How to unlock the Damping Specialist achievement

    Damping is a skill that is unlockable by an Engineer or Infiltrator Shepard as well as Garrus and Tali.

    You NEED a target to unlock this achievement. During combat you can cast Damping against an enemy and then wait until it recharges.

    Alternatively a quicker way to do this is to cast Damping on the Citadel Rapid Transport terminals. Once you reach the Citadel you'll find orange terminals that let you fast travel around the Citadel but they also count as targets for Damping. Simply save in front of one cast Damping and then reload your save to cut down on the time it takes for your ability to recharge.

    When your team mates cast Damping it counts toward the 25.

    EB89AUThanks for the guide, I chose a soldier class and can’t use bionics. Glad to know team mate attacks count!

    LaTrickster2Does it count if you have squad powers set to All and let the AI use the powers? Or do you specifically have to use it for them

    T3hKnuckleheadWant2CtrlF4 No. You have to manually select your AI partner to use the Power. An easy way to do this: Before putting talent points in on a talent you may not see too useful in your playstyle, make a second save, and use those talent points only in that second save. Then you can use said talent, and reload that alternate save until achievement is obtained. You can delete the alternate save, keep the talent points free, and repeat the process until all the achievements related to using certain Biotic/Tech Talents is obtained. To keep you from getting confused on having too many saves on 1 Shepard character. I realized this too late, and made too many Shepards... wasted more than a dozen hours being an idiot.
