The N7 Valkyrie has excellent per-shot damage, high-precision bursts, and has a good supply of ammo (just as much in reserve as the Vindicator). It's an excellent long-range assault rifle, and can do in a pinch in close-quarters. With a good aim, the N7 Valkyrie double-taps enemies' brains out easily. Its weight is really its only downside, but its effectiveness and ammo efficiency means you won't need many other weapons—just tape an ultralight Hornet and/or Talon to the side of your head and you're good to go.
