I'm almost always leveling something, but am running out of things I feel like I really need. Maybe a driver or two? Nova and Hail or something? I dunno. Here's what I currently have...

Swords
Divine Avenger, Gran Faust, Leviathan, Acheron, Combuster, Glacius, Barbarous Thorn Blade

Handguns
Polaris, Blitz Needle

Bombs
Ash of Agni, Shivermist Buster, Voltaic Tempest, Nitronome, Radiant Sunshards, Electron Vortex

Helms/Armor
Vog Cub, Skolver, Divine, Mad Bomber, Volcanic Demo

Shield
Aegis, Grey Owlite Shield, Barbarous Thorn Shield

Except for Acheron and Gran Faust, you don't have much of anything shadow. How about Crest of Almire, Deadshot Mantle/Chapeau, and Umbra Driver or Biohazard?

(Your equipment is already great. I'm only recommending that you get more stuff because you said that you wanted more stuff. :)

Hmm

Yeah, your arsenal looks pretty solid. A shadow shield would definitely be nice either Crest of Almire or Dread Skelly.

Dark Briar Barrage is a pretty awesome piercing bomb, perfect for Wolver Dens and many danger rooms.

If you get an Alchemer have to consider what you want to use it for... FSC? Kiting/Crowd Control? Damage?

I've been thinking about a crest of almire for sure. Yeah, DBB is pretty awesome, I've seen it put to good use, I generally just suffer with sun shards though =P But it's definitely something to look into for the sake of rounding out my gear sets.

As for Alchemer... I started working on a cryo driver, because someone said it's so much better than Polaris, but really it's not even close to as good. He said their damage was good, but it's terrible. I can definitely see its uses for party play in FSC, or if you don't like the pushback or whatever, but I don't think I'll be spending CE on upgrading it any time soon.

That's because it's a cyro driver and ice is never good for damage. If you want damage get a firo driver or nova driver.

Glacius (even blizzbrand, to stay fair,) still hits like a truck, what's Cryo Driver's excuse? =P Even the charge shot leaves me greatly unimpressed. I usually only ever carry guns for A: FSC, or B: Gun puppy control when soloing t3 content. I can't imagine any situation where I'd want a driver of any kind over... any other weapon I could possibly carry.
