Could you PLEASE stop trying to throw it on Armoured enemies and instead throw something useful like reave instead.

Oh in case you didn't know, it might have a shiny +75% biotic kaboom power but it is NOT a Detonator! I might have warped an enemy so use Reave on it or let me Throw it to get a explosion.....

Sorry for the rant, had about 5 N7 1000-1500 in both Gold and Platinum games do nothing but use Pull on a Geth Primes, Banshees and shielded Phantoms and do jack-all... Image IPB

You would think players who have played that much would have read a basic biotic primer + detonator guide....
Image IPB Plus as they are on PC theres always the Mass effect wiki, no excuse.

Wish the stupid origins friends list was working, then i could get teammates who would happily help set up non-stop biotic bombs instead of random biotics....

Pull makes Banshees use their "power-block", which makes them unable to use their warp at the same time. Phantoms also activate their "power-block" so they must stand still (it remains for few seconds after they start moving but they MUST stand still to even activate it). Pull also staggers Geth Pyros, and many other enemies, even if they have their shields up.

P.S: I'm talking about Drellguard here, and only if charging is too dangerous (I mean who normal will charge banshee wit h full hp, whop just made her melee attack so she's read to sync-kill)

I like using pull on banshees. When they have a bar of armor left, very occasionally, I'll get a pull kill-steal. Do you have any idea how good it feels to see 'pull' next to 'Banshee' on the killfeed?

Sorry that I switch between several characters and sometimes in the same buttons usually there is the throw..........

.... Next time I will open my iPad in the middle of the game and look for a post to understand why I'm not detonating...

I know mistakes happen but when you see a Justicar throw 7 pulls on a row on a Geth Prime, you can't help wanting to smack her or throw her at the Prime as that would be more effective. Oh they don't seem to understand either when i tell them to use reave instead of pull.

Doesn't pull kill geth combat drones? Or just swarmers? *spacemagic*

About as good as it is to see [Cryo Blast] Banshee.

They do not exist here. Weekend events always bring out the best (of the worst).

Whenever I'm playing my demolisher I try so hard to get crazy supply pylon killfeed shenanigans. Unfortunately the best I have managed is a double mook kill. :(

I got the rare pylon banshee kill the other day. Was about to get insta-killed and spammed the 'y' button and somehow got out of the kill and set up a fresh pylon getting the old one to go 'boom' and take off the last bit off life. 'Twas so delicious.

On topic, I can't remember the last time I actually saw someone use pull. Must be the new classes.

If it can stagger, what's the problem? Damage isn't the only important thing to consider. I saw someone Lash an Atlas and it staggered. Saved a Destroyers life (they can't roll when using cannon mode). If he shot at it instead, the guy would have died and I think he was out of medigel.

Strategy isn't obvious to everyone since the action happens so fast. That's why microphones really help with communicating what we're doing.

I'm more irritated by grenade waste. 3 people throw a grenade at the same cluster of critters. 1 was all that was needed, but nobody communicated so they all tried to get the kills. If anything makes this game tedious (other than game balance), it is the scoreboard. Who cares who his first in co-op? But alas, the grenades keep flying to see who his first. Sometimes I think self inflicted damage would be a good addition to the game. Just sayin.

I "pulled" several Geth Primes to make them hesitate, then followed that up with gunfire, pull, gunfire...the team riddled it with fire as well. Pull recharges so quickly it creates that moment that keeps the Prime from firing its own weapons while eating gun fire from everyone else.

[Tactical Scan] Geth Prime

Ok, so it was the extraction "every enemy dies" point and the last power/weapon used on it was my tac scan, but it still felt awesome to see.

And about pull; I do it every now and then, usually if I just switched between classes. If they won't let you change the controls at least don't swap them about for no good reason!

It's also handy for a quick stun if you need a little breathing space.

I'll keep spamming throw/pull due to someone else either using disruptor ammo or tech. Other than that, usually I hit the wrong button. I use several characters.

Ok but if theres only  you and a Adept covering one area/entrance while the other 2 teammates are covering the other there is very little focus fire available espescially on Plat where the enemies tend to swarm you from all directions. Why not just cause a biotic explosion with reave instead of just making them hesitate?

Your idea works if you can funnel all the enemies into just one entrance but almost all maps have more than 2 entry points.

Hehe, not a problem, whats your origin ID by the way? Just in case i get into a game with you and notice someone happily trying to stasis a Banshee trying to give you a hug Image IPB . Just so i know the 4 man team is going to turn into a 3 man team game.

I'm frankly more frustrated by idiots using Stasis on enemies with armor. Every single time.

I could be wrong but i heard apparently some people detonated banshees using stasis/charge, but they are probably geniuses.

When I'm playing my AJ I kind of Pull/Reave as a reflex seeing as Pull recharge is about 1 second.

But on the occassions that an Adept is warping then its just Reave      .....    Reave .

I'll toss a singularity on an atlas because it is usually crowded with others around it.  If anything gets caught into the singularity, you can detonate it which impacts everything around it, including the atlas.  It may not be so obvious, but there really is a lot of strategy to this game.  However, a single atlas ("there is one enemy left") is really just biotic practice, nothing more.
