Turian Biotics?

Nyreen was the only turian that used biotics. That was in the Omega dlc.

It's tangential to the campaign, maybe, but over in ME3's multiplayer, two of the six Turian kits have biotic abilities.

Yes, both in single player and multiplayer. As mentioned above, there is Nyreen Kandros from Mass Effect 3's Omega DLC but there is also Saren Arterius from the first Mass Effect. Turian biotics are uncommon, however, which would explain why we've seen so few. They also tend to be distrusted by the general military and are relegated to special units called Cabals, whcih are employed for key missiona.

There's a Vorcha soldier, engineer, and sentinel, but I'm not sure any of them have any biotic abilities.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing about the suits making it difficult. I had forgotten about any info from Tali about them or about salarians because I haven't played in years (wow), so thanks!

Aha, I guess I remembered right that he was a Sentinel I roleplay all of my MP characters, and my Turian Sentinel is Saren

The Sentinel has Cluster Grenades, which are multiple Lift Grenades. Lift Grenades only make sense if they are biotically charged by their thrower, so...

Thanks. Yeah, the lore doesn't say much about them, but I don't think it would make much sense if they didn't need a biotic user, because then there would be no reason why non-biotic classes couldn't use them, and more importantly for the lore, it would basically mean you can seal biotics in a can for later use

Huh, didn't realize the humans were that even. If the Paladin had biotics, that would make it as close to half as you can get, which makes sense considering half of the classes have biotics (and half also have tech and combat powers). And I never really realized that 4/5 krogan have biotics But yeah, it's probably not a great indicator for population %s both because of what you said and because of out-of-universe reasons to make the classes balanced (29/64 have biotics).

Not exactly on-topic, but I wonder if it's possible for synthetics to have biotics. Obviously they wouldn't acquire them in-utero or anything like that, but theoretically, they could control the necessary impulses to the eezo nodules in their bodies (placed there on purpose) much more precisely than any organic. A synthetic Biotic would be scary

In Citadel DLC, Shepard and Garrus (non-romanced) meet at the bar in the Silver Coast Casino.  Shepard tries to set Garrus up with a turian female who was checking Garrus out.  Also, Nyreen Kantros mentioned from the Omega DLC is both biotic and female.

Holy crap, Juggernaut with Biotic Charge would be so useful!

I think they were making fun of the fact that it took until DLC of the 3rd game to show any female turians (other species' track records are just as bad).

And a non-human female needs breasts because...?

I want that now
