    Simple Question. 
    Mine is the Army Carbine. Can be used up close, and from far away. Does a good bit of damage, also.

    The better question is what's your favorite faction?

    I really like the Scrap Musket, I don't know why.
     
    Scrap Salvo is probably a big reason.

    Pike.  Incredible damage at a distance, can be equipped for knockback to keep them at that distance, and when playing with idols on, the negate armor ability to nullify Garmuth is amazing.

    I really enjoyed the war machete.

    Using that + something like the Army carbine is a great combo. Something for everything.

    Musket!   
    Most of the game I played with musket and hammer. Not the fastest weapon combo, but lots of evading made it work really well.

    Scrap Musket + Fire Bellows turns you into a moving apocalypse.

    I gotta throw my support in for the bellows. So many foes run at you in this game then turning yourself into a walking inferno is always good. Pistols or musket can take care of the rest.

    Ended really loving the Fire Bellows. By the end I was taking too much heat while using melee weapons, so I ran a combination of the Fire Bellows + another, more powerful long range gun.

    Army Carbine all the way! It's explosive shell at full upgrade level is ridiculously overpowered. I found that to be way more useful than armor piercing rounds.

    My second weapon was the Fire Bellows. Anything armored or small swarms of enemies were toast with the bellows.

    I, somwhere half-way in the game, realised I could actually try two ranged weapons and ofter some experimenting and tweaking I settled on Bow+Pistols combo. Finished the game with those and then one more time with all Idols on, couldn't bring myself to more experimenting with other weapons (I will do that in a few months when I go for anotger go).

    The weapons I used the most were the Cael Hammer and Scrap Musket. The Musket is my favorite. Fun gun to use. :)

    the bow just feels perfect, messed around with all of the weapons in my first play through, but the bow hits a real sweet spot with me, i tend to combine it with the scrap musket with knockback in case enemies get a bit too close its also good at taking out groups of small enemies, but the bow deals with 90% of the rest

    going 200% crit damage on Machete, + dots, +werewhiskey, and scrap musket. When I'm doing good I'm doing poorly, and when I'm doing bad I'm killing everything.

    Fire Bellows, definetly! It was the first weapon I got that ignored armor and together with that one tonic that restored your life as you dealt damage I was practically invinsible.

    Currently rolling with the Pike and Musket. The long reach of the Pike and the knockback from the Musket is great for spacing control.

    Come on, guys. Breaker's Bow. The stacked poison upgrades works wonders against the Micia idol (regenerating health), and the damage over time counts towards leechade.
