For many, the first Mass Effect will be the game with which they start playing the Legendary Edition. The collection of remasters of the beloved series includes all three main parts. And it is the first one most often scolded and continue to scold for her combat system. However, this does not mean at all that it does not have an interesting and effective weapon.

Firestorm X
This is probably the most interesting thing to say about the shotgun with only 260 damage. Not the best choice for the player. Urdnot Rex disapproves, grinds into powder and sends to the trash can.
Katana X
Damage – 283, Accuracy – 75. Ninth place in the top and a little less anger of Rex.
Fury X
Fury X is the last, most powerful shotgun in the lineup. It wouldn’t be worth it if the damage was a little higher.
Accuracy 85, 7.5 shots before overheating is impressive. The damage indicator would not have stopped at around 283 – Rex would have been pleased.
Tornado X
Without the Avalanche X model from turian supplier Armax Arsenal, the Tornado X would be the best shotgun with 307 damage. Its main problem is accuracy. Its low value can at some moments become a hindrance for Shepherd and the team on the way to defeat Saren and escape from the Reapers. The krogan is confused, but if necessary, he is ready to use this shotgun.
Avalanche X
The main advantage is the number of shots before the weapon overheats. It is also noteworthy that the speed of “Avalanche X” is higher than that of “Tornado X” by more than 10 points. If Rex had to choose between Tornado and Avalanche, his choice would be obvious.
Armageddon X
The main disadvantage of the “Armageddon” is the lower accuracy than that of the “Hydra”. However, the number of shots before overheating is compensates and leaves the krogan quite happy.
Hydra X
The Hydra X has an alarmingly low rate of rounds to overheat compared to the Armageddon, but its high speed puts it in a higher position. Rex rubs his paws, getting ready to use this “toy”.
Impulse Shotgun
Yes, the Geth Shotgun can only be accessed via console commands on PC, but it’s not the first such weapon on the list, so why not.
After all, in the game, many can only dream of getting the geth weapon into their own hands.
Impulse Shotgun has 330 damage, which Shepard can feel the hard way, given the geth “love” for the commander. Well, with a little tinkering, the player can buy this gun himself for his arsenal. Rex will only say thank you.
Sokolov X
The main disadvantage of “Sokolov” is that it can “bang” only 5.8 times in a row before overheating. Although he doesn’t need more. Separately, it should be noted that the Falcon shotguns begin their numbering from VII and will only get these weapons by the end of the game. Urdnot Rex will shake your hand for this. If you remember this custom.
Elite HMWSG X
When looking at the HMSWG line, it seems that all the elite versions, from VII to X, have luxurious, without exaggeration, characteristics. X, with 378 damage, 91 accuracy and 7 shots before overheating, just to the competitors on approach. It is doubtful that after seeing this model, the krogan will stand still, and will not rush to test it. As, however, most players.
