Mass-effect – Taming the Mattock in Mass Effect 3

mass-effect-3

I was wondering if anyone is using the Mattock in Mass Effect 3 and if so, how did you tackle the floatyness of it. The Mattock in Mass Effect 2 was well balanced and had very little muzzle climb or sway if you paced your shots but I am finding that the Mass Effect 3 version is much more unwieldy.

Did you add weapon mods to the rifle, just deal with it and account for it when shooting, or transition to a different gun?

It's not fully automatic, so if you don't spam fire it you can compensate between trigger pulls. It also does a ton of damage so if you're hitting your targets you shouldn't need to unload it. Also, Adrenaline Rush is your friend here.

(You can probably mod it to make life easier, of course, but I've not really considered it enough of a problem to put much effort into mine.)
