Recently I purchased few deals for keys (about 11$ worth) and as result opened 20 or so gold chests and few superchests. I know that the weapons/bots I got from them are not meta but this is ok since I have no intention of chasing meta. I got a plethora of various weapons and unfortunately don't know which ones are worth upgrading for brawler to mid range playstyle.
Long range playstyle is not for me, so any "laser show" weapons with 1.1k range already got converted into silver. I suspect anything above 600 range will also be liquidated, but you can always convince me otherwise. I also have a strong urge to sell any 150m "spear" type of weapons, these seem to be not worth the power/value they provide. Am I wrong here?
Here's what I got:
harpy bot (already have siren and not a big fan of it so maybe will sell it)
weapons:
hel
smuta
cruel talon
sinister pulsar x2
jaw
fainter
hazard
snear x 4
magnetar x 2
cudgel
scald x 3
kramola
I mostly need medium weapons, some light and few heavy for ravana, tyr, hades, blitz, siren and ultimate destrier. I'm leaning towards upgrading mostly those that I have multiple qty of, firing mixed type weapons as I do now is not ideal. Let me know your thoughts.

The best weapons are definitely Pulsar, Magnetar, and Scald in my opinion, as they are very reliable and versatile weapons that do not get enough attention, particularly Magnetar since it only does slightly less damage than Pulsar despite being on a smaller hard point. After that are Kramola, Smuta, Hel, and Snaer, as these are good but not as good as the aforementioned weapons to me, as they need more patience to use properly (mainly due to long reloads). Talon, Jawan, and Fainter got pretty bad nerfs as I understand, so you probably should stay away from them.
Hazard and Cudgel are really good (as good as Magnetar honestly), but you need multiples of those on the right bot to make them really work. You can do mixed builds like Marquess + Snaer or Cestus + Scald very well, but for Hazard and Cudgel you really want a homogeneous build. If you have them though, definitely consider it.

If you dont spend much, midrange is good. Brawlers need all the bling.
Magnetars and hazzards from that list for me. They are even good at closer ranges. Hazzard typhon is respectable.

Yea, looks like I'm going to have replace bunch of my 300-350m weapons. Still like my igniter ravana but the time has already passed for that build. I also have a lot of leveled up cryos but these work only if all enemies cooperate and stand still while I'm firing.

I call them my long range killers, very effective for f2p folk against meta. Both have quantum radar, with maxed repair and immune amps, and a balanced unit each. Blight, hazards, pulsars, magnetars would be my choices. My other two arachnids are setup for brawling. And yea, they both have kestrel drones, which work just fine for me. Great distance bots with the below setups. Best of luck.   |

I like the hazards, scalds, and cudgels personally. Hazards do tons of damage and I personally love blast charge weapons. It's the kind of weapon I have the most of.
Assuming your a brawler.

Yep. Those Magnetars. Pulsars too. Land every shot. As others have said, the radiation weapons are heavy hitters too, provided you're landing that third - bambamBAM! And yeah, I also still run a few blast charge options too.

Thanks everybody for input, looks like there's fairly good consensus too.
Haven't had a chance to level all weapons mentioned, but already can see the value of pulsars. Barely upgraded two of them to level 5 and my ultimate destrier is already making a difference. Great range, damage, no delay and fast reload time. With current faster game I can see that my old upgraded slower weapons need to be replaced asap.
When I rejoined the game after long absence as "welcome back" package from Pixonic I got two decays to go with siren. Have to say I'm seriously unimpressed with decays so far.
