Really the only way the CSMG is better than the Lancer for casters is if you're planning on primarily using an Acolyte. Acolyte is for wusses who refuse to learn to aim. So the Lancer is better.

Also the Lancer has significantly more damage per clip than the CSMG, even against armor.

FWIW the kit I primarly run the Lancer on is the Human Adept where it's basically the standby, although I'll switch it out with the Wraith sometimes.


The CSMG allows you to equip the 30% biotic power enhancer.  That is not insignificant for some classes.

 

And have either smaller mag or no 90% DR barrel. And CSMG needs both ammo and DR barrel. 


You can get way not having HVB if you have Warp ammo IV on a biotic kit.

I hate the reload mechanic.
If it had the Avengers reload animation I'd actually use it.

It's overrated, but good in general. Little recoil (for me), good damage, good clip size, regenerates and applies ammo powers pretty good. I rarely use it.

Level I, it's like a stronger Avenger, but with more recoil and infinite ammo....

No it doesn't have to have the DR barrel.  It does have to have the ammo mod though.

Close to useless.


No. Simply...NO.


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.



CSMG has terrible DPS versus shields and health, so...you're wrong.


Terrible DPS? Its normal DPS is 686. Given the lazor-like accuracy, you can pretty much multiply that by 2 to get a rough estimate of the real DPS it's dishing out. So it's 1372.

The normal Lancer DPS is 848. Given the pretty bad accuracy, on caster classes you're probably going to land far less headshots, and you could probably use a *1.5 as a rough estimate. So it's 1272.


As you can see, the CSMG deals better DPS against infantry shields and health than the Lancer. Against bosses' shields the Lancer is a bit better, but armour is by far more important against them.

And, I'm probably even underestimating the importance of accuracy.

And I'm also not accounting for the very important fact that the Lancer doesn't start recharging instantly when you stop firing, while the CSMG does.


So no Lights, you are wrong.
