Hi everyone.
So, I'm sorry to be creating such a simple and boring thread, but I was wondering if you guys could offer a bit of advice.
I'm trying to get the N7 Eagle, but I have no idea what are the best packs to use or what is the weapons drop rate. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
If you want it that badly, I think there's a technique that some use (never used it myself) where you uninstall all of the multiplayer DLCs other than the one with the weapon/character you want and then try and get it. Although it might be a good idea to get a second opinion on this, because it could wipe your progress for all I know. As I said, I've never done it. Just seen people talking about it.
Sacrifice your firstborn to the RNG Gods in a profane, midnight ritual.
That's only if you want the Lancer X.

Arsenal Packs are probably going to be your best bet, but the much better lesson would be to not get attached to the idea of having any one specific kit or weapon (especially an Ultra Rare one.) Odds are, it will be a long time before you see one.
Not really sure why you want the Eagle as there are better guns that are easier to get. It's an ok gun, but nothing special.
What makes it special is that it's a pistol.
It has the characteristics of an ultra light and accurate SMG, but it is classified as a pistol, allowing it to be used in combination with gear and boosts that are typically paired in a way that precludes maximizing SMG bonuses.
Off the top of my head, a Justicar using Commando Gear with Warp Ammo is actually a really good Eagle setup. If one likes using light weapons on casters, the Eagle is almost certainly going to make the rotation occasionally.
That having been said, it's no Harrier or Black Widow, but with all the buffs that it has received, I'd say it's a solid entry in the Ultra Rare class (even if I don't use it much, myself.)

Anyway you get it the same way as all other UR guns by buying the 60k specter pack or any of the 3 99k packs.
It's totally RNG so it can take some time before you get it.
It's a great new manifest UR weapon because it's so light even at level 1 and still pretty good dps. Making it the best choice for biotic combo focus kits (which is also what you should be playing if you wan to play Gold or Platinum as early as starting a new manifest. I did).

The best way to get the n7 eagle is to desperately want any gun apart from the n7 eagle, then watch the eagle upgrades pile up. Worked wonders for me.
That may work, but you must really commit yourself to hating N7 Eagle and wanting any other weapon, because RNGesus feels if you're faking it and still secretly wish for N7 Eagle and won't drop it. .

My variation is to desperately wait for the Eagle upgrades and get all other upgrades first. In the end - on the last ten upgrades (apart from the thousands of cryo and disruptor ammo), RNG will be forced to give me those ten Eagle upgrades,
one
after
the
other.
One can say I've fooled the RNG.. wait wut?
Sure, but the Justicar is great with a lot of different guns.
Would make more sense to me if the Eagle were a rare gun and the Arc Pistol were UR.
Agreed, on the other hand it still makes sense for some Rare weapons to be "better" than some UR. Maybe some criteria for rarity are unralated to the efficiency of the weapon. Come on hear my story.
The Eagle is actually an UR thanks to a famous Salarian spectre by the name of Beezat Azitmei. He was attacked by a Blood Pack gang on the shady planet of Korus Ant. The leader, a brutal Krogan Batllemaster called Grimbergrunt learnt of the Spectre presence and decided to make a name for himself by taking him out.
They cornered him in a bar called the Kan Tina. A pack full of eighteen gang members all armed to the teeth entered the bar, everybody left in a hurry except for Beezat who kept sipping his Jango Martini, sitting casually at the bar table. A Vorcha started to chuckle with the distinctive lovely laugh all Vorcha have. Beezat, in a traditional Korus Ant poncho and sombrero took off his hat and raised his left hand, still turning his back on the pack of vicious bandits.
- Please, before it goes down, I'd like to finish my drink if that's okay with you...- His voice was calm and cold, like he didn't care about what was about to happen.
- Haha sure, after all even I am not so cruel that I would refuse a dead Salarian last request - Grimbergrunt said cunningly grinning. He was already thinking about how this feat would have a huge impact on his already bloody reputation. Beezat put down his glass, now empty, took a slight pause and said :
- You're mistaking my words Krogan, what I meant was, let me finish my drink before I put all of you guys to the ground...- Beezat spoke those words with such confidence that everybody in the gang even their leader, shivered. Grimbergrunt wasn't going to let that lone Salarian get the better or him.
- Hahaha, you're a funny guy, unfortunately for you, there's 18 of us and only 1 of you, don't even think about getting out of here alive ! - His voice was menacing and terrified at the same time. He knew there was nothing a lone shooter could do, yet somehow, he still felt tintimidated by the intensity of the Salarian that was standing before him.
- Besides, what do you expect to do with this pea-sized shooter huh ? I know you weren't expecting us, you probably don't have any backup weapon or even extra ammo, face it , you're done Salarian -
- You're right about that Krogan, I was just having a last drink before leaving and making my report on job well done. Wasn't expecting any visitors, especially not a Blood Pack gang. I don't have a backup weapon and I don't have any extra clips... So I guess it's a good thing this clip has 18 bullets, seeing as....they're only 18 of you.... - Grimbergrunt didn't have time to fully grasp the meaning of what Beezat said, let alone respond to it that a soft and polished barrage of "bangs" rain down on his crew. Before he could even aim his Graal Spike Thrower, Beezat had taken down all of his men and was no poiting his gun right to his head.
- Wait..- But it was too late, the Salarian Spectre shot his last bullet that went right to Grimbergrunt's head. But the bullet didn't pierce throught the thick Battlemaster's head. It merely cracked his forehead and fell down on the ground.
- Hahahaha, too bad Salarian, did you really think you could take down a Krogan with that kind of caliber ? You should've known it wasn't enough... -
The Blood Pack leader started to aim for his ennemy but a sudden chill striked his head and ran down through his spine. He looked at Beezat in anguish and saw he was smiling. Time stopped, and Grimbergrunt realized was that smile meant : The Salarian knew.....Beezat threw his pistol at him with strength , velocity and great precision. The spinning weapon hit the crack on his forehead and split it open, a large quantity of blood came gushing from the wound and Grimbergrunt collapsed.
Beezat put his sombrero back on, walked towards the exit and as he was leaving, he stopped, turned around, looked at the pile of bodies and said :
- Adios gringos, say hi to the Goddess when you meet her, courtesy of a pea-sized Eagle and Beezat Azitmei. -
Beezat and the weapon became legend after a mysterious, sexy, stealthy thief whose identity wil remain hidden, secretly watched the scene and sent an anonymous report with video footage to the Citadel.
- Adios gringos,

Agree totally. IMO, the Eagle is at worst the 3rd best SMG. Especially if you can take advantage of the weight glitch and use the heavy barrel.
I like using the Eagle on Volus(es?) for some reason.
Ever notice how every week, somebody creates a new account in order to keep asking the 3 exact same questions...then 2 days later they stop posting completely?

I wonder who is this drunken fool?

Really you just have to spend millions of credits on any of the "premium" packs with 2 gold+ slots.
I agree with above about Eagle being 3rd best SMG.
Don't listen to these nut-jobs OP, they are telling you lies & ineffective superstitions, I have the 100% guaranteed way to not only unlock the Eagle level 1,,but a way that will have it up to level 10 on your very next pack after opening it......
You have to go to rotten tomatoes .something and give Kazaam a 100 / 100 rating.
cuz genies grant wishes. 
^ you know at the final scene Shaq dunked a guy like a ball and said "wish not granted"

I'd agree that it is the 3rd best SMG, but mostly because it doesn't really have much competition. There's the Hurricane, CSMG, and then the others, none of which come anywhere close to those two. Unless you are playing a TSoldier or Quarksman, then I'd take the BPP over it.
I use it quite frequently as a backup weapon on characters using low ammo weapons, a Raider or Reegar, or are using a weapon that can't pierce guardian shields. I've never really tried it as anything but a sidearm. Outside of cover the recoil is bad enough that you'd have to be using a close range character. Though I guess it could give me an excuse to use up my large stockpile of stabilization modules. If you want a light "SMG" for casters, the CSMG is far better if you have enough upgrades to make the ammo capacity decent, and for pistols, I feel like the ARC, Paladin, and Carnifex are all better options, Plus the ARC and Carnifex are far easier to get. Unless you simply just like the gun, in which case all bets are off, do what you want. 
But yeah, the Arsenal pack (or whatever it's called) would be your best bet unless you have all the rare characters maxed out, in which case any of the 2 packs that give out two rares or better would be the same.

BPP seems better then Hurricane on Marksman because ammo lasts much longer.

No. Just no.

Regular Spectre packs are good too if you learn not to waste too many rockets, clip, ops and gels. ie. On PS3 it's been a long time since I've ever had to waste any money on Jumbo Packs thanks this tactic; http://n7hq.masseffe...e&platform=ps3#
Rockets; 251
Clips; 255
OPs; 245
Gels; 235
And I still have enough credit chits to max them all back to 255 with Regular Spectre Packs. I also only get level 3 Amps too. Because if you take a closer look at my consumables, I don't have any level 1 and 2 stuff. Only level 3 and 4.

Hmm, good point.

Spectre packs are pretty much all I buy, but if you are specifically trying to get an UR weapon, then 60K for 1 rare+ or 99K for two (aka 50K each)?
