Default Underappreciated Weapons

They are in every game, from Moo1, Diablo, to SE4, weapons that at first glance seem useless or just not used.

These are my top 5 underappreciated weapons.

1: Ionic Disperser (engine damage, not blocked by shields or armor, combined with Ripper Beams it rocks!!)
2: Ripper Beam (Major damage, but close range, combine with Trac beam).
3: Tractor Beam or Repulser Beam, both have there uses.(combo: Trac/Ripper/Repulse!)
4: Wormhole Beam: Rocks!! Hit 'em and then send them to the far side of the map!
5: tie: Meason BLaster/DUC damage that is not reduced by range!
(6: honorable mention: Tach Projection Canon, take out weapons without damaging the rest of the ship!).

Anyone else have some suggestions for weapons that rock at second glance??
