Fire spider venom enhanced mind poisons. The amount of whining they generated in tells was hilarious. My response: "bring a doctor".
Remember, doctors couldn't heal mind. Only Combat Medics could do that.
As to my favorite weapon, my scythe, of course. I loved being a Master Swordsman/Master Doc. I used to spin Mokk lairs and made millions just by doing that.
It's unfortunate that more people didn't take advantage of looted damage stim packs that did heal mind. I used to loot tons of them from Dantooine and put them on a vendor. Some of them were actually quite powerful too.
To be honest, I've forgotten the names of any of the non-CDEF pistols. I had a pretty sweet Master Pistoleer/Smuggler hybrid, though, so whatever it was that he would've used. I seem to recall switching out between two different pistols depending on who I faced...

I was a big fan of the DX2 pistol. The range might've sucked on them, but if they were well crafted and sliced they could get up to 40ish meters and a bit better damage (thanks to AP1+acid damage) than the FWG5s.

Anyway! As a TKM, I loved my Katarn Knuckler. I was also a Master Swordsman and carried a decent Power Hammer. I loved turning on my Center of Being macro and going to work with that hammer. I was a decent tank for grind groups...and could then TK meditate to recover from all negative stats after a battle. I could never afford to by a Scythe Blade, but I never really found them to be that much better than Hammers.
I tried BH long long ago (pre-CU) for just a few weeks before focusing on melee. I had a cool Scatter Pistol (?) and Electric something-or-other. They made cool sounds.
Then before the NGE, I became a Jedi and created a decent lightsaber. I used the curved hide-wrapped hilt. Thought it was very fitting for a Wookiee, as it had an organic shape and used the natural hide. (used photoshop to insert a custom story for my saber)
Zabrak Life Enchance Ability: Restore all bars anyone
Run away, Im a rifleman, Run up to me Im a swordsman, get a little low on life, Zabrak heal. Oh I killed so many people this way. They couldnt get away, LOL.
When I wasn't weilding my lightsaber pre cu I was using my scythe, I went through so many of them just grinding away on nightsisters and rancors. I also loved my executioner's hack, it was just cool looking (but wasn't as good as my scythe)
Coming from console gaming, I was used to the strategy of 'go out and buy the baddest weapon you can afford', so I did delivery run after delivery run so I could afford a Launcher Pistol. The beauty of it all is a noob could equip a fricken Launcher Pistol and go hunting durnis with it. I remember blasting away at those fricken durnis with my launcher, not doing any damage AT ALL to those stupid things. A more advanced player walks up to me and politely asks 'I see you're obviously not certed for that thing'... I say 'What do you mean certed?'. Then he says 'Equip your Cdef, then shoot the Durnis and see what happens'. My mind was blown. While I was disapointed that I couldn't be super strong right out of the box, a greater part of me appreciated the limitations imposed on me, and gave me something to strive for.
I remember the day I became certed for that damned Launcher Pistol... those durnis nearly became extinct.
Skywalker Special 2.1 Light-saber, had 4 kryat pearls in it. hehe
Which hilt are you talking about? Have any screenies of it?
Anakin Skywalker's original hilt is in the game....that hilt became Luke Skywalker's first, of course. Luke later made his own hilt modeled after Obi-Wan's last hilt.
Actually, the rocket launcher and heavy laser cannon had pretty cool animations too.
Ahh I remeber the first time I fired the rocket launcher while fighting a at-st. I clicked on it to fire then screen frooze up and I crashed lol.
I would say when I first started I loved useing the FWG5 pistol(I think that is what it was called). I also liked all the heavy weapons and the orginal flamethrower. Can not forget that rocket pistol I use to kill meatlimps with it just for kicks. Even though I was only a Master pikeman for 1 week I enjoyed the pike or was it called a lance I can not remeber. Was long and black with a point on top and blunt ball like thing on bottom. I think I had to many favorite..oh can not forget the lighting gun from BH that was a fun one to use. I went from BH to heavey weapons in commando thanks to it.
My Krayt-filled FWG5. Pre-nerf. It broke in a repair tragically, and its replacement didn't come close to the same damage output.. 100DPS less.

Nightsister Energy Lance. That was a sexy wep. My LVA was more effective though. Post-CU would be the Kashyyyk Bladestick.
I had every polearm in the game. Even the ones you couldnt equip

Krayt Rifle (cant remember exact spelling, but its the one where you need components from those big dragonish beasts).
Did wonders for me as a RM/CM .......damn i loved those good 'ol days when SWG was at its prime.
Personally?
My Expceptional DXR6 Rifle, with a 33% slice... I'd pup it up and go Jedi hunt'in
I'll start my own SWG... with Black Jack... and Hookers!!!
In fact, forget the SWG!!!!

For all around effectiveness and style:
1. FWG5 - favorite pistol for looks and near the top in damage. Heat resistance was scarce in the wild.
2. Laser Carbine - decent damage and range modifiers, AP1, looked cool too.
3. Vibro Knuckler - that sweet entertainer might at any time whip one out and smack you in the jaw for getting too fresh. Hawt.
For looks only:
1. 2-H Cleaver - Used to have my chef run around with one
2. Elite Carbine, stocked and scoped - coolest looking carbine, but hard to craft well
3. EE3, stocked and scoped - the pre-Mando way to be a Boba Fett wannabe

I agree!! first proffesion I mastered! and it was awesome.

Also loved the power hammer, as i never had a synche, i was too poor
And a decent nightsister lance with a nasty disease dot rocked too!
My favorite weapon towards the end of my SWG career - Scatter Pistol
Beginning to middle - Laser Rifle
This topic brings a tear to my eye.
Skill based weapon certs were the $h!t!

My favorite preNGE weapon?
My gurreck and my LLC.
CH, Jedi, Commando, Smuggler, BH, Scout, Doctor, Chef, BE...yeah, lots of SWG time invested.
Once a denizen of Ahazi
Among my very favorite animations they were.
One of the many things taken away from us by the NGE that will never come back.

2. Heavy Weapons
3. Flamethrower
4. T21 rifle
5. Rocket Pistol
My Krayt-filled FWG5. Pre-nerf. It broke in a repair tragically, and its replacement didn't come close to the same damage output.. 100DPS less.
