I miss this Asari costume from ME3.
Overall I think the outfits in this game pale to ME3 MP.
Disagree. While you are exchanging fire with those bullet sponge enemies, I'm using backlash to reflect back at them while simultaneously protecting myself from counter attack. Often Annointed, Observers and even Nullifiers will take themselves out in one go (or at least 75% of the way there) when you spec backlash for reflected damage. And I've saved my whole team many times by reflecting the Ascendant's shield popping energy sphere back at them.
Also, I play Asari Sentinel so by the time my backlash is ready to break, my energy drain power is off cool down and ready to bump my shields back up if they had been popped before I activated the backlash shield.
Sometimes it feels like Backlash/Energy Drain is actually OP for keeping you alive. So much so that I use it on my single player Ryder.
