You just can't zoom in with them. A high-level shotgun with no training at point-blank range can still clear out a room.The button that said "Cannon" on the vehicle-controls page didn't help? That page also notes that you can zoom with the left trigger, and zoom MORE by tapping the right thumbstick while zoomed, which few people appear to have noticed. While ragging on the manual is always good fun, most of the stuff I've seen people complain about is actually in there.Your Machinist has a bunch of shields because one of her skills (at work, but you can find this on BioWare's boards somewhere) increases her shields in addition to serving as a tech power. Electronics, Decryption? Something like that. It's a great skill. My Sentinel is using it to stay alive in fights.As I recall, more points heals you more, and if multiple people in the party have First Aid, the effects stack. I don't know how they stack (total the health healed or total the points to generate the new equivalent score or what), but I know that they stack somehow.It does. At very high levels with the right upgrades, it's almost dead-still, and even at low levels, it's almost dead-still when you fire up Assassination.Ditto.</blockquote>
