All Weapons in Atomic Heart, Ranked
Since there are numerous weapons at your disposal, it’s not as helpful to simply tell you which are the best. We find it much more effective to rank them from best to worst. Here is our tier list for all usable weapons in Atomic Heart:
The following are the best known weapons in Atomic Heart:
Electro
The Electro is a gun that uses energy from your Polymer Glove, instead of traditional ammo. While it may not outperform the KS-23 or Railgun in damage, it provides the bonus ofneeding no ammunition. The Electro is alsoextremely lightweightandrecharges decently fast.
Railgun
Are you looking to deal damage to multiple enemies at once with aneasier aim? Then look no further than the Railgun. It will send bullets flying at high speed in a straight shot. You can mow down a lot of enemies at once with this one, especially because of itshigh damagerate.

While not as good as the Electro and Railgun, the following weapons provide decent damage and utility, making them our second picks:
Fatboy
The Fatboy is an impressive rocket launcher withheavy damage infliction. It has a few issues, though. It willslow you down considerably, only work where you have some space to shoot, andammo is hard to come by/craft. This makes it a bit tricky to use, but it is insanely powerful and useful. It is especially this case when you have a large group of enemies.

This included shocking, freezing, telekinesis, and a lot more.Versatility and ease of useare the Polymer Glove’s best strengths.Energy use and limits on powertake away a bit.
