Mass Effect 2

[Rod.H]

And the Cain, it does nothing for me. I point it at a target, pull the trigger - nothing. Treat it like a TF2 sniper rifle while pulling the trigger - nothing. I've treated it like pretty much like every weapon I've used in a FPS/RPG/FPRGS, from a pistol to the BFG9000 to the Fat Man MIRV even a darn Spartan Laser, nothing comes out of the 'point towards enemy' bit. Just how much 'ammo' does it take to fire off one shot?

It actually takes a good deal of ammunition. Usually one shot will drag it from 145%(full) to 45%. As to how to fire it, like the Blackstorm gun, the Cain requires a "charging period". Holding down the firing button until it fires will get best results.

Okay, so that's a 'no!' for trying to use it with only 48% in the tank, still the
