And now from the other end of the elemental spectrum of limited weapons from the past we have the Pyrocannon. Again keep in mind this is a look back on weapons that WERE available at one time but are no longer.
First thing to know off the bat is that this weapon is listed for normal price the 20% sale is over, secondly there are 68 left at the time of this writing out of the 150 originally released.
It is a niode based flame weapon available to levels 8 and up. Now this weapon is easily beat out by the birthday fist niode flame weapon available at level 1. But I would say that is a special case as you can only get 4 total, aside from that the first niode based slam weapon you'll run into is at level 19. Then you will find yourself having access to the Red Plasma weapon.
Even with that though the Pyrocannon can give it a run for its moneyt. R.P. does 27 damage with a speed of 105, and a burn of 6%. Compared to the Pyrocannon with its 35 damage, 101 speed, and abilities of Burn at 3%, and Precision at (3). The Pyrocannon has superior damage, but looses out to the R.P.'s speed. The R.P. also has a higher percentage base for its weapon ability, whereas the Pyro has multiple abilities that are half of the R.P.
So a level 8 can get a hold of a nice damage weapon right out the gate, that buries the damage on a weapon 11 levels higher.
