Hi!
I would like you to help me ...
I'm F2P and my primary goal is to get several sets 4 * ...
After that I can choose any option 5 *.
My Gear
Helmets:
* Miracle hood (no UV) - Already bought a Divine Veil Recipe.
* Ash Tail Cap (no UV) - Maybe Skolver?
* Dusker Cap (no UV) - use for PvP
Armours:
*Ash Tail Coat (no UV) - Panning to get Vog.
*Sinister Skelly Suit (no UV) - Use this actually in FSC.
*Dusker Coat (no UV) - use for PvP
Shields:
*Wise Owlite shield (no UV)
*Dark Thorn Shield (no UV)
*Scary skelly Shield (no UV)
*Boosted Plate Shield (no UV)
*Swiftstrike Buckler (no UV)
Swords:
*Silent Nightblade (no UV)
*Sealed Sword x2 (no UV obviously) - planning to upgrade one in Faust and another in Avenger.
*Twisted Snarble Barb (no UV)
*Shockburst Brandish (no UV)
*Troika (UV ASI Low)
Handguns:
*Gigawatt Pulsar (no UV)
*Blackhawk (no UV)
*Needle Shot (UV Fiend Low)
Bombs:
*Electron Bomb (no UV)
*Freezing Vaporizer MK II (UV CTR low)
I do not have UV's because I sell all UV's I craft, keeping for myself only little UV's that will help me a bit, according to my gear.
(i already crafted a Boosted Plate Shield 2UV's : elemental MAX/ Shock Low, but I sold it ... xD
I'm mainly Swordsman, but I like to bring weapons(and bombs) to help me. I do not play solo, mainly in Teams.
Sorry for my bad english, i'm brazilian and i'm not using Google Translator ...
Any Advices?
How many weapon slots do you use at a time?
Simply put, you've sampled from a lot of the best stuff in the game. So you really just need to keep upgrading what you have. I can offer some superfluous comments on your stuff, I guess. I'll use the 5-star names, because one should always plan based on the 5-star versions.
In swords, I highly recommend Barbarous Thorn Blade. I vote for Voltedge before Divine Avenger, although the latter is also excellent. I vote for Acheron over Gran Faust. I recommend that you forget about the Troika for a while. My sword guide offers more detail.
In handguns, the Polaris makes a good sidearm, but it is not essential. The Blitz Needle is one of the most popular weapons for FSC, so that would make you more versatile and popular for FSC parties. Sentenza is great against gremlins; I use it in Operation Crimson Hammer.
In bombs, the Shivermist Buster is another weapon that would make you more versatile and popular for FSC parties. It also works well in fiend levels, for keeping devilites under control. Otherwise, I do not strongly recommend it. The Electron/Graviton Vortex is a really fun bomb.
You have a nice selection of shields; upgrade Owlite and Barbarous first. In armor, I always advise people to get a general-purpose set, before building specialized ones. So I'd advise you to go split Skolver/Vog Cub for now. But other people will advise you to go full Vog Cub for FSC, and they have a point.
