  • christina norman is hot 

  • I played as the adept, absolutely hated the singularity power, not sure why, i just hated it

  • Yes Shepard release your hatred!!! turn to the Renegade side...

  • ADEPTS CAN BE PRETTY DAMN STRONG IF YOU GET BARRIER!!

  • Adepts suck in mass effect 1

  • @jordanbulldog dude what? Lift + Singularity = lol curbstomp in 99% of battle

  • @jordanbulldog adept is actually the best class in mass effect 1

  • This is all nonsense people!

    To become a real man...

    You must challenge the biotic god!

  • This guide is misleading. You can only truly control the battlefield if targets are unprotected.

  • @indigothecat Which a fair majority of it is, assuming you aren't playing on insanity.

  • @ENM173 The only difference between Insanity and Hardcore is that in Insanity, almost every target is protected, and in Hardcore, the majority of targets have protection.

    True crowd control only exists at Normal and the level below that. In Veteran, it's kind of a toss up, and really depends on the mission.

  • I wish you could really kill enemies without firing a shot, but in hardocore or insanity all enemies have armor, so most of your powers are useless, no big deal because you get warp ammo thanks to jack.

  • I'm gonna have so much

  • Alright guys I'm working on my first playthrough, and I'm a soldier (I have default Shep). On my second playthrough should I be a vanguard or adept? Or should I pick another class? Which ones the most fun?

  • @Sonofsweetness well if ur going as a hard difficulty probs not the vanguard, lower difficulty is fun to fly across the room tho. so either adept or vanguard for the biotic charge on the vanguard and the singularity, shock wave and the weird curving ball.

  • What's the song from the soundtrack they're playing? Starting at 0:13?

  • MY ADEPT CAN'T DO THAT?

  • the games too easy with adept and infiltrator. even on insanity

  • the games too easy with adept and infiltrator

    

  • ....IN OTHER WORDS, I GET TO PLAY GOD.....GOT IT!!

  • Adept band sucks

  • wait wat? thts a woman

  • Best class in the game, hands down

  • how does the adept class deal against armored/shielded enemies

  • @Pain0rDeath it doesnt

  • @Pain0rDeath Armor? Easy, throw a heavy warp on them, it damages armor with devestating power. Shields? Throw a singularity sphere on it and shoot it off. Then when it's off enemies will hopelessly fly around you.

  • lol i came here from a band called adept XD

  • I like adept, but I didnt like using any gunz at all. can I do that?

  • notice how none of the enemys have shields or armor

  • Real men play pinball with their opponents in mid-air.

  • Remember when classes for mass effect basically dictated which weapons you used most?

    Mass effect 2 ftw. I hope combat is the same in ME3, but without the shitty "stick to cover like glue" mechanic. I have died many times just because my character wouldn't get in or out of cover. Here's hoping for a more fluid cover system.

  • @Railware ME3 fighting mechanism is best i the whole series, i think, or if it is not it is same grade as ME2.

  • Omg, I was watching a music video of ''Adept'' and I were thinking this vid was something like Mass Effect trailer with Adept music, so dissappointed now lol

  • @Anzer201 do u mean the hardcore/metalcore band adept ?

  • @rofllolroflable haha yeah!!

  • I played as a vanguard an I thought that was a great experience, I have not tried the adept yet but I think I might do that today, tho my best class I think is the sentinel I think this class would be really good. I might just playthru again as an adept.

  • looks fucking brutal haha

  • I was really excited cause I thought this was gonna be to one of Adept's songs

  • what i love about adepts in ME2 is no fucking 60 second cooldown for everything. That was rediculous in ME1 and i'm glad they changed it

  • @theprophet113 you deserve a lot of thumbs up

  • how the fuck does his biotic powers reload so fast?

    mine take so long before i can fire them again

  • @mayrbek123 gotta have the fully evolved tree for nemesis/bastion for power cooldown, also the ship upgrade increasing power cooldown (unlocked after 2 or 3 power dmg upgrades?). Unfortunately adepts aren't a very good class in general in mass effect 2 thanks to the fact you can only cast one power at a time. vanguards and sentinels are much better biotic classes.

  • @mayrbek123 Because the person who is demonstrating in this video is using mainly Throw and Pull. those two powers tend to be the ones that reload the quickest. Especially if you have your biotic mastery ranked up entirely.

  • I want ADEPT the Band!

  • im like a fucking jedi commando with this class

  • I love the Adept; I've played as an Adept for both Mass Effect 1 and 2, and i will play as one for 3.

    They're cool because they're psychic

  • I came her to listen to Adept

  • They forgot how adepts have only 2 useful powers on Insanity.

  • @MrAoiSekai pull and throw have uses. they have a much faster cooldown and can get you back into the battle that much sooner

  • @Rockthedice But they're less helpful when every single thing has defenses.

  • @MrAoiSekai lol yea.

  • fuckin' ADDS

    

  • feels like the same thing some throw shit

  • fuck adds

  • Singularity is the most ridiculous power in the entire game. There's a reason none of you squad members have.

  • @Playstation72 Liara Gets it in ME3

  • @bandman232 I know. But no squad members have it in 2. Unless you count Liara in Lair of the Shadow Broker.

  • @Playstation72 That's exactly what im talkiing about.

  • Play Adept

    Play God

  • @KaminoProductions you do realize its only a game right?

  • wow this remembers me star wars!

  • @Farpafra gtho. don't compare ME to starwars, it makes me sick.

  • @KaminoProductions They're both great sci-fi franchises....

  • @PsychoWARD23 yes but ME has a superior story, and if anyone eevn peeps about starwars in the same sentence as mass effect, it is a felony. I am an fbi bodyguard who will sue him. This is my stuff.This is mine. THis is my paper to use the code to get free Cerberus network DLC. Understand?

  • @KaminoProductions .......Ummmmmmmm.. okay.

  • @KaminoProductions It's not a competition, asshole.

  • @KaminoProductions What is fuck's name are you taking?

  • @ShadowVampireFTW I'm licking magic frogs that i buy off ebay. They make me go crazy but give me an amazing euphoria.

  • Adept and soldier. My favorite classes.

  • what was doing jacob at the end of the video? oh,wait,dying as always

    what a lame character -.-"

  • I love playing as adepts, and I love all the other classes just as much, but seriously, I can't enjoy myself fully if I don't have an assault rifle. It just feels right to be carrying one as Shepard. :/ That's why I can't wait for ME3. Any class can carry any weapon, you're just gonna be limited to how many each class has.

  • @ClanJAX i hate not having assault rifles and sniper weapons it's such a pain in the ass i agree completely

  • I make my male shepherds soldiers and females adepts! :D

  • No bullets? blah

  • The Adept and the Vanguard are my favorite classes.

    Biotics FTW!

  • *Just made a sentinel*

    God dammit!

  • @ichibanjack I felt the same way when I continued my ME1 soldier as another soldier......

  • look at this noob playing the game on normal

  • @kenfaulkner no its actually 30

  • LOL!! Hate how people say adept is useless in Insanity, their actually just as good as any other class and "ThatAverageGatsby" has the proof! he has plenty of videos of him playing through insanity with ease. just learn to play :)

    p.s just started adept on insanity and is going well thanks to ThatAverageGatsby :D

  • Adept on hardcore or instanity difficulty level is useless. You have to bring down shield and amour with no real weapons to hand. They should have allowed biotics on Armor but reduce their power by 50%.

  • @KavaAhangar

    learn2play n00b lololo kthxbye

    ..just joking. but seriously, I've played with adept trough insanity with ease. You have teammates with lots of armor removing powers, squad ammo powers, nifty anti-armour pistol, and you'll get sniper rifle in the middle of the game.

  • @KavaAhangar Umm....have you even PLAYED an Adept character? Obviously you haven't, because if you have, you would know that Adepts have no problem bringing down enemy armor with warp. As for shields, play with squad members that have Overload or Disruptor Ammo, and shields shouldn't pose a threat either. If you do this, Insanity is pretty easy. Learn how to play noob -.-

  • i hate the way she says adept

  • id say the most exciting class there is, soldier got me boring at some point

  • Yeah right... try to kill husks on insanity this way...

  • That's why I say the adept is pretty much useless in some situations on Insanity. Sentinel makes it look easy as hell same goes for the vanguard infiltrator and engineer. Soldiers are easy but it just gets boring after awhile but it does teach you the basic firing mechanics and stuff for the first timers. So it's really useful to have core classes but then let them try the mixed combos later on.

  • @metallicust

    Husks are very easy to kill with adept - you don't even have to waste your ammo. Area lift/singularity + area warp. Or area push spam.

  • @metallicust it works just the same if you have armor piercing ammo. you just shoot them as they approach the singularity

  • Whats the max lvl for chars in mass effect 2 peeps?

  • @kenfaulkner1 60.

  • Charge > Singularity

  • "Now we've improoved Biotic powers for Mass Effect 2". Now we've nerfed Biotic powers for Mass Effect 2 would've been more precise.

  • @Radwar99 hmm, singularity is nerfed, we got no lift, but throw and pull arcing means cover is useless against you, i woudlnt say nerfed, just changed

  • @Whippenberg Biotic powers can't pass through shields anymore, it can only affect someone when it only has health left. In ME1 Biotic powers worked anytime, no matter what protections the enemy had. That's why I said they are nerfed. I can understand that shields or barriers could protect you from Biotics, but why armor? I just think Bioware went a little too far with their nerfing.

  • infiltrator all the way

  • You have to carry around that grenade launcher through the whole game?

  • @TheZeeya no there are 5 heavy weapons in the base game i think

  • looks like have to get this game...

  • @TaoriUTS you didn't yet?.... oh man.... It's like 2011 already.

  • I choose an adept, but I use the Pistol and sniper. I pretty much use the biotic powers the whole time, and just use a good sniper for long range, one shots. Even without assassination, it still owns, I use Heat Sync , and Cooldown or whatever and Heavy Caliber bullets, so It has the same COoldown/overheat, but much mre damage. IT WORKS!!! Try it

  • @TheRightOfMacaroni You know you're talking about the first game right? This is a trailer for the Adept in the SECOND game.

  • Christina Norman=Normandy?

  • @Grim1Tuesday2 No lol

  • I chose this class and the heavy warp is realy useful against those giant flying collector robots.

  • every class is " an incredibly tactical experience"

    lolwut?!?

  • omfg! adept is crazy ..damn my first play i choose soldier..

  • very feminin woman

  • @gezzaf wait o_o is a woman?

  • vanguard or adept?

  • @Spec0pleader sentinel

  • @reconz91 lol ftw

  • @Spec0pleader VANGUARD!!

  • @GloveMC :D

  • @GloveMC Nah, played all the classes and Sentinel is the best, especially on insanity. Having Warp, overload & Biotic shields are the top when everyone has protections. Take Miranda with you (also has warp & overload + Cerberus officer giving 15% squad bonus damage) and it's a cakewalk. Adept takes the palm when playing lower difficulty levels since few enemies has protections. Just send Shockwave after shockwave. Having Jack makes it even easier with her own shockwaves.

  • you cant play this class on the insane mode :(

    biotics are so useless against armor and shields

  • This looks realy interesting.

  • I'm just saying a DA origin mage will own this fucker's ass. Lol

  • too bad adept sucks on higher difficulties, what is this casual?

  • @tehgamer14

    Adepts dont suck on higher difficulties. You only need to use biotic combos like warp explosion.

  • @Pulthic warp explosion?

  • @SSSoM3 Use pull/singularity + warp.

    Like in this video:

    "/watch?v=i-pdNYasMX8"

  • i cant believehow much i was missing out when i played soldier. it was significantly harder than that looks!

  • Such a shame it doesn't actually work like that in practice.

  • @phatpat63 I am sure it did; I guess it was an older version.

  • @Naba008 At lower levels your cooldowns are to long to pull off the kind of combos she's doing here. And at high difficulties many, most, or all enemies have defenses that make them immune to almost all biotics until the defenses are taken down with weapons or squadmate powers. To demo a high level adapt on a low difficulty is incredibly misleading.

  • @phatpat63 The only enemy you can't damage as a biotic is a shielded one...warp and reave works on targets with biotic barriers and armored targets... Even then...singularity will drain shields from a shielded target...albeit slowly. So what was that about everything being immune to biotics? Maybe if you actually played as one you'd know better.

  • @sm753 Throw, Pull, Shockwave, and Singularity all do minor damage to shields, armor, and barriers instead of actually throwing, pulling, ect.. I'm glad a smart person like you took the time to point out that's nothing like being immune to those powers. Even though that has nothing to do with the fact that playing a high level adept on a low difficulty setting is the only way to get the class to work anything like it's presented in this BS marketing video. Try to comprehend what you read. Tool.

  • @phatpat63 The fact that you're whining and crying about something so insignificant makes YOU the tool. Thanks for playing.

  • @sm753 No, you're an idiot that is either trolling, or can't play mass effect at anything beyond "easy as fuck"

  • @KingGalby Seriously? You kids need to go back to Halo and stop whining about games being "too hard" and "misleading because this game is too hard."

  • @sm753

    lol you geeks crack me up XD

    stop arguing about it it's just a game its not that serious

  • @sm753 Try using those powers on a swarm of shielded enemies :) i know i did :)

  • adept is the "biotic master"with him i can kill enemies, and not only the easy one ,without using a bullet

  • a tranny spokesperson wasn't the best idea bioware.

  • how can you control them

  • adept all the way!

  • From my experience, adept is probably the coolest way to take out hordes of enemies. Singularity + Warp = sexplosion.

  • how effective are adepts against shielded enemies?

  • @Argintine3verest

    not that effective xD just bring garrus or miranda ( someone with overload )

  • they don't tell you how you have to get past the shield and armor before your biotic powers are even useful.

  • @PlayerVid It's pretty easy with the right squad and weapons, I usually go for headshots and use heavy warp while Kasumi overloads their shields. Then I'll either finish them off or torture them with singularity while Tali blows them to bits with her shotgun :D

    Point being, I usually have no problems, not even with YMIR mechs, just use singularity when they reach the health bar.

  • Adepts rook. I hated being a solider in the first one...

  • Nothing feels as good as pulling 4 enemies and pushing them all into oblivion...

  • which is better for tactics: adept or engineer

  • @kravn4smore Engineer

  • Ok the deal here is all class is unqiue and all are super good, it just depends on how you use them and what is your style like im going of Vanguard since I like close combats

  • Adept is soooo much fun! You got to get used to controlling your ragdolls though.

  • my order of classes

    best to worst

    Vanguard

    infiltrator

    Adept

    sentinel

    soldier

    engineer

  • @Lostprophetzzz That's funny 'cause I think the engineer is the strongest class. Only one that can really fight face-to-face with ANY enemy...well with a little combat drone assistance of course.

  • Fuck man, I want to play with adept!!!!!!!!!!!

  • so its like a jank vanguard?

  • pull combined properly with biotic slam is powerful

  • looks a bit overpowered^^

  • @xFroZeNbLadE HA HA HA... it is because those are very weak classes. On normal and easy, the adept is overpowered. However, the higher the difficulty the worse the class becomes. However, it is still very powerful once you level it up, but, if an enemy has shields or armor, your adept powers are mostly useless and on insanity mode everyone has armor, barriers, and shields. Minor bosses have two of those three (and of course HP) and major bosses can have all three! Making them almost immune

  • @BoydofZINJ

    Actually, Adepts are very powerful against enemies with only Barriers and health.

    ALL biotic powers, of any kind, deal significant damage to barriers, a fully upgraded throw can take out 25% of Harbinger's barrier on Hardcore.

    This is even more useful against Collectors on Hardcore and above because every Collector drone has barriers.

  • @Mashermat Why use throw to remove barrier's when warp deals a heck of alot more damage to them?

  • @Radwar99

    In hardcore mode and up, ALL enemies have armours, shields or barriers. Throw can stun many cannon fodder enemies even through barriers, and it has a very fast recharge.

    Warp has a huge recharge in comparison, so it's more useful than warp when facing many enemies that all have barriers (e.g. collectors)

  • @BoydofZINJ I've never seen Shields and Barriers, even on Insanity. 

  • @gassygunslinger I do believe minor bosses and/or bosses have both shields and barriers (as well as health).

  • Adepts suffer on insanity since every enemy has shields or armor or both. However, it is still fun, and once you get the hang of it... its still very powerful and can still control the battlefield - even on insanity mode.

  • @BoydofZINJ finally sumone other then me believes that lol

  • your saying the name wrong ya dunce

  • Adept is super hard mode on insanity.

  • the pc version looks so much better...

  • 360 all the way!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Ummm....Yeah it does? Better graphics and the precision of a mouse for one. Maybe if you had the computer to do it, you would think different :P

  • Yeah, PC > consoles in general.

    Modding, editing, macros, way better customization.

    Why don't you console users try listening to music on the internet while playing.

    Oh wait, you can't.
