Which weapons to keep and which to get rid of?

[KatsuMakane]

So im running out of slots (and plat) so i decided to start getting rid of weapons i have gotten to 30 and I will probably never use, but I need some help, in my screenshots, what is worth keeping and what is trash? really appreciate this guys! also if I have a prime version of a warframe, should I throw out the normal version since prime is usually always better? thanks again!

My criteria for tossing a weapon

- Do I have a spare BP?

- Did it come from an event?

 - Did it come from an Assassination group?

- Is it quest related?

- Do I need it to make another weapon?

- Does it have a Prime variant?

Going by the screenshots provided, I'd toss the following

Braton, Ceramic Dagger, Amphis, Cronus, Dark Sword, Dual Heat Sword, Dual Skana, Fragor, Gammacore, Heat Sword, Kraken, Glaive, Latron, Orthos, Kunai, Sicarus, Skana, Spira, Vasto, and Twin Gremlins.

The reason I suggest these ones is because they're easy to regain, are maxed out, or have better Prime variants.

im just save the ones wich i use most.
favourites into too, no point to save a weapon ( and waste slot for future great weapons ) with those who dont never use.
its all abouth personal preferences and playstyle.

MagPrime has the right idea in their post.

Another thing I consider is if a weapon has a prime or other variant is there anything unique about the base weapon that makes it worth keeping.

in my opinion,weapons to get rid of are:akmagnus,braton,cestra,cronus,furis,mire,kraken,sicarus,seer,and vasto,

seer and cronus you can re get them from vor,everything else is from the market.Anything else keep.

If you play conclave you might want to hold on into the original version.  Otherwise toss them.

Regular Braton, regular Boltor, Cestra, Heat sword, regular Latron. Those would be "MY" first choices in tossing them in the bin. As for the normal versions of Warframes, get them to 30 first, and if you have the prime version, you can delete it. There is no real reason to keep the extra stuff unless you want different polarities on another frame or weapon. I am a collector however, and have kept everything Ive ever gotten...... I am ashamed at how much Ive spent on slots though...

As to Prime Warframes; if you have the slots, keep the vanilla version.  If not, toss'em.  As far as I know, there are no Vanilla Warframes with better base stats over it's Primed version. 

If you've heavily invested in a Warframe (Forma, Potato) then I'd suggest holding onto it.

Or quest items/Warframes.

Wow thanks everyone for all the advice! i definitly have a better idea of what to toss and what too keep! props to all of you!

[mosaickle]

I have a simple criteria for weapons (and what to get rid of):
Aside from leveling, have you used the weapon in the past month? If no, get rid of it. Life is too short to have you spend time with people you don't actually like. Likewise, weapon slots are too short of an amount for you to use it on weapons you don't use.

Also worth keeping any weapon that is a crafting ingredient for other weapons.
