Favorite Weapons?

I've been looking at a lot of weapons lately. Comparing damage, clip size, range, reload time, burst damage, dps, and a variety of other statistics, and came up with a list of favorites for various reasons and purposes.

I'll start by saying a little about myself as a player. I typically prefer midrange and close combat. Additionally, there are several weapons that I haven't had a chance to play with yet.

Favorite DOT weapons:
Light: Magnum
Medium: Taran
Heavy: Thunder

Favorite Burst weapons:
Light: Pinata
Medium: Taran (sure I will love Orkans)
Heavy: Thunder

Favorite Energy weapons:
Light: Magnum
Medium: Taran
Heavy: Zeus
