I once killed a brute with pull. ![]()
Lately, my favorite way to kill phantoms is with human engineer heavy melee. It's dangerous and you gotta drop them to half health first, but oh so satisfying getting that last hit with melee.
This happened to a friend today, he shot a Swarmer and got an Assist medal.
We figured out that my Arc Grenades thrown at Ravagers were priming the Swarmers inside who hadn't popped out yet. So they were tagged by my grenades but immune to actual damage at the time. When he shot them it attributed the kill to Arc Grenade.
That's cool - but mine was a lone swarmer sitting on a wall. I wasn't aiming for it but aim-assist decided it was much more important to shoot a stationary swarmer than a brute...
you can kill phantoms with tac scan?
im gonna tac scan all those bloody phantoms
try flipping around and using the volus bubble against tactical scan you bloody phantom basterds

You're saying it isn't? Brutes are the least of my worries when swarmers are around

It was a stationary swarmer - you know, sometimes they end up standing on a wall and just looking at you...
I suspect kills like this are caused by an enemy dying to the damage caused by ammo, with the kill being attributed to the last thing that hit the target (tac scan in this case).
I killed a scumbag prime with Tac scan back in July, Mako can confirm it.
This is indeed what happens with kills like that.
Tactical scan doesn't actually do any damage and just for the record, Supply Pylon actually does some damage.

It was looking at you? That's deserving of all my stickies, and a sabotage> shoot combo just to be certain. Forget the brute. Creepy little bosh'tets need to die.

Well. Um. Rest easy, friend, it did, indeed die.
(and I got 2 assist points for it).
Sorry for bumping this thread but I just had something similar happen to me and didn't wanna make a new one.
So FB Condor, my Quarksman is on the hill raining down hate and discontent on Cerberus troops while a Drell buddy of my was on the lower platform to the left of the hill running around and throwing grenades like a dodge ball player on speed. But I digress. So an Atlas notices my buddy and starts going after him, and I decide to assist him with my Saber. Then I spot a couple of Phantoms coming up from the drop zone. I activate Marksman, take one of them out and do some damage to the other but run out of bullets and have to reload.
Then after getting back into the fight, I tac scan and try finishing the injured Phantom off but can't hit her because she's hiding behind the Atlas (who was still going after my buddy and was mid way up the stairs) and I didn't have enough penetration. Well, since the Phantom was a no-go, I started shooting the Atlas. I take him out, he explodes and kills the injured Phantom, I take a look at the kill-feed:
TheShadyEngineer [ Tactical Scan] Phantom
By god it was glorious. ![]()

Congratulations.
This way you could "kill" anything with Tactical Scan on FB Glacier Hazard . . . if you time it right and keep the swarm angry enough.
The Reactor should work, too. Anyone tried it?

+3
1 for the glorious kill, 1 for quarksman, and 1 for using the proper weapon on him
I'm going to tac scan and lure more things next to dying atlai/atlases(?) with this knowledge
