MechNexus Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 You know, with all the talks of Nerf this, That's OP etc, let's take some time to appreciate the humble weapons that are fun to use or surprisingly strong, yet are rarely ever talked about. For example, i've recently fell in love with the Jaw Sword. It's the only non-dagger puncture melee, and my god it's so good. It tears through Ferrite armour like it's nothing, can do the spin attack twice in one slide (can every melee do this?), and doesn't slow you down as you use it. And then there's my trusty Burston. It was the first weapon I got, and hasn't let me down, ever. Post yours, Forums.
EChondo Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 The Gram(melee). It's really nice looking with a nice glow effect(energy colour based) and it deals a nice amount of damage when modded correctly.
Kerethna Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 I really like the Dera. Miter used to be good but after the bow buffs they trump it completely.
MechNexus Posted March 14, 2014 Author Posted March 14, 2014 The Gram(melee). It's really nice looking with a nice glow effect(energy colour based) and it deals a nice amount of damage when modded correctly. I used to use it during U9-ish, and it cleaved through infested quite nicely. And then there was the novelty of swinging a huge neon sign around, because it shared the Plasma Sword's model back then.
Deidaku Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 BO staff.....oh wait No it's sh*t -_- Erm i'm gonna say aklex and single vasto.. The single vasto to me is better than the ak version.... :o
piece5 Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 The Tysis. I loved this weapon becasue I could PIN people with it. I have few pleasures in life, and pinning people to walls is one of them. I sold it because I needed slots, but it was fantastic.
S.Fayden Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Supra, and the Snipetron Vandal used to be pretty killer. Sadly the past updates have not been generous to their viability.
WERElektro Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Dual Cestra - If you're skilled, you can live with the lack of accuracy. I was surprised it was actually pretty good after everyone said it sucked.
Briareos Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Gram. I just about wore the edge off mine, used it a TON. Sadly overshadowed now by Galatine.
Imaru Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Hikou. Those were the first secondary I built and put any forma into. They still come out to wreck shop from time to time.
PenutReaper Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 The gun almost everyone used, the Braton. Love the thing. Use the Prime version of it from time to time, but I loved the original. Fun fact: The Braton is still my most used weapon, I don't even think I own one any more.
dyrak55d Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 (edited) Latron, Snipetron... Lanka, Spectra... Cronus, Machete... Embolist, Kraken... Boltor, Boar... Edited March 14, 2014 by dyrak55d
Sedated_Wolf Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Ahh underrated weapons. I don't even know where to begin.
Cranial_Enigma Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Tetra, Seer, and my old friend, Scindo. Almost the same build as me when I am messing around, the only difference would be my dark sword. First alert item I ever got and thought it looked amazing, it might get some more love in melee 2.0.
Sokina Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 (edited) Kogake will always remain in my heart. Then again, I don't believe in selling weapons, so I literally bought enough slots that I can complete every weapon in the game and not have to sell any. (I couldn't decide which ones to sell if I had to, honestly!) But definitely Kogake being one of my favorite "underrated" weapons. Edited March 14, 2014 by Sokina
XJHenry Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Even though it's relatively weak, even though the hitboxes are glitchy, even though it's a purely elemental weapon.... I still love the Lecta. More specifically, I love putting Contagion on it and melting everything.
DalaiLlama Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 I see a disturbing lack of ceramic daggers and dark daggers in this thread.
MisterUltimate Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Tetra, Seer, and my old friend, Scindo. I love the Tetra and the Seer. Properly modded, and without Formas the Tetra is a straight up murder machine.
Shirotsuki Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 The Dera is probably my favorite. It's so good, and yet no one uses it.
rapt0rman Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Braton Prime, Gram, Dual Cleavers, Kraken, and Hek. Paris prime Boltor prime lol
