Revenant for raw fireppower. No other gun match its ability to pump dmage downrange so fast and so deadly. This is an idea gun for Soldier classes. Recoil is negated by having a level 10 Revenant with stability and extended barrel mods.

Falcon is in second place. The grenades can punch through enemy groups in seconds, though it small clip size is a bit of a drawback. Extended mags are a definite with this one.

Valkyrie finished off the top three. Very mild recoil, excellent damage state. Extended mags are a definite with this one. Plus its a very sexy rifle. I must admit i mod it to have the same weight as the vidicator if only to fit it within the canon.

Chakram launcher is nice is suppose.

The Particle Rifle is too overpowered for an assault rifle, so I would say that it is the best. However, for the sake of fairness, considering all other assault rifles, my money is on the Phaeston: in spite of its lower dps compared to some assault rifles, it's very well-balanced in terms of clip size and accuracy.

Chakram Launcher is broken as hell.

The Collector Rifle, while I enjoy it on Insanity, doesn't offer much outside a pumped Avenger mixed with a GPR will do. Sadly, it carries most of the weight of both guns (it's biggest downfall for such a light looking weapon).



I love mine CL is the only AR i use in SP

You mean it is the only grenade launcher you use.

I prefer the Vindicator. Good mixture of stopping power and accuracy, with extremely low weight. Usually I use the stability mod and the piercing mod.

I love using the Mattock. It's my favorite gun in the game. But if you're going for damage output, the GPR and Particle Rifle are tops depending on your build. If you use a Vanguard or solider you get access to Incendiary ammo and its explosive evolution. The rapid ROF of the GPR and PR make for constant explosions and massive damage to health and armor. It's pretty ridiculous. You can take down a Brute on Insanity in about 3 seconds with the GPR or PR and explosive ammo. It's nuts.

The Phaeston is my AR of choise. Inflicts good damage and has more than enough ammo to go with it. I like to put an Assault Rifle Scope and an Extended Barrel Mod on mine. With the scope its accurate enough to score a couple more headshots than normal.

Mattock is a good gun, and Ima let you finish, but the Vindicator is the best AR of all time!

Indeed they did. I wouldn't say its overpowered due to the two-stage beam mechanic, but its balance of power, rate of fire and accuracy outperfrom every other full auto weapon in the game.

Plus (imo), its looks the best out of all the assault rifles :P

It really depends if you're talking about Single- or Multi-player.

In the single-player campaign, I really loved the splash damage (and ROF) that the Addas had. It was heavenly. I could take down whole groups of Cerberus infantry before they could leave their dropzones. The only detraction (from my RPG-centric perspective) is that it looks out of place in a screenshot. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices though, no pun intended. Since I was a soldier, I very rarely took James or Ashley with me (barring story-inclusions/when it felt right) so my assault rifles were strictly for me.

In multiplayer, if I'm playing a Turian I lean towards the Revenant, and if I'm not I use the Saber. (Yes, it's heavy, but there's no crying in baseba-- er, multiplayer!) I usually mod my Saber with an extended barrel and scope, since I play it like a jack-of-all-trades sniper rifle and mailslotting is easy-peasy with it. My revenant tends to get the armour penetration treatment since it's great without a scope and terrible with one.

Especially if you're a sentinel and plan to use it as your sole weapon.
With the right investments, a Level V Particle Rifle as your only weapon can give you a +172% cooldown bonus, good enough for the sentinel.
Put some high-level piercing and magazine mods and it becomes the ultimate weapon.

Indeed, this works well for the Adept and Engineer too. Though in practice, pairing it with a Carnifex or Paladin works incredibily well.

All things considered, the piercing mod and magazine upgrade are the only mods that massively boost the Particle Rifle - I think the base damage of the beam lacks any kind of bonus against armour, so the combination of the mod's armour piercing and the blistering fire rate really ramp up the gun's impact, and the clip vastly expands the time the high-power beam can fire.

The rest of the mods are fine but don't really affect the gun's performance.

I honestly tried other guns, even modded a rev a bit, but i still came back to particle rifle. Nothing beats it. It laughs at ammo, has a insane rof, with good dmg.
Javik looked at our weapons and said "Primitives" and gave us a hell of a gun.

I don't feel there is a "best," but some of the best choices are: Cerberus Harrier, Adas, Particle Rifle, Mattock, Saber, Vindicator, and Geth Pulse Rifle. Out of these, my favorite is the GPR but you may differ.

I too have horrible luck in unlocking weapons. I've decided to shelve my Krogan soldier until I can come up with a better loadout.

It's because of the way they did the upgrade model for the black-rated guns - it just doesn't work properly.

I dont know what you guys are smoking, but the Harrier is just insane.

It doesnt even matter what class you play, just pack a harrier and you can tackle anything.

I regularly play on insanity and theres nothing that doesnt die in a few shots. with upgrades its light enough to make work with an acceptable weight penalty.

Give it a try, it also has a satisfying sound when firing :)
