Hey guys,
just got a uv high damage against slimes on my sealed sword. Should i turn it into an avenger or faust? If i turn it into a faust, it will be very powerful against slimes right? But if I turn it into avenger it will be decent against slimes, which is why faust is used in the first place, but the added bonus damage against the other classes (constructs etc). Another question, does anyone buy a normal faust unbound?

The description on the Blazebrand says it has a good chance of causing strong fire.
The wiki list of swords lists this under Abilities, and lists Fire under Possible Effect.
The wiki page for the Blazebrand only mentions the chance of causing fire under the charged attack.

I had assumed that the basic attacks had a chance to cause fire and the charged attack had a chance to cause fire.

However, based on my experience, I've never seen a non-charged attack from a Brandish branch cause any status ailment.

should i choose to be a pure bomber or swordsman?

if i become a bomber, i will use mad bomber suit, a shivermist, nitrome, ash of agini and something else. suggest one :D

if i become a swordsman, i will use vog, leviathian, divine avenger, gran faust, and maybe something else like glacius?

thanks

(sorry for the bad grammer, i'm doing this on my ipod.)

I have an idea for a set which includes having a shadow sword that is good against slime and gremlins and normal agianst constuct and beast. This leads to fiends and undead who are strong agianst shadow but i will have shadow helm and armour to protect from there attacks and with an added owlight shield for added elemental protection.The only weakness for this set i can see is agianst beasts.

I would appreciate the feedback, thanks.

I've spent a bit too long making money on this game and have yet to go to fsc and beat vanaduke.

This will probably the set and weapons I will bring:

Nameless Hat
Nameless Poncho
Wise Owlite Shield

Cryo Driver (the only weapon I ever need)
Blackhawk (deals anything my cryo doesnt)
Ascended Calibur (so reliable)

I'm a gunslinger, so really I don't. But I got a faust and vile striker for jelly king, I don't mind getting an avenger if it would help me at fsc. I have a spare weapon slot anyways and my I don't think the rest of my collection of guns will help me on the journey.

Has anyone tried the Cutter Series with Swiftstrike Buckler? Sounds pretty neat (at least in my head) :)

I have a Crest of Almire, and I was wondering how the Fire/Shock resistances work on it exactly. I tried bringing the shield up when I was on fire, it didn't reduce the damage or the time I was afflicted by it, and Shock damage is nullified with a shield anyway. Friends of mine with the Grey Owlite Shield see the same thing.

Are shield resistances useless, or only applied when your shield is broken, or what?

So, I'm thinking about rolling for single UVs for my arsenal contents. That, and I'm considering outright purchases of "stuff" with UVs at the AH. Is there a previous forum post that I can link to that will list the rule of thumb for recognizing desirable UVs? My apologies in advance if the question is too vague, but my prior perusing of forum posts leads me to believe that it's a tough crowd out there and you folks like it straight and to the point without becoming TL/DR. Carry on!

Is it the...
Nitrome,
Big Angry Bomb,
Graviton.
I wanna know which one i should upgrade it to

imaging, you (or a friend) using two pistols or even two, dagger-like swords in the levels. i was thinking this when i saw the aegis shield (i think its the Aegis...) it has two small daggers hiding behind the shield. but wouldn't that sound cool to see this idea in the game, and the charge is a spin like the caliburs do when charge. what do you guys think? what other dual-wields you guys think would sound cool.
