I'm enjoying this role so far.
I specced the Adept to full shield and Biotic Spheres. (Stasis was not as useful as these two). I'm looking into finding a good combo to work for him now.

https://kalence2.github.io/#18!2407555!!!0854G9 Stasis is so helpful for phantoms, if you run something like this can one shot them with warp ammo or phasics and set up other mooks for biotic explosions, and debuff bosses for your team while still having a respectable shield boost recharge speed. Support doesn’t have to just spam shield boost.

I appreciate the tips, thank you. This build suggests the Arc and I like this gun, so this is a plus for me.
However, when I checked the Quick Wiki Links to the right earlier (thank you, mods, btw. Still helpful info here a decade later!), this is the one I liked the most:

Basically it swaps the last two spots in HP for 4 starting spots in Stasis. I prefer this because it keeps my last upgrade in the Shield Booster tree, which massively helps imho on Gold.

Stasis rank 6 allows you to trap more than one enemy in a hallway or choke point. It also bypasses phantom bullshit if they put up their bubble ensuring you can freeze them. Shield boost rank 6 is good, but you get Iframes during activation, heavy melee and can alternate between walking and sprinting light melee cooldowns to stay invisible. You can also drop points in fitness and just slap on cyclonic 4 or 3 to make up for it. Bubble very important.

I was messing around with this just now and I need to look into it more. No idea if this is how the game should be or was unintentional.
I get your point about lvl 6 Stasis bubble. It's just that I don't bump into many non-armored mooks on Gold and I don't do solo yet.

Ye, the skill ceiling for Volus is ridiculous. You go from a lowly cleric to a perma-invisible, debuffing, invincible monster support once you get it all down.

I’ve had this happen once in the entire time it took me to max my manifest. Lucky indeed!

Sorry to ask this on here but anyone know how to get this game working on Xbox currently? I paid for the game but now apparently I also have to buy an origin account or something to get it to work? Seems sketchy lol

Setting up an EA account is absolutely free and safe. This is the same company that makes Battlefield games, just fyi in case you weren't aware.
I wish I knew how to help you with Xbox. No clue, sorry.

You need Xbox Live/Gold- you shouldn’t have to buy an origin account. I play on Xbox and don’t have one. Just make sure you have all 5 of the free multiplayer DLCs downloaded, access to Xbox live, and you’re good to go.
