weightiest

Of greatest gravity

Weightiest is the superlative of weighty—the heaviest or most significant of a group.

Physical weight applies: the weightiest package in the shipment.

More often the sense is figurative, describing matters of great importance or consequence: the weightiest decisions of his presidency, the weightiest arguments against the proposal.
