I've been using overframe and Cephalonwannabe to get a feel for what's good and not.
They differ a lot from each other though. So what list is more reliable?
Looking to use a catalyst and some forma on a melee weapon. I have Lesion and Orthos prime but not sure which one to boost.
Any other melee i should consider? Unvaulted though!

They are both questionnable. The best tierlist is in your own head
Ah so Gorgon and the Boar are S tier.
reject meta, embrace personal taste
boar is a highly cultured weapon and that makes it good
As a newer player I've found the Overframe ranking quite accurate, at least for frames (I've not acquired many top tier weapons yet).
Only frame I would bump up to S rank is Wukong, and the proof is in how many people use him.
I think the weapon lists are also pretty accurate, but ultimately still comes down to your personal preference. Best example I can think of being Kronen being rank 1, but Stropha has always been my go-to for the backup shotgun.
Definetly consider Guandao Prime, its a monster with just a 2 forma build
Cephalon is a bit more expert based. Both are quite subjective. Anything that you like is worth a potato and forma in the long run.
I'd recommend getting Reaper Prime

I'm a big fan of Zaws. Plague Kripath is currently available and is very good as a high speed high crit polearm, but there are many excellent Zaws. Nikana Zaws stand out because of their interaction with Amalgam Daikyu Target Acquired, giving you free life steal.
Outside of that, many weapons are great. The two you listed are very good. Lesion is a status monster, which works well with Healing Return. I would recommend building it along those lines. Orthos Prime is a more traditional damage monster. You can't really go wrong with either one.
Thank you man! Think I'll go with the lesion for now :)
Orthos Prime is fantastic. Forma it up
Overframe's is based on community votes, and the community puts puncture mods on things, so I would trust the other one more.
