Best Weapon in The Game
Hello. I am just curious about what various people think the best/worst weapons in the game are.
I'm looking for...
  • The most overpowered on its own.
  • The most overpowered with certain mutations.
  • The most fun.
  • The worst.
  • The least fun.
Don't worry; I'm sure these are just some friendly questions and nothing will come of this.

I pretty much like every single weapon in the game. So the 'most fun' list is huge.

Overpowered: Hyper launcher, Energy hammer / sword, Laser rifle.
Overpowered with mutations: Laser rifle / Laser pistol, Energy hammer / sword with Laser brain.
Most fun: Hyper launcher, Plasma cannon (both with and without Laser brain), Blood hammer, Flare gun, Dragon, Cluster launcher, Hyper rifle Auto crossbow, Auto shotgun, Gattling slugger, Super slugger, Grenade shotgun, Chicken sword (sword only runs ftw).
Worst: Pop rifle.
Least fun: Toxic launcher, Revolver, Sentry gun, Chicken sword (lunge).

Most op on its own:
Hyper Launcher, Laser Rifle

Most op w/ mutations:
Hyper Launcher again (it gets a lot more op with that), Nuke Launcher w/ Boiling Veins and Racing Mind, any energy weapon with laser brain.

The most fun:
Pop weapons, screwdriver, disc gun, hyper rifle, dual or single assault rifle(s), flak cannons, bazooka, also auto shell weapons and auto crossbow if you are in the late game. I probably forgot to mention a lot of weapons here :D

The worst: Toxic weapons without eyes. With eyes theyre pretty okay. :D

The least fun: Sentry gun. Thats the only weapon can think of that isnt fun :D

The most overpowered on its own.
Probably any weapon that can kill a shielder through their shield. (Energy weapons, some explosive weapons, melee weapons(That being said, I'm generally bad with melees...))

The most overpowered with certain mutations.
Hyper launcher (Boiling veins(Please don't nerf!)) Iaser pistol, golden laser pistol, laser rifle (laser brain)

The most fun.
Explosives (preferably with boiling veins) Especially the sticky and nuke launchers, also pretty much any other weapon with it's weapon mutation. Stupid weapons such as the sentry gun.

The worst.
Things that can't kill enemies on their own (Toxic weapons) low damage (pop guns(try killing a dog guardian or the throne with the ticklegun) overly high ammo consumption (sentry gun, minigun, triple and quad machine gun without eagle eyes)

The least fun.
Doing the exact same thing too many times in a row, not sure any specific weapon isn't fun. Maybe the toxic launcher because it's too glitchy and rarely works at all.
But guys, The sentry gun is fun!

The most OP by themselves:Energy Sword/Hammer (sorry I main Chicken so prepare for biased opinion) and Gatling Slugger

The Most Fun:Gatling Slugger, Pop gun with shotty fingers (dont kill me), Flame shotgun, Gatling Slugger,and Energy Sword

The Worst:Lightning Shotgun, REVOLVER (how did nobody bring this up) , Nuke Launcher (almost always at least hurts) Screwdriver(although that one thing it can do is kinda cool) and all plasma weapons
