Mass Effect 2 Samara companion guide: stats, powers like Throw and Reave, and loyalty ability.
Stats:
- Health: 240
- Barrier: 250
- Weapon Damage Bonus: +18%
- Power Recharge Time Reduction: -25%
- Available Weapons: Assault Rifle, Submachine Gun
Powers:
- Throw Field (Level 4)

- Heavy Reave (Level 4)
Power Details:
- Throw is effective against swarms of weak organic enemies like husks.
- Leveling Pull is not highly recommended.
- Reave is an enhanced version of Warp. It deals damage over time, but with bonuses, it inflicts more total damage, stuns enemies, and nearly doubles the user's health while regenerating it.
- Against defenses like Armor and Barrier, Reave's damage is applied very quickly or instantly.
- Choosing Heavy Reave is better for quickly defeating strong, single enemies, typically bosses who possess Armor and Barrier.
Tips
- Samara's access to assault rifles provides her with superior personal weapon damage compared to other biotic companions.
- Her loyalty ability is what makes her unique. Once loyal, Samara is the optimal choice for tackling Barrier and Armored bosses, or for missions against Collectors. She can manage crowds with Throw and powerful single targets with Reave.
