Tier List Framework
Renegades weapon tiers

|---|---|---|
| S | Best combination of damage and utility. | Endgame and weekly farming. |

How to Choose a Roll
Compare perks by the loop they support. A weapon that returns ammo or ability energy can outperform a higher sheet-damage roll when an activity has long waves. Keep one generalist roll and one boss-focused roll when storage allows.
- Match damage type to the current shields.
- Check perk uptime over a full encounter.
- Keep one backup heavy weapon.
- Do not delete a roll before testing it.
