 I have the habbit of using a power right before going in cover. When a grab is intended:crying:(the few times i remember to try)

FBW is still a great place to rack up grabs, I got so fed
up with slowly accumulating them that I sent my Krentinel
to White and got the remainder (50+) in once bronze match.

Only true scrubs like me go onto platinum with the juggernaut and melee everything to get up to 1,000,000 melee points. Suck it Token, until you are up to my scrub level don't even think of claiming the title of scrub king.

1m melee points is easy to get if your a Krogan

+1.  Krentinel ftw.

Agreed, that is also my preferred way to do it. I am strangely addicted to grabs, though. Whenever it looks reasonably safe to do so, I find myself sprinting towards those counters and fences.

This has of course got me killed a couple of times on higher difficulties. Just shooting it through cover is certainly faster. So it is basically stupid - but whatever, it´s fun and that´s what floats the boat after all.  

Same here.  Both on the grab addiciton, and getting killed for it.

When I needed it I did Geth in London with the kroguard. Plenty of chest-high walls for your groping pleasure.

I also like when grabs magnet enemies running away. Bit of karmic justice, that. Pity none of them are the actual perpetrators of instakill bs.

250 grabs is a lot of grabs. Too many one might say. It always ends up as the last combat mastery challenge.

Lmao! I remember those days. I have 3128 of them logged now. And those are only the ones that show up on N7HQ.

Dagger, lower area is the best place I've found for grab farming. It's actually good for working on three things at once. Grabs, Melee and Abominations which are tough to get often for the Reaper challenge.

Yup, farming grabs .. i used a level 20 TGI in a UUB which turned into Vancouver Geth. The air ducts by both extraction zones are ideal for them .. all I was really focused on.

I used the TGI so I wouldn't ever have to worry about anything other than getting as many as possible

Vancouver Geth is also my go to map for farming grabs, except I use a lower level AIU instead of the TGI. She can move very fast to and from the air ducts. :happy:

I prefer solo farming as accumulating grabs during matches is difficult because decent team mates usually kill the enemy before you get a chance to perform that grab.

I'm about to get my 3rd Combat Mastery without even trying to grind the challenge. lol

I'm waiting on grabs atm.

And yet you still modestly deny being a pro
I had to grind really quite hard to get my 1st Combat Mastery; I think I had 2 grabs total whilst the rest of the combat mastery sub-challenges were complete. I think the problem was that I used to always keep a distance from the enemy, instead of occasionally diving in for close combat.

I love the Batarians in MP, using their Melee attack is too damn fun, especially the Batarian Vanguard

Scrub confession time...

I hate the grabs, but I hate seeing Combat Mastery sitting there just waiting for grabs even more. So I farm 'em when I find myself approaching the 1,000,000 melee points. Preferred spot is White Reaper SIlver. Back ammo box. You can roll up 70 grabs in under 15 minutes, then fail the objective due to time on wave 3. Combined with whatever grabs I accumulated during the rest of Combat Mastery, it'll take me 3 games and it's done.

I prefer Giant myself. The strategy is simple, make slow laps around the map prioritizing grab targets. Giant has so much cover that you can grab enemies over, and Cerberus loves to utilize such cover.

Once you spot one, you have to move in quickly, look up like you are going to vault cover, and watch for the grab indicator.

The most grabs I have managed to nail in a single match soloing is 146 against Cerberus on Silver. If you only kill low level infantry units, then that is all that will respawn. Focus on basic troops as they eat up the least of the budget and allow you to get the most grabs. It's a little tricky when dragoons and phantoms hit the field, but keep in mind you get an immunity frame during each grab. So long as you are in the grab animation you can tank just about anything with low health, even a grenade.

Hope that helps.

Grabs are not just the funnest part of the game--although they are--they're also often a lifesaver with no shields.

Grenades are the grindy part of combat mastery.

Grenade Capacity, Warfighter, Shock Trooper plus Inferno grendades on the Batarian Soldier... shouldnt be long if you spec the inferno grenades right...

Easy farming grabs. Dagger has a sweet spot for rolling them up.

There's a nice spot on white for getting them, too, though I've not intentionally tried to farm them.  It's the spot I go to at the beginning of extraction wave while the rest of my squad dies at the LZ so I usually get at least one grab on white games. 

I've gotten my melee kills two or three times over but never finished the grabs.  But I'm addicted to melee Huntress and just fell in love with the flamerless Melee Geth trooper, so that makes sense.
