It does have a nice benefit of being a low cooldown power that will activate their dodge. It can be an easy way to slow them down while you set them up for cluster grenades or reave -> bubble


There is a better solution for that though, good ol' Venom takes care of that.

I'm still at a loss about all the pulling going on. Is this recommended for male or female characters, don't mind my non-native simple-heartedness.

 

Both genders should feel free to Pull all they want  ....the drell is a male..I think..Also, feel free to Pull in public ...lobbies all you want ....don't just Pull in a solo ...that's kinda selfish..

Not a big fan of pull myself, mainly due to the limited amount of units it can be used on, had it worked on those soulless Dragoons I'd love this power though.

 

In my opinion, Pull is only good with fastest cooldown and evo 6 for even faster recharge speeds. Because being able to pull an instant Biotic 6x6 combo in under 1 second is too cool to pass up and makes me feel like a true Jedi (that, and if you Pull more then one enemy, that's more then one 6x6 combo doing great area dmg to a boss or other enemies that may be around). Why if I spec into Pull, I either max it out, or drop it entirely.

Throw is better. I totally forgot Pull is a projectile power, too.

 

The Justicar confirms again that pull is an Abomination to the Godess. The maiden have been instructed not to do it under penalty of spanking.

Nah, the damage is done now. Damn the Maidens! All the Matriarch wanted was fried eggs when we passed by.

Pull + Throw on a single character would be amazing against Cerberus.  Terrible against every other faction, but just for being able to throw enemies off the map at will against that one faction, it'd be worth it.

I used to agree with you 100% in theory, but trying to see an actual difference in-game when dropping down to 4 ranks was more or less impossible. Mooks die in the direct explosion anyway, and the difference in AOE damage is negligible. Again, this only applies to the Justicar. And in reference to Catastrophy's comment above, my Justicar is obviously a very, very naughty girl.  :lol:  :P

I'm using 3 Points of Pull on my Justicar, only to steal Guardian Shields. --> so they are more deadly!

On very rare occasions for a quick Pull -> Reave combo.

 

Question to all that Area Pullers:

Pull (4) Radius does not seems worth to me, because 2.5 diameter don't let me pull two enemies at once that often (they have to stay shoulder to shoulder). And on spawns and choke points it is better to set up a sphere.

I could never recognize that theoretical double BE for myself, nor did I saw it in a video.

So why is Area Pull that popular. :huh:

If two primed enemies are within range of the same detonator, there will only be one detonation.  That's why Chain Overload is such a great detonator, because it hits each primed enemy separately.  It's just another example of why tech > biotics.

So there is no need for Pull (4) on the Justicar, or do I miss something?

On the Drell Vanguard, I get used of it with Cluster Grenades Shrapnels.

I don't think this can be answered objectively. If pull fits into your "rhythm" consider it. You can pull often two mooks, then, be it husks or cannibals nomming over their fallen. On gold it's pretty useless to me in the later waves.

No, there is. With Pull at rank 3 I don't think I've ever lifted more than one mook, but with rank 4 I rarely lift less than 2 unless they are literally on their own - so it more or less doubles my dps on mooks. And I cannot in any way, shape or form agree that it's useless on later waves on Gold. There are mooks on every wave, and when I play, they go BOOM!

 

SMR's point about Chain Overload still stands, though, and is one of the reasons I follow a policy of "If it moves, Overload it!" Nightman's sig always makes me laugh because of that. I've completed Tech Mastery 44 times on my main a/c, and Overload completion 45, naturally. I guess I am that guy!  :lol:

That's why I say it's not objective - different people have different rhythms and playstyles and target priorities.

What the hell?  A serious discussion is taking place....here?   .....Honestly,  my opinion is you either spec Pull up to rank 4 radius ..or you dont spec into it at all.  Using Pull/Reave on 1 target is a waste of time..I think.   To answer Nico_Wolf...actually Salarian Master Race did   ..with area Pull...even if 2 mooks are standing a little apart...the Pull will snag em both..then you hit em with Reave..you get one explosion...then just walk away cuz Reave will end both of them. Radius Pull is best used against Cerberus & Collectors...It's rough against Geth..but still usable in the earlier waves...It is too much fun as  Catastrophy put it..to use Pull when cannibals are munching on each other...plus..husks seem so helpless when they are floating around..I kinda feel bad when I Reave em for that boom.

Absolutely agreed on that. 

 

That's partly why most of my opinions are prefaced with if using an Acolyte as primary, and only in reference to the Justicar. So if you play the Justicar the way I play her, with an Acolyte and Cryo Ammo and absolutely nothing else, then 4 ranks in Pull will yield the highest fun per death ratio in the whole game, all the way up to extraction. I usually bring a Tempest with me too, but even if I'm left soloing waves I rarely use it.
