Phaeston X, Tempest X, Viper X, Mantis X

I've been able to decimate enemies with all of these. Especially the first two on a caster class.


"Decimate" means kill one out of ten. . . actually for these weapons that sounds about right.

Indra, tempest, graal and the GPS. The tempest is an outstanding SMG, in my opinion it's the second best SMG in the game behind the CSMG (which I hardly see anymore either)! I use the tempest on gold all the time and it rocks.

Wait, so where does that leave the Hurricane?

After nearly 400 hours, Lancer 0, Harrier 1... I use the Geth Pulse Rifle X more than anything else. Incendiary ammo + Overload and here comes the Boom...

Arc Pistol


Arc Pistol isn't just pretty good, it's awesome. :P

Easily my favorite pistol.

Most shotguns are pretty good in the right hands.

The Indra and Black Widow are the SRs I see all the time, so I was surprised to see Indra on the list. The Valiant SR doesn't seem to get used much anymore. The Valkyrie AR isn't appreciated enough IMO. The Paladin is still an excellent pistol. The Piranha for shotguns and Tempest SMG is perhaps best uncommon in the game.

I don't like the hurricane, I know it's a very powerful SMG but its accuracy and recoil are terrible! With my tempest X, I equip a scope and the stability mod and I can score headshots from anywhere on the map. It has decent power, good accuracy and a great clip size too.

Never see Falcons despite what an excellent weapon it is. Maybe because of the issues it has off host. Never see Acolytes either.

Eagle. I use it a lot with casters. I seem to be in the minority.

I'm also a cheap-ass Reegar-spammer when playing Krogan Non-Clown-Hammer Sent, but it's just so fun and easy!

One of those guns that the nerf didn't hurt it but, for what ever reason people just got tired of it (Most likely when the harrier came out). 

The jav I don't see alot of on xbox. Pitty. It's a good gun for an SI. =]

The CAR really isn't all that bad. Granted, I've only tried it on my Turian Soldier, and he makes any gun work well, but I was doing better than normal with it, so I have reason to believe that there might be some merit to the gun.

Well the nerfs did hurt it, but ya i think people also just got bored of it.

It came out after the Harrier though. For me it was when the Raider was released that i pretty much stopped using the Piranha.

Still the Piranha is a great gun. Ugly, and not as good as it was, but still a solid killing machine.

So we have a lot of weapon choices. A LOT. But all I really see people use are stuff like Harrier, Hurricane, Acolyte, Claymore, Raider, Reegar,  Wraith, Lancer, Black Widow, Javelin, etc.

What weapons that aren't used much are actually pretty good or can stand up to these powerhouses? I'm trying to get some more perspective is why I'm asking.


I have a burgeoning love for the Valkyrie.  I also *REALLY* love my Falcon X.  Were it not for the challenges, I might never have abandoned it.

I use the Scimitar shotgun often in Silver and Bronze games. The damage is lower than the other shotguns, but it has an 8 round magazine to make up for it.

In addition, it has a really low weight so I can get a 200% power recharge for spamming powers

after going through nearly all the weapon challenges i can say that. The Scorpion is the best mook killer in the game, PPR is truly insane, phaeston can actually do some decent damage, and so can the hornet (if you wonder which class, it was the volus engi), vs. cerberus = lol stagger all the things, Indra, Widow, Kishock, Paladin, N7 Typhoon, Javelin, Saber. There are tons of pretty good guns, just stay away from the god awful Raptor and the Locust and the BBP as well.

Krysae, Phalanx and Argus... I use all 3 on Gold. There are stronger weapons, but these 3 are more than adequate

I recently got this to X, holy cats.  Put on a class with rof and accuracy bonuses ( gi, tsol, destroyer ) and you are missing something.

Now that mine is at VII I use it as the secondary on pretty much every kit... It's absolutely amazing, I'll usually burn up one of my 50 stabilization amps if I don't do what you suggested and put it on a turian, but OMG it's still amazing on every class.

The only other SMG I use is the CSMG or Locust (which is my on topic SMG choice I guess)
IMO the shotgun class has it's Kings, Claymore, reeger, Raider, wraith and crusader but the others are terrible, disciple is usable for me I guess

*edit: BPP for smg
