i see you added me in a lockdown match last week. well if your going in for damage and caps my choices would be my twisted snarby for dmg and my sealed sword to make the enemy go flying of thr capture point (also great heavy sword for sneak attacks!) if you can also the brute jellyhelm gives more peircing defense in LD which really helps but people just go full dusker because of the med dmg bonus. and since the 3 star heart pendants are so pricey it's just better to get 2stars. this is my exact loadout and it helps quite a lot, if im going for pure dmg my snarby has gotten me up to 13k dmg. and capping with my sealed if i just focus mostly on caps i have gotten 11 caps. tis a great choice :D
If you have bothered to look at the damage, you would see that the troikas do more damage than sealed lines at three star, while less than the sealed lines at five star.
I bothered to look at the damage (just updated Grintovec on the wiki a few days ago). The 3* troikas do the same amount of damage as sealed sword.
You might want to read my article on Wolver Clones, which are Lockdown's undeniably most popular loadout.

Basically, my suggestions are get trinkets, get a weapon slot (for convenience), and practice a ton.
sealed and Troika do identical damage in 3* variations, but sealed is a smidgen faster.
Twisted Snarble Barb is identicle to Swift Flourish aside from the charge attack.
The loadout that you are suggesting is very good, but it isn't good if you want to have fun. Being a clone takes away the fun in lockdown. (Slash! Zoom! Ouch! Slash! Zoom! Slash! Kill! Capture! Slash! Ouch! Zoom!) If you want to have more fun, consider being a gunner with gunslinger armor, wieding some alchemers or a pulsar for backup. This isn't the best way to play lockdown alone, because you can't really kill people, just annoy them. Bombing is also fun, but if a striker with a pulsar comes, chances are that you aren't going to capture that point with a struggle. My personal favorite is a hipster loadout: Chroma Helm, Brute Jelly Mail, Tempered Honor Blade, and Kamarin using a striker. Kamikaze in the opposing point and let lease your Honor charge or Kamarin charge. You'll get lots of people yelling "Beeping fat chroma jelly" at you.*
*this method appears to have little affect against hammers. BE WARNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Brap.
Tier 2 LD loadout
Hammer
Flamberge
Full dusker
2 heart trinkets
then i got rid on my flamberge and used a sealed sword, now i have nightblade
Basically a hammer or flamberge strikes at the weaknesses though night blade is another good option for hitting weaknesses.
To those who don't have a hammer, there is a alot of skill that goes into using one effectively otherwise you'll dash no where important or miss opportunities to deal great damage. I once have a pure hammer fight with someone, took no damage and killed them. most people are predictable with them so they are easy to dodge.
but long story short, learn how other people play and strike their crippling weakness.
I go
Helm-cobalt or jelly
Armour-dusker
Weapons-kamarin and swift flourish. Or Shockburst brandish and kamarin. Or shockburst and swift. Or swift and antigua. Or kamarin and blaster. Or shockburst and antigua.j
Trinks-N/A
Yeah that's a typical clone loadout. You should do fine. Heart trinkets will help though.
