[Gryffin]

If you mean S ranks, it would be Rifles, Shotguns, Grenades, Laser, and Handguns.

[Syl]

Handguns are the only gunzzzzzzzzz you should avoid, ESPECIALLY as a fortegunner (when rifles are right there =/)

[Cz]

rifles and dual pistols are your best friends. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

Rifles = SE blanketing, "taunting"
Shotties = damage
Grenades = Controll
dualies = Lower-level SE spreading, uh...
Mechs = Fun? Damage? >_>
Handguns = To make people feel pity for you.
Lasers = Shooting multiple enemies. Damage, I guess. Fun, too!
Crossbows = I'm not really sure!

[Corran1]

rifles and twin handguns are the two best. Some will say that shotty rules all, but its slow, cumbersome, and wont match the damage per second output of the twins. Grenades are good in certain situations, but only when the knock down (or stagger on large enemys) is needed.

Rifles for the SE lvl 4, and twins for damage and mobility

[Umberger]

Crossbows are an alternative to Shotguns...lower damage and I think SEs, but you can strafe+fire.

If you mean a specific weapon, the Phantom + Phantomline combination seems to be quite popular these days.

I dunno about that. My shotgun's dealing about 800-850 per shot now, and the rate of fire's not much slower than dualies. In my experience, shotties are definately the most damaging.

The downside, of course, is that you have to get dangerously close to enemies to use it.

Edit: Oh, Crossbows start out at a lower SE than shotguns, but end up with a higher SE. They start at Lv1, and end at Lv3. Shotguns, while having two more bullets, always have SELv2

Is that good or bad...? >.>

From behind!

Er I mean gunnzzzz

Uh... *flees*

But really though, laser cannon with mayalee prism is pretty fucking awesome.

[B0Bomb]

Shotguns rock close up only after you've gotten your bullets past level 11. The combined damage of the 4 bullets is very nice.
Twin Handguns rock especially if you are a cast or beast because you can get your SUV/Blast charged real quick while still dishing out insane damage.
Rifles rock for range and damage.
Grenade Launchers are good against Bosses and scoring hits on everything for the purpose of getting XP.
Laser Cannons fall under the same as Launchers.
Mechgun + Dagger is more for aesthetic fun and status effects more than actual damage up until your element bullets get to high levels, then the damage and status effects are your best friend. Plus charging your photon blast really fast.
Spears are novelty. Us fG's don't need no stinking spears.

[GreenArcher]

Crossbow is where the fortegunner will deal his greatest DPS, and crossbows are the besat way to spread SE. 3 Bullets as SE3 works quite well

Yak Zagenga, the ulltimate PA for crossbow. At level 30, its 165% ATP and 75% ATA. You will land every shot. At level80/fortegunner10/agataride/9* crossbow/female cast/mega power/ At full hp its about 300x3 = 900 damage. At insanely low HP, it's anywhere from 400-450 x 3 = 1200 - 1350. Now say you have a FT's level21+ shifta and zalure, we're dealing with quite a lot of damage.

[Golto]

Well if you had lvl 30 shotgun plus the same circumstances you'll do 300 each hit so thats 1500+ and not worrying about leaving hp in danger zone. If you time it right you can shoot shotguns just a little slower than x-bow bullets.

But can you strafe while shooting a shotgun?

[Miyoko]

If you're still talking about Yak Zagenga, then I think it's a lot safer to be using a shotgun without the inability to strafe than it is to be using a crossbow without enough HP to survive one more attack... ;p

[omegapirate2k]

900 damage with full health is nothing to snuff at either.

Some things are better left unsaid, Sychosis.

[Sychosis]

How am I supposed to market my PSU Themed Porno Magazine without some raunchy stories in there for the "readers" huh?!

On topic: I like single handguns http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

[CyarVictor]

Grenade launchers, rifles, twin handgunsm and shotties are good weapons. The one that I notice rarely any gunner use and is very effective: TRAPS.

[Vay]

Traps are teh awesome for fG's... Really, all the weapons for gunners are solid, just chose what you want for your playstyle. Me? I avoid rifles and shotguns like the plague... Rifles aren't that good of DPS - anytime I need straight damage I can just switch to the appropriate machinegun element. At 21+, with correct elements matched, with only level 2 shifta I can deal 260-270 per machinegun bullet. Sure, Rifle's "safer" 'cause of the range, but I like being able to move, and if I'm moving, I'm dodging, which means I'm not taking hits. Also, this is in MY opinion, any SE4 I need from a rifle (Virus, Burn, Freeze) I can just get from a trap, and there's no time waiting for the SE to stick. Everything else, I can just get from SE3 from my crossbows (Shock, etc).

Grenades are awesome for suppressing groups of big guys (Jarbas, specifically), and can also be used to "herd" small creatures if you're skilled with the weapon and the rest of your party isn't throwing things everywhere.

I hear Laser Cannon's pretty good with the ultimate PA, but honestly, I haven't bothered with the weapon at all.

[CyarVictor]

Grenades are like mini-suv's on enemies like kogg nadds and de ragon. I like how you can keep flinching the big ones like bil de vears and jarbas. It's even better when you have 3 fG's grenading enemies into corners or flinching the big ones http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif. The laser cannon's MayLee Prism is fun and great for herding enemies into corners like the grenade launcher except is has shorter range than a shottie. I still use that one.I do enjoy the mobility of twin handguns, but sometimes I'd like to just sit back with a rifle as the meat shields engage the enemies and there's usually a figunner and/or fG using machine guns and twin handguns.

Yea. I love traps, especially virus G and freeze G. I'm curious why burn shot inflicts SE better than dark shot. I think I wasted time and meseta and should have gotten burn shot. i know there's more dmg per tick with dark, just doesn't set off that much and enemies like the gol dova are immune to virus, but burn works on em.

[FluxGryphon]

Quick word on Machinegun with Mayalee Fury.

I just teamed with a guy who had it and used to VERY effectively to push Jarbas up against a wall, and immobilize the Gol Dova. Basically he did the job of a swarm of meleers blasting and flinching away the Jarbas. o.o Just from that I'm considering getting it on my FG and GT.

[RadiantLegend]

The rifle is your bread and butter.
