Multipurpose Weapons

[RobotPrincessMachine]

I am fond of weapons in this game that do different things, or perform different types of attacks other than just one. Like for example, the gunblades. You can slash with them and shoot. Or the Athodai can either rapid fire bullet shots, or fire a devastating wave. Or Zarr that can choose between a cannon or barrage. Or Hystrix can change its elemental proc. Are there any other weapons like these that anyone can think of?

Off the top of my head: The Corinth is a shotgun that can fire airburst grenades. The Zenistar is a heavy blade that can send out a stationary damaging disc. Zenith fires at auto, or fires a wall hack disc that turns it semi auto with infinite punch through.

Looks like there is a wiki page for "alternate fire" that has a lot of what you are looking for as well.

THAT was the word I had to type in the search! I kept typing "guns that have more than one type of attack" lol

Trumna, normal shoot is like a slow machine gun. After getting 5 kills, alt fire shoots a volley for muti-explosive grenades.

The Ambassador has a really cool function where it starts as an assault rifle but can be folded into a sniper. Quellor can fire a shotgun like burst. Basmu has a secondary fire that isn't explosive so it doesn't cause you to get knocked down in close quarters and can still hit multiple targets with reduced range. The Fulmin can have its barrel shroud taken off to become a full auto rifle, with the shroud on it is a shotgun.

Tiberon Prime and Kuva Hind have burst/semi/auto fire modes, Stradavar Prime has semi/auto fire modes.

Tombfinger primary kitgun. Aside from being a nice battle rifle, its charge shot is great for AOE suppression.

Cedo, nothing beats homing explosive glaive alt fire. This thing is a beast

this may just be a visual bug but i saw in the plains of edilon another player mining gems .......but they had an archgun in their hand and it was firing the thin mining lazer beam ......so thats multi purpose right? an archgun for mining

The Ambassador is an energy assault rifle, and when you activate its alternate fire it becomes a powerful sniper rifle with 2 shots per reload.
