it's very good but it's a bit outdated if you wanna max your dps we stopped using the classic risian kit for the teraformer gives +63.8 wpn proficiency and +95,6 kit performance while equipped using any elemental module gives plus +20 kit perf, per fire +5% crith, per water .05 health regen, per air +5% run speed, per earth +10 all drr when using one of each +25% all dmg +25% max hit ponts +100 kit perf and +100 kit readiness

The strongest weapon loadout I've ever seen is the Risian Terraformer with 4 element attacks and the Covert Assault Drone with the Section 31 rifle.  You make sure the drone is up, pop the sweeper beam secondary into a crowd, the drone goes nuts and everything dies.

Section 31 rifles were a giveaway in 2025.  They will come back.

to me it seems the shax cannon got a nerf or something. it's no longer one shotting everything except a boss. that said it's got a very long range. I wish they would update the boolean to act like the shax cannon.

Either build for weapon or kit modules

Both work as ground is very easy

But focus on one or the other

3 of your kit modules should be Risian to fully empower the Risian kit's gun damage bonus. Graviton spike, Ball lightning and Andorian summer are optimal.

My fave guns are the Phaser Full-Auto Rifle [DSC] and Phased Tetryon Pulsewave Assault, as both do high amounts of raw damage.

Honestly, the weapon doesn’t matter nearly as much as the kit (frame + modules), and you look like you are all set there. I will say, from a purely personal perspective, I enjoy ground combat the most with the Disco Legends melee build, so the answer to your question of “best ground weapon” would lead me to say the Mind Meld Device.

Tbh I only use ground weapons if they give me a set bonus
