Tempst for infiltrator where I like to get in close (I'm a rubbish sniper)

btw am I the only one who doesn't like the Carnifex? I always have to find somewhere to reload as it only has 36 rounds in it and for me there's a lag between shot and damage

Honestly...I can't say I have. I have found uses for all other weapon types but SMGs just seem inferior in every conceivable way.


The Tempest is a beast.

It is my main weapon for my Engineer, Adept, and Asair Adept.

Well, I don't have it yet, but I've ALWAYS hated the Carnifex. The Phalanx has easily twice the ammo and only slightly weaker damage this time around. And you can give it the same scope and barrel upgrades that you'd put on a Carnifex.

I think it ultimately comes down to personal choice. Like some people swear by the Claymore, but I personally hate the thing.

I just got the quarian engineer last night, and was tearing things apart with a cryo blast and shuriken combo. I personally find them very useful for caster heavy classes.

It is choice, sure. I love the Claymore but the difference is shotguns all have their uses whereas SMGs are pawned by every other weapon class.

SMG does more damage if you feed it to the enemies. Otherwise, you can do more damage with less spread using an Avenger AR.

If I could at least feather the Shuriken like I could in ME2, and can with the Predator and Mattock, then I might find a better use of at least one SMG.

For now I've adapted to the good ole' hand cannon, the Carnifex, and/or the Scimitar, since it takes too many shots for my preference with the automatic-fire weapons I've unlocked, and the Predator and Mattock also aren't as fun as using a quick enough close range burst from the Scimitar. Plus, I like using those two shotgun mods that boost the damage and spread!

And I was surprised by how unwieldy the Tempest was for me when I tried it. I can't remember if I have more that with the SMG's since I barely use them anymore in the MP Demo. I haven't used Sniper Rifles much either.

I've used SMG's a few times. specially the tempest and the Hornet. and recently unlocked the Locust. but all in all I find them rather difficult to use (if using a scope) unless you burst fire and even then the stopping power just isnt that good. (hornet is debatable though) all in all though... I'd still rather huse the Phalanx or the Carnfex.

I know one use for SMGs come full game will be because of the exclusive mod (lightweight materials). Correct me if I am wrong.

I pretty much just use SMGs as a backup weapon for my caster characters.

Yeah, that's correct.

Seems like a waste to me, though. The SMGs are already as light as feathers. Give that mod to weapon classes that could really benefit from it instead.

At first I didn't like the SMGs. After fiddling them around in a few times I've learned that they are good for strafing.

tempest with heat sink (the one that allows for free shots) + upgraded ammo capacity is great for Atlas' IMHO i can just fire forever throwing biotics whenever they are ready without having to reload.
