Gantzar Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 After a couple high level missions, I never got over 15% in damage. I used to consistently use my 6 forma amprex to do high damage but its basically my only weapon that can do something. Are there any weapons (primary and secondary) that can consistently do damage? I know a bit of the current meta (Tigris, Tigris,Tigris) but after awhile those weapons just seem a bit boring xD. I'm not only looking at good weapons, unique and cool weapons that are fun would be great :)
Vance.Stubbs Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Here is a list of non-meta weapons I enjoy using on high level content: 1) Rubico. I have 6 formas on it and it became usable after I bought good riven for it (+crit chance, +mag size + reload speed). Damage becomes really high, even able to one-shot heavy units on most T3 Sorties with my Trinity. However, don't bother without crit chance riven or argon scope (which I despise). 2) Lanka with status Gas + Electricity build. No rivens needed, just use 3 dual-stat mods and go for damage, crit and some charge speed. Very fun, good single-target damage and some AoE procs. 3) Paracyst -- pretty good after recent buffs. Very good status chance, corrosive + heat melts high level armored enemies. 4) Buzlok also got decent after the buff -- get damage, crits and terminal velocity and it becomes a decent sniper machinegun.
(XBOX)ThermalStone Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 (edited) Nope. Anything that's good and fun at the same time gets merged Edited April 29, 2017 by (XB1)ThermalStone
LinaCrysta Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Harpak,it got recently buffed and after a good riven its literally mys trongest gun,it also has the harpoon which will always status and pull enemies to you no matter what,and you impale enemies to walls when you kill them
CeePee Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Since you already like the Amprex, switch to Ignis, it's basically an amped up version of that.
NinjaZeku Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Secura Penta with Tether Grenades is still lots of fun, even if it can now kill you (DE why). Similar deal for Kulstar, add Suppress and it might become your favorite Stealth weapon :D High-status Blast Sonicor / Staticor are a hoot, send your enemies to da moon! Kohm is a fun alternative to the one-shot monsters, especially with a Riven that'll get you to 100% status. Ignis is just a beast for AoE pwnage (and Container breaking, heh).
(PSN)robotwars7 Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 for all out fun: Zarr: it's a launcher and a shotgun in one handy package! all the fun of blowing things up without worrying about the consequences of self harm! what more could you want? Pandero: a true cowboy/girl revolver, it's both fun as hell to use and very powerful. Atterax: so many red crits with Blood rush/ Body Count it's unreal. also great at breaking containers.
MadameTorte Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Pox: Fun and effective, with proper elemental combinations can stun-lock enemies, personal favs are Electric Gas, and Corrosive Blast (build for 100% status) Buzlok: A solid weapon after the buff, as previously stated, great with a riven or without. really shines in capture missions. Drakgoon: Essentially it's just a Flak cannon ala unreal tournament, with Formorian Accelerant its a laser light-show Secura Dual Cestra: Far from being the best in class for puncture based secondaries, they hold a special place in my heart. Paired with multi-shot and a bright energy color and a fire-rate mod, the light-show continues. Excellent visually when paired with Mag or Octavia. The syndicate effect is also pretty nice. (it's like a pair of pocket supras) Ferrox: A javelin with a powerful crit-centric build. Essentially a bow that melts enemies on kills, Secondary fire creates as magnetic field that attracts enemies and keeps them in place, excellent when building melee combo's or using explosive based/crowd control secondaries.Angstrum: You will kill yourself, alot. but the Angstrum offers a slow charging salvo-shot. the longer you hold the trigger, the more boom for your buck. good for dealing with crowds and once you get the hang of aiming it.Khom/Khomak/Twin Khomak: Easiest way to describe this family is a shot-minigun. holding the trigger adds more flechettes to the volley making them fun to bring for relic runs (getting the corrupted infinite ammo buff)Zhuge/Attica: Repeating crossbows that can essentially be modded into assault-rifles, fun for "loud" Ivara and Bow-only Sorties. personal preference for the Zhuge. Extra fun if you equip the Ki'teer arrow skin for a trail of energy colored streamers on each shot
Dagnarok Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Sonicor. Sonicor ALL the way, If you know what I mean. -wink-
AandOE Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 A polearm with maxed Primed Reach, and the rest of the normal Body Count meta. That'll put ya up in 1st-2nd damage place, assuming you're comfortable with trying to out run the gunners. When you're comfortable with the increased reach, use it to snipe enemies way behind doors for a stealth approach to exterms~
(PSN)Gibberish-Jack Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Love using bows. Rag dolling enemies and pinning them to walls before they even know im there. Not gonna work on a lot of higher level defense missions but awesomely fun to play with.

Gorila_Azul Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) SOBEK Get Acid Shells, the syndicate mod and a good crowd control. One shot from that thing and everything goes boom. It's amazingly satisfying. Also, this one is not very available, but the Boar Prime with Blast damage is one of the most fun things I've got my hands on. The enemies just go flying with every shot. Edited April 30, 2017 by Gorila_Azul
(PSN)watt4hem Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 concealed explosivehikou is fun Ferox deals high damage and has a unique mechanic And i personaly enjoy the zarr
(PSN)Silverback73 Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Zarr: A friggin' hand-held pirate ship cannon. Zhuge: A .50 cal machine gun with a silencer, armor piercing rounds, and a kick. Atomos: It takes some forma, but with it's mob splash-damage, what's not to like about Godzilla's atomic breath on the end of your fist? Rakta Cernos/Ballistica/Dark Dagger with covert lethality: Get in touch with your inner Edgelord.
Obviousclone Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 I personally have been really enjoying the ankyros+seismic palm unlike other fist weapons ankyros has a fast swing speed on parr with sparring weapons and seismic's animations are actually practical and useful the sobek with acid shells and shattering justice is also really fun.
