Hi guys, i was just wondering which gun should i take when i go to vanduke. they both have peircing damage, and i want to know which gun should i get to start upgrading it. Thnxs for ur suggestions. :D
Blitz needle or peacemaker
If you are good in handle guns, use the Blitz, it deals way more damage.
If you are not as good with guns (and unfortunately 95% of all player aren't) use the peacemaker.
Blitz with CTR.
The charge attack from blitz is deadly. The Blitz Needles charge attack deals around 2.5x the damage, against Vanaduke, compared to the basic attack.
Blitz deals way more damage on everything--its charge attack deals about 140x15 damage to Vanaduke.
Dunno why everyone's still so caught up about AP--it has not seen the light of day ever since I got my blitz weeks ago.
The only problm I have with the Blitz is that I spend 90% of a VD fight tanking/kiting him thanks to the vastly higher damage I deal with it over the APs of the people I run with. (Solo I single-shot hail driver bullets into him, then charge the blitz when he's frozen).
Basically:
1. The Blitz is better against trojans.
-With proper gear, a blitz charge can one-shot a Troan. Even if it doesn't, it generally only takes 2-4 normal shots (depending on heat and gear) to take one down.
2. The Blitz is better for removing silkwings
-Not terribly popular in FSC, nevertheless the wide spread and high damage of the blitz can often remove those obnovious little healers quickly from a good distance... while still putting on hurt on nearby mobs.
3. The Blitz is reasonably good against undead.
-The damage on the blitz is comparable (actually, a little higher) than the AP on normal zombies. You lose some mobility, but if you aren't a pure gunslinger with an elemental gun then it's perfectly acceptable to use it on them. Even as a pure gunslinger I use the blitz in certain events in FSC.
4. Nothing, and I mean nothing, outdamages the blitz in VD. Be prepared to practice your kiting.
@Jamini
Are you able to use the Blitz to 1-shot trojans in a 4man Vana party? What sort of gear would be considered proper gear for doing so?
I'm strongly considering making a Blitz for FSC due to the high damage on Trojans and Vanaduke, but I'd like to invest in the optimal Damage UV to do a Trojan OHKO at 4 player difficulty; while still being able to use CTR Med Gun trinkets.
