I like the sunset set because of its nice armor bonus versus normal and piercing, and slimes deal a mix of piercing and normal damage, right?
Also, my nightblade has a UV damage bonus versus slime.
If I use it to craft the next tier for that blade, will I still have that UV stat?
There is a checkbox for keeping a UV on an item when you upgrade it to the next level.
Your current gear will serve you very well against when delving into the Royal Jelly Palace, but you may find other levels more difficult without any Elemental resists. That said, enjoy the Fiery Pepperbox with Increased Attack Speed Ultra. That's a fun combo!
