And what about the last rank of Drone? Rockets or increased shock?

My female engineer leaves out combat drone. Maxed out everything else and I've become a God amongst men along with the Vindi and Phalanx X.

Also go with rockets.

Combat Drone is useful against Banshees/Brutes, as they seem to be hypnotized by them.

Kinda depends on difficulty, cause the drone in my opinion is awesome on bronze, meh on silver and a waste of time on gold.

Don't leave any skills out, they are all very useful.

This is what I use - All skills maxed out with a sacrifice of 1 slot of Training and 3 slots of Fitness.

Drone is extremely useful against big targets, but you do not need to max it.I usually leave fitness out tough...

Not to mention guardians.

I leave out the last rank of Alliance training for 3 fitness.

Combat drone is great when you figure out how to use it. It can actually kill things with the rockets. And it's a great distrator.

Thanks. What do you think about only taking 4 Ranks of Incinerate for tech bursts and then taking 5 ranks of Fitness? Then using a weapon AmmoPen.I guess I will try out the Rockets but I just like the sound of Chain Lighting.

Combat Drone is too important to drop, and you need both Overload and Incinerate maxed for the most powerful tech bursts. Alliance Training 5 is needed to add power to double-chain Overload and the chaining drone, but the last rank isn't important and can be better spent in Fitness.

So yeah, I'm with everyone else here. 6/6/6/5/3 is best.

Only thing about a Rocket Drone is it doesn't fire off enough rockets in its short lifespan to be worth it.

I'd rather have it chain electricity on enemies to lessen their shields and just overall keep 'em busy.

So I get better tech bursts with maxed Incinerate? I gotta ask you what you take for last rank of Drone? Rockets or Chain Lighting I have seen calls for both. Which is better for overall crowd control?

Chain Lightning. Rockets are slow.

my two right now are 6/6/6/5/3 and 3/6/6/5/6. The latter using the drone strictly as a distraction
What you choose for rank 6 of the drone depends on if you are more focused on the drone doing DPS or setting off tech bursts. The higher the difficulty the more I'd lean toward speccing for tech bursts.

Fitness. 6/6/6/5/3 build. If you don't know how to use drone and leave it out, A Turian Sentinel is probably a better fit for you.

Rockets make the drone far less useful. Never take that awful skill. When you do, your drone likes to sit back at a range and fire the damn things. The entire point of the drone is that it gets into enemy faces and electrocutes them, momentarily stunning and freeing attention off you and the party. Rockets completely remove the point of the drone.

Incinerate is needed for tech bursts, which are powerful. They're strongest if both powers used (the prime and the detonator, which are Overload and Incinerate for you) are both rank 6.

Okay so I think I am going to go with Chain Lighting. My thinking with only bring Incinerate to Rank 4 was that it would be enough for tech bursts. Then I guess using my weapon vs Armor. So, I guess thats all I have left to choose. Max Incinerate or 4 ranks of Incinerate and 5 ranks of Fitness. Or haha actually if my Drone is set up for chain lighting overload does not do that much damage anyway. So, I could take 5 ranks of Fitness and 3 of AT.

Combat Drone. Never liked it.

"Oh but it can tank Banshee's" .. I don't care. It's not worth investing one single point in, imo.

Combat Drone is nearly as good as Decoy at getting enemy attention, and yet its shock abilities are farther ranged. Its ability to move is something of a problem because it chases things down, and it's not a tank like Decoy seems to be, but it's still a great skill.

Sure. If you need to tank a Banshee, then it might be good. But I like to kill them, not tank them.
