Long Guns are your primary weapons in Remnant 2. Some can be full auto assault rifles, while others can be as wacky and creative as the Aphelion which can shoot Supernovas, or the Nightfall which can have infinite ammo for temporary time.

5 Best Long Guns In Remnant 2
These are the 5 best Long Guns you can currently get in Remnant 2:
- Chicago Typewriter
- Deceit
- Aphelion
- Merciless
- Nightfall
Chicago Typewriter
| Stat | Base Value |
|---|---|
| Damage | 10 |
| Rate of fire | 11 RPS |
| Magazine size | 80 |
True to its form in the Resident Evil series, the Chicago Typewriter in Remnant 2 is equally as powerful and also pretty easy to obtain right off the bat. With a magazine of 80 bullets, you’re going to put down most enemies in a single reload.
It doesn’t get any in-built unique mods like the other Long Guns in this list, but it only makes the weapon more accessible towards certain builds. This gun allows you to pick the Weapon Mod that will favor your build.
Deceit
| Stat | Base Value |
|---|---|
| Damage | 120 |
| Rate of fire | 2 RPS |
| Magazine size | 6 |
Deceit is yet another great weapon that can be obtained fairly early in the game if your first world is Losomn. This gun has a low magazine capacity but a high damage impact, with each bullet dealing 120 damage as its base damage. Stack that with your character buffs and leveling up and you have a very strong Long Gun in your hands.
It also comes with a unique Weapon mod called Ouroboros which can spawn swords around your character that spin in circles defending you.

Aphelion
| Stat | Base Value |
|---|---|
| Damage | 62 |
| Rate of fire | 2 RPS |
| Magazine size | 7 |
This is one for the elemental/explosive build characters. The Aphelion is an alien-looking gun that can shoot projectiles in a wide arc, causing multiple enemies to get hit at once. It is best used at mid-range for crowd control but don’t underestimate it for bosses as well. That’s because it comes with a Weapon Mod called Supernova which can fire a huge explosive blast that deals Fire and Burning damage over 10s to all enemies caught within it.
Merciless
| Stat | Base Value |
|---|---|
| Damage | 13 |
| Rate of fire | 8.6 RPS |
| Magazine size | 50 |
There is a reason why unlocking the Merciless literally requires you to be merciless and let the Ravager eat the Doe. The immense power of this Long Gun is unmatched when it comes to sheer DPS and bleeding damage.
The Weapon mod on this bad boy makes it clear why that is the case. The mod is called Bloodline, and it allows you to shoot penetrating projectiles that not only deal 150 damage but also have a 25% Critical damage bonus and a 3x Stagger bonus. But mainly, for every penetrated enemy, its base damage increases by a whopping 50%.
Nightfall
| Stat | Base Value |
|---|---|
| Damage | 31 |
| Rate of fire | 4.3 RPS |
| Magazine size | 10 |
The days of cheat codes, like infinite health and infinite ammo, are long gone… or are they? Because the Nightfall can have infinite ammo along with full auto fire at one of the highest fire rates in the game. When the game initially launched, this gun was said to be the most broken and overpowered of them all.
But even after its nerf, it still stands as one of the best Long Guns in Remnant 2. The infinite ammo is courtesy of its Weapon Mod called Dreadwalker. It also gives you a 10% life steal when shooting with infinite ammo enabled, a no-brainer for life steal builds.
