UVs nice but not needed.

I love my nitronome and it's easily my most-used weapon. That said, it was the least-used of the 4 I had with me when I last went into FSC, so when wondering what UV you want, don't worry about utility in the FSC. I used my hail driver most, followed by my sword and shivermist.

I have medium damage to slimes, which is a nice bonus. I don't think any UV would make the bomb a whole lot better. CTR is nice if you're not planning to use any demo armor or trinkets, but the volcanic demo helm gives a CTR medium and has just the defense you'll want for FSC (normal/elemental +high fire resist), so you may want to consider using it.

If you're rich, you can have 1 Nitronome for everything that Dark Briar Barrage doesn't kill...
Constructs
Slimes
Undead
Gremlins

Though if you only have 1 nitro, CTR Med is probably already pretty great.

Having a UV CTR Low on a

Having a UV CTR Low on a blast bomb will give you better DPS than UV Damage vs Type High. Try to get as close to Max CTR as you can using bomber armors, bomber trinkets, the bomb's natural level 10 CTR Medium and bomb UVs. With some combination of those, reaching max shouldn't be too hard for a bomber.

I use bombers with UV CTR Medium and a Mad Bomber Mask (has Bomb CTR Medium). So once the bomb reaches Level 10 and gets an inherent CTR Medium I now have Max CTR on the bomb. Medium (2) + Medium (2) + Medium (2) = Max (6).

Even for non-bombers though, just get a UV CTR Low or better and you're all set. Might not be able to reach CTR Max due to one's focus on swords/guns but It'll be more worthwhile than doing extra damage against one type of monster.

Get a full bomber suit, then you won't need UV

If you aren't cool enough to get bomber gear, you want UV CTR med or better
