Low level players will want to look for an Avenger to swap for their Lancer because of its increased damage. All rifles at this level have poor accuracy and shots-before-overheat ratings, so players shouldn't worry much about these categories.

Mid level characters have a broader choice of assault rifles. The Thunder does the most damage, though this can reasonably be traded for the higher SBO and accuracy of the Raptor or Tsunami. Players should find a rifle that fits their play-style and stick with it.

High level characters have the greatest choice in assault rifles. The HMWAR should be the weapon of choice for those who can afford it, but the Geth Pulse Rifle is also a fine choice--if you can find one--due to its superior accuracy. The Kovalyov is also a good choice for dealing high damage.
