I'm kinda goin' for the whole swordie thing, but since I'm using a Chaos set now, I don't exactly need to. I do also have a Vog Cub set that I can use though.
Helm: Chaos Cowl
Armor: Chaos Cloak
Sword: Acheron
Sword: Combuster
Sword: Barbarous Thorn Blade
I'm considering an elemental gun since turrets are annoying as hell, but I'm not sure which would be the best to go for. Any opinions on this anyone?
Chaos works for flipping any weapon because its just so strong. Except maybe the asi dependent weapons like antiguas, flourishes, and cutters, although I hear people enjoy using cutter charges.
For a sidearm and not main damage, a polaris is great for turrets and situations when you need that ez-mode because things got too hard to handle. Argent peacemaker is good as well, though a polaris will suit the sidearm role better.
Get a Blitz, and some guns. I guess Alchemers, although you could also get a Polaris or something and bam, you've got the most op and generic swordsman loadout in the game.
We have sprites now. Either spam firebolt with drakon or shadow cloack with maskeraith
If you want a gun for turrets, get a Polaris because it interrupts them too and deals elemental damage. You can get an Argent Peacemaker because it shoots 6 bullets and probably have more DPS (I doubt it though). You can use alchemers besides the shadow one. Alchemers are not really supposed to be a side arm, its mostly for gunslingers who can use it to deal massive damage with the charge or utilize the bounce mechanic of alchemers bullets.
