This weapon is the sole reason I love the soldier class now.

i unlocked it but haven't used it. what does it do?

Basicly an upgraded falcon. shoots faster, does a little bit more damage and has about the same encumbrance, iirc.

I'd like it better if there weren't guns I like better competing for my AP Ammo stash.

Does it have the same problems as the Falcon/Scorpion/Vanguards in that it works not as well if you are not the host?



yes, same problems (esp. noticable on high difficulty matches)

I have it at level ten and its god awful, i may as well throw my shoe at them. Yet another weak assault rifle, very disappointing.

Its an even trade off considering the falcon's long range and ability to shoot around corners and over walls.

I don't like this gun. The description makes it sound like it's great but as with every gun with a bit of potential, they found a way to make it useless on most toons. My Turian uses it with aim and it's ok until you run out of ammo.

Nooo, it's a decoy!  They're diverting attention from the geth pulse rifle!  The things a friken lazer man!  Krogan with frikin lazers on their heads!  Horror!

I don't really like it since it has terrible amount of ammo and was useless on gold, seriously, the enitre clip on just removing 1 enemy, if you hit with the random spread and through the explosions :S

Can those of you who like this weapon explain to me how you make it viable on Silver/Gold matches?

What character are you using? What ammo are you using? What mods are you using? I've tried various set ups with this weapon and the sheer ****tiness of it astounds me. It was most effective on a Turian Soldier, but even then it was woeful compared to alternatives. Even the Geth Pulse Rifle is better... and that's saying something.

Oh no! They've noticed we like it!

Quick! Say bad things about it! Don't let it get nerfed!!!

Why nerf a weapon which is not really better than a carnifex for Gold? It has low spare ammo. Low damage. Absolutely no impact on armored targets.

Even a full 12 round burst on Adrenaline Rush does not put a dent into an atlas armor.

It is a nice weapon for silver, but that´s about it.

I'd rather have Bioware finally acknowledge the projectile weapon buginess in MP. Hint: 75% of players are not hosting the game and having half of the magazine filled with blanks is NOT fun.

$ Lets make a deduction why they couldn't simply remake the Falcon into the Striker. $

A lot of the rapid fire weapons are balanced around the consumables, and won't function properly unless you use them.  This is an unfortunate design decision.  

Take a Human Soldier with Adrenaline Rush specced for damage, and slap on an AR Rail Amp III and a level III ammo power.  Gold health targets will drop as if it were a Silver game without the consumables.  You're more or less forced into the extended clip mod unless you plan to turtle up next to an ammo box.  If you take AP Ammo, you can take the damage barrel; if not, you'll want the armor piercing mod in order to affect armor.

It's also a gun that needs to be leveled to be viable.  And of course you have to host.

All of that is a pretty sizable set of restrictions, which is why a lot of people test the gun and discard it.

It is good for stunlocking unshielded/armored targets and is indeed effective vs clustered groups. Outside of those fields of application it is probably the worst gun to ever use. It's also way too heavy to lug one around just in case, so yeah.

yea I fought it was quite good the first time till my team was being over run then I realise how useless it becomes since it seems to very little area effect and only does a 1 bar of damage each shot.

I think the striker is kinda crap to be honest, it feels like it's trying to be a shotgun, a grenade launcher and a rifle all at once and not being very good at any of those. Really only feels effective at short and point blank ranges.
