My friend is asking for any good gun for Starters, and that its good when reaching 5* or 4*, Not blaster.
Anyone?
Best gun for starters?
alchemers are good for elemental damage, if u want plain normal, u can get neutralizer or supernova, if u want shadow, biohazard or shadowtech(antigua line not so good) and if u want pericing, autogun or magnus.
Cryotech alchemer is the best non-blaster for a beginner.
It does elemental damage, which is good against everything you want to shoot and only bad against things that dodge anyway (beasts and gremlins). It also immobilizes enemies, which slows down the game a bit and makes it easier for a new player to survive melees.
While the elemental pulsar line is more powerful, it is also more difficult to use and it is definitely not a beginner gun, because you have to beat a tier 2 boss just to get the first gun in that line. Start with the cryotech alchemer (I love my 5* Hail Driver) and use it in the IMF to earn the tokens to get the pulsar.
get an alchemer.
cryotech is a very good gun for surviving content over your gear or experience level.
firotech sets monsters on fire, so, since that is FR$AKING AWESOME, and does the most damage, you could also consider that.
the needle shot line of autoguns is also a good choice, since many people run one of those as a damage tool in their end game set.
it's good to grow up with it to get the practice.
autoguns are effective, but kind of wonky and leave you open if you miss.
-1 for Cryotech due beeing very annoying in arenas where you cant bump away mobs and frozen wolver even can teleport to you, beeing surrounded by them - frozen - you can't escape them.
I guess starter guns should be able to move, others are harder to handle. Alchemers are crappy with ** and *** but great at **** and *****. I recommend a Blaster if you gonna become swordie and i recommend Ele Alchemer + Magnus (harder to handle) for become a gunslinger.
It's the first non-Normal gun I had as an aspiring gunner, and I loved that thing while I was adjusting to the game.
Incidentally, -1 for Pulsar. It's a deceptively tricky gun to learn how to use, and poor usage will screw over you and your teammates.
Blaster nah, Normal dmg guns are worthless, becouse if you are a swordmaster you are going to use guns agaisnt turret the most time (same thing with bombers), and gunslinger need to cover the 3 types of dmg to really shine in a 4-man party.
other thing, alchemer are crappy only in **, the *** alchemer got buffed with 1 ricochet, speed bullet and bullet range.
normal damage guns aren't TOTALLY worthless... if u get a UV on one, it may prove to be okay. right now, i have a blaster, which has a UV against constructs. its very small, i think only a 2 damage difference, but it helps. i dont have elemental gun yet, im doing twins now to get pulsar. sometimes, u might want to get mormal damage guns not because of dmg, but because of how it works. calibur line is great, but it only does normal. so why does so many people use it? most people get it because of its charge. the calibur was my first sword and is now a levi, and i have grown to cope with its playing style. it is a great sword and the charge knockback has helped me in many situations. this is not a gun, of course, but im just saying it could be the same for a gun. plus, normal is good against everything. if u go on a jelly run, and u find out u equipped a magnus and a blaster, u can use the blaster since it is normal.
So yeah, Calibur as a great charge and can be use against almost everything, with only 1 slot, that's why lots of people use it.
Blaster doesn't have a great charge. It is almost useless against Gremlins, Devilites and Wolvers. It has crappy damage. A swordsman use a gun mostly for constructs. A gunner, well, he have several guns of different type.
See the difference ?
To repeat again, normal damage guns are almost worthless.
And if you go in a jelly run with magnus and blaster, you have a problem with strategy. You should do jelly run with elemental and shadow guns, then have bonus damage against everything save silkwings.
True ture! I recommend as normal beginner an achemer and the snarbolax piercing sword (forgot name D:), as swordie a brandish and a piercing sword and as gunner the magnus (3*) and an alchemer.
if you want to see any guns, i got them all and am ready to show them :)
Alchemer:
