My opinion is that I need to have a lancer in order to have an opinion on the lancer. So please give me a lancer.

I used to think it was great and slapped it into every single Engineer and on the Turian Sentinel. Then I took a huge break from ME3, and when I came back, I found it to be rather mediocre for Platinum.

PPR for life.

I just found out that the Lancer is an AR that isn't the Typhoon or Saber.

So I hate it.

No, incendiary glitch is too slow. Geth have low Shields/Health, so weapon fire + overload + tech burst kills them faster than the incendiary DOT. Even the Prime goes down faster, because this combo will strip his shield very fast and the amount of armor he has is not huge.


I don't think a Prime would die faster with tech burst than with Incendiary glitch. Also I don't think it is slow.

also they die faster with a weapon than Tech burst unless you are talking about single troopers.


Good Lord... Again you fail at basic reading:

The combo I am talking about is weapon fire + overload + tech burst.

What do you make out of this?

Again, what you make out of it is very different from what I actually said.

What I am saying is that continuous weapon fire + overload + tech burst will kill a Prime quickly. The other Geth are absolutely massacred by this combo and this combo works way better with a Lancer than with a Typhoon.

It's pretty awesome on the Justicar.

Probably the best weapon for the character and the best character for the weapon.

Oh, and this:

Sheer effectiveness, there is very little it can do that the Harrier can't do better.
Only thing it can do better is not run out of ammo on Glacier Platinum.

That said, I vastly prefer the Lancer, love the feel of the weapon.

One of my favourite weapons in the game.

Probably my favourite Assault Rifle at least.

I kill everything with it so fast with my turian soldier, stability bonuses are really helpful. It has a lower damage compared to the harrier but it has a slightly better RoF. I really like it. I gladly forget about ammo boxes.

Actually, I prefer Phaeston on Turian soldier than Lancer.


RedJohn pls

honestly Lancer is the the best choice for a weapon for a TSol on platinum, especially U/U/P.


I don't even have Lancer, but... better than Claymore, Raider, Hurricane, Talon and Piranha?


Purely because unlimited ammo offsets the worst part of Marksman (i.e., burning through every weapons ammo supply at a Harrier-like pace). Also of course MM activations resets the CD on the Lancer if you overheat it.

but I also generally run the TSol on plat with two weapons, if you catch my drift


Just to touch on this, does the Lancer with an extended mag even last the entire duration of marksman? Also the MM activation when you overhat it still requires the ammo to recharge, which means you have wasted a MM cooldown. Compare that benefit to activating it just before your typhoon is out of ammo. I would have actually thought the lancer had bad synergy with marksman.

I run my Turian soldier with Hurricane as the main weapon with the Eagle as a secondary for times when I do run out of ammo.



And that's the thing, I also believe Lancer has a bad synergy with marksman unless like Lightswitch you carry 2 weapons. Lancer can run out of ammo too fast and you can't instant reload it with thermal packs.

The weapon can be very very useful on casters for its "unlimited" ammo feature but I don't see it very viable on pure weapon characters like TGI or Turian Soldier.


nah it's great with Marksman. On Gold I'll roll the QMS or TSol with just the Lancer without a second thought. The only bad part of the cooldowns on overheating the Lancer is that you're immobile trying to reset it - MM eliminates that problem.

Not to mention I'll rarely actually overheat it in the first place. TSol with a Lancer can one-clip a gold Atlas, and the accuracy bonuses move the Lancer from having pretty good accuracy to lazer sharp.

The best assault rifle for Platinum. That's just my opinion.

Best AR IMO - HVB & clip upgrade, ammo depending on the kit

Harrier is better on weapon classes, CSMG is better on caster classes.

The only thing it's useful for is if you're tired of using those weapons.

currently I only use it on the justicar, but it's a great weapon.

Well by that logic one could make the argument that only the harrier, the CSMG , the hurricane, the javelin, the valient, the BW, the CSR, the arc pistol and the talon are good weapons and all the rest are useless.

why is everyone marrying their justicar off to the lancer? Reave for easy staggers to landshots and wrap ammo to buff the damage?

If this is the reason then it's so cliched as hell.

I really like the Lancer. I normally use it on my Turian Saboteur or the Volus Engineer.
