Best Aoe Weapon?

[Bixter]

So I started playing limbo recently and I guess I adapted to what I call the ״divide and conquer״ play style, so usually I hang around in the rift and hunt for priority targets. But sometimes there's those moments when you get that perfect cataclysm on like 20 enemies and you just wanna wreck them all with rift surge. The problem is with a soma, is that it's kinda tough to aim at all of them with impaired vision. So I'd rather have a good uncontrollable kinda giant AoE wep. I can't think of a better alternative to the quanta. Any ideas? Also, random question to top it off: is the quanta vandal available from trading? Cuz I missed the event

The Tonkor is a good weapon for you.

[(XBOX)Grihaly]

Ogris or Tonkor.

[[DE]Grzegorz]

Simulor. You don't even need to aim with this thing.

[Kthal]

Vandals/Wraiths are untradeable.

 

For AOE weapons, you could go with secondaries; Kulstar, Angstrum, Atomos (chain weapon), Castanas (Sancti).

 

Of the more popular primaries; Penta (Secura), Tonkor, Synoid Simulor, Amprex (chain weapon), Torid, Ogris.

 

 

Some of these are more powerful than others, but all are decent AOE weapons.

[KillingDyl]

Torid is amazing too. With rift surge, the AOEDOT goes crazy. Stack it with radiation or whatever status proc you want and you have a hellstorm waiting to be unleashed.

[Zinthir]

Tonkor is one of the best if not the best weapons in the game right now so go with that, plus it's fun to use compared to others

[007-MusicalMind]

synoid simulor

[Prime]

Tonkor... cant rly dmg yourself, deals a lot of crit dmg.

 

also no, to my knowledge you cannot trade the Quanta Vandal

[_Fracture8]

Lmao at all these explosives...

Amprex or Atomos master race

[blazekan5]

Jat Kittag

one more vote for Tonkor. Frankly speaking, I don't like grenade type weapons, and I don't really like Tonkor (just being honest. and it's personal, so Tonkor fans don't need to get riled up).

 

But it gets the job done. Especially in later waves of endless missions where effectiveness of most other weapons will fall off, Tonkor will keep going a little longer.. (i can sort of imagine bunny years and a little drum on it...)

Firstly, I use black energy color on Limbo to see better.

You can also try the Amprex, since if they are all inside cataclysm, they are close to each other and the chain damage should wreck them pretty fast, and provide CC as well.

 

BTW, does anyone know if the Amprex chains to enemies outside the rift ??

Amprex is nice because it hits so many enemies at once. I use it with Limbo to great success. 

 

Synoid Simulor is nice because no self damage from aoe and Limbo is squishy enough as it is. 

 

Tonkor doesn't do as much self damage so it's a good choice too. 

 

I would use one of those three, or better yet alternate between them based on mood/mission. 

 

 

Oh and as someone else pointed out already, although it's a melee, a properly modded Jat Kittag could wreck the face of everything in a properly sized Cataclysm to great effect.

[ragingdeamon]

any syndicate weapon and some punch through. dem explosions are reaaal nice.

[Ziegrif]

Tonkor, Secura Penta, Synoid Simulor, Ogris, Torid.

Those are basically your best bets.

[Kinetos]

Vectis

[Kaotyke]

1) Put down a Small-ish Cataclysm a few ways away

2) Rift-Surge and Rift Walk

3) Use Ogris from a distance on the enemies inside

4) ???

5) PROFIT!!

Amprex or Atomos master race

While these weapons are great they cap Out far sooner than the Tonkor.

[KingTaro]

If you're ok with melee weapons, Orthos Prime (polearm) and Atterax (whip) have a massive AoE range. Especially on slide attack.

Simply put, these melee weapons are mobile nukes:

[Evanescent]

 SYNOID SIMULOR.
