What's your most powerful gun?

[seven_stars]

I have a magsniper that does 850 damage, but you can't suppress it, so I use less powerful weapons. But I have a Breach shotgun that suppesed and is basically a rifle that does 600 damage.

Nothing anywhere close to those damage numbers! I have some pistols that do 90ish and just found a rifle (shotgun?) that does around 160 I think. Of course, damage isn't everything, damage per unit of time (dps) is what really matters unless you are facing just a single opponent and can one-shot them...that makes for a short fight...heh...

I'd always opt for the suppressed .50 cal Sniper over the Magsniper even though it does less damage. But I'd almost always get that head shot and take down the bad guys and gals in one shot.
And if they were standing sideways to me, I'd aim at their backpack and watch them blast off into orbit and watch it explode. 8-))...

I have a Breach that comes in at about 250 damage and I have noticed it's long range. I have it modded for slugs so it's good for deer too :P

I speced into Handguns due to Scoundrel Background

So a purple Razor that does 287 damage per shot without any additional boosts

At level 25 atm and I'm using the magshot. Headshot is usually an instant kill on very hard difficulty

Hard Target for sniping, ~600 damage, semi auto AA rifle for mid range engagements, ~200 damage, and Breacher for up close and personal, ~600 damage. Also pack a melee weapon for when I want to build up my Concealment tasks and an instigating pistol for when I want to use a pistol/save ammo on other gun types with stealth kills.

Those are modified guns. Maximum research and top mods applied. Plus skill boost. I play mostly a stealth sniper build, so head shots to 1 hit them as much as possible

Magshear. DPS is insane.

How did you get a magsniper to 800+? I have a professional magsniper, and I have all weapon mods researched. It's fully kitted out to it's maximum damage, and It only does around 440.. Is it a level thing?

[Nite69]

right now I just have a Baowolf with about 60 damage, I'm level 31 and it does fine, only playing on standard difficulty, I havn't bothered with weapon modding yet

and the spacesuit I am currently using is 164 damage resistance with +100 Bolstering based on my health level

Possibly. I think I was level 50 plus when I got mine. Plus several points in rifles adds a bit. But when I bought it at the Neon store that sells mag guns, it was already 600 or so, can't remember. Then I did all the upgrades. It's just a common level weapon. Nothing special.

Partly a level thing probably, but also there are different weapon "qualities" you can find. "basic", Calibrated and Advanced are the ones I can think of off the top of my head. Armor has similar prefixes with Advanced being the best (I know of) there as well. You can't mod a weapon into a better prefix, so finding an Advanced piece of gear then modding that is the way to go, and those prefixes matter a lot more than the 'color' of the weapon, as those only add affixes that typically swing values by about 30% of base in certain situations while the prefix raises the key stats in all situations (by I believe about 50% per grade, i.e. calibrated is 50% better than no prefix)
