N7 Typhoon

The N7 Typhoon is an assault rifle in Mass Effect 3.

Description
The Typhoon is a distinctive light machine gun featuring a face shield to protect the shooter from headshots. Its power and recoil are so notorious that it includes a high-tech kinetic reducer to fight muzzle climb. Since the reducer tries to limit all motion by the weapon, marksmen do not engage it while moving and instead reduce recoil only while they are in cover.

Acquisition

 * Multiplayer: Randomly rewarded by purchasing an item pack after Mass Effect 3: Earth has been downloaded and installed.

Player Notes

 * The N7 Typhoon is the heaviest assault rifle currently available in the game, making it less practical for power-dependent classes to use. Pairing the Typhoon with another weapon is not recommended unless that weapon is exceptionally light or the player is not concerned with weight and power cooldowns.
 * The Typhoon can be likened to an improved version of the M-76 Revenant in terms of firepower and bullet spread, but with an even faster fire rate and less kickback. While in cover, it can be used as a moderately effective mid-to-long range weapon.
