Weapons That You Love (Even if they aren't considered great)

Playing a new Gaige has made me use shotguns (I feel like she should use shotguns, I may be wrong), and as such i’ve used some of the shotguns I never really bothered with before. So I thought of this thread :slight_smile:
I’ll go first, the Triquetra.

All of them… there isn’t a single (Unique or E-Tech) weapon in the game that I don’t enjoy using. Without turning this into a giant list of all the weapons that people generally hate, I will say that the Commerce is really only bringing a cool skin to the table (besides being an otherwise lackluster Hyperion SMG, unless I’m missing something). It is my go-to, non-E-Tech shock Hyperion SMG though.

[quote=“Vinterbris, post:1, topic:1560308”]I may be wrong[/quote]She definitely should not use shotguns, especially with high Anarchy counts where close-range combat would allow her to keep all that shot on target despite the inaccuracy. :wink:

I don’t have anarchy yet, but this sounds very useful :smiley:

Also love the Triquetra - any Doc’s shotty really.

The Crit and Diaubs are two low-radar-fliers that I love.

Crit? Is that the one that you randomly drop?

Yep. It’s not an issue for me - I’ve gotten used to it and play around it. But the high damage, extremely high crit bonus, healing, shock make it outstanding.

Just don’t use it near cliffs…I lost one once and only once.

Fremington’s Edge - I love the high zoom on that thing.

A good parts Umbrage, (Maliwan grip Vladof sight) corrosive or fire.
Shocks best taken care of with the Little Evie, imo.

Not the best pistol in the game no, but i get a lot of fun out of it! :relaxed:

Unforgiven, to the point it was the reason I made a Jakobs allegiance Mechromancer. And on Op0 it trivialises things.

Emperor may count, I suppose. I do get some good result with it on OP8 though.

Good part Sniders (all on personal preference) can be devastating across NVHM - TVHM, and not just in the hands of Maya or Zero!

The RokSalt, Dog, Veritas and elemental Gwen’s Heads for me- all underrated IMO…

Yes and yes to all of those

I’m banking on those for Dahlvador!

With this one I can agree.

For me is Contraband sky rocket, its amazing when you learn the release pattern.

+1 on Emperor and Gwen’s Head. :slight_smile: And the Scorpio. I like accurate burst fire guns, apparently.

I was pleasantly surprised by the performance of a Two Fer Longarm recently (with Jack, but AFAIK Jakobs guns are identical between BL2 and TPS). Normally I avoid the double prefix on pistols not named “Harold”, but on the Longarm it doesn’t hurt accuracy enough to matter, and still lands both bullets together at the midrange distances I used it at.

And I guess the Godfinger isn’t considered great, but I love that thing! So fun! :smiley:

If I had to pick one, I’d pick the Longbow, like I always do in these kinds of threads.

It’s somewhat the epitome of why I love Gearbox games.

One of the most disliked, underused, underrated, and unmentioned guns in the game, the Chere-amie is a personal favourite. I also really like the Teeth of Terramorphous, though it’s practical applications are limited.
