I have to admit I was surprised just how good it feels to fire Strun (Prime), dunno whether it’s due to sound or just the ridiculous amount of pellets flying out but it really feels like a proper video game shotgun. I’d maybe even put it above corinth!
I also want to like the opticor so much but it lacks a bit of that “laser ooompfh”, can’t believe mass effect is still the best game when it comes to laser weapon effects ^^
Lately, Dual Toxocyst Incarnon is that satisfying weapon for me. It synergizes so well with its own built-in headshot proc (Frenzy). Seeing the Incarnon charge up fully after 3 headshots brings me joy. Seeing it light up a group of enemies because they dared to stand too close to my target makes me happy too. It’s my happy gun 🙃
Oh man the dual toxocyst is so damn fun now. I have a riven for it and it just sprays monstrous red crits everywhere. It is utter trash without the incarnon adapter though.
Ahhh, lucky! I want to spray red crits too! I’m gonna have to look through my pile of riven mods now.
I actually saw the hype about DT’s incarnon adapter on /r/Warframe, and that’s also how I learned about the Frenzy proc. I had to rebuild Dual Toxocyst when I got the adapter. The wait just to get enough Mutagen Mass was excruciating!
It’s a beast. You don’t need to chase a riven for it, I just had one sitting in my inventory.
Great for Archon murder too.
Lately it’s Exergis for me. The Kahl mission did it bad, the gun feels so good after some proper modding. It’s like Felarx but with extra oomph
All hek all the time
I’m still fairly new, but the weapon I have that I love most is Xoris.
Boltor for sure, being able to pin a row of enemies to the wall 30ft up is cathartic.
Honorable mentions. The new ocucor is satifying because it clears like no other. Corufell is fun because it provides a heavy attack windup that i wish some guns had. Lastly maybe lenz because you create these giant bubbles for all to see. Small shoutout to sonicor
Recently it’s Torid incarnon, and theres absolutely no contest. I LOVE that weapon. Deleting all fools in the same zipcode is just so much fun! Also, since I’m a console peasant and also can’t aim, charging off body shots is the best thing ever for me. Absolute favorite of mine - don’t use any other weapon unless I have to :)
I love a good beam weapon. I knew the first time I shot the incarnon mode on that thing that it would be my new favorite primary.
I’ve gotten a handful of different incarnon Genesis weapons, but I keep coming back to the Miter. I just love how it feels overall a bit “chonkier” than the Latron (which is still great; don’t get me wrong). It also helps that I have a riven for one but not the other.
I’m also still a fan of the Kuva Bramma. It’s my go-to for Zariman exterminate bounty runs.
Tie between Stahlta with Shock Rifle skin and Quellor. They both have great charge sounds and discharge sounds and deal extreme damage, and the Stahlta has a fantastic cloud of particles on the radial effect.
Fun fact, Quellor has the highest single hit damage in the game, and the Stahlta the same for radial damage. Also, Quellor has forced impact within 9m and infinite body punchthrough out to 18m. It’s Shotgun Nataruk.
For me, it has to be a combination of both the way the weapon feels and the way it performs.
For example, Opticor looks, sounds, and feels great, but the damage has been powercrept by new weapons, and it feels really bad when something survives it. Everything should die to it in one shot.
Currently, the weapon that fits all of these the most is Latron Prime. After getting Incarnon Genesis, it’s power is so high that if I take the time to aim for the enemy’s weakspot, it usually dies in one shot. If not, thanks to Double Tap, you get the satisfaction of seeing your damage steadily increase until the target is well dead and done.
I’m hoping the new augment for Battacor will push it back to my #1 weapon.
My Dragon Nikana. Also my second oldest melee, if not the oldest.
I have used the dragon nikana on khora for years and it is the only weapon I found satisfying to use without attack speed and reach. And this is only with a cc, dmg, dmg to grineer riven and a negative.
I have other great rivens for khora but up until recently most weapons didn’t feel that great. Endura, feels like swinging a radio antenna; serro, like using a stick; okina, range too low, dex dakra, combo doesn’t feel as smooth.
Now I use a sibear with incarnon and a dmg, cd and a negative riven. I did have to put an attack speed mod, but the damage is so high I can replace one damage mod without much loss.
I haven’t been able to find a weapon that matches the feel of a trumna alt fire headshot
Kuva Ogris. I also really like Shedu with one toxin mod to produce gas and corrosive. If you use a frame with nourish for viral, the damage is amazing. Main weapon on my revenant.
How do you like this compared to the viral slash build?
Felarx (in both forms) now and forever.
Felarx reload is something special
Tigris. It comes in two flavors, BLAM and blam…blam
Nataruk is my all time favourite. Love the sound effects (especially the THUNK when it hits an enemy), the wide arrow hitbox is very forgiving for the fast pace of the game, and the endless body punchthrough just makes it very satisfying to use
In the past my favourite used to be Stahlta, for the sound effects and heavy feelings of the hits, whether primary or alt fire. I do still love it even if I use it less now
Honourable mention for the Miter Incarnon, which has been my absolute favourite of all the new adapters so far. Alongside the melee glaives, Cedo, and Phahd, I just seem to have a thing for bouncing glaives
