Holy Toledo, Guardians! The floodgates have burst open with Episode: Heresy unleashing an arsenal that's got everyone and their grandma scrambling through the Court of Blades like headless chickens. But hold your horses – half these shiny new toys are about as useful as a chocolate teapot in the Taken King's throne room.

🗑️ The Absolute Stinkers: 5 Weapons to Avoid Like the Plague

10. Abyssal Edge: Swing-and-a-Miss Meta Disaster

This wave-frame sword is DOA in 2025's sandbox. Why? Because Queenbreaker and Lord of Wolves are straight-up deleting bosses faster than you can say "Enrage timer." Heavy swords? That ship has sailed, cap'n. Even with Slice/Elemental Honing rolls, you'd have better luck trying to stab Oryx with a toothpick.

9. Eyes Unveiled: Linear Fusion Lemon

People Also Ask: "Are LFRs viable in Season 22?" Sure – just not THIS hot mess! Overflow/Reservoir Burst sounds juicy till you realize Discord's got zero damage-boosting buddies. It's like bringing a water pistol to a Wyvern fight – embarrassingly outgunned by every other heavy hitter.

8. Mirror Imago: Strand SMG Snorefest

No Firefly? No Kinetic Tremors? Bless your heart if you think this 900 RPM pea-shooter can handle add swarms. Overflow/Sword Logic ain't saving this dumpster fire – Barrow-Dyad laughs while it collects vault dust.

7. The Title: Guardian Games' Participation Trophy

Repulsor Brace/Destabilizing Rounds? Cute. But in today's pulse rifle meta, closing distance feels like running through molasses. Even Rangefinder can't polish this turd – it's a one-way ticket to respawn city.

6. Afterlight: Fusion Fiasco

No Controlled Burst? Talk about dead on arrival! Discord saves ammo but can't save face when Lotus-Eater exists. It's the weapon equivalent of bringing a knife to a gunfight – just don't.

💎 The Cream of the Crop: 5 Weapons That'll Make Oryx Sweat

5. Keraunios: Trace Rifle Thunderstorm

People Also Ask: "What's the best add-clear weapon in Heresy?" Look no further! Eddy Current/Jolting Feedback turns this into Zeus' personal lightning rod. Crucible? Meh. But PvE? This bad boy makes Thrall hordes vanish faster than Cayde's sense of responsibility.

4. Refusal of the Call: Glaive of Glory

Slice/Sword Logic is the dynamic duo we never knew we needed. Sever targets → boost damage → repeat? That's some chef's kiss gameplay loop for Glaive enthusiasts!

3. Anamnesis: Void Bow Vindication

Destabilizing Rounds + Dragonfly = EXPLOSION FESTIVAL! Volatile spreads like gossip in the Tower, making this the ultimate trash-mob deleter. PvP? Impulse Amplifier turns it into a rapid-fire nightmare – aimbot required.

2. Psychopomp: Arc's Crown Jewel

Rolling Storm + Envious Arsenal? Sweet Christmas! Bolt Charge builds faster than Shaxx's rage during Mayhem. With Arc dominating Episode: Heresy, this beast is mandatory equipment.

1. Lotus-Eater: Sidearm of the Gods

Reconstruction/Destabilizing Rounds turns this rocket-assisted monster into an ammo-spewing apocalypse machine. Grandmaster Nightfalls? Worth every sweaty palm. Pro tip: Watch the weekly reset unless you wanna get caught with your pants down!

🔄 Full Circle: Wisdom from the Warzone

So there you have it, folks – while Heresy's loot tsunami had Guardians frothing at the mouth, remember: not all that glitters is Gjallarhorn gold. Stick to these winners unless you enjoy banging your head against a wall (or Rhulk's glaive). Now get out there and make the Witness regret waking up this morning!
