You are lucky with the UVs.

FF ASI high, this is something you bring to LD to shred skolver clones, definately a must have.

GF slime low, really pointless as your GF's DPS is already insane as it is.

Swift flourish, Gremlin med, it would be alot better if your GF and swift flourish can trade UVs.

Voltedge CTR low<-nice but could be better, vs undead low is not really useful, gremlin med is pointless.

Acheron beast med, good, but why use acheron against beast when you have FF?

Polaris ASI low, good, now you just need some ASI boost by wearing kay eye cowl or nameless set, the ASI will begin to make a difference after high.

Electron charge CTR med, good, after making it into a vortex(5*), heat it to lvl5 and you will have high CTR despite the radiant drought.

3 UV skolver coat is good, the med shock and poison can work well with other gears such as the dragon scale helm or the divine viel.

Jelly king crown low fire resist, I really discourage anyone from using the crown due to it has a status resist that is useless in the game (sleep), but since you already make it to its 5* form, you might as well do with what you have. You should considering making some elemental and shadow gear by now.

Cyclops hat freeeze resist med, only useful in T1, don't bring this to anywhere else.

Some recommendations:

-Dragon scale helm, combine this with your 3 UV skolver coat, you got your self a set that is ready to bust down Herex's compoun42. That is if you want to be a completionist like me and do all the DMs. Even if you don't want to do C42, the helmet will still be useful as it greatly improves your knight's fire and poison resist + med beast bonus, making your FF just a little bit more deadly.

-Volcanic demo suit, sick of getting set on fire? Then this suit is what you need, reducing the charge time of your bomb by a CTR med and allows you to charge the vortex bombs more.

-Since you are really sorted in your swords, try to get a gun or two, guns like valiance and antigua line will be good in LD if nooblaris isn't your thing. Blitz needle should be essential in a FSC build as well.

Final Flourish, Electron Charge

Your Final Flourish ASI+3 and your Electron Charge CTR+2 are great. The shock UV on your Skolver Coat is also good. Your other UVs are not bad, but I would re-roll the UVs on the items that you use most, when you get the chance.

@Midnight-Dj
If I'm not mistaken, the Acheron does more damage to beasts than the FF. The Beast VH would come in handy if you're not wearing damage-boosting armor/trinkets.

But do keep in mind that FF swings much faster than Acheron, and it is much more suitable for beast since they are so mobile, acheron is designed to fight jellies and gremlin, two slower race compared to the beasts. However, if you are a first time player and don't have a lot of OoA at your disposal, acheron will do just fine in wolver den and any beast levels.

Acheron would be a butt vs Jellies if it was not for the insane damage. GF simply outclasses it in terms of control. So no, it's not designed for Jellies.
Either way, Acheron is perfectly fine vs Beasts. The speed difference is pretty small, FF is not "much faster". The charge of Acheron, unlike BTB and FF, will actually be useful. No beasts are awfully mobile unless they're idle, which they aren't when you're around. Wolvers might have their teleport ability but it's not like FF will hit them if they teleport away. Provided your aim is true, Acheron will have roughly the same reach as FF either way so it doesn't necessarily matter if a wolver teleports away but is still close enough to be hit by FF.

FF's biggest advantage is the width of the strike, really. It's super useful as Wolvers enjoy piling up.

agree

Krakob's post raises a number of important points. There is more to weapons than just damage per second against a single target that is standing directly in front of you.
