10 overpowered Legendary weapons in Starfield

Starfield, the latest roleplaying game from Bethesda, moves away from the different locales in the continent of Tamriel or the various regions in the post-nuclear war United States. Instead, it allows players to jump into the cockpit of their spaceships and visit several star systems, each containing different planets to explore.

While exploring different planets, players will encounter many perils, including uninhabitable environments, alien creatures, and even hostile people. Regardless of what the threat is, players need something to deal with their enemies.

Starfield offers plenty of weapons for this very reason. Of course, players want the best weapons available, and none are better than the Legendary weapons in the game.

Here are ten Legendary weapons you should get your hands on in Starfield.
