I have Javelin 2 but no Gelf Infiltrator. I want it so bad.

Why the armor piercing mod on the Javelin, doesn`t it actually reduce its penetration if used

No, penetration distance from piercing mod will stack with the javelin's native penetration. Javelin doesn't have native armor penetration, just cover penetration.

Geth Claymore Infiltrator is insane.

Agreed. I was using a Claymore V without an ammo mod vs cerberus... So deadly. I can only imagine the devastation with Claymore X and armor piercing ammo. I was already soloing atlases in about 15-20 seconds. Phantoms went down with prox mine + claymore shot.

They're so different you can't say which is better objectively. Javelin can be devastating if you can compensate for the chargeup on each shot. It's so powerful that you won't need headshots even with cloak if you spec your character right. And it comes with inbuilt wallhack vision scope and cover penetration, unlike valiant.

Dps isn't that good when you have to reload after each shot. The burst damage is good. But there is certainly no sustained damage.

you can stack armor piercing and penetration and shoot stuff through walls/floors/etc. survivability won't be a problem that way. shield gating isn't an issue if you use black widow or valiant and can actually snipe.

played a match with SIs earlier (black widow and javelin) and nearly doubled the 2nd score. it's probably the best pure sniping character because of the increased mobility and awareness.

I heard the Piercing Mod on the Widow's is bugged and actually reduces damage or penetration, is this true or not?

Because I would love to shoot through walls and floors.

If you can stand the Hunter Vision effect and the delay in firing the Javalin... then ya... there's nothing that can touch the damage stacking of Cloak + Vision + Javalin.

Right now, I can take down a Prime in Gold in 2 shots. Atlas in Gold 5-6 Shots on the canopy.

With a Salarian Infiltrator Specced with ED, AP ammo III, Widow X with Extended Barrel and Piercing mod I can down an Atlas in 4 Canopy shots.

It's still slower than the BW in terms of DPS.

Geth Infiltrator is an excellent class though.

Personally, I roll the GI as a shotgun infiltrator. SI is better for sniping because of Energy Drain.

So I put a GPS, Cloak 5 (no sniper or free power) Hunter Mode 6, Prox Mine 3, Passive 6, Fitness 6. Activate Hunter Mode, charge GPS, find enemies through walls, fire charged shot, shoot twice, heavy melee from cloak in the middle of a mob, shoot again, recloak.

I'm a big fan of the Geth + GPS infiltrator as well - the Geth Infiltrator is practically made for it, with the inherent speed boosts, the ability to see through walls at fairly close range, and the boost to Geth weapons. Doing massive damage with that build and ignoring the shield gate mechanic is great... plus, with the GPS's lock-on effect, you can actually score hits from longer ranges than you'd expect.

[dezy]

don't use the javelin. use black widow or valiant to get past shields. with the rate of fire increase + accuracy, you can unload 3 shots easily each cloak cycle (which comes up way faster because of HM).

don't be afraid to shoot enemies even a few rooms over. on FBW i was able to clear out the top console room from behind the wall of the bottom console room.

[Biosplosions]

Meh, still a one trick pony and Primes aren't even close to dangerous as pyros/hunters/rockets.

[KainD]

Geth infiltrator indeed has the highest DPS of all classes. Pays for it with being squishy as hell though.

The trick is getting both the Geth Infiltrator and the Javelin in the first place, I imagine.

Correct.

[CELL55]

Every class has their 'shining star' of races/powers. Like the human vanguard's charge/nova combo. Everyone being overpowered is the same as saying that no one is.

Does the Javelin count as a "geth weapon" for the bonus damage?

Well, th Javelin is a Geth Sniper Rifle, so yes.

This. And this is perfectly fine. I never pictured infiltrators, geth or not, being the ones providing sustained damage.

We usually 2 man silvers with a friend who's playing an infiltrator, while I'm playing a soldier.
He has a burst build with his Salarian+Javelin/Widow, while I have an hybrid tank-aoe build with my soldier. Works wonders.

I can't wait for him to have the Geth Infiltrator. He'll kick much arse !

On the side, screw the javelin. Take a kishock. At least for gold. that badboy ignores shiled damage gate, so you can basicly one-shot everything that's not a prime. At it have a rapid reload. And alot of spare ammo.

That's interesting, the Kishock is the only rifle that can ignore the shield gate ?

I was unaware the guns could pierce walls that thick.

Well, burst snipers and rapid fire ones don't have much issue with it either, but it is the only single shot one that can.  Tricky to use because of the projectile though.
