Bad Weapon Showdown!!: Vindicator Vs. Striker

I cannot believe I am saying this, but if I had to pick between the two, I would take the Vindicator. I have seen people do well with the Striker with a number of kits, such as Kroldier, BatSol, Destroyer, TGI and Tsent, but for me, it just doesn't work.
I did find a decent build for the Vindicator though, to my surprise. Slap it on the TGI, equip the AP barrel, maximize stability, and take incendiary ammo. Make sure you hit headshots against mooks. Overload either before shooting, to help popping heads, or after shooting, to get a fire explosion. It is - again, to my surprise - absolutely gold-worthy with this setup, as long as you hit heads a lot, and manage to make all three bullets hit.
I wouldn't miss either gun if they were to fall out of the airlock though, that's for sure!

As for the Falcon, I agree with GruntKitterhand, in the hands of the right kit, it is actually a very good weapon. I would add the smashguard to the list though. Charge something and bonus power doesn't kick in? Keep them dancing while your powers are on cooldown!

Vindicator is the worse of the two. If not for shuriken, its the worst weapon in the game imo.

Striker staggers bullshit Cerberus enemies like phantoms and dragoons. Any weapon that does that is pure gold. Plus it doesn't require precise aiming to deal with the utter garbage and nonsensical flipping. It's beautiful.

At least the Vindicator can hit things off-host.

The striker is just blanks, all day, erry day. Know what I'm saying?

creates a thread of which gun sucks more... where OP's weapon of choice is the revenant... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

seriously tho....the vindicator.....I wont even attempt to take on bosses when I equip it.....the striker can be really fun on the right characters..I like using it on the salarian bros w incid. ammo.

Once I finally got my AP mod, I tackled the Vindicator challenge. It's a weak, frustrating gun, and I don't usually mind playing with the low-level guns. As others have said, it's a step above the Shuriken.

I don't have a levelled Striker on the new account, but at least the Striker feels like a gun.

At least the Striker can kill Phantoms fast and keep Goons and things like that off you and your team. Everything else can face my Krogans forehead Mwrahhaahah!

Vindicator, it kills everything slowly. Yeah, it may work on a TGI though.

Cryo Falcon is also great on Salarian Engie with the Chilled Evolution to Incinerate, when you run out of Shotgun Amps for your Venom.

Indeed, I shouldn't have overlooked him. I just haven't used anything other than a Venom or Scorpion on him in quite a while. It's fair to say I regard the Cryo Falcon to be the single justification for that evolution, but it's usually one of the Human Engineers I give the job to. 

Striker + incendiary ammo + GI + stability gear + good map with convenient ammo boxes =

It is so good, it is almost

You can say the same thing of the Vindicator on the TGI
