Salutations, my forum compatriots. After embarking on several hat-based adventures, I'm back on SK. When I logged back on, my Aurora guildies were talking about some new guns or somethin'. So, I checked the forums for more info and-omgaksjlajfdakldjf TEH GUNNAR UPDAET IS 4 REALZ!!!!111!!!!1
I have since then started on one of my alt knights, whom I plan to get lots and lots of guns for. Could you guys give me a lowdown on the alchemy paths and new weps? The wiki's a bit too cluttered for me.
Antiguas, Autoguns, pulsars, and blasters all get new lines, you can use the base weapon to work up from.
Magnus got a sister line, but you have to hunt for ALL the recipes from basil since the base weapon is different.
There are numerous gunner lines of armor
You start at the base set and have 3 choices, each of those have 4 choices of status resists. Each of those have 3 end variants; two being specialized damage perks, and one being a basic gun damage perk.
For all the new recipes of the GU have to be found at Basil's shop.
______________________________
Autogun regular attacks became faster and more viable in PVE and PVP.
Catalyzer works backwards now. The regular attack now tags and the charge detonates.
Sheildless switch shooting alchemers is now slower and you get damage just as easy (maybe better) by just spamming one.
Magnus lines (and the sister line) charges are now buffed up to Brandish levels of ridiculous power.
Pulsar damage was exchanged for some bullet speed.
Also, I'm looking for a shiny new gun. Do any of the new or tweaked guns compliment the ol' wolver/archeron/bts loadout in particular?
Blasters and Antiguas have always been good compliments to swords.
The new gun I've been using the most though is the Dark Chaingun (more specifically, the Grim Repeater).
Just refer to the patch notes to see which guns are new, and then look them up on the wiki. There's no new gun line from the update, just more branches. There have been two new gun types which were released a while ago, probably after you left. Tortofists and the Overcharged Mixmaster.
