Yeah just wondering cus I'm noticing that the most expensive weapon for each category usually tends to be situational. What in your guys opinons is the all round best weapon for each category?
p.s., do ion cannon headshots 1 hit kill unshielded?
it all depends on how u play i gues but for me my best weps eech catogory are as follows Ripper (speed and multi shot) Uzi (speed and power up close) Terminator (range and speed) Preciosn Laser (critical and speed) Holy grail (looong range and 1 shot 1 kill unshielded) Destroyer (good overal nice speed and range) Standerd rocket launcher (power)
from what i have seen, everyone can agree that the holy grail is one of the best. Personally, i would use(not in order) Holy grail(overall power and range) golden mouser(Really good if using rapid fire or 2x power and gets a lot of credits) rocket launcher(normally a one hit kill) shotgun(REALLY good at close range, but takes 3-4 shots)
Ripper: Very nice damage, rather high ROF and ammo, with decent damage and range.
Photon Blaster: Probably better than the Vamp Charger, great ROF and range, great accuracy, but not as outstanding damage.
Terminator: IDK, it worked for me, it has an amazing range for a shotgun and it's lethal up close. I got the Zapper but it seems more like a close-range assault rifle feel.
Hailstorm: Probably the best. I don't have the Assault Bouncer, but from it's stats it's pretty bad, only benefits from Fire and Multi-Shot. The Hailstorm allows you to pretty much shoot enemies from around turns and on platforms - like in the Facility level, you can use the right jump pad to get the drop on any guys protecting the flag - just keep shooting while you're jumping near the top, it should hit them.
The Precision Laser is also worth checking out if you like to go for the head/crotch/butt.
Holy Grail: No doubt the best Sniper weapon. I one-shotted so many guys with this, plus the Fire attribute ensures death of the any Adrenaline-equipped enemies, like J. Rockit in the Alien Campaign.
Destroyer/Flame Thrower: IDK, the Flame Thrower inflicts self-damage, especially if you don't have that armor where you're invincible to fire damage. The Destroyer worked OK for me, but I just prefer to stick with other weapons.
Rocket Launcher: Yeah. The Ion Cannon doesn't deal as much damage, nor does it have the same amount of speed, the Grenade Launcher often won't detonate fast enough, the Ice Hunter deals too little damage and has too little ammo to be of much use, and the Acid Hound is sometimes just too expensive.
I think that the assault bouncer is better than hail storm due to its fire attribute and damage output. If you haven't tried using/buying it, I suggest you should.
this is my list: 1-plasma pistol 2-photon blaster, but I don't use it often 3-particle cannon 4-precision laser 5-holy grail 6-destroyer 7-basic rocket launcher, acid hound or grenade launcher, depending on the map
This thread implys there is a better set of weapons that are overall going to get you a higher k/d. Even if the waepons wern't decently balanced, it does no good spreading that sort of info around.
My opinion: Starter Ripper multishot+high rof, so lot of damage Sidearm Photon blaster: high rof+multi shot XD Close range Shotgun 1 hit 1 kill (unshielded) from close Automatic Assault bouncer Deals actually high damage (for automatic weapon), because its fire and splitting (in weapon info it says "bounce" but I say spiltting, since on contact it willl splitt into a additional ammo). Long range Holy grail, since its 1 hit 1 kill for unshielded enemies.Fire kills enemies who use adrenaline boost Heavy Destroyer nice damage,high rof Explosive Rocket launcher 1 hit 1kill for unshielded enemies
With ripper,photon blaster and assault bouncer range is a "little" problem, but just use "Spiral chanber" like I do
