Best ATP Weapon in Episode 1/2?

[Makiro]

S-Rank Sword with Berserk ?

no, liek, obviously the ATP added matters more than any special, d00d!1

(S-Rank Sword with Berserk does pwn all weapons in this thread, though)

Black King Bar +80 gives the most ATP in an overall combo.
590-600 ATP
670-680 ATP [after +80 through grinders]
43 ATA
Special: Unreduced Devil's

Double Cannon
620-650 ATP (cannot grind)
45 ATA
Special: Special attack drains 5% of your maximum HP to fire a purple wave that goes through monsters with about 60% the power and accuracy of a normal attack at slicer range.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Double Cannon gives +2 more ATA than Black King Bar... not a big deal. An ungrinded BKB is not as powerful as Double Cannon.

[Hrith]

Double Cannon is a useless weapon, very crappy special for an excessive rarity, and still only the 3rd in terms of ATP.

I think that Orotiagito, Dark Flow and Tsumikiri J-Sword have the best ATP of the Ep1&2 weapons.

But all three suck, proof that ATP is not the deciding factor in weapon usefulness.

kefka, what is the weapon that does most atp over a combo? do you agree that its the black king bar?

kefka, what is the weapon that does most atp over a combo? do you agree that its the black king bar?

Black King Bar
ATP 590-600
ATA 43
Max Grinder 80

(ungrinded) 590 x 6 = 3540 ATP /// 600 x 6 = 3600 ATP
(grinded) 750 x 6 = 4500 ATP /// 760 x 6 = 4560 ATP

For those who thought that Mech guns might be stronger, here's the king of mechguns... falling to BKB

Mille Marteaux
ATP 200-220
MST 10
ATA 46
Max Grinder 12

(ungrinded) 200 x 9 = 1800 ATP /// 220 x 9 = 1980 ATP
(grinded) 224 x 9 = 2016 ATP /// 244 x 9 = 2196 ATP

Twin Sabers have a 6 hit combo, multiply the ATP by 6.
Mechguns have a 9 hit combo, multiply the ATP by 9.
Grinders are multiplied by 2, seeing 1 grind = +2 ATP

Sorry i have to disagree with Kefka :O . Personally i think Double cannon is a cool weapon. It may not give out the most damage standard but it looks waaaay cool, sounds way cool and deals out enough damage to kill a del-d in one volley. Ok so you cant grind it. No matter, i have used the ubiquitous Photon sphere on it so i get more damage done to dark enemies lol. Coupled with 35% hit and my HUneys lck at 100 i get lots of criticals that hit oh yeah.
I guess its all down to personal preference though
* having much fun with my 45% hit DoB atm though*

EDIT: The DC special is very useful in mines when you get surrounded as it knocks everything(gilchichs) over lol.

[jarl]

lol, the gilchics have a 1/9 chance of falling over, DC is nothing to do with it.

the DC is waaay too rare though.

[Makiro]

DC is one of the most useless and over-rated weapons in the game. Just because you think it looks and sounds cool doesn't make it the slightest bit useful.
Weak, terrible special, oh yayz. It's like the HU edition of Yas9k for being a crappy weapon that's ridiculously loved for no good reason.

[Teh EkwEE]

Yeah, Labis Blades pwn it. I don't know if I'm the only one but.... I think the MKB> BKB as far as looks...But, as I've said before, I don't really like the 'extendo-stick' Double Sabers.....I could get into some innuendos about extendo-sticks and such, but I won't.

[Makiro]

Lavis Blades suck too IMO (especially considering their rarity) and even more so in BB when you have other much better options.
