Stop running while firing and the Rail Gun will be your best friend.
I use two, one each on my S ARTs, and they've proven to be excellent primary weapons. You need a secondary weapon for shorter ranges, though, as the Rail Gun has trouble dealing with short-range targets.

Grenades. They're slow as all holy fuck, and don't even do that much damage.
Burners. They're nice for short-range attacks and inflicting short-lived Burned status, but they don't do enough to justify their amazingly short range.

grenades and burner guns sucks ?

you should learn how to use it

I can, just don't like to. I feel like these weapons, especially the Grenades, are somewhat unwieldy and situational(The Burner is especially situational, only reliable at short range for mid-level DPS). You could call them "weapons of last resort".

I disagree,
In the days when lvl5 rooms had people,
I used a burner equiped Jikun Long in a VS BRD lvl5 room
I trolled them with my lagging and burning
most importantly, my burning
I trolled em so hard,
they all rage quitted the room in the end

I think the real shitty weapons in this game is the handheld "knife" weapons in the shop.

...With the exception of Protean Knife and, uh, is Shock Knife in the shop?

Maybe, still particle gun mod is the best spread weapon in this game behind Aquila girl core.

I'm lazy to read everything, so I'll say even if someone did :
Everything which can't hit a Seraph. Yes, almost everything.

Which is pretty much nothing except most tracking weapons and short range/slow fucker melee.

Funnily enough, I hit a Seraph with active wings using Destructor Girl's AAmissiles. Isn't that not supposed to happen?

DG's AA missiles have both awesome homing and blast radius. It's definitely possible to hit seraphs semi-frequently with them even with their wings up.

from what i see, seraph wings isnt exactly anti-homing, its partially anti homing.
the homing is just nerfed but it still kinda homes, thus still possible to use any homing weapon on a not-so-experienced seraph.

Seraph Wing's anti homing doesn't seem to work when a seraph is on the ground (lol at seraph on the ground). Does anti-homing only work in the air?


Also, all shop melee weapons are shitty.

...which is what anti-homing does. Things still home, just not as well.

Yeah, it only works when Seraph's boosters are firing. This is why she can still get her face blown off when falling or grounded.

Protip: think fighter jets dropping engine flares

Sturbanger and his wall missing core weapon/ams

also gonna stop funtioning if you somehow can stop her moving on air even just a second (maybe stun her?) you must keep moving to make it work.

seriously, sturbanger missile maybe impractical, but they are deadly if used right... you can save a powerspot from seraph zerg air rush with a "two-wield-shield sturbanger" rage in middle powerspot... except they can do warp jikun lags ,they gonna think thrice to gettin close that rain of missiles.

also if you rain em to enemy from high grounds... they gonna like it and try aim you back *smirk*

and if you unsatisfied with the original from shop, try get the Standard version from garapon, it have better aim and power than original (only less cool due only have 2 launcher left)

Since when was seraph wings a shitty weapon?

Nope, Waste Booster doesn't do a thing to Seraph Wings.

IF her curse hits u,
while using Nicole, I see my curse flying towards the Seraph, then just going some other way o.O
Propeller bits also provide some resistance to Booster Trouble

btw, there are Seraphs on the ground
hopping Seraphs

anyone find pill WB useful??
It can't seem to do any significant damage

The point of Pillbox WB is not really to do damage; it's actually more useful as mobile cover. This can make it useful for long-range ARTs, since they can stake out a place to fire from, pop a Pillbox, do their stuff, and then hide behind the Pillbox once the inevitable counter-battery fire starts coming.

Case in point, I was playing a Destructor CN on Canyon Coast, and was being harassed by a Jikun. Managed to retreat to the tunnels, and popped a Pillbox to cover the entrance. That huge size means the Jikun couldn't get past the Pillbox, and it actually did kill the Jikun (granted, it was at low health).

It's not a bad choice, if you can forego the extra firepower from other WBs like Missile or Rifle bits.

I vouch for this. Pillbox has probably saved my Lily Rain's life more times than I can count by drawing lock-on from idiot enemies who can't manually aim, not to mention it's killed maybe 3 enemies who were chasing me, and we both had low HP. Very useful, but you have to know when to activate it.

Shitty weapons: Hand Gun? Custom Gun?
Hammer?
The only melee weapons I've ever made decent use of are the Halberd, Hand Axe, and possibly the Hammer/War Hammer.

Hand Gun can at least be used for 2-3 free slots. It's completely outclassed by Handy Magnum though (which is a surprisingly good weapon for its cost).

If you can find a Hand Gun with slots. So far I've had about 15 Hand Guns, and not one of them had slots.
I've noticed that weapons ending with the word "Mag" or "Magnum" in it tend to be pretty good(Auto Magnum, Custom Magnum, Combat Mag, Handy Magnum, etc.), and most of them, like Custom/Auto/Combat, have pretty decent +mobility stats.

2-3 slot ones drop in arc. I've also got three 3-slot handy mags and a 2-slot one as well.

...That's upsetting. I've farmed Arcantus many a day and NEVER seen one of those things.

By the way, what bot is that? I've never seen that one, or at least I don't recognize it.
