I would trade my Valiant IV for a Crusader IV.

First of all, hipfire unless youre behind cover. Even stability consumables have trouble taming the Hurricane.

I always roll with Heat Sync and Ext Barrel for quick burst dmg (infiltrator, soldier) and Heat Sync and Extended Mag on Turian soldier to take advantage of marksman.

Slapping AP ammo on the Hurricane makes it exponentially better.

For classes, it works well on the Turian Soldier for Marksmans Rate of Fire bonus
Infiltrator with max dmg cloak gets I believe 2.5 seconds of firing with the cloak dmg bonus (MASSIVE burst dmg)

And I just like it on my Batarian Soldier

I'm usually a top scorer when I use either the Valiant on my Turian Sentinel or Hurricane on my Quarian Male Infiltrator.

Yes, I know that's backwards. I like it that way >.>

i only care about the hurricane out of the n7 weapons
the amount of dmg you can dish out with it on a turian soldier or geth infil is ridiculous
also i love its sound while shooting :D


Same, it's the only good N7 weapon. And it's weight isn't too bad. I use Harrier and I have Hurricane in my pocket just in case.

Ok, perhaps noob question, but I have never been effective with the hurricane...what mods/class should I use? Thanks.


It's a CQC weapon, best used for run and gun play style. Works well from the hip, usable at medium,  and lethal at short. For all clases minus the Turrians soldiers, I use heat sink, extended barrel.  For Turrian soldier, I setup ammo, and heat sink. It's not as fast as the reager, but at point blank range with an armor piercing ammo it comes really close.

Today, I was downing banshee after banshee when I was able to trap them in an offensive bubble, and firing point blank. I found they were too stupid to go around the counter on white.  So I setup my bubble right around me let them come to the other siide of the counter then I reave, and unload the hurricane.  Worked really well as long as my teammates killed the brutes and lesser enemies fast enough to not flank me.

Valiant is a good sniper rife, it's accurate, does decent damage, and has a quick reload.

The Hurricane is the best SMG available, it does a fair amount of damage, has a high ROF, and with the heatsink and extended magazine mods can fire off a ton of shots.

The Crusader is pretty fun to play around with, but it's way too heavy to use on a regular basis.

I never play my SI or GI anymore.

So obviously, I have a Valiant IV...

I'm quite happy to have the Hurricane 4. I never got the Valiant, but have it in SP (Collectors Edition), so I'm not too concerned about it in MP.

I'll say its quite disappointing to receive an Eagle or Crusader however. Those weapons need major buffs to be worthwhile... they're terrible in SP and MP (even with the buffs in MP).

I can't stand the Crusader.

Yet mine is at IV.

I would really love to have a Hurricane.

Yet I don't.

Miss RNG is a sadist.

I've been having fun with a Crusader on my HSo. If you have good aim it pops heads like crazy. For bosses I tend to empty the clip into them, AR and keep shooting.

Valiant: Whenever I feel like going on a sniping spree, sure. I throw it on a SI or GI and go to town.

Hurricane and Valiant are two of the top weapons for their categories, the others not so much

but the events are worth doing for those two

Crusader on Turian Soldier with Marksman specced for ROF and headshot damage is like a 4 shot Saber that hits harder and has built in peircing....

It actually made my POS Crusader IV servicable...

IMO those are the true UR weapons.  Don't get me wrong, I got a Valiant and I love the weapon.  However though it is only at lvl 1.  I am so eager to get it again and reduce it's weight, increase it's damage and increase it's ammo cap.  I have yet to get the Hurricane, I have heard a lot of good things regarding that weapon.  And no this isn't a bashing of the weapons and I refuse to participate in weekend challenges rant.  I do like working for them, it is a nice change out of the routine of grinding out time and effort for those wonderful URs.  It is just sometimes it sucks when you bust your tail in the weekend challenge and you recieve an Eagle for your troubles.  It's like me waiting on your table and you tipping me with pennies.  I am so looking forward to getting another upgrade with that weapon.  Check my manifest to understand my disdain for the Eagle.  Do you care about these weapons?

I feel so sorry for you..even though you have a whole host of guns to choose from, but I understand that sometimes you get rubbish weapons after the weekend operations :crying:

10% chance that someone who has done all of the operations will still have any one gun not unlocked yet. Unlucky, but thats one in every ten. As for a specific gun not unlocked, like the Hurricane, thats 2.5%, so one in forty will "not have the gun they want".


Exact number is 13.7%. I belong to this club as well, and had no intention of unlocking the Crusader.

Sorry to hear so much disappointment. Since getting the Valiant and Hurricane, I really can't be bothered with these garbage ultra rares other than the Harrier and Talon. Outside of these 4 guns, I next turn to the rare shotguns, GPS, Claymore, and definitely Reegar. I plan to try out the scorpion once I get it to level X. I'd rather use smash than those other garbage ultra rares. They're not garbage because they're weak. They're garbage because they're not so fun... but most of them ARE weak.

I want to add, we failed to win the war with the reapers because most of the ultra-rares are so weak. Also, two of the N7 promotional guns are so terrible.  The galaxy fell because of guns like the Javelin, Wraith, and Particle Rifle.
