The male Quarian shares classes with his female counterpart, but he comes equipped with a different set of powers, including a new grenade type and a powerful support ability that allows the entire team to do more damage to a given target. Because of these new abilities, the male Quarian classes are a bit more offense oriented than the female Quarian classes.
The Arc Grenade acts as a more powerful form of Overload, and is able to strip shields and stun victims hit by the powerful electric shockwave it generates. Unfortunately, the limited ammo available for this power will require you to be more judicious in your use of the ability, but the Arc Grenade can be a game-changer when dealing with a large group of enemies.
The other major ability the male Quarian brings to the table is the Tactical Scan, an immensely useful power that increases all damage to the affected target while also de-buffing their movement speed. In addition to this, your squadmates get a holographic display showing their range to the enemy, the target is identified on their heads-up display, and they can even see what the target is doing. If you need to bring down a heavily shielded or armored target, this ability can come in very handy.
