Torid incarnon. Braindead weapons. easy to charge , beam of dead

[ACEsino]

Tenet arca plasmor

[Imperial City Guard]

Strun incarnon is really bussin. 140k red crits on incarnon form

Daikyu, because it adds lifesteal to my Syam without needing to spend a mod or ability slot on it.

Incarnon weapons and incarnon weapon adapters for certain weapons are the best right now. Tenet/Kuva weapons are still really good as well. Some regular weapons are good as well.

I'm not getting into specifics because there are a ton of weapons that are perfectly viable for Steel Path so you can pretty much almost use whatever you want for that. If you are trying to do those long missions with level 999 enemies, then it changes, but from what I've seen not many people really aim for that.

I would actually say that list is out of date because weapons with incarnon adaptors don't get updated with a new position on the list.

If you are doing a melee centric build with NIkanas, then yes, it is very good in my opinion. It's what I use with my Excalibur Umbra.

No matter how badly balanced the game may be there isn't a single weapon that would top hundreds of others. So this question cannot be answered and any given answer that lists only one weapon is wrong.

Not a single weapon, but like a handful in each category are leaps and bounds over the hundreds of others

Most weapons are unfortunately trash. However some can get stupidly overpowered with a good riven, which is what you gotta aim for.

For example, a tenet arca plasmor without a riven can get to the point of one shotting basically everything even on steel path. With a riven this gets even more insane. However that is just one example that isn't even taking warframe abilites in mind.

A good example is one ability that is easy to maintain and use, which works well for dmg amplification is Xata's whisper from Xaku. Which can be subsumed and put on other frames. It is kind of like a mini version of Mags Magnetize. Not as extreme but work extremely well. It can easily double or even triple dmg output of a weapon.

Your own custom built kitguns may not be top dog against the new stuff but they are easy to get and extremely powerful. You can reproduce about 75% of the normal guns with kitguns and the result will be better because you can adjust it to your style, from bullet hose to single shot, shotgun, beams, long or short range... as one example, I grew up on sobek & got tired of waiting for the prime, so I make something very similar but much stronger than the original.

I wouldn't say its the best, but Kohm has been putting in some pretty good work for me.
