Creating this thread based on speculation about the rumored DLC character.

News feed in Illium mention a thief named Kasumi.

Power Damage Modifiers vs Resistances:

• Warp, Reave: x2 armor, barrier
• Overload, Shield Jack: x2 shields
• Concussive Shot: x3.5 barrier (note this is a low damage power)
• Incinerate: x2.4 vsarmor
• Incendiary Grenade: x2 vs armor
• All other biotics: x1.5 barrier
• All other tech powers: x1.5 shields

[/list]

Check out next to Overload - an ability called Shield Jack.  Sounds thiefy and techy -- like for an engineer/infiltrator type.  One may argue that the dev actually meant Energy Drain, but I do not believe that said Dev would make that kind of mistake.  So, I am inferring from this that this is a special ability of the upcoming DLC character.

Then again, Chris Priestly did do the whole New ass Effect forum avatars for ME2 Game owners thread title thing.

More on the arguement that Shield Jack ≠ Energy Drain -- I believe having a x2 multiplier on Energy Drain would be greatly overpowered as the user recieves that energy to replenish shields.

Energy Drain used to be called Shield Jack. We changed it late in the project so we often make that mistake. I'll ask Christina to update her post.
