I actually find it one of the best AR's at the moment!
The DPS is just slightly under revenant, but it has a higher magazine. However, it gets more accurate as you continue to hold the trigger, making this weapon perfect for weakspot shooting! It's only secondary to the valkyrie at the moment (which is normal, as valkyry is an UR).
Of course, as it is an assault rifle, it keeps underperforming to other weapon types.

I like this AR, at level X it's pretty decent not as powerfull as the Revenant but I think it's a good compromise for power oriented classes and once the first five to six shots are fired it's got near pinpoint accuracy.

Can you explain how that gun works? Rare. The ME3 Harrier is basically the Raptor in MEAMP, just without the added scope. mid-high ROF, High damage, low mag size, kinetic rifle. I didn't unlock the X5 yet, as I didn't get a chance to do a few rounds to buy some expert packs yet - stats wise on Reddit, the X version compares fairly well with the Thokin, so that you get the same DPS over time, just with a kinetic rifle instead of those annoying orbs. I would have prefered to see it's damage rating higher though. The raptor is good I grant you that but it's no Harrier, unfortunately neither is the Ghost.

The problem with assault rifles and the lowe damage is that you have to stay out of cover with them. This results in an exchage of damage bewteen you and the enemy. You need to have a higher dps thatn the enemy, otherwise you betetr stay in cover. other weapons such as sniper rifles and shotguns are burst damage. Boom, back in cover. Less exposure time because of a higher kill speed.
Assault rifles just kill too slow to leave you safe.
Personally, I'm way more for a game that gaves you great killing tools, but punishes you hard for mistakes made.

Hyperion gun from Borderlands 2, anyone?
Reverse Recoil is fun. DPS is a bit lackluster though, maybe it needs some weakpoint bonus?

The weapon itself is pretty sweet, but has anybody else noticed how it looks like some kind of techy soda dispenser?

Well many people have been dying to get their hands on the "white avenger" that characters in SP have in cutscenes. There it is. I wish they would buff the DPS slightly, and it would be a really good weapon for many characters. As it is it's only useful for classes with very large weapon bonuses, otherwise you are just too exposed when firing it.

I noticed that if you have a squadmate firing it near you, the white light flashes are really painful for the eyes, I hope it's not the same when YOU fire it (I still don't have it) because otherwise it will become Geth Spitfire 2.0 for me. I never had problems with Hunter Mode, but these light flashes are really hurting my eyes.

Eithere I am half blind, or I dont see the flashes when the weapon is shot. I assume it's a kind of muzzle flash.
For the balance I think it is actually ok where it is right, especially for that fact that it has low recoil and becomse very accurate in a relative short time. Maybe a baby wee bit of damage boost like +3.

From what I tried in single player it felt good to use like a mixture of Avenger and Revenant I haven't unlocked it in MP yet, but created it in SP and it has replaced the Sweeper.

Unlocked it yesterday. Tried on my HSol. What to say ... damage is mediocre at best (slightly higher, than Avenger's one), accuracy is way better, though. What is good - it's magazine size: 75 by default. Still takes too long to kill anything without Turbocharge anywhere above Bronze.
P.S. Liked the sound and visual effect of firing :-))

It is a nice gun, I like the feel of it. However, as noted by others the muzzleflash is blinding, it needs to be toned down.

I loved Marksman, I love Turbocharge (though duration and cooldown suck badly, BW pls...) and I'm a simple guy - so I think I'll like this gun by the sound of it

Hyperion gun from Borderlands 2, anyone? Reverse Recoil is fun. DPS is a bit lackluster though, maybe it needs some weakpoint bonus? This. It needs to become the Ladyfist. Shitty regular damage but crazy crit damage.
