User blog comment:Tali's no.1 fan/300-M. The Worst Gun in The Game?/@comment-2130363-20110407170939

I believe it's true that this gun has more "coolness factor" than functionality. Compared to the other special weapons that you get, the Widow and the Revenant, the Claymore does the worst. As an infiltrator, I can cloak snipe anything with the Widow, it's awesome. As a soldier, all I have to do is spam adrenaline rush with the revenant and everything around me dies. The claymore for a vanguard however, it's ok if combined with the reload trick but the one shot clip as Arbiter009 said is pretty bad. If they had made the Claymore with a two shot clip, I would still use it.
