A lot of the weapons lack mobility as a tradeoff for their very high damage, the longsword is actually a weapon that perfectly blends in both of these groups allowing you to remain mobile, counter incoming attacks, and at the same time being a damage-dealing machine.
It has received a new set and much more powerful skills with Sunbreak making it even way better than before. If you have been a user of it before, you might want to come back and give it a try again. Especially for those heavy-hitting one-shot slices!
Heavy Bowgun
This is the most powerful ranged weapon in the game and basically makes you a walking tank. It has a big plus because of the ammo acceptability from all sorts. You can choose pierce, spread, status, or even explosive type. You can basically adapt to any situation you might find yourself in.
This weapon can be turned into a turret-like thing when it is reloaded with the wyves fire ammo. So if you want to be that cool cannon-shooting character, this one is for you! Pick up this weapon if you want to deal massive damage from a distance.

This is definitely the most technical weapon in Sunbreak. This is a weapon that is practically a sword and an axe, once you’ve mastered the art of combining weapons into your play style. It will take some time to master it, but it is a weapon that is easy to learn and hard to master.
Once you get to the point of feeling natural with it though, you will be dealing with devastating powerful attacks that will leave any monster flinching with fear. This weapon is not for everyone, but if you want to be that cool guy that mastered it and perfected it, well this is for you.
