The machine gun is hands down probably the best LMG in the game. The AR and Pulse are my constant go-to when that weapon type is needed. But my Cryptic Dragon with Firefly and Explosive rounds is what I carry through just about every activity, especially raiding. Rocket launcher is also very good. 3 in the tube is almost expected now. No tracking is a bummer but it does fire quickly, has great damage radius, and reloads quickly giving extra ammo when reloaded empty. Great for dispatching mobs or guardians camping in corners with shotty's. Titans that like the Moonman helmet would benefit the most from this launcher. Hand Cannon is a tough call. I keep it in my loadout for when I feel like running one. It is one of the best PvE cannons aside from a God roll of this archetype. I think since the great hand cannon nerf, the decision is now one of want vs need. I never feel a "need" for a HC. I use one when I "want" to feel more mobile. The sniper is garbage. 3 rounds and about as stable as a chair with 3 legs. Fusion is the cats ass over everything except Saladin's. Shotgun is in the top 5 imho. The Scout I infused after 5 mins of play with it. Trashy. Sidearm...meh. It just is. Rather have a Havoc Pigeon. Edit #1: As some have pointed out, some chairs and tables with 3 legs can be pretty stable. Therefore, I'm adding that the Sniper is about as stable as a one legged man in an ass-kicking contest. I've also added my opinion on the hand cannon and rocket launcher.
