The Cortege’s primary fire has the second-highest status chance among Arch-Guns (40%) and the alternate fire’s status chance isn’t half bad (16.7%). This firing mode leaves flaming puddles that damage enemies that pass through them. The alternate fire launches three grenades that deal Area of Effect (AOE) damage on impact or upon remote detonation by pressing alternate fire again. Once you get 5 kills with the primary fire (get it? fire), your alternate-fire gauge gets filled up, allowing you to use it. It doesn’t eat up a lot of ammo so you can let it rip for as long as you want. The Cortege’s primary fire is a beam of flames that’ll quickly burn down ships and infested creatures should you choose to use it on the ground.

So how does this space flamethrower make any sense? Nevertheless, it works.

Space is a vacuum, no oxygen, no nothing. Some of these weapons may act differently or have different stats when used on the ground (Atmospheric Mode). Note that this list mostly focuses on the weapons’ capabilities while in Archwing mode. Here are five of the best Arch-Guns you can get in the game and why.

Note: Your Arch-Gun needs to have a Gravimag installed and you must have an Arch-Gun Deployer to use Arch-Guns in open-world environments. They were initially meant to be solely used in space through Archwings but have since been integrated into the open-world environments. There’s nothing like bringing in these big guns to flex on your foes. Out of all of Warframe’s colorful array of weapons, there is no other type of weapon more show-offy and eye-catching than the Arch-Gun.
