The Cyclone is an assault rifle in Mass Effect: Andromeda.

Description

The Cyclone's rapid rate of fire requires a short warm up before use. The rifle's mediocre accuracy is balanced by a massive capacity. As its manufacturer states, "With so many rounds to spare, what does it matter if a few don't land?" The Cyclone was removed from production years prior to the Andromeda Initiative's departure due to intense maintenance requirements, but some soldiers still swear by it.

Features

The Cyclone has strong recoil and may need stability mods for optimal use.

Vetra Nyx wields a Cyclone as her weapon of choice.

Strategies

• Combined with a Beam Emitter augmentation, the Cyclone turns into an armor destroyer. This combination is an excellent option for taking down Destroyers, Fiends, and Hydras.
• The Turian Havoc Trooper has a particular affinity for weapons with spin-up times like the Cyclone, turning it into a hovering infantry shredder given the right skillset.
