Battle Ram
Meet the Battle Ram, which is undoubtedly the best weapon in the game. In terms of stats, the Battle Ram is nearly impossible to fault. The shop stats, for once, are actually reflective of how truly overpowered this weapon is. Its only real issue is agility, but even then, it's only one bar away from the Revolver and other high-agility weapons. Speaking of Revolver, this Battle Ram is very similar to that weapon. It retains the ability to kill in two or three shots and improves on everything else - for example, the weapon's fire rate is slightly higher than that of Revolver's, meaning it kills just slightly faster.
But that's not all this weapon does. After damage and fire rate, the next thing this weapon does well is clip size. 20 is absolutely massive. You can go for an extremely long time without having to worry about touching that reload button. With Revolver, you have to be careful how you use each shot, but with this weapon, all that matters is firing constantly. While the reload is a bit slow, it does very little to compensate for this weapon's monstrous clip size. It doesn't stop there either. This weapon backs one of the best range stats in the game. It can reach any player that you care about hitting. It can reach to the other side of Royal Garden easily. What's even more amazing is that this weapon doesn't get weaker with range. The damage remains consistent the entire way, allowing you to quickly and easily wipe out players. |

In terms of countering this weapon, there isn't much you can do in the form of weapon or armour choices, it's that powerful. It is, hands down, THE best weapon in the game. My biggest recommendation to countering this weapon is to strafe. Move left and right, in a circle around the player, whatever works. The weapon's accuracy isn't perfect as the shop displays, so your best bet at beating this weapon is to exploit this and make it miss. The other thing you need is a weapon that kills quickly, at least at the same speed as the Battle Ram or faster. Thumper is my best recommendation for this, as it packs enough range to beat it. If you're good at strafing, however, Revolver may be a better option since agility is great for strafing and Thumper isn't the greatest in that regard. Flare Gun is also decent, but its unreliable accuracy becomes quite irritating after a while.
If I were to criticise the Battle Ram on anything, it'd its agility and slight inadequacy in accuracy, but those are very small flaws in what is otherwise a very, very overpowered weapon. If you buy anything in Respawnables, buy the Battle Ram.

TL; DR
No other weapon actively pisses me off more than this one for how overpowered it is. It would please me very much to see it nerfed, just like the Noisy Cricket.
