11. Coilspine Shredder

best returnal weapons ranked

Despite the fact that the Coilspine is a high damage-dealing sniper rifle, the trade-offs with reduced movement speed and time-to-kill just don’t make sense in Returnal.

The Coilspine Shredder is a great damage-dealer, but with only one round in its magazine (unless you have the right Traits), you need to be very accurate. Factor in the amount of bullet hell and movement in Returnal, and that is a recipe for disaster. Good for early-game testing, bad for endgame completion.
