I just tried it at level X and I'm not really getting the hate. It's a solid rare assault rifle which is something this game was lacking. Comparing it to a Harrier X just isn't in any way fair. The Harrier is lighter, faster and just as powerful at equal levels but it's an ultra rare so it should. Does it compare to a Harrier X? No. But it's more than holding it's own agains my Harrier II. The fact that it has about double the Harrier's ammo capacity is nice too.


My Harrier IV tears it to shreds, and there isn't much difference between II and IV...

It is pretty bad. It really benefits a lot from the scope. Not sure how manageable the recoil is, as I've so far only used it with Turians. The gun needs some work. The damage per bullet/burst is decent, but it's slow, inaccurate and kind of heavy. Way too many weaknesses.

The accuracy is fine, just fire it from cover and all you'll have to worry about is recoil.

I got hyped, and now I'm less hyped.. But that won't stop me from giving it a try for myself!

Just tested it myself. It's like it's trying to be the middle ground between the mattock and harrier but failed miserably.  I'll stick to my harrier x as well.


Ultra rare> rare

Harrier will always be better than the argus....for power creeps sake gentlemen

If it doesn't fire at least 5 clips per shot, with major increase in damage, not only does it not justify the recoil that the player has to deal with, it also doesn't justify the weight of it. I always thought from the look of it, it should have steeper clipsize as well from Vindicator, also 3 bullets shot.

It is a replicate of many other rifle with additional hinders and set backs. This gun is garbage without balancing.

I never used it after initially trying it out way back in March 2012 at SP.

I was playing as a Turian so recoil was a non-issue. Even from cover the spread is pretty significant. Not to mention the shots seemed to drift to the sides more than up or down, which is a lot more awkward to compensate for. Outside of cover it's just silly.

I used the Argus X in a couple of silver and gold matches and with alot of stabilisation mods it was pretty good on silver but I wouldn't use it on gold. Very low RoF and slow reload. Ulike the Harrier I didn't need to run over to the ammo boxes every 20 seconds.

Yup tried it out on a lvl 1 HS on bronze. X lvl after 7 psp's. even with AR +50% dam I found it to be lacking. if it performed like the Vin might be acceptable for a rare but really should be down graded to uncommon. Needs recoil reduction formost, and better accuracy so its not just a close range weapon, damage is livable if you could count on burst head shots, but you cant so its going in cold storage untill fixed.

Really like the sound FX though. At least it has that and also staggers often on mooks, which you need due to it very low RoF.

Im not liking it. The 3 round burst is ok, its just not fast enough to put rounds 4,5 and 6 down range. The enemy isnt phased by it. it is a bronze and silver weapon.

Its ok with stabilization mods and the rate-of-fire buff of Destroyers i guess.

But not as good as my Harrier or PPR.

It's a waste of space...and PSPs.

All of the N7 peorder/Coll weapons except the valiant/PPR sucked (and yes, that includes the chakram). A SP weapon needs at least a 70% increase from its original base damage to compete in the current metagame; last time I checked 36% != 70%.

Yeah, just came through the forums and saw this so I went and spent 1mill to get Argus X. Amazing, Biofail keeps foisting these failguns on us. What a terrible gun. Tried on GI and Destroyer. Terrible!

I tried a level 2 Argus on my Human Soldier after I heard the Argus was introduced into multiplayer, and it didn't have that sort of "power" feeling as if I were to roll out with the Mattock Rifle. It's not a terrible gun, but it needs buffing plus equipment upgrades to make it powerful.

keep in mind its the gun ported right out of single player, guys, give it a bit.
it sucked there too, it has to scale to MP enemies.
this was the reaction to the particle rifle too, and well..
that's obviously changed.

I'm not giving up on the Argus Rifle on day one because I use this gun a lot in SP.  They got to test the waters first and then they'll give it the boosts, probably next week or sometime in the future.

Haven't played yet but already it seems that it needs a 1.5x buff or 1.25x buff w/ headshot multiplier of 3(?). What do you say?

there won't be a damage buff for it but a damage nerf for something else that everyone loves

It has bad hip fire accruacy like most A.R.s but its zomed in accuracy is pretty good. 

I prefer mine with the stability mod and ap barrel.

Damage could use a bit of a boost however and maybe tighten up the hipfire accruacy a bit.

used it in single player, not worth it, its heavy, not alot of damage and lots of recoil, needs some buffs to be considered above bronze and silver
