@haz yup only event weapons to come out and completely dominate the game as soon as they came out was definetly Thumper and Minigun... all the other event weapons have had no such ability.

@nature i have to respectfully disagree however. Aristocrat is the best weapon in the game right now, with the incursion ram as a very close second. i wouldnt put atarot anywhere near the top 3. Third best is probably either RE, FGMK3. or BR.

1. Aristocrat- one shot kill from anywhere. idk if it got nerfed but i can still one shot people mid to mid-long range with it. 2 shots at long range. It's clip is basically infinite because the reload is so damn fast. pretty much if i use this weapon i basically win the match. unless theres other AS users then its either them or me. There is no contest imo, Aristocrat's range, damage, and reload puts it at the top of the list.

2. incursion ram- yes it is a new weapon and we dont know the impact of it on the game yet, but this is one of the few weapons that can hold it's own against the aristocrat. it's insane fire rate, coupled with the armor that ccame with it makes it the best gear+weapon to strafe any bullet be it from flare gun to the Aristocrat. At close range it kills insanely quick and at longer ranges too. Idk why everyone's saying that it is short range, i mean if u look at it it has a passable midrange, and makes up for damage dropoff with rate of fire. Incursion ram comes second to only aristocrat,

3. most likely the FGMK3, cus like u said it is a one shot kill with infinite range. thing thats limiting it is agility and the bullet speed. No matter whay u say, the bullet speed is slow compared to reguar bullets, and this makes it easy to strafe. I strafe the mk3 easily for kills. The only way this weapon is good is for ambush type attacks where u know ur guaranteed a hit. you need some prediction skill to take care of long range enemies. Still is another weapon that can hold it's own against aristocrat, given that you land your shots.

RE and BR are prolly next on the list, due to their ability to run and gun at any range. Both have insane ranges and insane damage outputs. RE doesn't need skill to use, and u can use it to beat other weapons in a head 2 head situation. BR is a three shot kill at any range and is the camper's dream. both are also buffable with gear that buffs assault weapons.Slower rate of fire keeps both from moving up any higher on my list.

Atarot is definetly a great weapon, but it's inability to one shot keeps it out of the running. All three of the weapons above have a faster kill time than the atarot. yes it is buffable with outlaw head and stuntman jacket, but on a level playing field atarot vs aristocrat is no contest ( no buff). and also with full buffs, aristocrat would win. also for some reason the bullet on the atarot travels slowly as well, making it easy to strafe. idk if it's just the animation or it's actually the bullet, but i see it traveling, and thats what makes me miss with the atarot.
