 This gun is terribad.  Probably great on bronze or silver.  It will be the death of you on gold.  The gun has good DPS but the "clip" size is so small that the charge won't last to kill anything.  And once it hits 0 it takes a long while to go back up in which time you will be murdered.  And if you get murdered while its refilling or on 0 it will still be on 0 when you get back up which leads to a vicious cycle of helplessness.  By wave 7 of the collectors I was trying many things to offset this, tapping the shots out instead of a stream, cloking to reload, nothing worked the gun simply empties long before you can kill anything worth killing on gold.  Maybe I'm doing it wrong, although I don't think I am.  I hate this gun.  It needs a drastic increase in clip size to be viable in my opinion.

got to kinda pace shots with this gun great on silver though

[darkpassenger2342]

you gotta click the trigger and stop before it runs out... i used it earlier and it was very powerful but very frustrating..i missed alot and spent too much time in the crazy zoom in scope, but i think it has potential. i think its good gun with practice even though the clip size is absolutely pathetic, even though it will take ALOT of practice lol.
or you can use it with the destroyer and increased mag size.

Yeah you are.

45 shots is more than enough to kill any ground trooper. Actually half of that is usually enough.

And yes I have used this gun on Gold.

[Kataigida]

Take the spare ammo mod over damage...at X and with that mod, you get 45 ammo. You can also combine with Gear, a Batarian, or the Destroyer to further increase the amount of ammo in a charge.

Its 35.  Not 45.  And it kills most of the grunts provided you manage to keep the "beam" on them for the entire duration.  My problem isnt the DPS its the clip size and "reload" time.

At X it has 45.

You probably don't have it at X.  Extra magazine ammunition does help.

Okau what the HELL was wrong with mine then? An entire clip wasn't even enough to kill a Cannibal on Bronze for me. It's rank1 sure but it shouldn't be unusable.out.of.the gate.

Not sure but I can kill an Atlas in 3-4 cloak cycles on Gold.

Phantom dies the moment she uses her barrier.

I should probably try Reapers but I doubt its any different.

I was using it on the collectors and no I don't have it at X.  That was a strange assumption to make.

I have it at X. The weapon is barely passable on Gold because of its clip size. Sure you can dispose mooks quite fast (provided you don't miss) and it's decent against brutes and ravagers. If you get a lot of heavies in a row though, then you are in trouble. Even if you time your shots perfectly, you will, more often than not, find youself running, while waiting for the gun to cool down.

I did a quick game in gold with it on my salarian infiltrator so that my list of new things to try out would be complete. Left on wave 1. I don't think I even killed anything. I just fired the gun, waited the full 20 minutes for it to reload, then left since everyone else died. This is probably one of those guns that will become deadly in the hands of the right player. Gotta get that timing down, amiriteorwat.

[PaperAlien]

I prefer to tap-fire it and it works fairly well for me.

[Elecbender]

Yep everything except a Banshee died in less than 1 magazine.

Banshee died in 3.

On Gold.

[jandrewcepticon]

I tried this for the first time with a friend against the Collectors on Hydra in a gold game, using a Salarian Infiltrator. Damn, I felt useless against the big guys. Gun has a nice gimmick to it, but it just doesn't seem practical once the wave of big baddies come right after the other. Sorry Collector Sniper Rifle, but I am going back to my beloved Indra.

[VintageUtti]

I tried my level 1 gun on bronze and hated it already. Don't like the scope and wound up hip-firing to kill things faster, but then I might as well just use the Particle Rifle and its much larger magazine. Cannibals were barely going down in one clip so I don't even want to attempt to use it on silver or above.

No offense but you seem to be the exception, not the rule.

[darkpassenger2342]

the community NEEDS TO KNOW if the CSR has a hipfire penalty, and what it is....

I feel your pain.  Took it for a spin with my infiltrator against cerbs on BRONZE... couldn't even damage anything!  


What am I doing wrong????

[D Wrecks]

All the Collector weapons are crap.

I have only tested it on silver so far, but man, it absolutely MURDERS everything there. It sliced through mooks and bosses alike on my salarian infiltrator. You're right about the small clip size, but I find that once you get used to that you start to know when to release the trigger so the gun doesn't overheat. Besides, isn't there a trick to make it reload faster? One that works for the PPR as well...

[Grunt_Platform]

At X, this is one of the best sniper rifles in the game, especially on Gold. Try it with incendiary ammo, and pulse it. Try to never let its ammo counter hit 0, and you can just fire away like crazy. With Warp ammo, it ends up being one of the best weapons to use against the collectors, since it strips even a Praetorian's barriers in a single cloak cycle.

I love this thing. I just wish the spare thermal clips mod would boost its ammo or something the way Magazine Upgrades boost the particle rifle.

[Kenadian]

Needs a bit more ammo, and no ****ing range cap. Seriously? A range cap? I can understand it on the PPR, but on a bloody sniper rifle? That's just silly.

[GriM_AoD]

Just pace the shots, or pulse it. If you don't overheat it, it recharges fairly quickly.
Problem solved.
