Best weapon of each kind (pistol,rifle,SMG,ShotG,...)

[vianna77]

What weapon would you choose to carry with you if you had to choose one weapon of each kind?

Everybody builds his/her character around a specific type of weapon, so the answer for "best weapon" doesn't make sense for other types of characters.
What if there was NO advantage of perks or whatever other thing that would improve a specific kind of weapon. What if you had to choose only 1 of each kind?
To facilitate, here is the link to the weapons:

Hunting rifle, nyeeaa.

[hghwolf]

So... what ? A pistol, a revolver, an SMG, a rifle, a heavy gun, a energy pistol, a energy rifle, a heavy energy weapon, a launcher, a shotty, a shoulder mounted, a melee and a unarmed type ?

Pistol - Light Shining In the Darkness
SMG - Nail Gun
Rifle - AM rifle
Heavy Gun - K-9000
E Pistol - Sonic Emitter Roboscorpion
E Rifle - Laser RCW
Heavy Energy - Tesla Beaton
Launcher - Red Glare
Shotty - Hunting Shotgun
Shoulder Mounted - Shoulder Mounted Machinegun, duh. It`s the only type.
Melee - Protonic Inversal Axe
Unarmed - Two Step Goodbye

Course, noone is gonna run around with that kind of arsenal.

[vianna77]

Here is my list:

• Li'l Devil - better than That gun on almost everything
  
• Christine's COS silencer rifle - Better than Ratslayer, comes with Silencer and Gobi doesn't and for assault I would prefer SMGs.
  
• 12.7mm SMG (GRA) - After the Silencer and the other addons, it's better than Bozar
  
• Riot shotgun
  
• K9000 cyberdog gun - Fully upgraded it is better than Fido and the detection features are great!
  
• Pew Pew or Alien Blaster (depending if you have the perk to find the aliens)
  
• Elijah's advanced LAER fully upgraded.
  
• Elijah's jury-rigged Tesla cannon
  
• Fatman fully upgraded - because it's lighter than Esther.

That's it... I don't use the other weapons, so I would be lying to choose one or another.

What about you??? :)

I run around with this kind of arsenal! :D I have one of each with me all the time.

[hghwolf]

...how are you carrying all that ammo ? Except the RCW and the Tesla, none of those share ammo types. Screw ammo, how are you carrying all the GUNS ?

[Schaefman27]

Personally I am a fan of the fully upgraded Anti-Material Rifle (GRA) with either incendiary or explosive rounds.

[kaffekoppen]

Ah, I made a whole list and THEN discovered we can't use weapon perks. That rules out almost all of the weapons I chose :)

The list makes less sense to me that way, as most weapons are affected by a few perks that you can easily have all of. Energy weapons user? Laser Commander. Guns? Grunt and Cowboy.

Mod your carry weight and bring as many items as you want with you.

[vianna77]

I'm not playing in hardcore.

[Mauno]

Hardcore is the only way to play.

Pistol: ALSID Fully modded M1911.
SMG: 12,7mm SMG
Rifle: Medicine Stick
Shotgun: Dinner Bell
E. Pistol: Pew Pew
E. Rifle: LAER
Melee: Chance's Knife
Unarmed: FoR
Launchers and such, never use them.

[Dosbilliam, Boring but Practical]

I half-agree with Mauno's list, except I have the AMR instead of Medicine Stick, a regular M1911 that's fully-modded, and a fully-modded Hunting Shotgun. Melee would probably be Oh Baby!, since I love me my two-handed weapons, and if I used Unarmed, it would probably be a Super-Heated Saturnite Fist.

[Mauno]

Good point, fully modded M1911 has a silencer. Combined with the punch of the .45ACP makes for a damn impressive gun.

[hghwolf]

You`re missing a letter in the abbreviaion for your unarmed pick Mauno. Other than that I assume you`re picking the regular LAER over the advanced version due to max condition ?

Fist of Rawr = FoR.

And yeah, I meant the regular LAER, not that durability is ever an issue. I prefer a larger magazine and slightly slower fire rate.

[Dosbilliam, Boring but Practical]

Plus the basic LAER can be modded, which is always fun.

If it isn't obvious, I REALLY like modding my weapons. :D
