I use whatever I feel like at that moment in time. Even the starter pistol can kill strong enemies if you charge it up. I personally like the plasma rifle and the heavy assault rifle (those are the strongest guns I have so far) Sometimes I get lazy and just run up to the enemy and punch him in the face 4-5 times in a row until I can insta execute him.

I swear I've executed almost every single enemy in the game so far. They hardly ever die from my bullets.

Whatever is not out of ammo.

yeah i always feel like i failed/wasted and enemy if i dont gory kill it...even when im maxed on hp and armour.

my favorite weapons are the guass gun( both upgrades are super strong) the combat shotty and super shotty and the plasma rifle with the heatblast upgrade.

the guass gun with the seigemode fully upgraded two shots a Baron of Hell if hit in the head along with the Cyber Mancubus...everything else is oneshotted. basically is almost as powerful as the BFG and Chainsaw.

The super shotgun fully maxed is just an absolute monster, hellknights dead in 2 pointblank shots or brought down to gory kill level with 3 from medium range. everything below hell knights can be onshotted.

Rocket Launcher is rather weak but the lock on helps deal with the summoners and revenants before you get the guass gun.
Posessed humans: pistol/melee
Mancubus:rocket launcher
Imps: shotgun (both)
Caco: rocket launcher with lock-on/Chaingun
Revenant: Combat Shotgun
Baron of hell: Gauss Rifle
Hell Knight: Gauss Rifle/Chaingun/Shotguns
Lost Souls: Shotgun/Rocket Launcher with remote detonation and LMG with missiled
Demons/Horned Beast: Plasma Rifle with the stun mode
Spectres (invisible demons); Plasma Rifle with stun mode as well or Chaingun
and for Arch-Vile (Summoner or however they named that annoying warping demon): Shotung or Rocket Launcher

and BFG for massive amounts of enemies obv.... :D

i think that's about it.

I really love the BFG in this game, its an even better room clearer tahn the original one and the quake 2 version. using the ammo rune that grants a chance for bfg ammo to drop from monster kills basically means you almost have infinate ammo for it too

Pretty much this. I like the plasma gun a lot though.
taking a wild guess, but here's how I see it:

Zombies: Melee/Pistol (or grenade if seen in groups)

Imp: Shotgun

Cacodemon: Shotgun (both)

Hellknight: Heavy Assault Rifle w/Mini-Missiles (or Super Shotgun)

Mancubus: Rocket Launcher/Super Shotgun

Lost Souls: Shotgun/Plasma Rifle

Pinky Demons: Super Shotgun/Plasma Rifle

Baron of Hell: Rocket Launcher/Minigun/Super Shotgun (and if available, Gauss Cannon)

Cyberdemon: same as Baron, along with the BFG if available

Spider-Mastermind: same as above

ikr feels so satisfying to use it just the sound bothers me i mean i know it's supposed to sound like that and i know it was similiar in the O-Doom but a huge blast/nuke sound in the end would have been amazing as well
