Gunsmith godsends (Destiny)

The gunsmith has a good selection of weapons across the tiers, so even though many are not best in class they can get close enough for government work.

PVP BiC class weapons are:

Arminius D
Thesan FR4
Suros DIS 47
Suros PDX 45

All of these are similar archetypes to the top tier PVP weapons and boast similar perk sets and stats. For example the difference between a Arminius D and a Soul Stealers Claw is minimal in practical terms. The Thesan with good rolls is one of the current top tier fusion rifles.

Runners up are:

Uffern HC4
Cyocutus
Eirene
Suros JLB-42/47

These are good weapons, but have a substandard stat or perk set up vs. other options in game. For example the Eirene has the same impact as 1KS, but lower aim assist. The Uffern has lower range then Imago loop.

PVE fun weapons are:

Judith "My love for you is like a truck" D, who's low ROF is the only reason it's not on top in PVP. In PVE, it can do serious damage to unlucky majors with minimal exposure.

Aofie "Continuous Fire" Rua. I had one of these with outlaw and appended mag, and it could lay down numerous constant fire. Sadly it was out classed by 1KS which didn't run out of ammo nearly as fast.
