Because I'm against the grain and refuse to look like every other player on this game. Who else uses the unpopular gear? Example; my last ditch effort weapon is the Cautery Sword.
A fan of unpopular gear

Cobalt all the way!
I have to admit, I love the way the cobalt armor line starts looking like after 3* , so I'm spending my crowns on that. I'm aiming to look like the spiral warden by the time I hit tier 3.

I can easily suggest OK guns that aren't so used...
1. Prismatech Alchemer
2. Volcanic Pepperbox
3. Iron Slug
4. Sentenza
I won't have an issue with armor though, since as a previous poster stated, they can be covered up. Go in full "Chaos" or "Volcanic Salamander" gear over your real armor... now that's a really expensive costume...

My current favourite layout
Helm: Royal Jelly Crown
Armour: Skolver set (got it purely because I thought it would look better with the crown)
Barbarous Thorn Shield (Alright, but only because I use it to beef up my Damage)
Weapon: Sentenza.
I also Own a Wild Hunting Blade, which I absolutely love using.
I like to have as my 4 weapons, my Barbarous Thorn Blade, Wild Hunting Blade, Sentenza and soon to be Argent Peacemaker.
That way, all the charge attacks involve animals!
I am intending to have my crown go with a Volcanic Plate Mail which I've begun building, not because it'll be better for FSC, cause I think it'll match the crown and shield.

Your thinking in my type of
Your thinking in my type of style!!! That is one of the reasons why I want the popular items nerfed, so that everyone can try out different loadouts and make them unique. But I gotta admit, I use popular gear too. Only for defenses purposes. But here is my Loadout:
Loadout 1 - Duel Winmillion Layout - Attack Class:
Weapons:
- Winmillion - UV low damage against bots
- Winmillion - UV medium attack speed
Defense:
- SwiftStrike Buckler
- Skolver Coat - UV of Minor Stun resist
- Divine Veil - UV of medium elemental defence
Trick: I swing 2x with my winmillion, block cancel, switch, and swing 2x with my other winmillion, and repeat. (People thought I was hacking in PvP, because I didn't have that little "rest" period after the third strike.
Loadout 2 - Default Winmillion Layout - Balanced Class:
Weapons:
- Winmillion - UV medium attack speed
- The elemental 5* 6-Shooter (Forgot the exact name at the moment)
Defense:
- SwiftStrike Buckler
- Skolver Coat - UV of Minor Stun resist
- Divine Veil - UV of medium elemental defence
Trick: I swing 2x with my winmillion, block cancel, switch to gun, shoot a couple of times, then repeat.
Loadout 3 - Heavy Khorovod Layout - Defesive Class:
Weapons:
- Khorovod
- Gravity Bomb 4*
Defence:
- Skolver Coat - UV of Minor Stun resist
- Divine Veil - UV of medium elemental defence
Trick: Basically a strike and run class! I lay down a bomb, the enemies get sucked in. I have enough time to charge up my weapon, then after that, I strike all of them in one clump! Then somewhat repeat.
Overall:
Yeah yeah, I know I have 3 common equipment that everyone has (Veil, Skolver, and 6-Shooter). But they are all defensive purposes, not attacking purposes. Most people thinks that a shield is used for defense. Nope! I almost never use my shield to take on strikes. I use my shield to bounce back the enemies and shield cancel all the time. Your defenseless if you just walk away from the enemy blocking your shield. What you should do is bounce back the enemy and run around them and then strike!
I see freakin DA and FA noobs rely too much on their shield. I say, "You stupid DA/FA noobs! Stop blocking and start attacking!" I don't understand why anyone would like these awful swords. They are too OP, too common, and it lessens the challenge.
Anyone who thinks the Winmillion sucks, your dead wrong. This sword is ment for the pros. Taking the FA/DA is just the ez way out, which I look down upon those who does that.
One of the reasons why I only have the Skolver and Veil for armor only is because 5* armor is expensive man! I do have a Vog Cap, but I realized it was the worst investment I ever put into. It just sucks! My swift buckler makes up for it.
@ NekoSniper - Neat! Your the 2nd person that I know is a fan of the Spur/Winmillion series. Do you want to do a run sometime and teach me some of your tricks and I can teach you mine (Lol, well I gave my tricks away)?

I was considering Chaos Cloak, I despise Divine Avenger, and I don't like the Vog Cub set.
Nice to see another person in this world of Vog Cub Coats and *shudder* Divine Avengers :D

Standard 'Spiral Knight' gear
Im at 4* gear at the moment, the stuff I use mainly is the standard 4*, you know, Mighty cobalt (helm low shadow def, body low ele def), mighty defender, ascended calibur (gremlin med dmg boost) and Master Blaster (ctr low).
I also have a vile striker, troika (got it to try it out, dont like), gigawatt pulsar (gremlin low dmg, which is pointless) (I know, polaris is highly used) and a fiery atomizer.
At least I havent gone into the Wolver series yet :D
I was thinking of trying a different type of gun from the three shot guns I have, any suggestions on something not-used-much-but-still-ok?

I just so happen to be. Some unusual stuff I use almost all the time...
- Dragon Scale Shield (UV Normal Def. - Med)
- Fearless Rigadoon (UV vs. Beast - High)
- Radiant Sun Shards
- Deadly Virulisk set
Vitasuit Deluxe!
Heck, you could make an entire medic set.
