Nice stuff. I am more of a fan of my Drell Marksman build - Cerberus Harrier, Saber or other headshot machines. For groups of mooks I just charge straight in and aim for the face, the 50% DR I find to be good enough on Gold to kill a small group of whatever. For Platinum I have to start using ammo power combos but I still like it on plat. I also put the Reegar (inb4 Reegar) on him because lolBossSpam.

Maybe I'm missing something, but when charge and DA are at three ranks:
Charge Force: 870N
= 600N (base value)
+ 30% (180N) Biotic Charge 3
+ 10% (60N) Drell Assassin 1
+ 5% (30N) Drell Assassin 2
The most recent balance change for the drell was on Oct24
- Rank 1 power damage bonus increased from 5% to 10% (already factored in, above)
- Evolution 2 power damage bonus increased from 10% to 15%
- Evolution 3 power damage bonus increased from 15% to 20%
Evo 2 gets you to 960 (870+90)
Evo 3 adds up to 1080 (960+120)
Is base force higher than 600?

It's 650. At 600, those with 35% max bonus (only Humans now, but used to also include Drell) still couldn't stagger Phantoms, so was increased to 650.

Base Charge force was buffed from 600 to 650 months ago.
Yeah I missed it too... Find out last week.

Good choice of music too...
It's a great throwback to when video games were about being bad-ass, wandering god-slayers instead of brooding, reluctant teenagers en route to things "epic" and "mature". The music I used here was from 2005's Ys: The Oath in Felghana, a remake of 1989's Ys III: Wanderers from Ys. You have to love the hair metal influences from that era. This is the TG-16 version of the second song back in 1991.

I've been rocking him off host quite often lately. Gold not Plat so far, but regardless thanks again for the guide.

Glad I could inspire you. Drellguard is a hell of a lot of fun if you're up to the challenge. Only gear I carry in Gold is incendiary ammo for the explosions.

Great guide. I can now dominate gold, and I have a reason to play vanguard again.
Also, yeah, I only really need incindiary ammo. Although, a speed bonus makes him untouchable.
