Hi!
So basically I'm thinking of getting myself one of those modules. I'm not really sure which one to pick so here goes. Note that i'll definitely not pick the ones for Gunslingers, so that might have narrowed my choices.
Alright. I'm a mixed player with a full Vog Cub set and a Dark Thorn Shield. And the weapons I mainly use are...
- Divine Avenger, ASI Low
- Silent Nightblade / Faust / Dark Thorn Blade, ASI Low
- Gigawatt Pulsar / Shivermist Buster
- Ash of Agni, CTR Med
And switch between them depending on stratum. So i. Wondering which trinket would benefit me more?
I was planning on getting a Bomb Focus, but then the only bomb I would use is the AOA, but seeing as the charge time is quite okay to complement my swordsplay i'm thinking I should ditch that and get a Slash Module or Sword Focus. Getting a Quickstrike would be redundant and Boom would not be ideal is I use my swords more. And that Pulsar of mine I only use on gunpuppies.
Options are,
- Sword Focus
- Slash
- Bomb Focus
Opinions ?
I really depends on how you like playing. If you like to spam your sword's charge attacks (probably DA is the best candidate for this), then the Sword Focus would be very useful. If you find yourself using normal attacks the most, then the Slash is really good. Personally, I'd go for the Slash module, since it helps with both your normal swings and your charge attacks, where as the Sword Focus is only useful when you use your charge. I also don't tend to use the charge on my BTB or Acheron much.
With that UV on the bomb, I wouldn't recommend the Bomb Focus since VH CTR is more than enough to take advantage of your AoA. The power from that bomb comes from the fire, not the initial detonation, so your current CTR is fine for maintaining a cloud of fire-haze everywhere monsters may be. My AoA doesn't have any UVs, and I can keep every single monster in an arena on fire all the time, so I think yours should be more than enough.
Edit: Oops, I didn't see that you have a Shiver. Well, you might consider the Bomb Focus if you find yourself being the Shiverlocker at Vana often, but I've Shiverlocked many times and have been in lots of parties where the Shiverlocker has CTR med on their bomb, and it's worked out fine.
