Player Notes

• The rank 5 Squad Bonus evolution applies only to NPC squad members and not to Shepard. There is possibility for confusion, as the similarly named "Squad Bonus" evolutions of squadmates' class powers apply to the entire party including Shepard and also the owner of the power.
• The time dilation gained from zooming through the scope of a sniper rifle stacks with the similar effect granted by the Sniper Rifle Concentration Mod. The effect has no cooldown, so it can be taken advantage of as often as desired by unscoping and rescoping your view. This can be a useful technique when firing sniper rifles with multiple shots in the magazine such as the Black Widow, Krysae Sniper Rifle, or M-97 Viper, as the time slowdown does not otherwise last through every shot in a single clip.
