Ok it is said that the buster rifle on the original Wing Gundam was the most powerful. but the twin buster rifle that Wing Zero has seems to be better or at least equal in terms or power, plus it doesnt have a three shot limit. and furthermore, vayeate [which is cool] has absolutely no limit on the shot capacity, as long as it has the particle accellerator. so which one actually is the best? ive been milling this over for a while, and i am tempted to side with the twin buster, as it seperates into two. but then again, vayeate's is limitless....

Wing Zero's Twin beam Buster rifle is more powerful than Wing's regular Buster Rifle and the Vayeate's Beam Cannon (despite it's near-limitless ammo thanks to that particle accelerator). The Zero's Rifle is capable of destroying entire colonies, something that the Wing's rifle and Vayeate's cannon can' do. Think of it like this, take a single-shot shotgun and a double-barreled shotgun, the single-shot is powerful enough on its own; but imagine gettin' both barrels from the double-barreled shotgun at the same time. It's not exactly a perfect analogy, but I think u catch my drift.

i thought that it took both riflestogether to equal up tho that of the first... maybe i was wrong.

Nah, it's like gettin' blasted by 2 Buster Rifles at the same time, that was my point. Wing's Buster Rifle lacks the power ta destroy a colony, whereas Zero's did have that power. It's only when Zero's rifle is split that jus' 1 of the rifles is equal ta Wing's Buster.

then it is far more powerful than i foreseen...[palpatine]

i still liked Vayeate's gun really well. as for the original buster, i donno.

The thing that was really special 'bout the Vayeate was it's particle accelerator. Long after most weapons would run outta power, the Vayeate could keep on truckin'.

Got that right! Man, they totally sucked. If it weren't for the shields that were copied from the Mercurius, they would be even bigger cannon fodder that the Leos.

It may be true that the buster rifle and twin buster rifle where the strongest. I thought that for awhile after it blew up a colony, but after seeing Endless Waltz personally I think the rail cannon on the Tallgessee III custom was alot stronger. It blew up MO3(I think thats right) with one shot. Plus it looks so much more cooler than the others.

to give it numerically

buster cannon (what you've called the rifle): lets give it an arbitrary 100
Buster rifle (only one): 95
that other rifle that i can't spell: about 95

the two buster rifles together: roughly 300-450. the power isn't caused by an actuall greater output, but by the fact that the rifle focusses the shot more. the cannon had the most power, but it was spreaed to thin to do the damage that the rifle did, but it COULD catch multiple enemies at once.
