true, but like engineer and chub scout, the weapons are gonna be good, just to live up to the fact that they cost 100 gas. i cant really say much for them, though, because i dont have engineer and i hardly use chub scout. but they both have good weapons.
back to the topic, i think that the best weapons to use are the ones that DONT get OHKO on huggables. automatic weapons pretty much meen that huggable is gonna die anyway, but at least they give you a chance to escape. against riggs you can get a good chance of escape against his automatic weapons, because he is slow, and his weapons accuracy drops with the distance that you and the enemy are. through experience, you CAN survive running head-first into riggs's electric honey, although you do have to swerve a bit to avoud some of the lasers. as i explained beforee, i cant use riggs, its too slow, but the main character that i use (huggable) generally kills every character but riggs, demo and wil with Headlights and damage+2.
most of the weapons for the "premium" characters are good damage or OHKO (Sniper Rifle, Proximity Mine, Gamma Ray ect) but (all except wil's shotguns) they all require at least decent aiming. proximity mines a bit less cos, well, its a mine, and again, a bit less with Sniper cos it locks onto targets before you shoot, but Gamma Ray requires decent aiming. but if any of you have ever played ShadowGun DeadZone (SGDZ), you would know that the proximity mines in THIS game are no way up to standard of the Mines in that. for a start, you can actually SEE those mines, so it makes it a lot easyer to avoid, but in SadowGun they have a much bigger explosion, so that if you are quite close to the mine when it goes off, you will undertake some serious damage. you use mines here in corridors, but there a few corridors in this. jumps pads and stuff like those are also useful places for mines, but in SG, you put them in corridors, they blow up, you get kills.here, with riggs and armor+1 +2 you can survive a mine explosion.
basically, the most overpowerd weapon SO FAR, is the proximity mine. just as the most OP weapon in SG is a Rocket Luncher.
