Exactly. I wish more people would play like that... but I still see lots of adepts with disruptor ammo...

I saw one the other day. He scored 260k on a 20 minutes platinum.

Disruptor ammo overwrites your biotic primer, so instead of powerful BEs you get the weaker tech explosions.
I can't think of any situation in which an adept does better with disruptor ammo compared to Warp IV or Incendiary IV - except against Geth Hunters and Rocket Troopers.
On Gold and Plat you need to have a way to deal with armor quickly and disruptor ammo isn't it.

FQE. sets up nice synergy and since you don't have a shield stripper, good to go. I generally run her with a hurricane and disruptor. In general, any class with a fire power and no shield stripper or any class that's great against armor. Note also that level 4 will stagger mooks pretty reliably. Add an auto-fire weapon and you have a poor man's overload, allowing you to hose them down while they can't do anything to stop you.

I use them more than I use phasic.

They're not bad, they're just outclassed by other ammo types.

Help strip shields faster with the 400% (I think) adjustment to damage against shields so they can turn weapons that are not the acolyte into more effective shield strippers.  Also they can add a little extra damage with detonating.

They are better on Gold than on Platinum since there are more enemies that can be affected by the stun effect on Gold.

I tend to like disruptor ammo on some kits, be it plat or gold. Vanguards in general, but it can be ok with a few others. I remember trying it on those characters with Throw, it wasn't that bad. It screws other biotics so much though.
I wish TBs weren't such a joke damage-wise, it would make this ammo type much better.

I know, right? They were from the BSN too, and I happened to be in their party. I was rocking my asari Huntress on a tech squad using disruptor and at the end of the first match I said something like, "oh man! I swear all of my primes were overwritten before I could detonate them... I felt so useless" (and I was, because I ended last by a large difference).

Then one of them laughed hard and said, "so that's what you think huh?" And put disruptor IV on his slasher, again on a tech squad, for which I switched to my try hard QME and UUP gave us Reapers/Ghost.

I just ran around looking for something to kill the whole match as he was just murdering everything, even though the QME is my best class I hardly hit 160k whereas he scored 260k... I'm still trying to understand how or what happened :unsure:.

I'm assuming he'd shoot once to strip shields and prime for a TB (he was using the Wraith) and then warp to detonate TB and prime for BE... then clusters and blueboom... but that's just my speculation.

I used them on any kit that has Overload and, sometimes, the Asari Huntress for the Warp/Tech explosions.

They are far from useless. I use them often and would use them more if I don't go into lobbeis with adepts. I like using them for my Salarian Infil/ Indra build.

They're surpassed by a lot of other ammo types. I think they work decent on some biotics actually just not as well as warp or incendiary.

It only overwrites it though. What are biotics weak against? Shields. What's strong against shields? Tech bursts. You get an adept that can spam a detonator and you can have a tech burst followed by a BE. Problem is the warp round bonus and the fact that the character that has the highly spammable detonator, throw, also has warp which stacking better with incendiary.

I use disruptor (Talon X with power mag) on my Slayer. The shot will paralyze mooks, making enemies a nice quiet target for PD, which causes a TB. Very effective against Geth and Cerberus.

disruptor + falcon on a human or turian soldier is amazing. crowd control and outrageous aoe damage for mooks and carry a hurricane for bosses.
