Weapon

Why It Is One of the Best

Best Use

Overheat Rifle (Legendary)

With 1470 ATK, the Overheat Rifle delivers exceptional sustained DPS, reaching 6618 base damage and climbing beyond 16,000 DPS with the weapon swap technique. Instead of using a traditional magazine, it fires continuously until it overheats, leaving you exposed during its cooldown. Quickly switching to another weapon resets the overheat, allowing almost nonstop fire if managed correctly. It works especially well as the centerpiece of high damage builds and pairs perfectly with passive damage sources.

Its biggest strengths are unmatched damage output and excellent performance against both bosses and large enemy groups. The tradeoff is that it requires careful heat management and comes with expensive endgame crafting costs.

Endgame raids, tower bosses, and fully optimized loadouts.

Terraprisma (Legendary)

Although its base ATK is only 150, Terraprisma reaches an effective DPS of around 6750 by summoning up to nine floating rainbow swords that automatically attack nearby enemies. Once summoned, the swords remain active even after switching weapons, letting them deal passive damage while you keep shooting, manage your Pals, or use your grapple.

Since it does not consume ammo, it adds free damage to almost any build and performs well in every type of content. The only real drawback is that its durability depletes fairly quickly, so regular repairs are needed. Combined with weapons like the Overheat Rifle, it can push your total damage beyond 21,000 DPS, making it one of the strongest and easiest Legendary weapons to use.

Almost any situation, especially alongside your primary weapon for massive combined DPS.

Why It Is Worth Using

Best Use

Charge Rifle (Legendary)

With an impressive 15,000 ATK and around 9414 DPS, the Charge Rifle is built for dealing massive burst damage to a single target. It fires powerful energy shots from long range while maintaining solid sustained damage thanks to its relatively quick firing cycle for a weapon of this strength.

Charge Rifle shines in boss fights where landing heavy hits is the priority. The only downside is its expensive crafting requirements, and it is more specialized than full automatic weapons in general combat.

High priority targets, tower bosses, and burst damage phases during raids.

Energy Shotgun (Legendary)

The Energy Shotgun combines 482 ATK with roughly 8474 DPS, making it one of the strongest close range weapons in the game. Compared to standard shotguns, it offers a larger magazine, faster fire rate, and excellent damage output. It is highly ammo efficient and performs especially well when clearing crowded areas like the Oil Rig. Its only weakness is the noticeable damage drop at longer distances, so staying within its effective range is important.

Dense enemy groups, base defense, Oil Rig runs, and aggressive close range combat.

Plasma Cannon (Legendary)

Featuring 13,000 ATK and about 5886 DPS, the Plasma Cannon launches massive plasma projectiles that deal heavy damage while covering a wide area. Fast projectile speed makes it reliable at medium to long range, and its area damage is excellent for controlling groups of enemies.

Its slower fire rate and unique ammo requirements are the main drawbacks, but the payoff is tremendous burst damage against clustered targets.

Raids, Oil Rig missions, and clearing large groups of enemies.

Advanced Bow (Legendary)

The Advanced Bow delivers 8700 ATK and around 5219 DPS, giving you powerful charged shots with exceptional range. It is an excellent choice for long distance combat, offering strong damage while remaining ammo efficient since it does not always rely on gunpowder.

Its quiet attacks also make it useful when you want to avoid attracting attention. To get the most from it, you will need accurate aim and patience because each shot requires charging.

Long range sniping, exploration, and encounters where stealth or distance gives you an advantage.

Best Use

Multi Guided Missile Launcher (Legendary)

Keeping fast moving enemies in your sights is much easier with the Multi Guided Missile Launcher. Its guided missiles automatically track targets, delivering high attack power and around 5017 DPS, with even higher damage possible through weapon swapping.

Since each shot releases multiple homing projectiles, it is excellent for clearing groups without needing perfect aim. The tradeoff comes from its expensive ammunition and cooldown between volleys, so every shot counts.

Raids, boss fights with additional enemies, and Oil Rig clears.

Laser Gatling Gun (Legendary)

When nonstop pressure is what you need, the Laser Gatling Gun does not disappoint. It offers 689 ATK and roughly 4992 DPS, firing a constant stream of laser rounds that quickly wears down enemies and keeps hordes under control.

It performs best during extended battles where maintaining steady damage is more valuable than landing a single powerful hit. Just be prepared for its heavy ammo consumption, as keeping it firing requires plenty of resources.

Long battles, crowd control, and sustained damage against multiple enemies.

Vortex Beater (Legendary)

The Vortex Beater stands out with its unique design, blending projectile attacks with melee style combat while delivering 450 ATK and around 5550 DPS. Instead of focusing on one specific role, it provides dependable performance across a variety of situations, making it an enjoyable weapon to keep in your loadout.

While it cannot match the specialized strengths of dedicated firearms, its versatility gives it plenty of value as a reliable backup option.

Mixed combat situations and as a dependable secondary weapon.

Why It Is Worth Using

Best Use

Legendary Assault Rifle

The Legendary Assault Rifle is a dependable all around weapon with 560 ATK, around 3253 DPS, and a 30 round magazine. Its balanced stats make it effective at almost any range, while its good ammo economy and easy handling make it simple to use.

 Although it cannot match the raw damage of the strongest God and S Tier weapons, it remains one of the best choices for everyday combat.

Daily use, progression, and balanced loadouts.

Laser Rifle (Legendary)

Reliable and easy to handle, the Laser Rifle delivers around 4250 DPS with consistent laser based attacks. It performs well in medium range fights and offers steady damage throughout combat. Its biggest drawback is the higher ammo demand compared to more conventional weapons.

Consistent mid range engagements.

Grenade Launcher (Legendary)

The Grenade Launcher deals heavy explosive damage over a wide area, making it a great choice against groups of enemies.

It also works well for controlling space during fights. The slower reload speed and need for accurate shots can make it less forgiving than standard firearms.

Clearing enemy groups and holding defensive positions.

Best Use

Legendary Rocket Launcher

If landing one massive hit is your priority, the Legendary Rocket Launcher gets the job done. It packs 14,000 ATK and delivers around 2295 to 3043 DPS with weapon swaps, making it a strong burst option against large targets.

Its slow reload, costly ammo, and weaker sustained damage make it less effective in longer fights, but its single shot power is hard to ignore.

Boss encounters that require short burst damage windows.

Legendary Pump Action Shotgun, Handgun, Semi Auto Rifle, and Similar Classics

These upgraded versions of the classic weapons remain solid choices throughout the mid and late game thanks to their improved stats, such as the Legendary Handgun's 625 ATK and doubled magazine size. They are reliable, easy to use, and perform well within their intended range.

Even so, their overall DPS and versatility fall behind many of the newer and higher tier weapons available later in the game.

Progressing through the mid to late game or filling specific niche roles.
