Leviathan Blade , Grey Owlite, or Dread Skelly?

Also, what weapon/armor should I aim for next? I do vana mostly, maybe in the future I would do shadow lairs

My gear right now is: Vog Cub Coat, sinister skelly mask, ascended calibur, wise owlite shield, and Argent Peacemaker

the things I should be aiming for... that I know:Blitz, Crest of almire, shivermist buster.

Suggest on what I should be aiming next!!

Have a Good Day

not Leviathan Blade

Leviathan Blade is okay in all situations, but because it's normal it's not ideal for any situation. If you do a lot of Vanaduke, then you will soon have Fang of Vog, which is much more powerful. So don't get Levi. Work on a piercing sword, elemental sword, and shadow sword. My detailed sword guide might help.

Blitz Needle is a very powerful weapon, that everyone should have. Shivermist Buster is very useful in certain situations, including Vanaduke, some danger missions, and Shadow Gloaming Wildwoods (SGWW). But if you're already doing a lot of Vanaduke, then maybe you don't need it urgently? Consider Voltaic Tempest if you want a crowd-control bomb; it's a little more broadly useful. Also consider vortex bombs.

In armor/helmet/shield, we can't really advise you, without knowing what monsters are giving you problems. Crest of Almire and Grey Owlite Shield are two of the best defensive shields. You'll probably want to have both eventually. Do you find yourself getting hurt by fiends and undead a lot? Then upgrade the Skelly helmet. It could be useful in SGWW. For SGWW you might want some piercing armor, such as Skolver.

So in short your top priorities could be Grey Owlite Shield, Blitz Needle, and some good swords.

@bopp

well.. I'm aiming for the FoV since I started vana, I guess I would sell my Ascended calibur and use the argent for basically everything in vana? :P I dunno.. I'm currently really poor :P

hard to do trojans with AP?

Well, if you've been doing FSC a lot, then you don't need me to tell you what works for you. But killing trojans with just AP might be pretty slow. In FSC, I usually bring an elemental sword (Combuster, DA, WRH, etc.) as my main killing weapon. If I'm in a group, then I bring Blitz Needle to kill trojans and Vanaduke. If I'm solo, then I bring Final Flourish or Barbarous Thorn Blade to kill trojans, and one of various guns to kill Vanaduke. If I'm in a group, I sometimes bring Shivermist Buster, if they want it. I tell you this, just to give you some idea of the kinds of weapons that you might want to slowly collect.

I don't know the market for unbound items, because I would never buy an unbound item myself, and I assume (incorrectly) that everyone thinks like me. But you should keep your Ascended Calibur at least until you can evaluate Fang of Vog. Get Blitz Needle. Improve your armor, or get Shivermist Buster, if you feel that you need more defense or crowd control.

Be patient in your acquisition of items. Save up crowns and try to buy CE when it's cheap (like during special events). This is the slow part of the game. It's supposed to be slow.
