In this Top 10 Starbound video, we run down the best rare melee weapons and ranged weapons you've ever been able to find in Starbound. Some were added in the very latest Combat Update, others have now been removed. But all are cool!

This list concentrates on weapons you find, rather than ones you craft, and doesn't cover the new random secondary attacks that some weapons have.

For more on Starbound weapons check out this video on the changes to two-handed weapons and combat mechanisms in the combat update:    • New combat, weapon & monster mechanic...

    It feels great to find one of these weapons in random chests in random planets where you're casually just exploring, these weapons are so bizarre, but cool.
  • @Huskie
    fuck off boomerang! Oh, it came back. Seinfeld theme plays
  • @GrayoftheGalaxy
    If you hold right click with any type of flamethrower,it puts out a kind of cloud of flame and if you let of right click,it all catches fire
  • @sampoulin9198
    I just love it when he complains about a set of rules... that he made
  • @basco416
    When you have 600 hours in this game and you've never even heard of these. Besides water sword
  • @yanebeeter
    I believe that #3 is called the Keemstar gun.
  • @potatoman1347
    This is the first video I've seen of you and I've already subscribed
  • @adamy.7053
    Found the 'Gnome Gun'. Interesting little item, but the damage output makes it essentially useless in combat. Still, it's a nice piece for my growing weapons archive. A pity so many gnomes had to die for me to find it, though. Such a pity.
  • @gate3929
    The weapon Star Cleaver appears to be a reference to Spectrobes. The weapon is similar to the weapons in it and the Cloud it shoots out appears to look like an item that you find at the start of the second Spectrobe game.
  • @Garma_Zabi
    I have two flamethrowers, and there are indeed different kinds. I have an orange and purple one, and they do differ in damage
  • @TotallyNotBTN
    Oh! We found the flamethrower in a random dungeon in our group and I use it constantly for the lower areas, it's so satisfying
  • how could i get a wurlitzer(music box) that's on your ship at the beginning???
  • @zathurian0155
    where do you usually find uscm bunkers I have been around the galaxy where I use to find them but all I find now is avian stuff?
  • I found the flamethrower, it seems to do damage at different ranges (which makes since) other than that, it's pretty good especially when you're at the point where you only have radiation protection.
  • Yo randomise, i was going around chest and i found a knife called: Splatterknife, but the thing is, it doesnt have damage at the wiki, but it damage is 3000. But the problem is, somehow the upgraded version has like 26 damage, DaFudge?
