An asari commando on Noveria.
Asari commandos are powerful asari biotics who form the elite of the asari military. Often in the maiden stages of their lives, they usually fight in small groups using guerrilla tactics.
Some asari commandos were among the first to be chosen as Spectres. They may serve as bodyguards to prominent asari, such as Matriarch Benezia. Commandos also carry out mercenary work; Nassana Dantius has Eclipse commandos stationed at her towers. Urdnot Wrex mentions battling a commando called Aleena.
Asari commandos are some of the toughest organic foes in Mass Effect. Equipped with barriers, armor, good health and lethal biotic abilities, they also seem to improve the abilities of nearby units in a similar fashion to Geth Primes.
Commandos dress in distinctive brown uniforms and are usually armed with shotguns or assault rifles. They are considered amongst the finest individual warriors in the galaxy, comparable to Krogan Battlemasters.
