      My Infiltrator got that as part of the spectre class I think...."Unity" is the power, and I'm pretty sure it was the spectre class...

          Ugh, I accidently automatically put 3 points in "Charm" instead of Intimidate...I'm only 2 hours in so I'm just restarting...

          Let this be a reminder, be careful what you level up with, especially if you're on your 2nd time through. I keep 6 back saves but I didn't have one without charm...D'oh!

          I know it's stupid, but I'd rather spend a bit of time re-playing than feel like I gimped my guy.

            I have Ashley, Aiden, Garrus, Wrex and that Quarian girl that's fascinated with ships. I don't want any spoilers, I just want to know if I've missed the points where I could add people through side quests or whatever.
            You're only missing 1 person, not 2.

              I don't know why I did either...i think just to make sure the name was separate from text

              Unity has saved me a few times...nice to be able to bring them back to life!

                How many of you make use of the parties helmets? I tend to go around with Wrex and Garus wearing their helmets since they look cool to me.

                  Yeah unity is great, it really helped me at crucial times.

                  If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                    Did you exit the level up screen or something? I never tried after exiting but you can erase all the points you allocated towards certain skills after leveling up by pressing the X button.

                      I did a mission with Wrex and Garrus with all three of us with our helmets and we looked like a cool *** team that would kill anybody.

                              Well sounds like I should wait until after finals to get this game, sounds too addictive.

                              I absolutely loved KOTOR (one of my favorite games of all time) so I am looking forward to this. I don't really know much about the game, but is most of the combat with guns then I take it?

                                it's not that bad, i'm almost back to where I was at...going with vanguard instead of full biotic, I wanted something different than just a pistol. I found myself living in "Alt Land" like Terry mentioned, just a lot of different options to try. Don't usually get like this on a regular game (non MMORPG), but it's cool!

                                I've all ready noticed some differences (getting things I didn't when I was charming), so it's pretty fun...

                                This is different and fun (main plot aside) when you have a different background, different way to deal with things...
