Here's my attempt. I'll divide it between PvE and PvP. [u]PvE[/u] [u]Hand cannon[/u]: [b]Fatebringer[/b] - The perk combination makes this pretty much undeniably the best overall gun in the game for PvE. [u]Scout Rifle[/u]: [b]Vision of Confluence[/b]: Has high base stats, a large magazine, and Full Auto / Zen Moment which synergize together well. [u]Auto Rifle[/u]: [b]The Summoner (Adept[/b]): Has a combination of very good stats and decent perks. (Still an Auto Rifle though...) [u]Pulse Rifle[/u]: [b]The Messenger (Adept)[/b]: Great impact, range and stability alongside some pretty nice perks makes this an easy pick for me. [u]Sniper Rifle[/u]: [b]Black Hammer[/b] - White Nail is amazing for boss fights. That is all. [u]Shotgun[/u]: [b]Found Verdict[/b] - This gun absolutely shreds through pretty much anything you use it against, and it has pretty good range as well. [u]Fusion Rifle[/u]: [b]Praetorian Foil[/b] - Unfortunately, Fusion Rifles aren't very useful in the current state of the game, but Praetorian Foil has crazy impact and good range along with a decent perk combo. [u]Machine Gun[/u]: [b]Corrective Measure [/b]- 100. Round. Mag. But also Surplus helps a lot and the gun has pretty good overall stats. [u]Rocket Launcher[/u]: [b]Hezen Vengeance / Hunger of Crota[/b] - This could kind of go either way. HoC has Tracking which is very nice, but HV's MIRV rounds are (from what I understand) vastly superior to the Cluster Bombs on HoC. [u]PvP[/u] [u]Hand cannon[/u]: [b]Timur's Lash [/b]- The ability to roll for either the LiTC / Final Round set on this high Impact HV or the Field Scout / CC on older ones makes this a really nice PvP weapon. [u]Scout Rifle[/u]: [b]The Scholar[/b] - The guaranteed 3-shot to the head, along with the possibility of the 2-shot from the Reactive Reload (made better by Outlaw) put this in first to me. [u]Auto Rifle[/u]: [b]The Summoner [/b]- High impact and decent PvP perks. Meh... [u]Pulse Rifle[/u]: [b]The Messenger [/b]- It was the winner in PvE and it's not even close in PvP. The Messenger's great perks and 2-burst to the head make this clearly the best PvP Pulse from endgame content. [u]Sniper Rifle[/u]: [b]Efrideet's Spear[/b] - People will hate you. You'll hate yourself. But you'll use it anyway. Efrideet's Spear combined with Final Round is absolutely insane for PvP. The other perks you can get like Performance Bonus or Double Down just pull this one farther away from the rest of the pack. [u]Shotgun[/u]: [b]Felwinter's Lie[/b] - I could only choose one Sniper Rifle so I decided to put the second best one under the Shotgun category... Felwinter's has absolutely disgusting range with Shot Package and a range perk. There was really no other choice. [u]Fusion Rifle[/u]: [b]Light in the Abyss[/b] - Some of you may disagree, but I feel that this is the best PvP Fusion Rifle in the game simply because of the charge rate. It's not that great but it's the fastest. Still... Fusion Rifles kind of suck. (Honorable mention to the [b]Vex Mythoclast[/b]. Still technically classified as a Fusion Rifle but not a traditional one. The best gun that's referred to as a Fusion Rifle but it handles more like an Auto Rifle and has, sadly, been nerfed to hell.) [u]Machine Gun[/u]: [b]Jolder's Hammer[/b] - This can be rolled for some fantastic perks on top of its already great impact. Jolder's is a very good choice for a PvP Machine Gun. [u]Rocket Launcher[/u]: [b]Radegast's Fury[/b] - The Iron Banner Rocket Launcher has sky-high Blast Radius and can be rolled for perks such as Warhead Verniers, Tripod / Clown Cartridge, Javelin, and Grenades and Horseshoes to make it arguably the best PvP Rocket Launcher in the game. This is all in my opinion so feel free to call me an idiot in the replies! Hope it helps someone!
