The Striker is a fully-automatic weapon that functions more as a grenade launcher than a rifle, firing high-impact slugs that detonate on contact. The weapon increases its rate of fire the longer the trigger is held, which is devastating if the weapon can be kept on-target. In an attempt to market the Striker outside of the Krogan DMZ, the gun was designed to be fired by non-krogan, but its recoil tends to off-balance smaller species. Enthusiasts point out that the target on the receiving end of a Striker has far worse things to worry about than its shooter's balance. The Striker Assault Rifle from Mass Effect 3 makes its way to the Commonwealth. Perhaps a certain someone threw it out the airlock.
The Striker in-game functions just like it does in Mass Effect 3, with a firerate that increases after firing a couple of shots in full-auto. It holds 12 shots, and uses plasma cartridges, because I always prefer to use vanilla ammo. There are a few attachments like scopes (reusing vanilla sights), an extended barrel modeled after the original game's weapon mod, and an omni-blade bayonet. It isn't added to enemies' leveled lists, but you can find one replacing the Fat Man in Fort Hagen's armory, as well as one being sold by Cricket.
