(PSN)Galaxy_Cicada Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 So one thing I see quite a lot is people advocating the same 7 or 8 weapons for endgame, and everything else is MR fodder. Now we also know with enough forma any weapon can preform at least decently in the endgame. So with that in mind, what 'sub-optimal' weapons do people find they just can't let go of/would rather use over the 'normal' choice. For me, hate me all you want for it, I prefer my karak wraith over my boltor p. Something in the sound and operation of the weapon is just preferable to me. Mostly those across the map sniper bursts being hitscan allows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirukaChan Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Vulkar (although the Wraith version now) all day every day. I have the most fun with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingTaro Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Supra. Forma'd it 5 (or 6 times). That laser river of doom, obliterating everything in its path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raniu Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I use Attica, Glaxion, Grinlok, Simulor, Supra, Synapse. It's a game so people should play it for fun, not for efficiency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KittyDarkling Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 (edited) Please, correct me if anything here is meta: Buzzlok <- heaps of fun Anku Twin Gremlins Grineer boomerang (always forget it's name) Supra Lanka (Meta?) Karak W Mire Grineer chainsaw fists! These are all featured in my loadouts, and used quite regularly! EDIT: Also they're all fully formaed 3-6 times depending EDIT EDIT: Does Gorgon W count?

PrVonTuckIII Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 (edited) Burston Prime, got two forma in. Synoid Gammacor, about to put two into it. Opticor, no forma, but is still a reliable beast. Oh and Anku and Venka. Those are really fun weapons. I could bring my Anku up to DNikana levels of power if I took the time to get Auger Strike. :( Edited February 10, 2016 by PrVonTuckIII Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsukinoki Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 The only times I bother with 'meta' gear is when I am going to do long term void runs, as in more than 40 minutes/waves.Other than that I just forma and use gear that I find interesting. Lately I've been using the Stug, Karak Wraith, Kohm, Serro, Ignis, Embolist (These two are amazing when coupled with Saryn) and the Burston Prime.There really isn't a point in using the 'meta' gear unless you are going really far into the void or the raids, besides those two times most of the weapons will handle themselves in most situations if you know the weapon.

Miser_able Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I have a braton prime that I use two different builds on depending on what I'm doing. The first is a status and damage build for high level missions. The second is a medium damage high firerate build for fun (speed trigger,shred,vile acceleration,and the new event fire rate mod) I've gotten some compliments and flak for this build but it's still fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kontrollo Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 (edited) I prefer normal Boltor over the Prime actually, the latter is mostly for bling. So unlike a lot of people, I'm glad there's now a Telos version of it, too. Gorgon Wraith is mostly useful as a status gun these days, but hasn't lost any of its appeal to me. It's great to have some fun with, see this post, for example. ;) Oh, and Venka. Love those claws. Edit: I have a braton prime that I use two different builds on depending on what I'm doing.

Specific.Zod Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 There is no meta weapon, just forma enough or not. But I have to say panthera is absolutely sh1t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)FISTO ROBOT0 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Idk if it's endgame or not, I use whatever I want unless it's sortie then I use Boltor prime. But I really enjoy the flux rifle!!! Even when combustion beam mod stops killing people I like to watch the people I shot blow up ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riaxyron Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Attica, Buzlok, Braton( the gun feels balanced and well-designed imo), Latron( enjoy the semi-auto), Scoliac, Anku and the Nikana as well(even though I have Dragon Nikana) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)obsidiancurse Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I'm finding the lenses more restrictive than efficiency at the minute. Love my Atmos but it has a zenerik lens and I'm currently done with that and levelling naramon. Don't want to waste a 40 plat lens, so using sonicor instead.

Kuestenjung Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 High level content is no endgame and I use whatever I want at the moment, nothing prefered, except for melee, I love my Mios/Destreza/Tekko/Redeemer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My go-to primary for stealthy missions like spy im in the middle, im an efficiency freak, but i dont only use meta weapons, my first weapon i forma'd the S#&$ out of was the braton P, As mogamu said in one of his videos "It looks so good and it sounds amazing" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatantfool Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I play with what I like. I rarely Forma stuff. I just don't care that much about the Metagame that I would number crunch. It is a serious case of laziness more than anything. I'd be more inclined to forma all my stuff if Forma was more potent, but making it more potent would probably lead to issues in the current state of the game. Thing is, I wont have fun with a gun that just sucks at killing. I always played Warframe desiring to go fast and mow down mobs. When the game wanders too far from that I lose interest immediately. I've almost completely stopped caring about Sorties because I personally find them incredibly boring. For me to love a Weapon it has to be equal parts gorgeous and effective. I LIKE the Karak but I wouldn't be caught dead using it anywhere outside of Earth or Mercury. I wont have any fun at all if I let a gun inflate the time it takes to kill a baddie.

PnOyLeeT Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Chroma and Talon as secondary pistol is freaking amazing together since talon self dmg the user a chroma with its 2nd and 3rd ability active it will buff its armor and output dmg at 800% instantly or kill it self in the process hahaha lately i find these tanky frame way more fun than spam casters .... then a Rhino Prime with Staticor haha...
