 Such a powerhouse character but you rarely see him pugging that much anymore. Also some other easy mode classes like the Asari Vanguard are fairly rare in pug lobbies now. I could almost understand on UUP as squishy as the characters are but rare even on uug in my experience.

Image IPB The asguard is my signature kit! (says a lot about me if the kit is considered easy mode Image IPB)

I do see what you mean though; I hardly ever see drelldepts - but when I do; they're always well-played.

Honestly I think it's just that there are so many other kits to play. In the case of the adept class; buffing singularity made a big difference. I have a friend who sticks to the vanilla human adept because it's powerhouse enough. Personally I love my asari, but we're all different. Image IPB

There are also so many wonderful adepts to play (unlike other classes that just have mainly boring kits and only one or two good ones).

Yeah you don't see them much. Probably because there are a lot of new players in PUGs these days.

I ran him earlier on UUP, he's very powerful on platinum. Perhaps some pugs aren't familiar with this character, who knows. But I love this guy, one of my main adepts. He's actually got some great survivability when you max out fitness and slap on an adrenaline mod 3, he's not the squishiest character out there.

Some people just can't handle the pure awesomeness of the drell

Actually, good point. New players tend not to have grenade capacity, and nowadays grenade capacity is like bread and butter.

I can't drell too effectively. Unless he's the infiltrator.

Well you know as of the last DLC...


Image IPB

So all things being equal... only one in eighteen or so lobbies is likely to have one.  :D

Why walk when you can run?  Literally.

Running is hard work, and walking is so much easier.

Fantastic metaphor that made actually.

I was hoping you'd say "why die when you can live."  :)

I know what a powerhouse he is and even I don't use him that much. He's kinda boring IMO. I prefer the Justicar as my goto Reave kit...

He is rather squishy. PUG's probably would have a tough time keeping him alive. Plus not all of the them have maxed out Grenade-capacity gears.

Also, this. I rarely come across drelldepts. Even rarer when they are competent. It's a shame really.
More grenades for me then.

Only if you use the Crusader and Javelin like I do.

Grenade Capacity is a waste. Warfighter is enough. Equip Harrier + Warp Ammo and go nuts. :D

He's always been a rarity in pugs. Just like Salarians...

I don't do it any justice when I run it. I'm much more confident with the Drellguard.

I find the drell and the majority of non-vanguard grenade spammer classes extremely boring, but I don't know if that's what the general, widespread pug opinion is or not.

I've actually been wanting to do that, my Javelin is stuck at 2 though, I'd probably use a Widow instead.

The curse that is bad Juggs is why good characters never see the light of day for some pugs.
