Depends on what kind of robot you use it on and what its purpose is. For medium range anti-armor purposes on a slower, more sniping or fire support oriented robot, the Pin is probably your best bet. Its range compared to the Pin means you can stay well out of effective range of Gatlings and Thunders, but you can still deal effective damage to enemy robots even if they are behind cover and then quickly retreat to reload.

On the other hand, if you have a brawling robot, definitely go for the Piñatas. These rocket shotguns are an absolute nightmare at close range and you don’t have to hit the target to deal damage. While they have a longer reload and shorter range, if you have a brawling robot, then you will be used to getting up close and personal. Simply seeing a Piñata can often act as a deterrence for enemy pilots. It has an unrivaled fear factor among most weapons.
