Hurricane was known to be one of the best weapon in whole ME3 MP since the launch.

I got it fairly quickly.. although later than some people because I was a PS3 player.
However, I did not really use this weapon because of high recoil.

But over the time... things changed a lot.
A LOT for hurricane.

High-velocity barrel for SMG, truly great mod only when equipped by hurricane.
Other SMGs benefit from this as well, but the result is not nearly as good as hurricane ultimately due to lower DPS.

Stabilization amp. Not very useful for most of other guns, but extremely useful when combined with Hurricane.
This item was available for a long time, and I am sure many players have this item more than they need.

SMG damage amps. All of us have too many of this!! No need of explanation!


To make long story short.. now we can counter all hurricane`s weakness with consumable items while exponentially increasing its lethality at the same time(Heat sink+High velocity recommended).

Result?
Full biotic or tech character holding Boss killing Hurricane with minimum charge penalty.
Creation of character with no weakness.

Out of all N7 promotional weapons, there is no weapon that can match the usefulness of Hurricane.

I am not saying Nerf the Hurricane, Oh god, please No.
But if you haven`t it`s time for you to utilize the Hurricane one more time to experience its awesomeness.

If you don`t have a hurricane, I really hope you do get it with this weak`s commendatio pack.
It`s so good even at level I. Image IPB

Yup, it's an awesome weapon. You missed one more indirect buff, using pistol ULM makes SMG ULM work now, so you're pretty much guaranteed to have 0 cooldown penalty on any character if you want.

Yes, the two new SMG mods seem tailored to benefit it specifically. It's extremely powerful right now, sort of hilariously so.

Hoping for Hurricane IV or Valiant II in Commendation Pack.

On what?.... Bronze with level IV consumables?

The locust is nowhere near as good as the hurricane in any way other than recoil. Which can be fixed with an amp or mod. :?

I was so thankful when I got my first Hurricane last weekend challenge. Finally had an effective SMG to burn amps on that I had stockpiled to around 40. I just couldnt use any other SMG properly.

I also have a bias since I havent used it without lvl V Stability/Piercing and a lvl III amp on.

If you equip both a pistol AND a SMG with their respective ULM mod, the SMG mod actually functions....

Thus, weirdly, if you equip say a carnifex with ULM and a hurricane with a ULM, you'll actually have a lower cooldown penalty than say if you have JUST a SMG with the ULM since the latter option doesn't work...

Weird bug but fortunate for casters...

They stated (for a second time) that they have a gaurenteed fix for it this time. Whether or not to believe it is up to you.

I must say i like the Hurricane since it was given on operation goliath, there was a lot of whining around here of how usless that smg was :D

But hey... Heres a tip.
Try the Hornet X with Stabilization mod V and High velocity barrel... I never played with it, but since i started fooling around with different builds and weapons i must say this smg was a total surprise to me, and its fairly a good "option" to the hurricane wich can be rather "difficult" to get.

Not really, it works perfectly fine on Gold.

I prefer the way the Locust operates over the Hurricane. Sure, I could "fix" the Hurricane with different gears and consumables... Or I could use consumables to increase my biotic/tech damage or cooldowns or shields. I'm not going to waste the space by fixing something I don't like when there's something I do like readily available. If you want to do that and use the Hurricane anyway, I won't stop you or berate you for it. I respect that you have your own playstyle, so please respect that I have my own as well.

The AP mod actually makes all SMGs viable on Gold now due to ignoring 90% of DR.

Dear Locust users, it is indeed Ok to love and use Locust in gold.. but just keep in mind that you can perform 200% with properly set hurricane anytime.
