The Predator does 600 DPS while being the lightest weapon in the game.


Luckily, you can get other weapons that are at 200 percent cooldown that are infinitely better. I don't see your point. I'm not Ashen Earth, or RedJohn or one of the "famous" posters here either, I don't claim to be an expert at this game (i'm not), but I'm pretty sure "DPS" isn't exactely the best thing to go off of, either.


Its pretty damn accurate too.

In fact, the number of rares that are objectively stronger then the Predator are very small.

The number of SHOTGUNS that are objectively stronger are..... Three out of ten now?

The Carnifex is technically weaker despite weighing more then twice as much....


Be more specific about Shotguns. Do you mean Shotguns that can retain a decent cooldown, or Shotguns period? Cause if we aren't talking about weight restrictions, I can name more than 3.


I thought of the projectile shooters right after I posted that, and facepalmed...

However... In terms of strength to weight..... It still basically kicks everythings.... Rectal region.

The Phalanx is actually REALLY good for being a uncommon.

I actually prefer it to the Carnifex to be honest.

If I am not using my Talon, you will see the Phalanx at my side. :P


Scorpion, Paladin, Talon, Acolyte, Carnifex are all better. Although, if it's your personal preference, as long as you're good with it, you can use the Predator for all I care.


Scorpion totally sucks against anything other than Phantoms and the Acolyte is pretty much worthless other than stripping shields.

The Phalanx is good in any situation versus any enemy... and its bullets don't take like 2 seconds to even deal damage.


Wat.

You can't be serious.


Well when it takes every shot of your whole entire capacity to get a Prime down to 6 bars of armor...

And 2-3 shots to kill a husk.... with only 4 rounds a mag.

It's basically a Falcon that does more damage and weighs less. Use it like one.

It's probably the lightest shotgun. You should take that into consideration.


Desciple is lighter, and better. The scimitar has been absolutely neutered. :(

The Scimitar is far weaker then it deserves.

That's like saying getting electrocuted is better than burning to death. It still sucks either way.

Disciple just seems to be slightly better, mainly due to it's weight. They both are completely outclassed by the rest of the shotguns.

The Desciples weight makes it an alternative to the Avenger, not the Scimitar....

I just find it to be a nice backup shotgun for soldier. More so in singleplayer where i can have 3 guns. On a caster, I would rather have recharge speed than dps. (Although I onlyusemecarnifex.)

Well, while we're on the subject, the disciple could use some love too.

And before the "zomg, stop asking for buffs to weapons that are supposed to be crap" gang shows up... Disciple is actually a gold card.

So i'm the only one who didnt notice that? :D I think the disciple would benefit from a faster draw/ holster time and a quicker rof and recharge. It doesnt do crap for dps but It could be an awesome backup weapon with these buffs.

I think the disciple could use a bit more damage but the most important thing it needs is 100% stagger. Every shot staggers every single time. That's what it needs.

Always hated the Scimitar. Was a Claymore, then Evi, then GPS guy in ME2 myself.

It took me 3 playthroughs of Me2 to let it grow on me.

However. I never liked the GPS.

Ironically, I liked the Schimtar more on Grunt than the Claymore.

I miss heavy weapons.

Here's a draft, feedback encouraged.

I'm thinking the 'M-27 Scimitar' bit might need a different font.

Ok.

Always got the Rev in the collector ship. 
Didn't like the Claymore too much and the Widow was pretty good but not my type.

Gps was.....
rape on the assault sentinel but before I got it, I used the Scimitar 24/7

Scimitar needs buff direly, that's for sure. My suggestion would be to increase it's accuracy from 8 to 10 so it'll be same as claymore, and increase ROF from 100 to 150 so it'll fire as fast as piranha. This will make it a good alternative to the piranha. Katana and Eviscrator also need a small damage buff.
