Wavebuster is like sex in a electrically charge BDSM package.

You can do it in Prime 2 and Trilogy, but it's not as fast.

The Wavebuster for sure! Also the Sonic Boom was pretty cool as well!

If I was to answer, I had to say which combo is most effective. Since those who don't work properly or use up too much ammo (Echoes) are out of the equation.

So I'll say the Ice Spreader. I only use it when I'm bored, but mostly it's for killing off MP in a snappy.
She turns white in the face - you take out the Ice Spreader and shoot her. She freezes up and then rushes past you. You charge up another shot and fire at her before she has the chance to change color again. Great.

Or you can freeze a lot of metroid or stupid space pirates at once.

However I think that for another game (seems like they made a lot already), they seriously need to think through the combos more. And I mean a LOT. And more importantly, test them in-game.

I mean; who the hell wants to use the Sunburst? It's S.L.O.W. (should be called slow burst) and IF you hit something with it, you have managed to use up WAY too much beam ammo.
Sonic boom is at least quick, but I never use it still, because it eats so damn much ammo. The whole idea with limited ammo in Echoes was a terrible idea. The game is hard enough as it is! I object...

For the first MP, the wavebuster eats a ridiculous amount of missiles before it even hits the target and deals damage. The flamethrower had no range and if you'd use it on MP, she'd just give you a bitch slap for getting so close (why can't she be stunned??).

Maybe they could release some betas of the next game for the general public so we can be the judge before we have to accept more or less bad ideas?
Like I said, the combos for Echoes are awful.

Isn't it discouraging; that every enemy and foe that absorbs Samus's powers or has some other power is so totally superior, as compared to when Samus herself absorbs some power? She is never totally superior, except about her usual stuff that she always carries around, but that is often useless against key opponents. It's like you walk around among hoards of enemies but are never really prepared. She should be, by now, after all those enemies she has met.
If she doesn't keep the weapons after each game, she should at least have gained more experience and power from having had them. Lack of continuity.
I one was to really complain.

Either way, they need to better think through the weaponry for the next game(s). And no frickin beam ammo! >_<X

has to be the wavebuster.
it looks by far the best although the flamethrower looks good as well.

My personal favorite is the Wavebuster, for exactly two reasons. One, although it is useful, it isn't the Super Missile. The developers added the need for the Super Missile quite a bit. I'm not docking this, but it is a common weapon.

Two, I can say in three words: Cloaked Sentry Drone. Sequence break, pick up the Wavebuster early, and you can kill the thing in five seconds flat (five including charge time).

Wavebuster is amazing for taking out groups of Wave Troopers without taking damage, and it also makes beating Ridley a cinch.
Suckers.
