RE: Weapon Poll: Which is better?

[jeekheadonmars]

Breakers - SPAM SPAM SPAM Spread damage + Taking out entire bars of hp/ap in one hit + decent ammo but heavy

Avengers - 1 hit KO's, less ammo

Rev/Pistols - Accurate, good damage, in rev's case, 3/4 shot deathguns...Lotsa ammo and light

Rockets - Area effect damage, leading required, heavy as hell, causes panic in the crowd lmao

Smgs/Mgs - SPRAYYYY you got lotsa ammo, dw ^^, inaccurate, bad damage whereever you are, cept mgs...if you can aim. Heavy

Rifles - Accurate, decent damage and a good clip size ;3

Comment for me to add anything ^^

Hmm...

There are some mistakes here and there, and the MG/SMGs should be two different options, while the two shotguns Breaker and Avenger should be in the same option.



Breaker is a heavier, weaker but more ammo edition of the shotgun. It is normally spammed if two are used. It's actually the spraying weapon, really!

Avenger is a much lighter and stronger but less ammo version of the shotgun. No, it does not kill in 1-hit if you have heavy enough armor. It just does a lot more damage compared to the other shotguns.

Revolvers, contrary to the popular belief, are actually pretty inaccurate. If it is the typical dual revolvers, it kills in 3 to 4 shots because it deals about 70% or more damage to health and the rest goes to armor, while the other guns do more to armor. Dynax are weaker but fire faster and have more ammo. It is light.

Pistols are accurate and do 50/50 ratio to HP and AP. Ravens are heavy, Raptors are light. Ravens do more damage and have more ammo, Raptors are faster and more accurate.

MGs are highly inaccurate, so it can "spray" due to its large spread. It has high damage and a near endless clip of ammo to compensate for this.

SMGs are faster than MGs, but less ammo. Renards are more accurate, fire faster and have more ammo than Walcoms, but Walcoms do much more damage per shot, even more than the MG. If you think the SMGs are terrible weapons, then you're very wrong. They can be compared to the MG and even the shotgun, because they are very powerful weapons in close-range. SMGs can kill you as fast as or even faster than a Maxwell rifle with all shots hitting you. Not as fast as two PBs, sure, but for an automatic, it is very often underestimated.

Your description for rockets and rifles are pretty much correct.




Well, I can't really say there's a best weapon (though the weapons are very unbalanced). But in GunZ, the best guns can only be Shotguns (if two are held), Revolvers (Dynax included) or the Maxwell Rifle. Maybe Walcom rockets, but SMGs and MG and Pistols (especially) are pretty much out of the picture.

Based on glitches, revolvers (mid-long range) and shotguns (close range) will dominate. But for normal gameplay without the glitches, Rifles are easily the most superior weapons in the game, and even there are glitches, the rifle would still, amazingly, stand out as one of the strongest weapons, so my vote goes to the Rifle.

[Mr.Lucifer]

Revolvers if it hadn't been for ping. But breakers win. There's a reason "everyone" use it. It's simple to use, yet powerful.

In theory rifle or revolver is best. But we all know theory doesn't mean ****. Except about everyone who will post in this thread with multi-sentenced posts.

Brilliant post ^^ refer to it guys/girls ^^

Also, id like to point out Avengers, even if your enemy has the highest possible hp/ap combo, they can be taken out in two close range/good medium shots - meaning you'll prob leave them red after one good shot, finish off the rest with your sword/secondary gun shouldnt be hard

^@Lucifer

1. Breaker is not "the best" - its just, as STM said, a spray weapon and personally, I dont even consider it a real shotgun, you dont even need to aim, i see ppl just RS spam it moving backwards all the time...and score half the kills in game - simply overpowered

2. Revolvers and Rifles both work really well in reality, the only problem is that half the players on GunZ cant aim to save their life, or cant lead, either way, thats the only reason people consider them "fail"

3. In duels, a player with a Rev/SG Avenger/Brkr Dual Rev or Dual Avenger combo would rip up a dual brkr if theyre on the same skill lvl with their weapons, my reason? well Rev/SG means they player would have equal dmg at short/medium range, but significantlyh higher dmg at long range (theyre most likely used to aiming at long ranges anyways), Avenger/Brkr means more dmg at the same range, Dual Rev means the Dual brkr would be dead b4 getting close enough for PB's and Dual Avenger means insane dmg, if all 4 shots hit at close range, the enemy is pretty much dead...

[Shell™]

Breaker is highly favored among k-stylers and most d-stylers, just because:
A)It has spread
B)The dmg per pellet = high dmg overall.

I like to use a combo of Breaker and a rifle/revs, just because if someone happens to have good ping, I can use the rifle/revs, and shotgun for anyone else.

Avengers most of the time aren't 1 hit KO's, because people will either not get close enough for it to have full effect, or fight an opponent with higher ping.

SMGs - The highest level SMGs are OVERPOWERED. The damage is way too high, even though it has **** aim. A lot of people will use them from level 1-20.

MGs - An excellent weapon, IF YOU CAN USE IT RIGHT. While it is favored in quest, it is an easy way to level in DMs because most people just hold down fire and tumble everywhere.

Revs - An excellent overall weapon that is destroyed because of ****ty ping. They're actually not as accurate as you would think. If you can lead, go ahead and use them. They can be deadly if used right.

Pistols - Essentially revs with lower delay. Each shot gets less and less accurate as it is fired more (in one repition, meaning spamming = less accurate, duh) as an individual, each shot can be accurate as hell.
Raptors>Ravens

You can't block a rocket and hiding in the dumpster bunker in town just makes you an easier target. Rocket.

The semi-auto pistol are useless. Revolvers (specifically, Zarus B and Iron Crow) are better at sniping or medium range since even if you just hold down trigger, the spread is still smaller than the semi-auto's. The pistols are like a stronger rifle with the 50/50 AP and HP damage, but much less accurate with sustained fire. The only application I can see them useful in is for shooting people in the legs at close range. Maybe the Raven 8s can be useful as a main weapon just because they do so much damage.

[Hot§hot]

it depend on u if ur aim is nice as hell u can use anything really.

[jeekheadonmars]

Look at it this way, you both got perfect aim, but depending on the weapon you use, the results will be massively different <<

[Kurono-]

All those ****ing weapons suck.
Where are the lvl 0 meds?

[STM1993]

I don't see how the highest level Walcom XLS SMGs (dual of course, not one uses single) are overpowered.

28 weight. That's as heavy as the MG.

Very inaccurate (ctrl_ability 90, MG's is 70).

32 ammo, that's very little compared to the MG. One ammo is enough to refill the MG to the maximum from 0, but it only recovers two out of five clips for SMGs.

The reload time for an MG and all other non dual-wieldable guns is about 2 seconds. Single-handed takes 1.5 seconds, but dual-wield including dual SMGs is about 2.1 seconds. 0.1 seconds in a fast-paced game like GunZ makes a whole big difference.

What has it got left? It would have to rely on heavy damage and firing rate. It has 95 firing rate (only 5 less than MG in delay), but 22 damage which is about 4 damage more than the highest level MG. SMGs are meant to be superior in DPS and close range and it fulfills that purpose, I don't see how it is overpowered.

Moreover, hardly anyone uses SMGs in the higher levels... it's way too unpopular because people generally prefer the MG because of its insanely high bullet clip, prefer other guns like the rifle for play style and versatility, or even take on the double shotguns which kill faster than anything in close range. People always take what is the easiest to use and yet most efficient, and from what you see about the number of people using the different weapons, you can tell this is very imbalanced. And there is NEVER going to be good updates for GunZ in the aspects of balancing...

[jeekheadonmars]

^@Kurono-

We're tlking about weapons, and what other weapons do you suggest, the ones i listed are all the weapons in the game....and you cant kill people with meds....

therefore, wth?

^@STM

Gj on the 1,000th post ^^ and ya, its annoying, nothin will ever be balanced, T-T well they might on ijji...but who knows....

[Junji]

for good aimers ,avenger =D

[[PB]HijakK]

Avengers - 1 hit KO's, less ammo

avenger packs the damage, but i'm afraid its not capable of 1 hit K.O.-unless naked.

[AAngelBunny]

I say breaker and avenger. Both are good.

[Fail9000]

Revolver have more potential than shotguns, if k-stylers actually favoured revolvers at the beginning instead of shotguns then everyone would be better right now.


People would have to constantly lead, which if everyone learned they would get good at it and probaly have 70% aim with revs.
