Hi
I'm a relatively new player, and I'm looking for some advice about weapon and armor choice.
I'm planning on being a swordsman, and on using light to medium swords as my main weapons.
my current items are:
Dusker Coat (+high elem defense)
Wolver Cap (+medium poison defense)
Defender (+low elem defense)
Nightblade (+medium damage vs. Gremlin)
Searing Edge
I've abandoned the Searing Edge, and am now using the Nightblade as my main weapon and a Super Stun Gun as a ranged weapon.
I'm planning to add an elemental Brandish (haven't decided which one) and a Flourish, to cover all damage types.
Onward to the questions:
1. considering the I'm using fast swords, should I capitalize on speed with Vog Cub or offset my lower damage with Skolver armor and helm?
2. I'm close to being able to buy a Snarble Barb. Should I go with that line instead of the Flourish?
3. I'm planning on replacing my shield soon. I was planning on an Owlite, but the bristling shield line looks good because of the +damage. which is better?
Here's what i would do if i were you.
The Coat since it has a high elem def i might consider going for skolver, and maybe get another one to change into a vog. That way i got the skolver for farming JK runs for money, and a vog for FSC.
The Cap i would prob turn into a vog for FSC cuz of obvious reasons, and to combo with the skolver coat +elem when im doing JK.
I would prob use owlite for FSC cuz of the elem def and decent normal def, and bristling for JK cuz of piercing def and + dmg means i kill faster (JK runs are boring but u need the money so its good if you can do it faster).
I would go for snarble cuz it looks better while the stats are more or less the same with a flourish.
Elemental brandish? go for the ice one i guess since FSC are all fire, altho prob its better to level and use a DA to cover your elemental dmg since its also very useful in FSC. Especially the charge atk. Then again if you got lots of CE to spare (unlike me) why not make all of them :)
