What's your criteria of op weapon? Op inside the game it's available or op in general?

>> No.5359112

the dragon tooth's sword in deus ex

essentially game breaking especially with either of the leg augmentations at 2 or more upgrade levels, even the objectively shittier one

there are other weapons in the game, particularly the explosive ones, that can hilariously rek anything you come up against but the scarcity of ammo for them and tendency to work just as effectively at killing the player if you're careless at all balances them, the sword you can just run up and kill anyone, they should have given it battery packs or something else to limit it

Either him or Snorlax in Gen 1, Amnesia was a powerful move, compounded by Special being a single stat instead of just one.

that was how i played deus ex. wait behind a corner and active augmentation speed, then run out and rush at them like a ninja before cutting their heads off. i literally played the whole game like this after hong kong. and it was probably the most fun i had with the game.

in my latest playthrough I decided to do "pick only shitty augmentations" and it was still easy, and arguably more fun to use the silent run and the sword

I kinda wish they had done something more with the sword and melee skill, since you're best just leaving it untrained since the sword instantly kills everything, idk what you could do with the limitations of melee in the game being one attack though

Angel Slayer in Valkyrie Profile, you have to beat the strongest boss in the game ten times to get it so it's far beyond a bragging rights trophy, but it's so overwhelmingly powerful it makes mincemeat out of her.

I can't think of anything more OP than the Sheild Rod - Alucard Sheild combo. You can just walk into anything including the end boss dealing mass damage while getting healed.

Buffalo Star + Duplicator kills things even faster from range

True say, but it lacks the healing and you have to tap buttons. Guess sheild rod is more OP and lazy.

You can make weapons in legend of mana that will ohko everything too.

The Diamond Weapon from FF7. It's a joke in speedruns and it's even more of a joke if you actually level and play the game normally. I'm not sure why that anon posted it.

FF7 is a gigantic joke unless you willfully avoid wise materia combos
the Materia (and class, and magicite, and GF) system(s) are less about 'making characters' or 'customizing' and more about having gamebreaking power.

Multiple summons of KotR pls

In one playthrough I set up Cloud with a Cover and then various Counter Attack shit so he covered every attack and then countered so many times it added up to more than kotr. It was pretty rad till I forgot to take it off before the Sephiroth fight. I hadn't seen Supernova and really wanted to. So I spent the whole fight having everyone throw megalixers at Seph so he'd stay alive long enough to use it this time.

Lol, master a 4x cut for each party member and equip master a bunch of counters and the game is so broken at this point. I see people talk about how it is necessary to use KotR to kill Emerald Weapon, but he dies in less than 10 minutes with 4x cut and counter spams.
