The Pathfinder Pioneer is an assault rifle in Mass Effect: Andromeda.
Description[]
The Pioneer feeds data directly to a Pathfinder's SAM, allowing adjustments to the automatic weapon's balance, recoil, and heat buildup. The first Pathfinder weapon was developed by Andromeda Initiative scientists to serve as a virtual extension of its user's body.
Features[]
- Like all weapons in the Pathfinder Elite Weapons Set, the Pioneer is not available above Rank V.
- The Pathfinder Pioneer fires in 3 round bursts.
- Despite being classified as a Rare weapon, the Pioneer only has 2 augmentation slots.

- The game incorrectly flags the Pioneer as fully automatic, preventing the Automatic Fire System augmentation from being applied to it.
