This came up towards the end of a thread a few weeks back but I can't find it now. I'll keep the OP updated as replies come in.

 

1) Ballistic blades + Wraith

2) Warp + Hurricane 

3) Warp + Talon

4) Flamer + Lancer (or any other self-regenerating ammo weapon). Kind of a special case but I'll include it.

5) Jugg heavy melee + Reegar

6) Shadow strike + Claymore

7) Biotic charge-->nova + Claymore

8) Concussive/AP arrows + Graal spike thrower

9) Batarian brawler biotic charge + Kishock

10) Tac scan + Widow

Lancer and Flamer. You're literally just alternating cooldowns.

Shadow Strike + Claymore (Cloak then Claymore + Shadow Strike + Claymore)

 

BC/Nova + Claymore (the reload animation might be a bit longer than the power animation --> reload cancel during animation)

 

Concussive Arrows/Armor-Piercing Arrows + Graal Spike Thrower (number of charges = 3 = magazine size)

Reload hiding is for scrubs. Real N7 operatives just stand there and enjoy the Ravager blast while waiting for the damn weapon to become useful again.

Didn't wanna break you, but... It works with any gun and any power that has an animation. It is much easier to pull off if the RoF of the weapon is low and the animation length of the power long, though.

Also, it works with other kinds of animations at times, like dodge ones. Not consistently though, at least not for me.

(Hi guys, I'm back.)

 

It's not rocket science, really. Pick any weapon with reasonably low ROF and any power with casting time that's non-instant and not much longer than the weapons reload time (that's RC'd reload time if you want to combine hiding with canceling.)

 


2) Warp + Hurricane

 

Reload hiding with the Hurricane? I want to see someone pull that off.

 

EDIT: Damn you, Deerber! It's the first time I post in months and you ninja me?!? Come on, man. :lol:

"You have to be in Origin beta to talk to marksmad_N7".

 

The message drove me crazy the other day xd. And I have no idea. I'll catch you if you are online! I'm in origin beta now.

It may seem like a rage gel but really I just meant to reload cancel.

It may seem like a reload cancel but really I'm just trying to anticipate the moment I go down.

It drives me crazy too. Damn Origin. I got in the situation where I could talk to exactly half my friend list and choose which set of bugs I suffer from.

^ Didn't they fix that? Maybe it's just me being lucky but for the past 2-3 days I could chat with both beta and non beta users and vice versa (I use the beta.) But then my alt+tab stopped working and origin started crashing more often at about the same time. Gotta love Origin, fix one problem and create 7 new ones in the process.  <_<

AFAIK all powers can be used to hide the reload animation.

 

What bothers me is that pesky Drells can also hide reloads with their kungfu kicks (light melee) whilst the Honorable Krogan Headbutts do not :(

Ditto on the alt-tab, I thought it's just a random thing.

I had that alt-tab issue and a lot of issues with origin a while back. Then, I decided to disable origin in-game and everything started to work fine.

Have you managed to hide the reload into Drell kicks reliably? If so, it might be due to the longer animation...

No idea why it works for Drell light melee (I doubt it has anything to do with animation times).

 

AFAIK it is very reliable (on par with using powers for reload-hiding), but due to my unsurpassed Krogan aiming skillz (and the High Lord's blessings) I don't have to use it that much. It's really great for those "how the heck did I miss that shot?" moments though, just kick to stagger the enemy so your next shot cannot miss.
