FSC has tips, tricks, weapons, and armor sets galore
but with so many to choose from, there's gotta be a strategy/ weapon that you like better than the rest right?

For example, I like to have a Shivermist buster in the party because they're great for crowd control and Vanaduke, and I couldn't care less if you had a DA with you or not, but I've been kicked because I like to use my Glacius instead.
And I like bringing the totems along to deal with Trojans, but I'm too lazy to actually carry them, hoping someone else does it instead.

What about you guys?

Moving totems forwards is

Moving totems forwards is sucky. It's less fun and it's not hard to do that room sans totems.

I prefer a shivermister for vanaduke. My guildmate has a voltaic tempest which is ace for most of the levels. And I like having at least one blitz needle around for vanaduke.

But I don't care what you bring, as long as you use it well.

In a party I hope to have

In a party I hope to have somebody a max CTR Blitz Needle and hopefully a Bomber with Shivermist. Everybody carries either DA or Glacius and Polaris or AP (assuming they don't have Blitz). As long as you don't die a ton I don't care what you carry beyond that honestly.

I side with Gwen, but I'm

I side with Gwen, but I'm fine if you don't have a CTR on your Blitz or not, as long as you know what you're doing; I'd probably still be fine with a Strike Needle.

i prefer no one. the couple

i prefer no one. the couple minutes saved by having someone with a blitz is more than made up by going balls to the walls in each zombie room.

ain't no one gonna waste my time bringing up totems

i don't even stand on health pads anymore. they drop enough health as is.

Hehe, the max CTR Blitz is

Hehe, the max CTR Blitz is wishful thinking. Although I do like having one in general. 2k damage off a single charge is nice.

I also agree with Gwen.

Not that fond of Voltaic Tempest as the shock disrupts knockback too much for my taste (I use a DA so I like my knockback to be reliable and consistent).

People have to stop insisting on totems; they are way more of a hassle than they're worth. Also, blast away all rock cubes for maximum fighting space.

I'm going to echo the apparently common sentiment and say what I prefer to have is skilled players. Vanaduke can be beaten without Shivermist Buster and without Blitz Needle, and FSC can be beaten without the use of any singular piece of gear. All that said, it is very nice to be on a team with two Blitz Needles, two Shivermist Busters, two Dread Venom Strikers, and everyone carrying Divine Avenger. Someone get ahold of Charlie Sheen, because that's called Winning.
