Okay, so I have two base items with some good UVs on them that I'm trying to decide which would be the best alchemical path to take. I tend to change my gear, but its almost always divided into elemental (Avenger/Cryo Driver), shadow (Nightblade/Shadow Driver), and piercing (Barborous Thorn Blade).
The first one is an Autogun with UV Medium Vs fiends. I planned to get an Autogun originally for Blitz Needle (specifically to take care of those annoying Devilites and overpowered Alpha Wolvers) but I've heard Volcanic Pepperbox was also a pretty viable gun with its ability to ignite stuff.
The second one is a Blast Bomb with UV Medium Vs slime. I originally was going to turn this into a Graviton Bomb, but I've been getting mixed views about its usefulness (small radius, not having much damage, etc). It was going to be my main shadow weapon before then, or would it be better to invest in the other bomb types?
nitronome -> blast
ash of agni -> kite - recommended
radiant sun shards -> no description in order to avoid being considered a procreation
graviton -> fun
keep in mind bombs dont always explode, when u get hit after placing them
i doubt a gun would be any good against wolvers or devilites, only against trojan horses its pretty neat, but a sword does the same job without leaving u shield-less, other than that the needle gun is fun, but thats it
no specific recommendations for guns, u could try that ask a master gunslinger anything thread
