Favorite weapon type?

What's your favorite weapon type, and why?

My top favorite are chain blades. I love the mobility, and being able to escape the behemoth, then quickly pull yourself back into the fight is a lot of fun. It's also nice being able to dash around the map quickly for gathering supplies. The ability to focus on severing parts or wounding them based on the attack you use is also a plus. My favorite chain blade combo is Blade Spin for ultimate slice-and-dice.
