Thanks for the input[/johnny 5]!

I found the Falcon to be hilarious - I had Garrus and James with a pair, and they tore stuff up. Good stopping power. One caveat - if you're making them pack Falcons, make sure you're a shooter. They won't be able to hit anything on ledges (as the shots will bounce off the edge of the cover) and I had an annoying time as an adept. They also kept bouncing grenades at my face while trying to shoot at something above us. I ended up just giving them Particle rifles. Garrus is a horrible sniper in ME3, I watched him miss at close range with his Widow - and he shoots way too damn slow, James managed to chip away a cannibal with a Chakram before he could fire two shots.

Also, I mentioned I wanted to pass my squad a pair of Argus - both Garrus and James (in that same fight, I kept restarting the mission to test out weapons) fired what appeared to be single shots only instead of a burst. I also couldn't tell if they were firing the Valkyrie properly, or just single bullets. Anyone know?

I think on my Infiltrator play I'll give them Falcons with Cyro Ammo on them. I'll just snipe whatever they can't hit. In the Benning mission, they'd take out assault troopers in seconds with a double-tap. Blam-blam and the trooper's corpse is flying away.

yeah snipers for squadmates is so terrible in this game!
and yes the cryo ammo + falcon is fun, hell slap with a particle rifle for more fun!
aside from other AR's i could only mention Vindicator and Avenger even the Phaeston that your squadmates handle well!

Well if you want mass fire power you want large Mag size on a full auto weapon why because squadies will fire until clip been used up then reload. If you dont want them to expose them selves for to long use a difference weapon with less ammo per clip or non-full auto.

BTW the DLC rifle + Squad inferno ammo and rank 6 explosion upgrade = laser beams of explosing death (kills most stuff in a couple of seconds, standard troops die on touch). Seems to be buggy where the explosions get trigger with every hit and DLC rifle does tons of hits a sec.

squadies AI are not that dumb and stupid on getting shot even on insanity, if they r taking shots they will go to cover, even on cover while taking hits they will move cover to cover, and there is also the squad controls!

This is proving to be an invaluable resource. Do you have any plans on expanding this list, like making a rank/tier list for the weapons?

Garrus did well with the Incisor in ME2. One shot snipers are sort of a waste on squadmates.

I'd go for the N7 Sniper, Black Widow, Incisor, or Raptor. I'd lean heavily on the Incisor.

Which is better for squadmembers, tempest or paladin? Also is the particle rifle much better than the revenant/falcon or about the same?

Ok chaps, got a decision to make on the Spectre weapons front. In my new Sentinel playthrough I have just about sufficient money post Sur-kesh mission to buy a Spectre Weapon for ma Shep. Now as a Sentinel was going to get either Paladin or Wraith (but I am rubbish with shotguns and am using a caster comb specialist build)...or I could buy Garrus a Black Widow, as he is my usual companion for a biotic class where I don't do the sniping. He was good with it last playthrough when I also used it myself, but that was much later in the game. So is it worth it, or is paladin a better option (just using Vindi so far for faster cooldowns)

tempest or paladin... really depends on your playstyle,, particle rifle > rest of the list, if u dont have the dlc then go for revanant or falcon

strip their barrier first with overload, etc. then particle rifle will just melt their armor, particle rifle is strong but a lil bit weak against sheild and barrier but with the right mods and power ammo... it will decimate any enemies!

snipers here are 50/50 hit or miss accurate, take forever to shoot, but if u want a playstyle commanding and directing squadmates... then go with Widow for long range then a Particle Rifle/Revenant/Flacon for mid-close range

@All-a-Mort
the spectre weapons are mostly for your character use not squadmates... except for Paladin i guess!

oh well, tried Paladin and didn't much care for it, so gave Garrus Black Widow. He'll be rubbish with it no doubt, but since in my Sentinel playthrough he is a FemShep LI i'll just to have say I bought him a present. Wasn't much to spend 250k on so early otherwise anyway.

Falcon : Magazine Upgrade + Extended Barrel
*squadmates are also very accurate with weapon, AOE damage, power ammo works so great with this weapon, and a powerhouse when fully upgraded (example is it can strip the sheilds of a Cerberus Centurion in 2-3 shot and killing them in 1 shot on Insanity difficulty *fully tested!*), and squadmates benefits the weapons weakness... reserve ammunation*

Where's the Falcon? I don't remember seeing it anywhere in the SP.

Thanks for this list, I've been trying to find it so I'm gonna give this a friendly bump.

I noticed Kaidan isn't in the OP. But I'm guessing, just give him the Particle Rifle and pick weapon damage for Alliance Officer level 4, since that's the only thing that gives him bonus weapon damage?

The biggest problem with the Hurricane is, it sounds exactly like a Cerberus Engineer's turret. This may not seem like an issue, until you end up pinned down, looking for one, only to realize that it was Liara firing at an enemy behind you.

I just played around with the shotguns, and it seems like the Grael Spike Thower is better than the Wraith (since squadmates don't care about weight). Each shot on the Grael, uncharged, does more damage than the Wraith. Am I missing something?

Uncharged, a Graal shot is doing around 200 less damage then a shot from the Wraith.

The Graal has a much tighter spread though, so at further distance has a better chance of all of its 6 spikes hitting.

Can you update to the Pistol and Sniper Rifle? I mean, most of us already know to equip the Snipers with Widows and everyone with a handgun a Paladin/Talon/Scorpion, but I'd like to see some consensus or numbers.

Even if the Hurricane/Particle Rifle essentially bends the game over.
