I was just wondering if anyone has tested all the ammo types with the Particle Rifle.

I used it for the first time today with Cryo Ammo on Insanity and it absolutely detroyed, ulimited Freeze Ray.    I wonder how strong it could be with other ammo types.

To tell you the truth I was shocked when I got the gun. I was rolling my eyes and thinking they just added it as another 'big gun' to help sell DLC.

Turns out its a genuine 'toy'...that's fun to play with. *Bzpeewwwwww*

Incediary ammo, with explosive 6th upgrade is my favorite. But this gun is awesome no matter how you look at it. I never switched my gun since I got it. I tried them all atleast once, and always came back to this one, it is the most powerful weapon in the game.

I've been loving this gun as well. I'm even thinking of running my next playthrough with folks like James, Javik, etc, and just go lazer spamming fun.

Yea I have it and Garrus has it atm.  It's a lot of fun.  I've Been Using EDI, but I may toss in Javik or James for the heck of it and just blast away.    

Groups of enemies drop very quickly.

I tried putting it on one of my companions once but they instead on firing really short bursts, not ever hitting the full beam damage

I'm very happy Kaidan has an AR with Garrus, James, and Javik. I love the Chakram too much to pass it up, but I let them use Particle Rifles. Absolutely painful. I'm just wondering if the squad incendiary carries Ammo +30% for the team with the explosion, I may consider a respec.

i think you've all just solved my problem of defending the thanix missiles. i may have to re-do the whole mission, but it'll be worth it.

When I give Garrus or Vega the Particle Rifle, they often get to the full beam damage...but usually on the heavies (harvester, brute, etc) Cool weapon!

[x-president]

Garrus hits full beam all the time for me. The enemies die so quick it doesn't really matter. Actually I've been using less full beam ever sense I have the increased headshot dmg with cryo ammo.

Also you may want to assign targets for them to attack. That way they'll fire on it till it's dead. I get the best results from doing that.

I know one thing, Garrus and EDI some how killed a Brute on there own.

I think I used it for too long in the early game - I tried to switch to the Argus and Phaeston and thought 'these guns suck - way too much recoil and way too little damage.... and they don't even melt things!? What kind of rifles are they!?'

Seriously, the only thing I don't like about it is that the words 'I'M FIRIN MAH LAZOR' keep playing through my head when I unleash the green beam.

A worthy sucessor to the Spectre AR from ME1, to be sure. Just trying to work out whether the barrel upgrade or the penetration mod are the best choice to go along with the clip upgrade.

I have to say I really didn't like it due to how long you have to expose yourself when firing it, but I really like it now. I've been using it on my a NG+ Sentinel with max weight capacity and I can carry it and any SMG or half of the heavy pistols with prety close to a 200% cooldown bonus.

The regenerating ammo is real a game changer for me, and giving it the magazine mod allows you to stream the overcharged beam longer, which just utterly annihilates armor.

I use it with warp ammo and it works quite well. I imagine it would work well with any ammo type, but it really shines with anything that weakens armor.

I would love for this gun to be obtainable in multiplayer!
Using any kind of AP modifier is just so badass, no need to try to aim carefully or distract guardians, it just melts right through their shield!

In my opinion its one of the few assault rifles (along with the Mattock and the Avenger) that actually has a fair weight setting. Stuff like the Argus are patently ridiculous.

Its also nice it doesn't need a scope.

The only thing I find it a little bit awkward for is very close range fighting, due to its 100% accuracy - sometimes its difficult to get the beam on the enemy for long enough when they're in your face. The Eagle sorted that out... but I'm thinking of taking the hurricane too - or the disciple if I can manage it.

[Svests]

Is it just me or does it get to full charge quicker for squad mates than for Shepard? It seems to charge up for Javik and James in like half a second.

Good to know.  I've only tested Cryo Ammo.  But you can slow down and stun groups of enemies in seconds.  I have flaoting ice cubes all over the map. 

I have cryo maxed now and it basically instant freezes most enemies.  I am running a full party of Ice Rays atm.

Yup. This is what I've been getting.

The PR is my go-to gun for squaddies. I dun like the feel of it myself, so I went back to my Mattock. My opinion might change though.

I may need a secondary ammo for armored targets. Banshees turn the gun into a pee shooter trying to take down their armor, Mechs too.


Any suggestions for a good anti-armor ammo?

Well there's Inferno and AP ammo for armour. PS Inferno a beast with this gun if you take the mini explosions lvl 6 upgrade.

Incendiary and Amour-Piercing Ammo.

[x-president]

Thanks, may have to respec some points for Incendiary sense I have it.

[Klimax]

Ah. Particle rifle... Get it after Mars and no more problems... (like "out of ammo")
Including Atlas or Kai Leng.
