So I recently leveled my Piranha to X, my lolfirst rare to X, but I rarely use it, so I was wondering if it's a gun worth giving a go with any amount of consistency. I have a Raider VI and a Claymoar IV and I predominantly play w/ them, I throw in a Wraith I periodically if cooldowns matter, but I've been playing my BatSol a lot lately and since he's a CC kind of kit I was thinking of giving the Piranha a go. If nothing else it'll get me closer to Street Sweeper, so...what say you?
Piranha a good choice for...

Piranha is great - just use it as a weaker-more shot version of the Raider. The obvious kits are things like GI, AIU and Destroyer (9 rapid fire shots if i'm remembering right) but Valkyrie is very good with it, and I've become fond of using it on the Fury.
Just remember to use smartchoke!

Batsol, GI, GE, QMS/Tsol, Valkyrie....yada yada
I've not tried it on the TSol yet, maybe I should... Of course EVERY weapon is good on him!

Any CQC kit or kit with really good accuracy boosting powers, stability passives are of course beneficial as well. TSoldier, GI, Valkyrie, Paladin, etc

Seriously?

Marksmen makes it do stupid amount of deeps all the while making it very accurate... Combine that with proxy mine or tac scan and you will laugh at how fast bosses go down.I've not tried it on the TSol yet, maybe I should... Of course EVERY weapon is good on him!

There are many really good shotguns in this game .. and it is one of the best (if not the best) on kits with accuracy boosts.
Raider is awesome, but the Piranha doesn't take a back seat to it at all .. in fact, if it weren't for the off host extra shots from the Raider, the Piranha would be way ahead.

By all means. It is a great weapon, good boss killer, good for plat. The obvious candidates were already mentioned but there is lot more: any kind of infiltrator, any turians, destroyer, all geth, vanguards.

I love the Piranha on the Destroyer - Even if it's not my primary, I always carry it as a "backup" (and often end up using it more than my "primary"). It's obviously great on the GI and the Turian Soldier. I also love it on the Valkyrie. If something is in Annihilation Field range (with debuff evolution), also debuffed by Warp, and you're using Warp Rounds, there are very few setups that can chew through armor more quickly.

I like the sound of this, I just unlocked the Valkyrie and she was instantly one of my favorite kits, like a tankier, CC-only version of the Fury, coincidentally another favorite of mine. And iirc the Piranha's not really heavy, so shouldn't hinder the BE's too much. Normally I run the Arc Pistol, b/c Arc Pistol, but since she's a CC class a shotty might synergize well.

You aim it generally like you ****** after a long night of drinking.......with great tenacity.

Pretty much wherever you would use a Raider, you can also use the Pirahna.

I'm thinking something like this setup, based on what you guys are saying
If you're going for this type of build, I would recommend only going 4 ranks in passives (as the 5th rank will only add 37.5 points of damage to your warp - nothing) and take evo 6 in fortification (You can make an arguement for either evo, I prefer the -%30 CD reduction personally)

Piranha used to be great before bioware nerfed it, besides, no shotgun in this game can compare to REEGAR...

This is actually a really good deal, I just derped thinking that the added power would increase the force of my biosplosions, but I have since learned that that is sadly not the case, so yeah, on a CC caster class like that it'd only make sense to have the increased decreased....decreased increased...the freakin lower cooldown time bonus from TA

Lol well, yeah, but the lolReegar just trivializes everything, so I'll keep the guns that still present a challenge and save the Reegar for soloing or lulz. I don't plan to play it frequently.
