I use drop sets periodically even during bulking just to confuse the muscles into shock....killerass burns and pumps with these....now that im cutting i use that a little bit more toward the end of the workout to really fry the bodypart im working.....i think that while cutting it can bring out a little more definition

There will be effect whenever you use drop sets, unless you're using them consistently.  Personally, I get sore while cutting whether or not I use drop sets...but if you feel like you're hitting the wall to early during your heavy sets, it's a good technique to keep the intensity up.

Using them some of the time's better IMO, as a changeup to shock the muscles.

Just as good are compound supersets & giant sets, partials, negatives, etc.
