Hello there forumers, been a long time since Ive needed help here.

Anyway, I need a gun to accompany me for LD. It will be able to interupt/ stop bombers or help me when Im running away.

I am torn between getting a sentenza or a valiance.

I also have a volt driver and prisma driver for a gunner set but feel they shoot too slowly for a sidearm.

My question is:

Which weapon should I get that would both complement my Gunner set of 2 drivers as well as be useful for a swordie sidearm?

I eventually plan on getting both but which first? (I have enough CE to make one or the other straight away).

Thanks in advance.

Have Giggawatt

Don't want to be accused of pulsar spam and would rather not TBH.

I feel you shouldn't be able to be an offensive asset whilst being able to single handedly hold a point.

By the way, wanted a gun that shoots FASTER than an alchemer.

People whining should never

People whining should never stop you doing what you want to do. If you don't want to anyways, fine, but don't let their tantrums put you off doing anything.

Shy of the god-mode gun, Valiance is probably your best bet. Sent shoots too fast and triggers invinci frames; not great for overall damage unless you just buttonmash like mental. It's good for catching recons mind you, but it's a fairly limited upside compared to Valiance which can quite easily kill as well as shoot fast. Better damage than many would give it credit for, especially at the sheer rate that thing unloads bullets.

Im sorta like Bzzts

I own a giggawatt yet i dont like bring it to LD. unlike most ppl, i try not to be a --bag to other players' gameplay.
I sometimes bring a sentenza or a peacemaker, shoot it off, other guy gets a little scared, trys to stay away, and i make a bee line to my locker room! xD buts it more like a distraction that anything else.
both are strong against Skolvers so yea, you can shoot the Senty blindy and their gonna back off a little until they figure it out. By that time your off and sprinting.

Personally, I think triple-max Skolvers that can tank better than your teams Guardian (or any regular tanking set in the game) in the game is a lot worse than any polaris, but you don't hear people complainin' about how dirty that is, do you? People will do whatever they can to win, and when they're defeated by an OP weapon, they'll whine and throw tantrums and try to shame you into not using it so they can kill you easier. Which is, also, dirtier than the use of a weapon.

@bzzts

- Volt-->Storm driver is more useful as a team gun - shock lets your teammates kill someone faster instead of being like say, Argent Peacemaker, triggering invincibility forever. As for bombers, this is good for interrupting their charges, and Umbra (shadow damage) is a counterpick for damage because bomber armor is Elemental.

- If you're running away or for general swordy side-arm use, Hail driver's freeze status is oh-so-useful.

Recently, I've actually been feeling that I shoot too fast with alchemers. Deliberate aiming is more valuable than untargeted speed.

That said, you don't seem to want another driver, so you're probably more in line with going the pulsar route with the rest of the kiddies, or Valiance if you're a little more adventurous.

An odd set, but it worked for me.

I'm an autogun striker, which is very difficult to use, let alone master. However, I love to make use of the poison effect + the cone shape for one particular line. Pair that with another high-damage weapon, and you can rip defenders and recons apart.

Ok thanks for the replies

So after some thinking, Ill probably get a valiance.

I'll use the storm driver for now and use valiance for my gunner loadout .

Thanks all.
