Processing Thoughts of You Always

Upgrade your Brandish lines and Swift Flourish, as well as your Freeze Alchemer. Don't bother with the autogun yet since it's more trouble than it's worth right now. (Freezing Alchemer wouldn't be my first choice; I would personally go for pure damage, but it's your choice.)

If you're getting Sealed or Antigua, I would get the DA and AP lines first rather than the shadow lines; gremlins tend to dodge and the Faust line charge can autocurse, which is a nuisance if you're only using 2 weapon slots.

Your Divine Veil/Skolver Coat should see you through most things, since by the time it's fully upgraded you'll probably have enough skill to dodge most things anyway.

Go with the Owlite. Defender line is pants and doesn't protect against any status, unless you get the Heater (which is also pants). Owlite protects against two of the most dangerous status effects, which is what you want.

With regards to bombs... Blast Bomb lines get quite a bit of flak for the flash, but they do high damage and are good if you're soloing. It takes some skill to avoid knocking foes into your teammates, so be careful with that thing. (A better starting option would be the Spine Cone line, which does piercing damage with no knockback or flash.) A Freezing has small radius at starting level, but can be helpful to begin with if you have problems dodging.

piercing, elemental, shadow weapons

We don't have the key information, which is: exactly how many weapons, of which types, do you like to use?

If you're into swords, then upgrade one piercing sword, one elemental sword, and one shadow sword. The same advice goes for guns. The same advice does not apply to bombs, which are more idiosyncratic. If you want to use a mixture of swords and guns, then upgrade your elemental gun, piercing sword, and shadow sword. I could go on like this...

If you want to do FSC, then upgrade your elemental sword, freeze bomb, and either a piercing or elemental gun (depending on whether you want to do Vanaduke or just the rest of FSC).

Getting an Antigua should be low on your list of priorities, because you already have an elemental gun, and you have no pressing need for a shadow gun.

With the information you gave, the 2 replies you've gotten is enough. If you answer Bopp's question, we can answer more.

in case it's not clear

It's pretty common in some English dialects. In case it's not clear, that word means "with". I take "3star cum2star" to mean "3-star mostly, but some 2-star still". In some dialects (including USA), people use that word quite differently, yes.
