I use my Mattock X (w/ AR Magazine upgrade V and AR Piercing Mod V) with my Demolisher. Pretty much my go to Weapon for Engineer.

Since cooldown is hardly an issue, I'd say Piranha + Mattock.
And whoever said ammo isn't a concern, they're full of it.
Pylon recharge isn't that fast to have infinite ammo with Harrier I

I use the Demolisher more for crowd control so I use the Falcon to stagger targets then follow up with a grenade.

If you are looking for an Assault rifle i would recommend the Harrier. If you dont have it... i would probably go with the Saber, and if thoses two are not an option then i would use the Mattock.

Anyway, i dont go for the no fitness build...
to be honest.. i dont understand how people can play the demolisher camping near wherever you place your pylon...

I load up a wraith, stick 4 points to fitness and cut some points to the Homing grenade. (with a good team they hardly hit their targets...) So i run around shooting arc grenades to dish mayhem on enemies and stagger them while i head shot everything with the wraith.
Gold and Platinium level tested ;)

Burst damage? The Talon is a semi auto, are you thinking of the Eagle? That gun is automatic


No. When I say "burst damage" I'm referring to weapons that deal high amounts of damage to a single target quickly.

Honestly, if you're using a Harrier you have little reason to switch to a Talon unless you run out of ammo... which doesn't happen as a Demolisher. The Harrier will kill things faster than the Talon in most cases, and most enemies you would be aiming at with the Harrier would be long dead in the time it takes to switch for your Talon if you just shot them with the Harrier instead.

The Harrier and the Talon essentially serve the same purpose. The Scorpion inflicts AoE damage and can stunlock enemies. It does something that neither the Harrier, or the Talon can do: The situational benefits actually make it worth switching weapons.

Killing a group of Phantoms, or Geth Hunters for example, is much easier to do with a Scorpion than it is with a Harrier as you can singlehandedly lock them down with near infinite stunlock.

A Demolisher with a Scorpion + Harrier is more versatile than a Demolisher with a Harrier + Talon. While you have 2 weapons that kill single targets quickly, I have 1 weapon that kills single targets quickly, and one weapon that eliminates, and controls large groups. I could inflict the same single target damage that you can, but I could also go nuke a Phantom spawn.

Ok, I understand about AOE damage and being able to stunlock groups. Normally I don't run out of ammo, but sometimes it happens. During objectives, escort objective for example. But I put the blame on me for not dropping a pylon when the coast is clear.

Harrier no question, and just the harrier. Keeps the cool down on pylon almost the same as the dispense rate for grenades. Works wonders for when you are moving around a lot, and for spamming the hell out of grenades when you dig in.  It is also great for close and mid range firing.

If you're running out of ammo, you're doing it wrong. I regularly play Demolisher / Harrier (IV), and it is rare to ever run the ammo down to zero.

Keep slamming the pylon down when you can, as it is an instant load for grenades / ammo. I'm really just doing it to keep getting grenades, the ammo is rarely below full. If you're equipping two weapons that may be an issue, due to the extended cooldown. Given the Harrier is almost always on full ammo, I don't see the need to carry a secondary weapon - it would just slow my CD, possibly leaving my Harrier empty (and slower grenade feed), and causing me to need to keep switching weapons.

 Since I STILL have no *&^ ! Harrier...

the Phaeston works nice...as does a leveled up Sabre ( mine is at IV...) and Falcon; weight is no issue since you have no powers besides pylon spamming.

I use Indra and Pirhana, as well

I go 6/6/6/5/3

I camp the Pylon but do go out and attack the enemy. Use the arcs to stagger and usually finish them off with the Mattock/ Piranha or Vindicator/Claymore or just switch to homing grenades for the finish... The reason why people camp is unlimited grenades, hard to pass that up.

Thank you for the imput, and thanks again everybody :happy: Pray for a harrier seems to be the consensus...

Exactly what I was going to say.

 This here, the saber is usually my first choice for it's head popping power, but in small areas it's not so great, and the rapid fire and stopping power of the harrier wins out. On maps where I can snipe freely (like london) the saber wins out.

Harrier or Indra. Yes, I know you asked for assault rifles, but the Indra just happens to be one of the best assault rifles even though it's classified as a sniper rifle.

Harrier or Saber for my main weapon. If I feel the need to carry a secondary weapon i usually go with a piranha or a reeger.

I use a falcon and a piranha. Use cryo ammo and the falcon's stagger to group enemies together then toss a grenade.

Falcon. With Devastator mode ROF, ammo and damage bonuses the weapon is basically a lot better DPS-wise, and you get ****** easy fire explosions with incendiary ammo and multi-frag grenade. For single target DPS I also have the piranha, don't really need anything else.

Edit : Nevermind, actually misread and understood Destroyer. :(

So no AR on mine, I use Piranha for DPS and scorpion + ULM for crowd control. This leaves me with a decent enough cooldown to recast pylon right after it drops its second set of grenades.

I don't really find any of the ARs to be attractive on this class, the Piranha does the DPS job pretty fine and I often find myself at really close range, so...
