yep
Yes, as Fehzor said, this is all standard sworder stuff, right down to the three damage types and the easy-to-use elemental gun sidearm. I'd replace the gun with Nova/Storm Driver (if you are willing to learn a harder but better weapon) or Polaris (if ease of use is your priority).

Because he's using swords, I'd say its really a matter of preference. Yeah, he can use the alchemers and that'd be more damage for about the same amount of utility and environmental control, but I kind of like argent peacemaker when I'm using swords. It isn't his main source of damage, so I really wouldn't make him stress out over it.
But blitz needle on the other hand IS something to stress out over- people will expect you to have one at a certain point in the game, and you can be joe-popular by popping it out for that one run. Speaking of which, get rid of gran faust for it when you do go to FSC. Your flourish is mildly useful there due to it's speedy nature- you can whip slags around and thats kind of amusing.

agreed
Yep, I agree with everything Fehzor just said.

I was thinking of replacing
I was thinking of replacing Argent peacemaker in favor of Valiance, just to be able to play keep-away when necessary and not have to worry about resistances. I do intend to make a Leviathan too.
I'm going to make multiple weapons, but I only intend to run with ONE armor set and add UV's to it, because it benefits my swords the mosts, grants defense against the most important tier 3 damage type/status effect (Shadow is laughable, Piercing is a worry though), and I also intend to accessorize the hell out of it.
Volcanic Halo
Volcanic Wolver Tail
Volcanic Dragon Wings
Fire Aura
So, my FSC weapons will be:
Divine Avenger
Final Flourish
Blitz Needle
Argent Peacemaker
Edit: I also intend to be using a Seraphin Battle Sprite, focusing on Defensive Aura.

Valiance is a nice gun, in terms of ease of use, damage, and knockback. It's a good sidearm.
I don't understand why you'd want to make Leviathan, if you have these other swords. Leviathan excels only in its charge attack. But, if you really want that charge attack, then just wait until you get Fang of Vog. It's the same idea, but much more powerful, and you get it for free, and you already have big fire resistance. You might find my detailed sword guide helpful.
I strongly disagree with your assessment of damage threats. Shadow is dealt by the game's toughest monsters (devilites, greavers, kats). Piercing is dealt by the game's easiest monsters (beasts) and some of its intermediate monsters (slimes).

Then I'll get some Shadow
Then I'll get some Shadow UV's on my armor. But I consider Elemental a far bigger threat than Shadow. And I probably will get Fang of Vog.

Ok, do me a favor and unless you play lockdown, put accessories on something other than wolver line gear. I see everyone doing that. Like they're proud of their wolver gear that they have. "Oh ho, I have everyone's first set of armor." The point of having accessories etcetera is individuality. I mean I know we're the singing, dancing, crap of the world and not unique and special snowflakes of unique specialness, but putting all of the volcanic stuff on vog armor is possibly the least creative endeavor you can go for.
I'm not going to stop you from remaking the angelic wolver dragon of volcanoes that everyone is so fond of, but ask yourself: Do I have a secret wish to date firey holy winged squirrel anubis, or am I just feeling particularly rich and uncreative? WHAT STRANGE ANIMAL AM I TRYING TO REPRESENT???
Also, +1 for valiance.

I don't care too much about
I don't care too much about creativity, as long as everything matches. I don't like wearing certain armors if the helmet/shield don't match it cosmetically. Also, I like fire. I wanna be a walking volcano.
Now then, if I wanted to pick up a 2* Wolver Coat/Cap, with both having Increased Piercing/Shadow Defense Maximum!, how much could I expect to pay for them?

@Fehzor
BUT DIVINE HALOS AND DIVINE VALKYRIE WINGS AND DIVINE EVERYTHING AND CREST OF STORMS MAKES ME FEEL SO PRETTY
@Bog off, you wanker!
Bog off, that's gonna cost you A LOT. I don't really know the market but a moderately wild guess is 700k per piece.

Double max items aren't cheap, thats for sure. Neither are they remotely necessary for playing the game.
And fine, waste the million crown accessories like everyone else ;*(
Thats pretty much the sterotypical swordy loadout alright. You'll want a blitz for FSC, so you can fight the boss without having people get angry at you for not having one.
