Whats your best and worst weapons/weapon in Worms 2 Armageddon?



Best weapons include Napalm Strike, Concrete Donkey, Holy Hand Grenade, Baseball bat, Super Sheep, Sentry Gun and Banana bomb. Napalm Strike and Holy Hand Grenade are my 2 favourites out of all those.



Worst: Buffalo of lies, you can't rely on it much at all, don't like Uzi much either. Worst of all though, has to be the disastrous Team teleport. It teleports you to random places, and even transports you onto mines, although that may be fixed soon. Don't know how it made it in the game, should have let you choose where all 4 of your worms go, not random teleporting.

Well yes, it is a gambit weapon, a scapegoat of sorts. Its not meant to be used to get your team to a more strategic strike location, its meant to get your team the hell out of wherever they currently are! Having it act as four teleports with only one turn's cost is ridiculously overpowered.


Myself, the sentry gun. By far.

Even better, would be a teleport where you can choose 2 worms and choose where they go..... but the weapon can be really stupid, was winning a game, needed to use it, used it. 2 worms teleported near on oil barrel, which stopped me from winning....

Though the emergency teleport is very hit-or-miss, it has won the game for me on a few occasions (especially in the "it can't get any worse" scenarios where nearly all of your worms are on the lower half of a level and the enemy occupies the top). Of course, I've seen it lose the game for opponents a bit more often.

Sentry gun and earthquake are game-changers for me. . . especially in combination. I'm still trying to figure out when the sentry goes "dormant" (i.e., the gun points down and doesn't track). Is it after it lets loose a particularly long barrage of fire?

earthquake


How could I forget that? there's been a few times where that has being very useful, definitely one of my top weapons.
