Having just obtained the weapon through a Spectre pack, I put it to use in a match on Firebase Condor using my Quarian Infiltrator.

What I found were a couple of bugs between the Harpoon Gun and Tactical Cloak.

- While charging the harpoon, Cloak would break before I could fire.
- When I was able to fire while Cloaked, the shot would not get the bonus to damage.
- After I fired while Cloaked, it would keep me invisible for several seconds afterwards but would then drop and I would be forced to deal with a long cooldown on Cloak.

This is not a bug, just a nuance of the functionality of cloak and charge weapons.

What you need to know is that cloak deactivates when you pull the trigger, but not when you release it. With weapons that charge (includes graal spike thrower, geth plasma shotgun, kishock harpoon gun, and arc pistol) you will not get the cloak damage bonus on a charged shot simply because you cannot charge a shot while cloaked. You can fire off a quick shot and you will get the damage bonus on the quick shot.

You CAN fire a charged shot while cloaked WITHOUT the damage bonus by initiating the charge before cloaking. Releasing the trigger will not cause you to uncloak.

You do not get the bonus because you initiated the shot before cloak was active (this same functionality applies to other abilities that modify weapon damage/accuracy/recoil such as adrenaline rush and marksman).

Thanks for the information. I've never used a charged weapon with a character that can cloak so it's all new to me!

Guess I won't be using the Harpoon Gun on my Infiltrator then.

I'm having similar problems, except it only happens every other charge. What happens is on the first shot I'll do charge -> cloak -> use ability(sabotage) -> release -> charge again -> uncloaked. Works just like how it would on the GPS, except now when I go back in to stealth again while having charged from that previous shot I would get instantly uncloaked. Even if I don't charge my 2nd shot while cloaked from the first time I'll still get instantly unstealthed. The only way to stealth charge again is to use sabotage again before another cloak. So now my sequence is charge/cloak/sabotage/release/sabotage/uncloaked/charge/cloak etc..... I know I didn't have this issue with the GPS, anyone else have gotten this problem?

w3etiki, there is a cloak bug that causes you to uncloak immediately without hitting anything. I'm not sure of the trigger yet, it's been happening pretty randomly for me, but once it starts happening in a game, it keeps happening.
