Title says it...is there one out there?

As far as I am tracking the only weapons are rifles and blast assault.

    Not yet.

    So far it's rifles and pulsewaves. Though one of the Nukara sets has a sword.

    In my opinion, every rep set should consist of a rifle, pistol and melee weapon. Pistols especially need some purpose in general, there is no benefit of wielding a pistol over a rifle. So in my opinion it should be possible to combine pistols and melee weapons, like a phaser and stun baton for a starfleet set and a mak'leth and a disruptor pistol for klingons.

    There is a very narrow margin for Romulans to squeeze more damage out of a Romulan Plasma Pistol than a MACO rifle, but everyone else really needs this.

    Reminds me when the HG set went live, we were like - "why have a rifle butt attack when you got a bayonette at the end of the rifle?" It should have been a bayonette attack instead.

    Agreed, the KHG weapons don't even recieve melee boni. STOs melee system needs an overhault - close combat was always a thing in Star Trek and it could be majorly improved with some rather basic changes.

    No. Cryptic doesn't like pistols.
