Gamer Corner Guides

The in-game name of the enemy; there may be different versions of an enemy, for example of different races, that share the same name; advanced enemies have more than two different health levels; DLC enemies are only encountered if you have installed the relevant content

Some powers only affect organic or synthetic targets

The different health bars this enemy has, in order from outermost to innermost; enemies may have less health bars on lower difficulty levels; each health bar type is affected differently by weapons and powers

The class of this weapon; whether a character can use a particular weapon depends on whether they are able to use any weapons of that class; only Shepard can use heavy weapons

Some weapons may only be used by certain characters; heavy weapons are all exclusive to Shepard; Shepard may use any unique weapon by choosing it at a certain point in the game (including those normally unique to other characters); however, you may only choose a weapon if Shepard is already proficient with that class of weapon

The style of fire of this weapon; note that semiautomatic means the weapon will fire repeatedly until the clip runs out, while single shot means there is a significant delay between shots
