Is it me, or is Charge the only good weapon?

[Elyenora Westknight]

All the others drawbacks are too great, charge offers very few drawbacks, and way more damage than any other weapon.

I run charge/spread, but rarely use spread outside of some run and gun stages, and even then it's mostly charge.

I also prefered the charge gun but i don't know the dmg comparision between the weapons

Yea same here. Charge was all I used once I got it. It's so powerful, love it.

[Elyenora Westknight]

Once you get into a rhythm with Charge it's so good. You can end boss phases in seconds sometimes.

Is charge really that good? I got through the game pretty decently with just peashooter and the shotgun and didn't feel like I needed anything else.

[Shadowspaz]

Charge is pretty nice, but I preferred to use the boomerang shot (Don't recall what it's actually called) on the more hectic bosses.

The devil in particular is way easier when you can just focus on dodging, and everything is hitting him anyway.

[Gilded]

there a few gimmick bosses that other weapons shines like spread vs expert cagney carnation or lobber vs grim matchstick and honeybottoms

charge is good if your good at aiming and measuring the charge time of the shot, if your a happy trigger peashooter or even spread works greats

i never used charge before but i'll give a try in expert

[Tursmo]

Alright, decided to give charge a try and holy moly does it do damage. I'm on expert right now and Bon Bon's final phase just got melted.

Well ♥♥♥♥ guess I should buy charge I've been using pea shooter and spread.

Yeah, it's BY FAR the most DPS. Seems like twice as good DPS as the spread at point blank range, while being way safer.

[Evito]

Really? I've been using the spread and just smashing bosses at close range, charge is more DPS?

[Tursmo]

Yes, yes it is. I also thought that spread was good dps and didn't even consider other options, but it seems that charge can just wreck bosses. Only problem can be that little enemies can block the shot, so it is not always the best option.

[Starit]

Pretty much, I think the only boss I couldn't wreck with charge shot wast the first ghost in the train, because he spams so many eyeballs, it's hard to land single shots. Other than that, it's kind of OP.

So yeah, if you want some extra challenge, do a no Charge Shot run.
