M-76 Revenant: Only available to Soldiers as advanced weapons training, the Revenant has an extreme rate of fire. It is found during the Archangel recruitment mission just after reaching Archangel. It lacks full auto so isn’t as good at short range encounters. M-15 Vindicator: A very accurate rifle good for mid to long range combat which fires in 5-round bursts. It is however surpassed by later upgrades, which are more precise or more brutal depending on your needs.

Fully automatic and decent against anything. These are versatile weapons which work in a variety of situations. There are four different assault rifles available. The assault rifle is a great mid-range weapon with a high rate of fire. The upgrades available to the player depend on player’s class and on the player’s actions. There are still distinct weapon types, however, and a few upgrades to be found along the way.


Players will no longer constantly be running across slightly different variations of the same basic weapon type. The weapons of Mass Effect 2 are more similar to those of a normal shooter than those of the original Mass Effect.
