My current future loadout:

Chaos set.

Sudaroska
Electron Vortex/Gravity Vortex
Iron Slug

Pretty much a poor-man suda+vortex combo cuz i cant afford trinkets and more weapons expansions. The problems i dont know what gun to use, i was planning to get the iron slug for the interrupts and all-around so what you think about it ?

one of the least-respected guns

Iron Slug is one of the least-respected guns. I don't have it, but I have Callahan. Callahan is fun to use, and pretty effective against fiends and beasts, but its damage output is quite low compared to Blitz Needle. From what I hear and know of Iron Slug, that gun is even less practical.

Is there some reason why you're choosing only normal swords and guns? Why not get an elemental gun, which is disproportionately useful against turrets, which swords are not great at? Consider it.

You might also want to search Google to find Darkbrady's "Highlander" loadout. It's similar to what you're doing. It predates the Chaos buff, so ignore its armor advice and go with Chaos, if you can handle the status penalties.

Thx Bopp for the advice and i really have some elemental guns like prisma to take down turrets and the Volcanic pepperbox in the guide oh boy seems suicidal and fun.

pretty much is all about suda thats why i dont picked a elemental like voltedge.

Well, it kinda depends. Is the gun just as a side arm? If you're going to focus on melee, you may want something like Polaris to help with Turrets. Since you're planning on an Electron Vortex, the Polaris would also help you in Lockdown. Or, if you intend to farm FSC for crowns and Shining Crystals, a Blitz Needle may be more practical than an Iron Slug.

With the new levels promised in the upcoming update, some other guns may be better for end game play, but for now, these are decent.

@Awoogawooga I dislike

@Awoogawooga

I dislike polaris cuz can be really annoying sometimes for mah friends since they like to melee 100% of the time and im only play LD when i REALLY REALLY need a recipe, im more PvE player.

Pretty much im going to give try the volcanic pepper and i have already a blitz and i use it a lot so i think i can handle the charge of the pepper.

okay, but

You don't need to play PvP to get Polaris. You get it from Ironclaw Munitions Factory tokens. But it's okay to dislike Polaris.

I'd recommend Nova Driver or Storm Driver. If you're going to carry a sidearm for utility situations, then it might as well deal enormous damage and be enormously fun. (Landing alchemer ricochets takes some practice, but the resulting damage output is huge.) So maybe just keep upgrading your Prisma.

I would wait with getting any gun until the gun update. We simply don't know how the balance of guns will work until that point.

He meant wait to see what changes there will be to the old guns.
