if you aren't good at aiming or just to lazy, use the venom.

charge it --> cloak --> run near a bunch of enemies --> snap freeze --> release the shoot imidiatly after snap freeze and aim for the ground --> everything is dead.


Seriously?

At what level is your Venom?

Reegar with Incendiary all the Way. If you play a broken char play it as broken as possible :D

only at level I so far. don't know how much stronger it gets with level X. As mentioned, the trick is to aim directly on the ground, not the enemy. don't know why but the initial shot doesn't explode into it's 4? parts if you hit an enemy with it (which makes it kind of useless to charge in the first place). If you are standing near the enemy (which you can easily do with cloak) and aim near their feet, all of the 4? parts hit your target and will get the cloak damage boost. of cause by everything is dead I meant everything except the boss units. although phantoms die onehit with this combo. and even on a geth prime it deals around 3 or 4bars of armor damage. also the splash damage is quite good, so you will not only kill one enemy, often you can kill 2 or 3 with this combo.

all tested on gold. don't play platin so often. only made a few games with her, but the one game I had over 220k points (which I never had before because I don't reload cancel/ rarely use infiltrators). Personally I found it pretty effective and managed to get the 200k points challenge for the weapon within 3 games =D

no actually the Raider is far more versatile than Wraith :o

I did yesterday's plat solo with Raider and I was very surprised, of course damage per shot is not as good as wraith, but reload speed and fire rate .........

and today I found is much more funny with Phasic rounds, i'd recomend everyone to try this.


Finaly... someone else has seen the light. B)

But I like to use the Incr...inc...-the fire ammo with it and then Snap Freze them aaaaand blow the enemies SKY F***ING HIIIIIIIIGH!

Mine is at IV and it doesn't kill a Centurion in 1 full charged shot.

The few, the proud, the Crusaders.

Melee build with a Crusader all the way.

Pirahna was the first shotgun I put on her and I have found no reason to want to use a different one. So I guess it gets my vote. The other gun I did try was Hurricane for those games when I don't feel like getting in shotty range.As for ammo I generally just use what I have most of unless it's explosive. 


I don't think the Piranha is ideal on her because she's missing Hunter Mode, so you're not getting two boosts that really make the Piranha OP on the GI: the accuracy increase and the fire rate increase.

Course with her speed there's really no need to ever shoot things at range anyway, but if you're already always getting in enemies' faces, you're way better off with the Reegar :)

Honestly my mind's blown at how few people use a Reegar on her. If you don't have good positioning skills I guess the short range of it isn't going to be good for you, but if you do...I mean it's just so much more powerful than anything else. People saying Wraith/Claymore/Raider really need to give it a try...

Have to relevel her, but did a gold match with level 9 and only shotgun amp 2 and disrubtor muni with the venom I

--> first with 177k.

wasn't able to onehit marodeurs, but she was only level 9, i only had amp 2 and the marodeurs had 2 healbars left. I can't record because I'm playing on xbox. With level 20 and shotgun amp 3, you get the results I mentioned earlier. (I skip fitness btw and go fully on shotgun/weapon damage)

Gold games with the AIU and the Venom shotgun are a riot. Clusters of things die and I walk away, whistling. Saves on consumables, I don't need to bother with amps or ammo.

I like the wraith on Edibot. It's almost not fair getting two shots off with the shotgun+cloak bonus. Raider would work good for the same reason, but I haven't used it on her yet.

Raider all the way. I've tried the Wraith, the Claymore, and the Crusader. And the Scimitar on a dare. >_> None of them live up to the Raider.

Admittedly I need to try the Reegar, so maybe I'll throw that on next game.

I thought the damage bonus lasts for 3 seconds after the cloak wears off (someone correct me if I'm wrong). I'd have to double check, but the damage I was doing sure seemed like I was getting the cloak damage on both shots.

Played a few matches with Claymore on her and I'm recanting my earlier vote for the Wraith.

I'll give the Raider a try, but I'm worried about not being able to hit anything more than 10 yards away.

well the poll doesnt include my first attempt which was the eviscerator. its like the wraith with a touch less power in exchange for a bigger clip *shrug*
as for my trials, i like the claymore but find if you'r running in, one shot cna be dangerous since theres what, 5 cannibles for example all in that same spot? as a result i alternate between eviscerator for the bigger hits or just go snap freeze -> reeger. but for the record i dont think the cloak applies to a full reeger clip so i dont spec into tac cloak very far. if im wrong on that someone tell me so i can move stuff around XD
armor does tend to slow me down with that build tho, so i jsut threw an ultralight armor pierce hurricane on for the annoying ravagers and stuff.

If by "a touch less power" you mean "a lot less power."

Wraith X sustained DPS v. Armor (no reload-canceling): 388

Eviscerator X sustained DPS v. Armor (no RC): 140

The claymore if you like people complaining and trying to kick you from lobbies.
