Argus is the best AR in the game.

QFT.  The Argus Turian/Quarian Soldier is such a ridiculous build.  Slap on stability and ammo mods and mooks drop instantly.  Bosses also take ridiculous damage.

If you die on an xbox 360. press the down button on keypad to consume a medigel and revive yourself.

On FWB when foot troopers fly up on the landing pad. chuck a lift grenade at its feet and instant kill anything that would have come up after it. (unsure on other nades havnt tried yet)

Oh I got another one! Marksman will instantly reset you guns clip without a reaload. So if you use a typhon with an extended clip, once you get almost nothing, hit marksman and the clip will instantly reset to full without missing a single bullet. Doing that combo with the right weapon damage mods you can kill any boss in a single go. I have used that combo many times on an atlas/banshee/floating crabs and even been able to kill a total of 3 brutes in one go-round.

You can lock scions into melee only, by charging or just moving close to him then backing up as he starts his melee, after he finishes flailing charge again and back away.

I'm pretty sure that the benefits of Marksman do NOT apply until you stop shooting, then start again.  So if you reload a Typhoon while firing, it doesn't increase accuracy or RoF.  However, the Marksman bonuses also continue to apply until a clip is empty, even if the power has ended.  Using this technique with some large clip weapons (Typhoon and GPSMG come to mind) you can basically always keep the Marksman bonus applied, as you will make it all or most of the way through the CD before the clip empties.

You can survive a phantom sync kill by hitting an ops pack right before it begins. I'm pretty sure the key is to have the second of invulnerability still active right as the actual "death" part happens, so this won't work on praetorian or banshee sync kills (which are long enough to be rescued with a missile). I think atlas syncs are also too long for this, but brute and scion sync kills might be fast enough to be rescued by an ops pack. It would be interesting to experiment.

I have my doubts about it not taking effect until you stop firing because I have seen the firing reticle reduce in size showing that accuracy has increased, as well as watching enemies armor drop faster, how ever I will confirm this when I get home from work. I just hope you arent right.

 If you use Tac Cloak to revive someone, you can pop off a power half-way through your standing up animation, just before the cooldown starts, and it has no effect on how long the cooldown takes.

I do this all the time. Revive to shadow strike, coolest thing ever.

In the same way, playing as a TGI with incediary, you can fire to prime enemies while cloaked followed by overload for explosion. Free FEs out of cloak.

 The conventional wisdom is that the word "factoid" means "a little truth."

A factoid is an untruth repeated often enough by the media, that the general public comes to believe it to be true. They believe it so thoroughly, it becomes very difficult to convince them otherwise.

So, the media turned the word factoid's definition into an actual factoid.

Maybe disregard that, I was thinking of a thread like this one, but that one of the trustworthy testers had weighed in with verification.  But now I can't find it, and it's not listed in any of the compilation threads as well.  I may have just elevated a random, unverified complaint (none of those around here!) to a confirmed bug in my head.

It has always astounded me how unobservant people are in this game.

I guess my marksman skills are just that good

You will get the heavy melee bonus (martial artist, rage, power/weapon synergy) even if someone else kills the enemy first, as long as your heavy melee manages to lock on to the enemy before it dies.

[Caratinoid]

Not sure if this always works but:
If you get killed while being humped by a husk you'll get back up after the animation without wasting a medi-gel if you just let that husk do his thing.

No, I mean the in-game damage bonuses. Killing blow is not needed to activate it as long as your melee was locked on when it dies. It's easy to test with krogans, who give a distictive laugh when going into rage mode.

A lot of rank 6 fitness trees have either weapon or power synergy, where if you kill an enemy with a heavy melee, you'll get a bonus to either weapon damage or power force/damage.

Didn't know that. Makes me less mad about people getting kill-steals when I'm heavy meleeing **** as a Batarian, though. If that's the case, I'm betting the melee damage from rank 5 applies as well.

[Whole Particle]

Does the ability to change avatars w/ only xbox-registered games count? (Would have responded in the master race thread that this is still possible, but it got locked.)

Indeed. If you're locked onto a target with falcon punch and someone kills it before you finish, all you miss out on is the points. You still get the martial artist / melee synergy bonuses from ranks 5 and 6.

Accuracy boosts immediately kick in but Rate of Fire boosts do not until you stop firing and begin firing again.

Except for on the Black Widow if you're firing it full auto for some unknown reason, then the RoF boost will show up.

Activate a hack, quickly back out of the hack zone, get credit for being in the hack zone even though you're on the other side of the map smoking a joint providing supporting fire. Make sure you're in the hack zone when you activate it though otherwise it won't work.
