The first video.
As you can see, this tactic is actually very good for keeping enemies the hell away, and watching the flank. And, if I'm worried I might be taking too much damage, I can just falcon punch until my shields recharge.
Fun stuff.

Interesting. To me it looks more like what you get doing Nova cancels--invuln frames. DR shouldn't account for you taking no damage at all unless it totals 100%. Maybe shields have something else to them. Do you have a vid doing the same thing with no blade armor?
I know for a fact that I do take damage if I don't use Blade armor.
I didn't video it cause it sounds pointless? But I can do that if you'd like.

Bookmarking this page so I can try this out on Friday when I get back to my Xbox. If this works, I'll love the Batarian even more, the silly racist alien.

So, first things first, here's some proof that it was all done on gold
Now, here's me taking a rocket to the face without blade armor.
Err, It looks like I have shields, but that's just because of the way I timed it. I can assure ya I run out of shields afterwards.
Here's me taking a shot to the face with blade armor on.
I have a tiny bit of shields left as you can see.
Now for the magic.
Here's me taking a rocket while using Heavy Melee without blade armor
Notice how I have more shields left over then I did with just Blade armor, even though I don't have it on right now
And here's me taking a rocket to the face with blade armor
Notice how I have a lot more shields then with either.
Now, since my blade armor is currently at 25% damage reduction, all this suggests is that since I take less damage with my Punch and no Blade armor on, that the DR I get is greater than 25%. I'm thinking it's either 30, or 35. As you can see, with blade armor, the amount of shields I get left over is pretty goddamn massive. Because of the way DR works, I personally believe maximizing DR for melee builds is probably a good idea, since it will increase your survivability by a large amount.
Have fun rockin' gold guys.
Edit:
Soo.. Good news everybody. Biotic bubble + Blade armor + Heavy Melee = Invincibility check this **** out.
Right before rocket
After rocket
**** YEAH!
Get yourself a Asari friend, and punch the **** out of an Atlas!
More fun stuff. Here's a video.

Oh, and finally. Here's me punching an Atlas to death with a little assitance from my Asari Friend.
The final Vid.
Good **** you got there

So, if Chuck Norris was in Mass Effect he'd be a Batarian. That's what I gather from this topic.
Makes sense to me.

Well Zenning as usual I am rewarded with fantastic information about my Batcrazy soldier. Glad I opened this thread, almost didn't cause I read your post/this post on gamefaqs.

Surely someone at BW would have figured out that would lead to situations where there'd be 100% DR?
Works for me, anyway.

Why the HELL is DR additive instead of multiplicative if effects can stack?

It's funny, but it doesn't work for Krogan who should too. Batarian's seem to be the only ones who can get true 100% DR.

Hmm, so they probably did add some kind of cap, but it didn't take into account the DR buff from batarian heavy melees.
Seems to be the case yea.
Which is perfectly awesome for me. It's not true invicibility, it's only invicibility when you're being really awesome.
