The mod expands on the powers your Commander Shepard possesses in the base game and adds 10 new abilities, including Ballistic Blades (great name for a band) and arc grenade abilities, among tons of others. The somewhat sameness of combat by the third entry is why the Bonus Power Packs mod is the perfect choice for the Mass Effect player looking to spice things up. That being said, many people I talk to still gloss over their time shooting reapers and harvesters in order to talk about what’s really important… which crew member you romanced (team Miranda here). By the time Mass Effect 3 was released, Bioware had already done so much across the series to bolster the excitement of combat to make it feel as captivating and smooth as possible.
