Best Ultimate Weapon for Each Class?

[MasterWaffle]

What do you think is the best ultimate weapon, or weapon for each class and why?

I generally go by a weapons DPS & usefulness paired with the correct character build to maximize it.

My picks are

Swords: Excalibur (hard choice most swords are bad. Could pick anything really)
Lance: Dragoon (Massive damage out put)
Guns: Cataclysm (Multiplier on dex)
Cannons: War-Forged Gun (best weapon in the game. Nothing comes close to it's dps)
Gauntlets: Edit: Airsplitter seems bugged. Banana wins.
Staffs: Caster Sword (Double projectile= attack x2)

It depends unbelievably hard on the build you are picking. With the ultimate weapons you can pretty much build every stat and pick the weapon suiting the best.

Im using the Stormbringer cuz I did max DEX and TEC and got 6x Int X + crit mods.

I disagree with
Canon, and gauntlets

Carbine :
DEX+VIT+MAG Wider Hitbox( but cost stamina not really bothering imo. )

Gauntlets : Banana achieve the highest damage (MAG * 3 )of the gauntlets class weapon at the cost of reduced hp to 50, but well it's a rogue like you try to get hit the less possible so doesn't really matter, and you can chose any class you want in opposition at the air splitter that requiere a Strenght mag char.

yes this is why I said "paired with the correct character build to maximize it."

War forged gun's main thing is it's turret spawning. You barely use the actual weapon itself. Nothing comes close to it dps wise. The gun shot itself fairly weak.

As for Gauntlets Banana only looks like the best pick on the surface. It is Mag*3 with jump and dash boost and caps HP at 50. Airsplitter is MAG+STR/2 with 3 projectiles so really its, (MAG+STR/2)*3 and doesn't cap you hp at 50

Demons bane or whatever is good for me. (It's ultimate of rune lance) I run str and mag so it scales well.

Not sure the war machine turret dps beat carbine with all the buff from the dex combats ship.
And you forgot one thing betwen banana and the airspliter is critical a critical build is more efficient on banana.

I reckon caster sword is the most powerful weapon, it can kill moloch in about 10 seconds.

i have been using ICE WALL, scales 1:1 with MAG however projectile is very similar to WICKED's attack from BYFROST pushes and passes through enemys. great for large groups.

For banana how? The math works out in airsplitters favor critical don't really change anything since it can be applied to both. What do you mean? does air splitters crits not apply to all 3 projectiles?

Nm just tried it. Crits don't even seem to apply to air splitter. Seems like it's bugged.

As for war forged gun, Tested it out. Carbine+Ata Eye doesn't even come close. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=706088175

carbine maxed out+ ata eys and crit will only do around 2000+ damage. War forged gun goes past that with just 4 grenades. Their are several weapons that beat out carbine.

Lol. Best weapon is Forsaker mask :) Lvl 8 character with gold War-Forged gun easy run throught challenge lvl 3 ;) Just by spamming Hyper Beam (5x Dex damage throught all enemyes), and Cluster Bomber (20 Plasma grenades with Tec damage for 10 sec). For addition, War-Forged gun spawn turret (with Tec damage) each time when u use a chip. When i found a boss, i spam Angelic Augur (2 Hp per second) for 10-20 hp per second and Quadrocopter (3x Tec damage). And tonns of turrets as result :)

With this crasy build all monsters just die with one shot of Hyper Beam. At any difficulty :)

P.S. Ah, sorry :) For mana i spam Enhanced mind - 70 mana for 30 sec :)
