 So I just made an account yesterday, have read many interesting threads on things I never knew about the game. 

Anyway, I play on 360, and I play a lot of ME3. I THOUGHT I was a good player until yesterday, but, I haven't really gotten to play the game with the bunch of crap I've learned from this site. About to run some Gold now, up fro some Plat later if anyone wants to play add me GT: UnitCrash. 

2 quick questions:

1) Wtf is the term "Shield Gate?"
2) How do you slide over cover? 

Although I've read a bunch of threads, none of them gave me clarification on these two items.

Thanks :happy:

Here's a thread explaining shield-gate, although it's a bit old now and you should be aware that the shield-gate on gold and platinum is no longer 100%.

To slide over cover - run towards low cover and when your character begins the 'getting into cover animation' release 'A' then immediately press and hold it again. Takes a bit of getting used to.

To slide over cover simply double tap the omni button when you reach it while sprinting.

Thanks! Do you happen to know what the Shield Gate was changed to? (That thread made an interesting read.)

I will have to practice it, I've done it accidentally but never really thought it was something that could be done purposefully, I thought it was a random ocurrence, tbh.

I will add both of you guys the next time I get on. I just got offline because I am going to bed.

Oops, sorry. Would have been more helpful if I had actually told you that too, I guess. The gates on gold and platinum are now 75%.

It is more than OK, thanks for taking the time to answer my nooby questions.

Also worth mentioning that player's shieldgate works a little differently; instead of the incoming damage being reduced, you are given a brief period of invincibility when you hear the sound of your shields breaking. I'm going off of memory here, so forgive any mistakes.

Player's Shield/Healthgate lasts 1s on Bronze, 0.5s on Silver, 0.1s on Gold, and 0.01s on Platinum.

Very good point FoP, it completely slipped my mind. Here's Eric Fagnan's post on the subject.

Thank you for that link, cato, and for the extra info FoP. I had never even noticed it, Only that you couldn't get dropped instantly - you would always get some slack at that last bit of your last health bar. But I had never noticed you became invulnerable.

I may not be on until saturday, but I'm always up for a game whenever I'm on


Yes, you get two windows of immunity, so you cannot die in less than three hits,(dot can go through), and the windows don't work as well on higher difficulties, on plat you get one frame, so it will stop bleedthrough, but not much else,

this is why enemies like mauraders are far more dangerous on high difficulties than heavy hitters like scions proportionatly, scions one hit your shields on most difficulties anyways, they need three shots, if you aviod one shot the scion cannot kill you, but the maurader does not give one flying F***, and will rip through your shields, and health, and can kill weaker kits in a single burst of gunfire,
