Katana X and human adept biotics....I can spend 2 seconds killing the enemy, or use the smg and spend several more seconds waiting for the Cerberus flackie to go down.

This is very true, but the problem you will run into is that you have literally no long range weapon unless you weigh yourself down (katana x + any weapon = noticably slower powers).

It weakens the team to have anyone pretty much ineffective until things are in shotgun range.  You need more flexibility on gold.

Tried to make SMGs work with a few characters... they just don't. Never had a locust, but the burst ones are pretty useless.

HEYO, just got the locust!!!

it still stays accurate at range when used in long bursts. BUT it barely does any damage. the ME2 locust did noticable samage, the ME3 version does not do enough damage to be called a firearm. weaksauce. im sticking with the avenger.

i tried the revenant too. it was wildly innacurate even with the accuracy boost mod, and didnt seem to do much more DPS then my avenger.

The SMGs are only good for one thing, and that's their weight. Only use em if you want to max out your ability recharge. I still think the heavy pistols are more useful though, even though they tend to be just a tiny bit heavier.

i am anxiously waiting to unlock to locust, since i used it all of ME2. the other SMG are worthless to me. ill take the avenger untill i find something better.

It's too weak to be useful. Like in ME2, its accuracy is way out of its class, but it's DPS is horrid and you have to go for headshots to be effective.

I stick to the Tempest for my Engineer so I can spray whatever gets near me

The Hornet is awful. The recoil is absolutely retarded, the weight is atrocious, and since it's a burst fire weapon it is very difficult to compensate for. And the damage is mediocre, and with all he dodging that enemies do it just isn't worth the work it takes to use it competently, much less effectively.

The only good way I found to use SMG was with incendiary/cryo ammo on it, they cause burn/freeze instantly.

I was under the impression that SMGs were awful especially after trying to use the Hornet. Then I tried again and realized that while they are not great, they are not as awful as everyone says. Hornet has terrible recoil that makes ADS pointless. When fired from the hip at mid to close range though, it's pretty nice.

I'm most disappointed in the Locust though, it really doesn't feel the same anymore and I think that is the hardest thing to accept about it.

The Shuriken is the best out of the bunch though it seems. It has manageable recoil and decent damage.

It's too bad that they are really outclassed now.
