I keep hearing people saying they're great for crowd control, but I've not been able to use either guns to great effect (on Gold, and yes, I was hosting). Their damage just seem......underwhelming...

Edit: Spelling

Edit 2: I suppose I should clarify that I'm wondering how to best use the guns, e.g. what mods to use, ammo, whether to fire from the hip or aim, if headshots matter etc etc, rather than which class is best suited for using them.

Cryo Rounds.

[THE NOOBIE NOOB WHO TYPES IN CAPS]

Play with human soldier for striker, at full speed, hit adrenaline rush, full reload and bonus damage, works wonders.
Falcon: turian soldier or GI with hunter spacced for Rof and damage /w proxy and cloak = fun times ahead

Striker - on Battlemaster
Falcon - on offensive Justicar

Gold

So it's more about incapacitating mobs than to decimate them fast? So I just fire in the general direction of a mob and freeze them? Or does aim actually help with damage? 

[THE NOOBIE NOOB WHO TYPES IN CAPS]

nop, CC aim and shoot, the delay makes any sort of refire impossible without turian soldier and half the falcon shotsdissapear if you're not the host.

Falcon is about CC, not damage. It is a support weapon. Use Ammo mod with it, depending on your class. Cryo or Disruptor ammo work really well.

Striker is kinda weak, cause it doesn't cause guaranteed stagger, unlike Falcon and it requires you firing for a long time, making it dangerous on Gold. It is usable on characters that can take a beating. I personally use it on my Human Soldier from time to time. 40% DR and increased shields from Adrenaline Rush help, not to mention a free reload, but it is still rather underwhelming.

Striker is a high dps weapon. It's just that only infiltrators and biotic explosions can handle banshee, atlas, and geth prime in any reasonable time.

[Utopianus]

Ahh ok thanks for all the helpful replies

[DarkAedin]

 use them with ur quarian engineer, spam cryo blast, and use disruptor rounds on the gun, watch explosions go off underneath your god given ability to control any crowd. throw in a random area incenerate too

although useful on other characters, after the nerf to the falcon, and the striker just being overall weaker, i found that it still emanates shiny and glowly things with this build

[THE NOOBIE NOOB WHO TYPES IN CAPS]

Striker is a truly skilled weapon, if you kno how to set it up, it rocks, if not, it'll suck harder than a falcon1 on a novaguard.

[Excelous]

Aim gun... shoot??? o.o;;;

[Nitrocuban]

Shoot from the hip, use ammo powers, do not expect to have a high killcount. You stun and weaken enemies and your team mates finish them of.

[rgeshevv]

My choise is the Falcon. This weapon is like SE Decoy on Geth. They can't move because of the stagger. The weapon's role is pure support. You won't kill alot of enemies, but you will keep them at bay, while your team is dealing with boss/es. On gold, ammo mods are not MUST, but pretty close. Disruptor and cryo are best for this weapon in my opinion.

If you have 2 or more biotics in your team, you can try drell adept or the justicar with falcon. You won't have 200% CD, but your teammates are the nuke squad. You can complement them with reave and clusters, and keep at bay any smaller enemy, even stagger the big ones with the falcon.

(Btw justicar's reave don't wrwrwrwr your teammates. It wrwrwrw your ears, but not their's. Drell's however is wrwrwr dubstep with the nuke squad explosions )

[Chromatix]

The way i'm using it:
Disruptor Ammo + Krogan Sentinel. Just disrupt any enemy in crowd and incinerate. Work excellently + Mass Stagger.

[Traim Eisenblut]

Falcon:
Salarian Engineer + Disruptor Rounds. Shoot, ED -> bzzt (Techburst).

[thunderheadx84]

Host the game.

[Stardrinker]

I've noticed that if you keep the Striker firing, and don't let go of the fire button, then use cloak, the gun keeps firing and doesn't break cloak. Not really powerful since the gun does pitiful damage, but it may be useful once in a while.

[Sho am good]

Falcon+Disruptor ammo+Chain Overload=lots O Tech Bursts
Not to mention it staggers so well you can simultaneously keep four phantoms at bay.

[Peer of the Empire]

Falcon is for offensive justicar. You won't need biotic teammates.  You provide your own covering fire to setup your own biotic explosions

Striker is for damage. But the class must be able to shoot it

EDIT: Lol at low damage.  The Striker is one of the highest damage weapons in the game once firing full auto.  It's just that it's a weapon

Your eyes are deceiving you or you're lacking in the damage department.  Its what I use when I want a guaranteed win against Cerberus.

[DHKany]

Falcon, like other people said is a very much a support weapon. pairing it up with cryo or disruptor ammo would be best due to the multiple techbursts you can set off due to the splash damage. Incendiary ammo is also viable, provided you can reliably set off fire explosions.

With the striker - always have the extended ammo clip; gives you that many more shots at full fire speed. The same holds true for the Geth SMG; which is why it's probably my favourite weapon on my Geth Engy with the extended clip and damage buff - 180 rounds high-speed full auto, with hunter mode fire rate and damage buffs - it does more damage than you'd expect... not as good as the GPS perhaps, but way more satisfying.

Host, aim ,shoot , repeat when necessary.
