It does 1.25 percent bonus damage against armor, shields and barriers. It has a very low accuracy rate despite its moderate recoil. The semi-automatic Eviscerator has a base damage of 36.8 and a fire rate of 48 RPM. In Legendary Edition, it will be available for purchase from science stations. It's highly effective against armored enemies, especially in comparison to the Geth Plasma Shotgun, which tends to be a better weapon overall. The Eviscerator violates numerous intergalactic weapons treaties, so it isn't distributed to military factions. However Shepard can get their hands on one through the Cerberus Weapons and Armor DLC pack.
The M-22 Eviscerator, more formally known as the Lieberschaft 2180, was designed by a human civilian and has a unique modification that enhances its armor penetration.
