* NotGoodWithRejection: If Shepard starts a romance but breaks things off and hooks up with Garrus, he takes it poorly, hurling an anti-turian racial slur and making it clear that he has lost all respect for Shepard (despite her being completely honest and open with him). It comes across as especially hypocritical given that he automatically cheats on Shepard in ''3'' and expects her to simply be okay with it.

* NotGoodWithRejection: If Shepard starts a romance but breaks things off and hooks up with Garrus, he takes it poorly, hurling an anti-turian racial slur and making it clear that he has lost all respect for Shepard (despite her being completely honest and open with him). He reacts similarly badly if Shepard leaves Jacob for Thane, with Jacob's word choice ("the ''drell''?!) implying that his displeasure is less due to his personal dislike of Thane and more that Shepard is romancing someone outside her species. It comes across as especially hypocritical given that he automatically cheats on Shepard in ''3'' and expects her to simply be okay with it.

* EveryoneHasStandards: Dislikes mercenaries and assassins, which causes some initial friction when Thane comes aboard. [[GameplayAndStorySegregation Though he says nothing about the far more mercenary Zaeed]].

* AntiAdvice: It's subtle, but almost every single recommendation that he makes in ''2'' where Shepard has a choice of what to do is the wrong thing. He advises going to get the Reaper IFF right away (before you've completed all recruitment and loyalty missions, which will result in people getting killed during the Suicide Mission), he recommends spacing Legion without turning it on (which you can't actually do, though reactivating Legion is crucial to [[spoiler:brokering a peace between the Quarians and Geth]]), and he volunteers himself to go through the pipes in the Collector base, which will get him killed. The only exception is asking him about upgrades; he correctly points out that the Normandy's current armor isn't going to cut it against the Collectors, and if you fail to heed his warning Jack will end up dead before you even fire a single bullet.

* DoesNotLikeSpam: The ''Citadel'' DLC reveals that she's slightly lactose-intolerant, having mistaken the milk in Shep's fridge to be made of soy.[[note]]It's unsurprising since 73% of Japanese are lactos-intolerant[[/note]]

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With Urdnot Wreav. Mutual dislike obvious. Cooperation necessity for curing Genophage. Payback acquired during tissue sample collection.
-->'''Wreav:''' He failed to mention how he was gonna take his tissue sample. This ship doesn't have enough painkillers for where he cut me!

Added DiffLines:

* HiddenDepths: Double subverted. Discussion with Shepard regarding Collectors. Disgusted with lack of culture. Personal interest negligible; anger scientific in nature. Culture sign of philosophy, growth, ''life''. Still dabbled in singing ''Creator/GilbertAndSullivan''. "♪I am the very model of a scientist salarian!♪"

Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup


* GutturalGrowler: Zaeed's voice is very rough.
