Best weapon?

[TTV | DG_AU]

Been using breaker for a long time now, just wondering if there is any other S or A tier considered weapons yall use instead of the breaker?

[Grunnyyy]

There are plenty of good main weapons. Like the Scythe or sickle, the Breaker Incendiary, The Punisher Plasma

[Frostbeast]

Punisher, Slugger. Both are almost the same. Sickle.
Those 3 are good weapons. Shotguns have a big knockback effect against the mid sized enemies.

I would call none of them good.

Eh, best depends on the situation, loadout and faction.

But generally good primaries are:
Breaker, Slugger, Scorcher, Defender, Punisher and the new Sickle.

Is the scorcher any good?

[StormhawkV]

Sickle from the Cutting Edge Warbond.

No magical anti-all solution surpassing anything else anymore.
Pick what feels best to you.

But since you were breaker slave, you'll likely feel at home with SprayNPray variant.

Yes, it's decent.

It is. Has strong niche against bots because it can kill walkers shooting the plate from the front and does massive damage to vent weakpoints. Also decent against bugs but you can easily kill yourself with it.

Better for bots I think, but you could take it to bug missions if you like it enough.

[EstusAddict]

the new LAS-16 Sickle is pretty fun. Because of the low recoil you can easily target the heads of devastators and other medium armored enemies. For the bugs I use slugger or punisher. And Scorcher is also good

[Red]

The holy trinity i'm most comfortable with are the Slugger, Sickle and the Plasma Scorcher (bots only)

Sickle is essentially a Liberator with faster fire rate and potentially infinite ammo if you avoid overheats, good range, good zoom, little spread and good dps.
Slugger punches through medium armour and can break fences/storage crate doors. Good at popping off the heads of Warriors, Brood Commanders and Bile/Nursing Spewers. Since it's a pump shotty you can easily shoot-reload-shoot-reload to stay in the fight.
Plasma Scorcher usually one taps basic bots to the body, two taps automaton Striders through their front plate and can damage heat sinks on Hulks, Cannons & Tanks. Careful of self damage though, the small AOE that lets you kill Striders can also kill you.

Regular Breaker is much better than Incendiary, and Punisher Plasma is extremely inconsistent.

[Daliena]

Slugger. Pops weakpoints like nobody's business, and has medium armor penetration so even if you miss, you'll still do damage on most things. Can't penetrate Walker front plates, sadly.

Scorcher's good too, the explosion portion will fry the Walker pilots, and it does quite a bit of damage fast - but it also burns it's ammo reaaallly quickly, so bring a versatile support weapon.

[Thwartgorgon75]

liberator penetrator, scorcher, las sickle, plasma punisher varient. Depends on play-style

[Tritol]

Normal punisher shotgun, it oneshots all small enemies, 2-4 shots on medium enemies and it has little spread so you can hit multiple targets at once and even moving targets or targets that you missed will still catch some damage.
