I can't decide.
Needle shot is the cheapest, but also piercing damage.
Toxic needle does slight less damage, but has poison effects. (Also very expensive.)
Pepper box is the weakest, but does normal damage and has fire effects.
(Already chose needle shot, thanks guys.)
Pepperbox, Needle Shot or Toxic needle?

Well, I started off with the needle shot. I haven't done any gameplay with it. (But I should be :L)
Although, I think that piercing is one of the worst elements you could use while versing monsters, so I'm thinking of getting a pepperbox. Sadly, it doesn't do that much damage. But it still has that fire effect, is it worth the trouble?

?!
Piercing is one of the special types of damage. Piercing is strong against fiend and beast. Piercing is neutral against gremlin and undead. It is only weak against jelly and construct.
Don't tell me you've been running Royal Jelly Palace with a Needle Shot or something of the like.

Hmm...Now that I've thought of it, piercing isn't THAT bad.
It's just that I've been running into jellies and constructs a lot now...

I think you're a little confused. Normal damage is generally a bad thing, not good. With only two weapon slots, you can hit all monsters for neutral or super-effective damage. Normal weapons are only useful when you need some kind of catch-all utility weapon for your 3rd/4th slot, or if the weapon has some unique property that allows it to overcome the huge damage loss. Autoguns don't have a lot of utility; their strength lies in burst damage and dps.
That said, Needle Shot all the way. It's by far the most powerful of the three, it does Piercing damage, it's easy to get, and Poison isn't good enough to make up for the lost damage imo.
Pairing the Needle Shot with an Elemental weapon will allow you to deal with the Constructs and Slimes.

Thanks guys. ^_^
Okay. I'm going with the needle shot.
(I just don't like how I can't move while shooting)
Depends on your needs, really, But I would bypass the Plague needle myself, it only really shines in a team of blitzers against Vanaduke as it still does less damage than the Blitz even with poison
