Multiplayer weapons

@MeinChurro Does the Cloak boost only count for the first shot or more? If it's the latter, then I might ditch the turbocharge for now :o

@nexusmagoo Yeah it's with munition training. But if you use turbocharge, you can use 11 shots of a BW. The first 4 shots do 4*1072 points of damage and the last 7 do 1.35*7*1072 which makes it 14,418 points of damage. The calculations above are with the SR barrel X and the turian soldier x maxed out.

It lasts as long as you are firing from stealth. With rank 6 combat cloak that lasts 2 seconds, so with a black widow you can get stronger shots out in short burst, in my opinion. 

Which also makes the black widow better than something like an Isharay cause you can get more than one shot out during your stealth boost rank 6. With an isharay you have to reload after the first shot. I suppose a lanat would be good as well to use with a stealth boost since it has one extra shot, and you can charge for strong damage for that first stealth boost shot.

@MeinChurro I found a new character to mingle with thx😉

Turbocharge gives off 5789 units of damage in 4 shots (first 2 shots do 2894).

Cloak boost gives off 6217 units of damage in 4 shots assuming the rate of fire is in RPM (the first 2 shots count). Also, the first 2 shots with the cloak boost do extremely more damage (4074), which is viable in numerous situations. 

Edit: the numbers above are with munition training maxed out, BW 1 and SR barrel X.

Edit: switched the numbers, but now it's correct (6217 should be for the cloak boost for confirmation).

It really is a matter of preference, do you like to do major damage in a short time, or do you want to stretch it over a longer period with a bigger mag (11 shots with no reload time, so 14418 units)? 

It's been weeks since launch, they still haven't truly balance the weapons(the "balance" for MP weapons in patch 1.05 is insulting)... but they release "new contents" on multiplayer instead.
Feels like we are actually beta testers to test the MP. 

90% of the weapons in this game rubbish they tickle enemies they really messed it up. Only viable weapons in MP are: Blackwidow+ Vanquisher + Scorpion + Falcon Grenade launcher

You will break your mouse with the constant clicking to fire if you use any other weapon.

Completely agree.. that being said I haven't tested out all weapons and characters so far.. but it does seem that it is only a small pool of weapons and characters that a effective on golds for example.. I do enjoy the salarian architect but I don't seem him being good on golds where as an infiltrator or krogan rage build is prefect for them... although I haven't used my rage build since nerf

You should give the asari adept a go. Unlock annihilation with extra radius and vortex and those enemies on gold are nothing. Plus, the biotic characters have double shields (so 1000 at least instead of 500). Also, you could get assist points with annihilation but I'm not sure how much you can get in a match. Usually I score 30k with the Adept in a match, but that is with gold medals in kills and pistol so I don't know about the assist percentage.

Definitely worth testing out other characters... just haven't found too many I like.. turian havoc is enjoyable, I need to test different build to get the most out of her though.. any pointers.
