Can you play as an Asari Ardat-Yakshi in multiplayer? I noticed that they've now added the Volus...

Yes, but Samara shows up every wave and insta kills you.

That awkward moment when you have an Asari Ardat-Yakshi and an Asari Justicar on the same team...

after the DBZ and The Legend of Chun Li movie trailers, I declair that professional cosplayers should be in charge of wardrobe for movies based on comic books, anime and video games.

Not all Ardat-Yakshi are evil. They are simply potentially very very dangerous and the asari as a whole aren't taking any chances. Not all of them are locked up in that monastery either. An evil one can simply cover her tracks by completely destroying the body after she's fed and moving to another system. Easy peasy. Morinth was getting away with it for 400 years and I doubt she was being very careful about it because she seemed pretty impulsive.
A good one can simply abstain like Samara does. Celibacy ftw!

Samara is not an Ardat-Yakshi. She is a pureblood Asari, whose children have a higher chance of being Ardat-Yakshi.

Cool idea.... would be nice to see an Asari class worth a damn in comparison to the newer, more powerful classes.

IMO, Ardat Yakshi powers should be:
Annihilation Field
Reave
Throw

I don't honestly see how an Ardat-Yakshi COULDN'T have Dominate as a power.

I didn't mean to imply that Samara was a "demon of the night winds", but simply that she abstains from sex.

Samara isn't an Ardat-Yakshi.
And they don't have to be evil, if they aren't in a monastery, and aren't dead, then they're breaking asari law and will be hunted.

I gave it a minute and tried to think of a better setup.
Nope, cant think of one. these three powers would be devastating if combined. especially if Ardat's version of reave or A.Field came with a Biotic Detonation booster. I think they should come with extra shields too. what's the asari norm, 500? 600? i think A.Y. class should come with 700 barrier. same health levels though.
Can you imagine an A.Y. Vanguard? A.Field, Charge, Shockwave or Reave, Charge, Shockwave would be a godly setup. Detonations everywhere. extremely OP but pfft, we could use a class like that with all the new stuff that came out. make them uncommon though! screw rares, everything under the damn sun is rare now. it's impossible to get anything you want at this point.

I'm the guy who apparently "ganked a Lautrec by teaming up with a ****ing Vagrant". What an interesting situation.

That's exactly what I said. Guess I wasn't clear...
