Hey guys, was wondering what everyone's top picks regarding guns are. Mine's the Black Widow which, boosted with clip size increases and turbocharge give me 9 shots of PAIN Speaking of which, can anyone recommend a good AR? all the ones I've encountered thus far have been underwhelming mathematically, assuming every shot is a body shot, it takes my revenant 25-30 rounds to kill your average kett chosen. This seems...pretty inefficient.

As a "caster" Sentinel, I've been rocking the Remnant Equalizer SMG and the Alliance Sidewinder Pistol With some fancy augments and mods, too!

I haven't tested a lot of weapons, but I build today the Dhan Shotgun. I'm not missing my Claymore anymore. A lot of damage, amazing range for a shotgun, decent reload time, but a tiny, tiny clip so you have to make every shot count.
I love it.
I'm playing with Tactical Cloak right now. It's a lot of fun to get up close and personal with this baby.

The Black Widow is a still a favourite. On version 5 now and it punches a hole in anything. Have to test out more weapons as i go though.

Well, I can't remember the name because I use skill and melee weapon more than Gun ... I think it's Pathfinder Assault Rifle.

The P.A.W. AR is like the particle rifle except 1,000X faster at completely melting even armored elite enemies I'm using the valkyrie/black widow atm, the valkyrie has a very nice 130 damage per projectile (i think, might be 130 split between the two shots, but the proportion of the health bar going down suggests otherwise), I tried the paw and found it...unsatisfying, there's not enough hit reaction or kinetic feel to the gun, nor does it stagger enemies at all. I'm an old school kinetic weapons man, havent really used remnent or heleus research like at all. It does make a very good all purpose weapon though since it has no recoil. Oh word of advice, ignore the very rare halbard, it's just a black mattock with slightly increased states, which is a shame as I was hoping it'd be a successor to the cerberus harrier.

This seems...pretty inefficient. Hm...I carry either a Black Widow (I love that rifle!) and a Carnifex (this one I've upgraded with grenades instead of bullets!) or that explosive Kett sniper (forgot the name), because that can be used in close quarters, too As for other guns? I haven't used any, I am currently alternating between an Adept profile (Singularity, Douple-Throw and Shockwave) and an Infiltrator profile (Energy-Drain, Remnant-VI and Tactical Cloak)...don't have many points in soldier stuff and other abilities (wenn for those 6 first and then took passives to boost them) Also: The cooldowns on profile switching in combat are TOO LONG IMHO (makes really no sense to switch because you become essentially helpless for a time (or the fight ends before your cooldowns are up!)...and no, I am not in the negative on power-recharge! I am at 100% and I am wearing N7-Armor for my biotic stuff and have tech-recharge etc. on my weapons!) greetings LAX

For me it is currently the Piranha Shotgun. Due to its rate of fire, it deals more DPS than the Dahn Shotgun.

As a "caster" Sentinel, I've been rocking the Remnant Equalizer SMG and the Alliance Sidewinder Pistol With some fancy augments and mods, too! A few days later and I've changed! I'm still a pistol expert but my Remnant Equalizer now shoots little plasma thingies that explode. I retired the Sidewinder in favor of the Hurricane. The Hurricane that shoots lightning. I R THOR!

Haven't experimented too much either. I've tried a number of different guns and mods, none have really satisfied as much as the ones I'm currently running with - Black Widow VI (with all the wide-open spaces, the Sniper Rifle really is your best friend in the game ), Talon Pistol VI and Asari Sword VI. For a game with this many weapon/crafting options, I wish it allowed you to swap weapons out in the field without having to go back to a drop station. I feel that restriction more than any other hinders experimentation. The game lets you pick up and cart around a crapton of gear and weapons out in the field anyway, so why not...?

I love the P.A.W. Remnant Rifle. Nice and light, while still causing good damage. I also carry a Carnifex modded with a Vintage Heat Sink and a Beam Emmitter. They both seem like perfect fits for my caster Sentinel.

I love the single shot battle rifles. Mattock, Halberd, and Sandstorm was my progression through the game. Mattock felt a little underpowered and like the ammo reserves were too small given how many bullets the enemies loved to eat. Halberd got knocked off the list after I found out I couldn't craft my own with a vintage heat sink (what the fuck). Sandstorm carried me through the end of the game, but I hate the scope. Always had a Black Widow on me too.

Revenant and Thoikin have been my favorite, There doesnt seem to be any other automatic weaps that have a quick TTK
the Mattock doesn't feel right, and I kind of like the synced death animations that most weapons do to people, the Mattock just ragdolls everyone like ME3, It kind of bothers me

I can say I miss my Cerberus Harrier (full-auto-Mattock) and the Geth Shotgun (which could have easily been in the game as we gain that in ME2 (so it's kind of available at the time the A.I. leaves the MW))... Still, love the Black Widow (I still rock that - now on NG+ (haven't done all side missions...my character is lvl 60 or so right now...I'd really like to know how people reached 70 with one run (I only had so many side missions left and I guarantee that it would not have given me 10 levels!)) And I still DO NOT LIKE that ME3-Style weapon upgrading system (it makes no sense lore wise, why would there be 10 versions of the same gun? ) greetings LAX ps: Need to branch out in my skill selection (always rocking Remnant-VI, Overload and Tactical cloak (well mostly...biotics are so useless against shielded or heavily armored enemies and combat skills are boring!) is kind of boring!)

Do you know if there is something better then the dhan? I like the Pirana shotgun. Mods are as important if not more so. Also play style affect which might be best for you. Normally I use an AR (haven't found one yet that I really like) at distance then close with the shotgun.
