The Valiant is the best Sniper Rifle in the game, no contest whatsoever.

I absolutely love the Valiant, personally. I use it in SP so when I got it in MP I was happy. I use it all the time on my infiltrators and other sniping classes.

If the ULM actually worked, the Hurricane would be one of the best guns in the game. The Valiant was the best sniper rifle in the game before the TC nerf hammer, and now it is still decent. Right now you have a 50% chance of getting a great weapon for completing a squad goal, which is much better than a 5% chance through RNG.

I don't bother with them. I don't think any of them are worth using compared to the other weapons I have availiable. Hurricane is good on certain classes but tbh anything it does the harrier does better. It also requires stabilization modules and firing from cover tto be accurate which is annoying.

Is it really that hard to control on the xbox?

I don't think I've ever used stabilization module with the Hurricane :?

I like the N7 Crusader on my krogan soldier, mail-shooting guardians from the other side of the map is awesome.

I stopped bothering with them a while ago.

Valiant is my SR obvious pick, because of quick reload (I'm not much into reload cancelling), good rof, damage and low recoil. I use my Hurricane with TS when I have AP ammo.

One more level in either of them is not that exciting. One more level in Eagle or Crusader is even less exciting.

you don't need to aim for the mail slot with Crusader, but yes, it's pretty accurate.

Um. Two words:

Valiant. Hurricane.

Ooh, that would make a decent username.

Valiant Crusader would be more thematic.

You can't kill them with 1 slug in gold if you dont go for the head... but the piercing is great anyway, and I like having another heavy hitting shotgun just in case they fix the medigel :whistle:

I've seen people use the Valiant to good effect, not much for sniper rifles myself though.

I've only got that and the Crusader... which I had fun with for a while, I'll admit lol


If it didn't weigh a ton, I would try it out more often.  Tricky accruacy though.  Kinda like it's so accurate that you can still miss your target.


Yeah, I have the same problem with it, always seem to think it more of a shotgun with wide spread then more like a sniper rifle, which is what it should be used for.  The heavy weight is a problem with this thing.

I really want to move to a Valiant IV, but unlocking the Hurricane is a close second. So far, nothing melts Banshees faster for me than the Geth SMG, but it needed to get to V before it felt good. The Hurricane would have to be stable and powerful at first try or back to the bin it'd go, since any further points would come at the cost of the Valiant.

Meanwhile, despite positive opinions of the Eagle from here and a guy I played with over the weekend, I think it's crap. Sure, I could wear out my right thumb trying to hold it somewhere near the target, or I could pick a weapon that doesn't fight to jump out of your hands. Some gear to help? Not when I have other weapons that behave.

Used the Crusader once. I'll check back if it gets lighter...

I would trade my Valiant IV for a Crusader IV.


Sold, although I only have Crusader 3.  I'm sure we can work something out.

Do you care about these weapons?


I do - but its not a "do/die" kind of deal.  The Valiant is pretty nice to play with, but the Hurricane is all I want more of.  Finally got it and even though its just a Hurricane I, its the absolute beast of rapid-fire weapons in the game.  Does take a ton of equipment to make it work though (hoping some of the new mods coming with Earth DLC will make it less equipment taxing)...  AP Ammo/Stabilization Mod 3s are like a must at the moment which limits how much I use it today.

The Harrier is the poor man's Hurricane, though its an UR...  still doesn't have quite the DPS potential, but is less equipment intensive.  You'll need to visit ammo boxes a whole lot more though.

Says a lot about how broken/unusable rapid-fire weapons are on higher difficulties though...  the only really viable options are a promotional and an UR.

I've missed out on quite a few of them weekend events. I only recently picked the game up again after not touching it for a couple of months.
Which is kind of a shame. I like the valiant, but because it's level 1, it's more effective to take my Viper X then the valiant. Which is a shame.

Is the Hurricane manageable on a Turian with all of the stability bonuses?

I love my Eagle I and prefer it to my Hurricane II on my Justicar. I play gold with it and with AP mod. Brutes and Banshees go down quick inside the bubble. MQE destroys with TacScan and Hurricane.

I've been lucky with the promotional weapons I've received: Hurricane III, Valiant II, Crusader I, and still no Eagle.  But I can understand your frustration if you've gotten a lot of Eagle upgrades.  If that happened to me, I don't think I'd be too excited about the events either.

I don't like the fact that the packs received from the weekend event are random.  For all of the regular weapons, if you play enough and get enough packs, you will eventually get all of the same Rare and Ultra-Rare weapons as everyone else.  That isn't the case with the promotional weapons.

Valiant and Hurricane are usful but the Eagle and Crusader are useless as hell just like all the other black carded weapons .....

Also lol at poster above me for thinking ULM works when it is still bugged so it wasn't working for you on that Hurricane :innocent:


Say what now?
