What go to weapons is everyone using?

[MoonC A T]

Mine

1 Flak (carry a mining variant and a powerful variant)
2 Thermo gun (destroys in Rifts)
3 Coil Gun
4 Railgun (mostly for HRA)

[Pappy]

1. Flak - just an all around great gun for so many different reasons.
2. Pulse Laser - The highest energy damage weapon you can get as long as you have good aim.
3. Auto Cannon - Because it sounds cool.

[Notoshy]

Flak as main-weapon. Beside that maybe Coilguns or Laser.... it depends on the Ship and situation.

Flak (Penumbra variant or whatever its called)

Autogun because I love fast firing machine guns in games.

Laser beam (Desintigrator version)

That's pretty much all I use. Really want to get a Final Reckoning

[Calmputer]

For exploration:
Coil Gun. Good range, good kinetic DPS
Beam Laser. 50/50 kinetic/energy dps. excellent for use with auto-aim (I play with controller)
Flak Cannon. good AOE, excellent for mining nodes.

For Rifts:
Coil Gun. Kinetic DPS.
Pulse Laser. Energy DPS,
Autogun. Wrecks in close range and sounds awesome.

Does anyone use the scattergun?

[Nopax]

you mentioned weapons - but remember that ship perks are important as well --
for example your build of a a thermo gun, coil gun, and rail gun is perfect for the scout ship

sniping from a distance and guided missiles close range is a easy mode to steam roll the game ^^

Yes, but only if its the bloodstar repeater version. Otherwise the hold to charge and fire mechanic doesn't work for shotguns

I'll have to look for one of those. Do they drop at Lvl 30? Are they superior (red)?
