Your Favorite/worse weapon poll

[mac5732]

If this has been done before, I apoligizea, however, I thought it would be interesting to see what each member of the forum likes/dislikes as far as SE4 weapons. This also includes se4 mods. Please list your favorite weapon and the weapon you feel is the most useless in SE4 and SE4 mods. If weapon/s if from a mod, pls stipulate which one.

1. Your favorite weapon and why
2. Most useless weapon and why

just some ideas mac

Favorite Weapon: My Mind

[Arkcon]

Favorite Weapon: Seeker Parasite. I love the sound they make. Other races fire missiles from their ships, organic races give birth to their weapon -- and they're born angry.

Least Favorite: DUC. Yes, I know they're better than other weapons early on, yes, yes, yes more damage for less research, better start early on, more advantage, blah , blah, blah. Hey, I just think they're dull.

Seriously, I usually play on medium tech just so my sci fi space ships in my sci fi game can have sci fi weapons.

1a) Helix Cannon (P&N/Imagemod) for the animation.
1b) Organic Armor for smashing great fun.
Honorable Mention) The "Sci-Fi Canon"

2) Ripper Beams. (Too short ranged, require high propulsion tech to open, and end up being out-powered by APBs anyways.)

Fave: Boarding parties, (free ships! free tech!) If they don't count as a weapon then Null Space. I just love turning heavily shielded, heavily armoured ships into tins of soup on the first hit=-) With some rapid fire backup weapons, NS rocks=-)

Least liked: Graviton Hellbore. Cool name, but not much good for anything as far as I can tell (except in the Cantina, anyway.)

[Timstone]

Most favorite weapon: Phased polaron beam, low research and good punch even late in the game.

Least favorite weapon: Ripper beam, see comment SJ.
