OK, that's cool! 

He's talking about his wall of text on the GPS.  the GPS can OHK **** just like the claymore when charged.

Other guns that can do what the claymore can: Harpoon and the Graal.  But screw thos two as you'll have to charge them to get the maximum benefit.

Yes, I know that.

I rather like getting fatal headshots at sniping distance with my graal, tbh.

[Scam_poo]

Badass on Krogan Sentinels, I tell you. Weight doesn't matter as you shouldn't be using Incinerate anyway...

[stribies]

I love this gun so much. I just made some guy named mcfly rage because I was 1 shotting everything that wasn't a brute or banshee. Gotta love idiots crying over ksing in a coop game.

Infiltrator + Claymore + Barrel Mod V + Choke V + AP Ammo I, II, III + Shotgun Rail I, II, III + No Shield Gate = awesome!

The main issue with powerful weapons like the Javelin/Widow is that even with ALL that power its wasted by shield gate. So yes IMO the Claymore is like playing a bolt action sniper but just a bit more fun as you can pretty much one shot all but the bosses with it.

If you're using the geth infiltrator, you won't need the choke due to maphacks. You're better off using armor piercing mod to deal even more damage to armored units.

Actually, if you do the math (like I did in the post above or like Manuel did in this thread: http://social.biowar.../index/11500067 ), the barrel will always do more damage. If you have AP3, that's probably the best combo (you get +55% damage -15 dmg/pellet + 1m of penetration). With the Shredder mod + W3 ammo, you'd get +35% damge - 18.5 dmg/pellet +0.65m penetration).

I never said neglect the barrel mod. The armor piercing equipment should stack with the armor piercing mod.

Yeah I loves me some claymore. With the reload trick it's absolutely beastly, and at the very least a little more exciting than sitting back with a widow or carnifex.

Sure it'll stack, but it'll only give you a max of 120 extra dmg, (from a cloaked shot doing at least 4000 dmg) - that's less than 3% difference! Personally I think the extra range/dps from a tighter spread for the smartchoke far outweighs that, but I guess it's up to the individual to try out and see what they like better.

Different ways. I hit the medigel button when I hear the click. Greatly increases DPS.

[D4rk50ul808]

Great until you need to kill 3 rapidly advancing enemies without teammates to help and cloak on CD.

No, they are all dead in 3 seconds.

[Greystone]

The Claymore is my favorite gun in the game for sure.

Damage+penetration mod if you doing a ton of up close work like on an infiltrator or penetration+accuracy for all around use.

I only use it on a couple of classes.  The krogan sentinel with melee focus build, krogan vanguard when I want to hit really hard and am less concerned with charging alot, and human infiltrator.

You can mod it to be capable in pretty much any way you want and the shotty hits so hard that with an accuracy mod at medium range you can get enough pellets on headshots to often 1 hit enemies.

It honestly isn't as versatile overall as the graal or gps, but it hits the hardest with no charge and is jsut straight up boss.

If it weighed the same as a katana X and fire 2 shots before reload it would be the best gun in the game bar none.

As it is, it's a damn good weapon for what it is.

I had to solo about half of round 9 on gold vs cerberus the other day on my human infiltrator and everyone that it was game over because I was a shotgun infiltrator.

Never underestimate the power of a well played shotty infiltrator with a bigass claymore.

[Topographer]

Claymore X. Armor Peircing III. Shotgun Rail Amp III. Cloak. Headshot = DEAD EVERYTHING.
If you didn't know, you can 1 shot phantoms on gold with a simple cloaked claymore shot at close range to the face.

[jancz89]

I love Claymore, I use accuracy and armor piercing mods, I think it's better than damage mod, because Claymore damage is on itself almost at the peak and piercing mod adds up to 65% more damage againt armor, the piercing capabilities with a shotgun are worse but it is good enough to kill guardians

and the best combination is probably turian soldier with this claymore, he can use it as a sniper rifle (well almost)

I am still wondering how the wraith will do though, I think that with damage mod it could be at the same damage lvl as claymore but with two shots hmmmm....

From my experience, the more enemies that come, the better. It is absolutely hilarious when you see your bullets pierce through mutliple mobs and their heads all get blown off. Now if there's a geth prime in the mix, you'll have to be smarter about the distance you're at and whether you have sufficient cover cause you will need at least 2 perfect headshots to kill a prime. And believe it or not, a claymore 10 has a fairly large amount of spare ammo considering how godlike the damage is.

Also this gun doesn't seem to be very effective against banshees. Is this because they have no weakpoint? I can only take off about 4 bars of barrier with a single shot.

someone did a test a while ago and said banshees are weakest from their breasts o.O

[BlackAlpha]

Geth Infiltrator + Claymore = Godlike

[GroverA125]

It only sees proper use as a primary for a Krogan or Infiltrator. The krogan uses it to eliminate or soften up enemies who would survive a melee (with AP for guardians), and an infiltratore as they can use it to one-shot enemies on gold. It's good, but definitely not the best gun in the game. No weapon is perfect, the claymore takes around 1 second to reload, which is far too much for conventional combat. If any weapon can be considered the "best", it has to be the most versatile one. A weapon that is good with one loadout is not the "best", the best is one that anyone can pick up and immediately be good with, if it requires statistical life-support to work well, then it's not the best.

According to bioware, banshees have no weakpoint and they suggested shooting the body because of this.

Sorry, but this is just my opinion.

While a great gun for pure power, I believe it's weight and minimal clip size make it less effective than either the GPS or the Eviscerator.

Again, just my opinion, but there it is.

Well have anyone said your opinion suck if not here you have it 

Thank you for being either a troll or a loser. Grow up.

[Rosalina is my BabyCakes]

I don't think so
I sometimes use the claymore on Korgan

But besides that my GPS can do almost everything better then the claymore
