Sorry, but There's a disconnect somewhere. I haven't used a lash character in ages, so I'm Batguarding. I took the build/play from Shadrach    nearly three year old platinum solo.

 

Here's the thing: he was able to use lash to detonate his incendiary ammo acolyte. There clearly were FE explosions.

 

When I try the same thing, nothing happens. Moreover, the power combo wiki doesn't show lash as a detonator. 

 

So have they nerfed lash? And if so, isn't the detonate evo #4 pretty much wasted? 

 

Plus I find phantoms pretty much block lash anyway, despite evo #6. Seems like three in lash is pretty much all there is.

The wiki is not necessarily a reliable resource on a variety of Mass Effect 3 related topics.

 

Detonate evolution at rank 4 is a combo multiplier for biotic explosions only.

 

The three tech combos can be detonated by any power that does direct damage.

 

Phantoms are blocking it because it is a projectile power.  Use a rapid fire weapon or shotgun to get them to flip, then hit them with Lash mid flip if you are having problems with the power block bubble.

 

edit: forgot to mention that FE's are primed after a bit of DOT, so they aren't ready to be detonated immediately after being hit with the ammo typically.

Speaking of lash, I need to lash out on something, my waffle has fallen to the floor and it can't get up. 

 

Also I don't use lash enough. How does the shield thing on the 6th evolution work?

^^^^^^^^^^ when you lash something like a marauder or a centurion...it goes thru their shields / barrier and sends em flying.... if you dont pick that option...when you lash them, they shake it off until you remove their shields / barriers

What lash evolutions do you take to get that?

Increased Detonation, DOT, and Penetration Evos, with Max Fitness, no doubt.

Lash can prime for BE and detonate both BE and tech combos, but only on unarmored enemies. You also need your Acolyte shot to completely strips the enenmy's shield, or they won't be primed for a FE.

I would like to add to this that Lash is useless against armoured enemies (wont even Detonate things with it, regardless of current defense type). And only detonates/primes vs health UNLESS the Shield Penetration evo is taken, then it will both prime and detonate against shields (though the priming window is much reduced, much like the other factors).

 

Lash IS a detonator, it's just one of the junkier ones. It suffers from a lot of the same issues Lift Grenades have (Just imagine if Lift Grenades detonated non-health things as well :o Imagine the KroSent then :o )

Don't forget the 'Boss' passive, with boni for duration and damage

 

(I'm also out of likes again, dammit)

Tech > biotics > physical conditioning.

 

Just a fact. :P

 

In terms of lore, we're looking at a society where tech is essentially everywhere. So being able to hack and interact with everything around you is a massive bonus. Biotics are powerful, yes, but as James Vega said (the *******), biotics are unpredictable and the vast majority of people don't have biotics which would be usable in a large firefight. Tech on the other hand.. you need training, sure, but once you've had that anyone would be able to do it, given the right equipment. Again, we're looking at a society where tech is everywhere. It's also useful for fighting Geth if you get attacked by the toaster army. You can also turn invisible using technology in the ME universe = instant win.

 

In terms of gameplay, tech is overall better than biotics imo. Tactical cloak is one of the best powers in the game, hands down. Biotics just can't compare. :P

An other techie nerd mad because he doesn't have super magical powers. :P Biotics is just pure awesomeness, it's the poetry of the universe, the print of God... it's not even comparable to any of your boring scientific gadgets.

 

Who need to hack a door when you can simply teleport through it like the Fury ?  B)

I think the whole teleporting thing is an issue of gameplay vs lore, a bit like biotic charge. :P

 

Also being open and close doors is better than teleporting through them.

 

You could shut enemies in the doors and therefore use doors as a weapon.

 

Biotics couldn't do that because they're stupid assholes

 

They've missed out on an effective weapon there.

This is a case of what is essentially telekinesis vs ice powers, fire powers, electricity powers, invisibility, turret spawn and the ability to interact with all the tech around them... there's absolutely no competition :P Tech > biotics.
