Description
The Avenger is a common, versatile, military-grade assault rifle manufactured by the Elkoss Combine. It's accurate when fired in short bursts, and deadly when fired on full auto. The modular design and inexpensive components of the Avenger make it a favorite of military groups and mercenaries alike. The rifle has a reputation for being tough, reliable, easy to use, and easy to upgrade.
Acquisition
The M-8 Avenger can be found after the Reapers begin their invasion of Earth, next to the radio. Shepard picks it up in a cutscene if the player does not do so.
Player Notes
- Unlike its Mass Effect 2 counterpart, the Avenger now fires slower and fires fewer shots per thermal clip.
- The Avenger is a balanced and flexible rifle capable of moderate damage at any range. It is an accurate rifle, capable of hitting targets at long or close range.
- The Avenger is a great weapon for any class; it's lightweight, deals steady damage, is reasonably accurate and packs a considerable amount of ammo. To get the most out of it, equip the Avenger with a magazine upgrade and the extended barrel mod to allow a significant damage output without having to reload.
- One of the great things about the Avenger is that it has no major weakness, but it has no major strength. Its only real issue is its relatively low damage compared to other assault rifles. On higher difficulties, it might be wise to abandon the Avenger for a different rifle.
