hands pressed against his ear holes.  An explosion shakes my teeth.  I didn't hear it either.  I look up to Gods.  "Fix this!" I pray...

I don't love the Drell Adept on his own, but Drell Adept + Asari Adept is just phenomenal. Since Warp and Reave are both primers AND both detonators, things get filthy pretty quickly.

Add a second Asari Adept spamming Throw and the enemies look like they're under a constant artillery barrage. I've never seen Banshees/Brutes/Everything evaporate that quickly.

I've played Drell Adepts on silver with no other biotic classes and totally owned. Sure they could kill faster with other biotics, but if you know how to play them they are just fine by themselves. Between reave, grenades, melee and a carnifex, they mess things up.

Pull specced for combos (Expose + Duration&Combos) set off by Clusters specced for combos (Damage Combo) is the most powerful biotic splosion in the game. The dmg output can clear all lesser mobs in a wide radius and seriously damage bosses even on gold.

The problem is you just can't spam it like Warp+Throw. You have to find a unprotected target and you have to have the nades (Damage Combo comes at the expense of capacity). So it's fun on Silver but in the frantic Gold matches it's got only limited use. That's why Asari Adept on gold is best Adept class, just becaues she can spam her combos every few seconds.

And Reave is great but it's the only good ability DA has. Clusters are cute but on Gold all nades are pointless when an Atlas has like 20k HP. And Pull, just like Singularity, has only very limited use as it works only on basic grunts which can be slapped to death by a pistol butt. Add DA's low barriers and you have very underpowered class IMO.

True, the DA's barriers feel about as protective as wet tissues, But that's why Reave has the damage reducttoin perk.  It's still not very effective, though.

It is an amazing class/character, probably my second favourite.

Add just one other biotic class to the team,and you've got the potential for crazy detonation spam.
Even on it's own the drell adept can tear a lot of things up without too much difficulty.

If I could swap cluster grenade for throw, then it would be my favourite class without a doubt.

Drell Adept with someone else on the squad to spam throw and set off the kaboom = AWESOME

Drell Adept without any other biotics on the team = not so awesome.

It's hard to get reliable biotic explosions with Reave and Pull since Reave then Pull doesn't explode and Pull then Reave only explodes when the Pull worked, which it only does on unshielded enemies.

Can you imagine a Drell Adept with Pull, Reave, and Throw? :devil:

Still, a Drell Adept with the Carnifex can do some nice damage on Bronze or even Silver in skilled hands.

And he has bar none the BEST basic melee attack. Roundhouse kicking Husks is the best. :ph34r:

They are great but noone wants to play with them because everyone hears the reave sound the rest of the game. Would be nice if that got fixed.

Drell Adept is my favorite class for Gold, and I routinely win with him with the highest score. No class in the game--NO class--can inflict damage as fast as the Drell Adept. Yes, Asari Adept and Human Sentinel can do their own detonations, but Reave cannot be dodged and Cluster Grenades when maxed out with 3 shrapnels will create HUGE explosions in combination with Reave. You can do near-instant detonations with this combo, though you have to run to ammo pickups for grenades.

Drell Adept with an Asari Adept or Human Senty can perform incredibly powerful detonation--warp/reave is a can't-miss combo, with each one priming or detonating the other, so you'll never go out of sync with your attacks.

Drell Adept is possibly the best class in the game, IF you know how to use them. Too many people don't and assume the class is weak; I did the same originally, but once I learned how to use them, it quickly became my favorite class.

Dreads rule. Pull and Reave BOTH setup AND detonate biotic explosions. Yes he works better if you have another biotic on the team - but if you don't YOUR TEAM SUCKS. Even without help Pull/Reave or Reave/Pull is quite easy to setup explosions yourself. Set up both for AoE effect. No shields? Pull + Reave BOOM. Got shields? Reave then Pull a few more times - Pull has like a 1.0 sec recharge when maxed, spam that crap til something ANYTHING in the area is floating, then BOOM, the explosion will take out anything nearby.
