Favorite Weapon Class

[Nomahend]

IMO the list should be as follows

Partisans/Swords
Daggers/Double Sabers
Slicers/Sabers
Double Swords/Katanas
Fists/Claws
Wands/Rods/Canes
Photon Launchers/Shots
Handguns/Rifles/Mechguns

I like weapons that surpass their weapon type, like Spread needle, Snow Queen, and Gi-Gue Bazooka.

If weapons were to be grouped by similarities, then it would be like this:

Partisans / Swords
Paired Swords / Daggers / Double Sabers / Mechguns
Slicers / Shots
Sabers / Fists / Claws / Katanas
Wands / Rods / Canes
Launchers / Handguns / Rifles

However, due to certain differences in animations (such as HUcaseals, FOmarls, Males/Females, etc), you can't quite group them like this.

Eh? How are you nuts trying to group them? By number of hits they do per enemy or number of enemies they can hit?

[PJ]

Hunter: Sword
Ranger: Shot (lol Spread Needle shot? Not )
Force: Rod

Skorpius got it.

Melee range multi-enemy weapons
Single enemy multi-hit weapons
Close/mid ranged multi-enemy weapons
Single enemy melee weapons
Force weapons
Single enemy ranged weapons

I still like weapons that exceed their class though:
Snow Queen - LONG-ranged multi-enemy, freezing shot
Gi-Gue Bazooka - Mid-long range multi-enemy, unreduced special, abnormally high ATP
Spread Needle - Close-mid ranged multi-enemy, unreduced special, fast rate of fire
Yas9K - LONG-ranged single enemy multi-hit

They're all weapons that I want to have.

Uh, Launchers hit multiple enemies if they're lined up. It should be with Slicer while Shots are on their own or with Needles.

[REJ-]

Slicers and Shots stay in the same category. Perhaps Launchers could be a unique type on their own. And needles are Rifle-Shot Hybrids with Mech range.

[GrumblyStuff]

Less than mechgun range, actually.
