Blitz is considered the best weapon to use in Splitgate 2. It is a shotgun with an extremely fast fire rate, which, when combined with the advanced movement of Aeros, becomes extremely powerful in close-range combat.

Moreover, with the game being heavily reliant on movement mechanics, the Blitz is perfect as it enables you to run-and-gun precisely.

The Trailblazer is one of the best assault rifles to use in Splitgate 2. Although the gun has a relatively low fire rate, the insanely high damage output more than makes up for it. You can even increase its fire rate and power by adding the Rapid Fire attachment.

Therefore, if you are confident with your aim, the Trailblazer should be your best buddy in-game.

3) Synapse

The Synapse is another powerful assault rifle in Splitgate 2. Compared to the Trailblazer, it has a lower damage output but a faster fire rate, leaving a larger room for error for the player wielding it.

If you wish to use assault rifles, it is highly advisable to start off with the Synapse and then move on to the Trailblazer when you are more familiar with the gunplay mechanics in the game.

4) Quantum

The Quantum is a burst-fire rifle suitable for long-range combat in the game. It belongs to the Meridian class but is a decent option for any class in a battle royale build. Moreover, you can increase the gun’s fire rate by attaching Rapid Fire and Bullet Burst, which also make it even more powerful.

Although the weapon is a good choice in battle royales, it is advisable not to use it in Arena modes, as you can quickly get run down by SMGs and shotguns.

5) Hyperline

The Hyperline is the carbine rifle for Meridians in Splitgate 2. It has a very high fire rate, which is important when using a carbine. This is best used in battle royales, as it allows you to engage in long-range combat with ease.

Furthermore, to unleash the gun's full potential, you can use the Barrel Extension and Rapid Fire attachments, making it deadly in early and mid-game engagements.
