Could people help me decide for FSC?
Sword: Avenger or Leviathan Blade
Secondary weapon: Spike Shower or the other sword from last decision
Is it worth it to upgrade through Strike Needle from an Autogun?
Should I craft through Owlite line if I already have Aegis?
If I'm not amazing at getting away to charge, should I be a Shiver?
EDIT: I'm pretty much only talking about the levels, not Vana. BTW: Aegis is the only shield that I have better than 2*
If you know its the upteenth why didn't you just read the other threads? Also, more like the upthousandth.
Levi is only really useful for the mask phase and if you are doing a 2 weapon loadout then I would not bother with it. Snarby bomb or sword are not needed if you have Blitz/Plague Needles in your party.
If you are competent enough to use an Aegis in FSC you may as well be using BTS (Snarby shield) and get the sword damage bonus. I find the Grey Owlite Shield to be the most protective in FSC (unless you are getting smashed by Vana's mace, Slag Guards, or Trojans). Dedicated FSC Blitz gunners tend to use the Swiftstrike Buckler (you need to not need a shield in FSC to do this though).
Pick the role you want to fill and gear for that or pack for everything (4x weapon slots). If you are a sword user though, you will use an Elemental sword for 99% of your FSC run.
For FSC just make a shivermist buster and a blitz needle. Then get either the avenger or levi (doesn't matter; levi is better for the mask phase/troljams, DA kills everything else better), and you'll be set. I'd recommend the levi though, as you can kill everything with blitz just fine. Remember to toggled full inspect to off so that people don't see through your armor (unless you've got a nice competant looking vog/skolver set or something akin to that)
