Striker Assault Rifle

Available as random rewards from the in-game store are three new weapons: the Striker Assault Rifle, the Kishock Harpoon Gun, and the Geth Plasma SMG. This guide will show you the basic statistics of each weapon at levels 1 and 10, to help compare the guns to anything else you might have in your arsenal.

Striker Assault Rifle

The Striker is a fully-automatic weapon that functions more as a grenade launcher than a rifle, firing high-impact slugs that detonate on contact. The weapon increases its rate of fire the longer the trigger is held, which is devastating if the weapon can be kept on-target. In an attempt to market the Striker outside of the Krogan DMZ, the gun was designed to be fired by non-krogan, but its recoil tends to off-balance smaller species. Enthusiasts point out that the target on the receiving end of a Striker has far worse things to worry about than balance.
