My story weapon, I don't use it much in Together mode.
Pandora Claws
Value: 305
Ranged: 1.5/6
Melee: 1.5/6
Overall Defense +8
Speed +4
Forward Dash ch. Shot +4
Standing ch. Shot -1
This weapon is for surviving those 9.0 runs. With the defense +8 all attacks do half damage, which helps a lot. Finished chapters 1-9 on 9.0 with this weapon so far.

More randomcrap nobody cares about!!! 1. It's stated that Palms use Pit's life force for energy when equipped. Having a tatoo of Viridi that saps your life force...I'm sure Pit's happy about that.  2. My favorite weapon class are Palms. Just saying. 3. I made this bada-- weapon. Lancer Staff Value: 300 Ranged: 3 Melee: 1.5 Overall Defense +1 Weakening +3 Shot Range +2 Shot Homing +1 Walking Speed +3 Forward Dash ch. Shot +4 One thing I like about Lancer staff is it's damage increases at CLOSER range. I got 10 kills in a LvD match with this without dying once. |

I'll care... In a week. I've been looking up some stuff on the game, but I don't really want to research much more now, so it doesn't end up like Brawl's Smash Dojo, where it felt like I already played the whole game as soon as I started.
From general information, I think my favorite will be Bows, for the same reason Pit (and [irrelevantly] Link) was my main on Brawl. I love 'switcher' weapons, such as Pit's dual blade bow. It also seems a bit versatile.
I know I'm going to use everything a lot, but along with Bows, I'm most fond of Mecha Arms (some look really cool and have cool effects. Also Drill Arm) and Blades (because Gunblade, and their versatility).
Of course, I'm just gonna be playing through the story with whatever crappy weapons I can glue together, at first. From what I've seen, the story dialogue is really well written and funny... Full of references, and... Cheesily funny.
"Remember when you used to say 'I'm finished' all the time?"
"I still say that... A lot." (Brawl reference!)
"Palutena, are you still speaking English right now?"
"Let me make this easier for you... BIG MONSTERS KILL PIT GRRRR"
"Agh, I see what you mean!"

1st one is a Kid Icarus reference still, though there are SEVERAL nods to the smash series.
Also, Arms are good. Especially Taurus's Melee Combo and Upperdash's Dash attack.
Blades are decent.
Bows are great. I HIGHLY recommend an Aurum Bow or Hawkeye Bow.
I generally prefer Palms, Clubs, Staves and Bows.
Cannons are difficult to use. Very difficult. Low range, bad melee, Slow shots...Doom Cannon's shots are good though due to their huge blast radius, and Rail's are fast.

I kinda liked the effects of Divine Bow and Phosphora Bow... But I have no idea how effective anything really is when actually playing. Also, what's the Somewhat Staff like? Seems kinda interesting. And Zodiac Weapons are preset, so you can't fuse to change their stats, right?

Don't know where you heard that. However, to use a Zodiac weapon/power, you have to find the zodiac chambers first. The Zodiac chambers are in every even numbered chapter except chapter 22, whose chamber is in chapter 23. |

Wow, I haven't gotten a chance to play this game in ages, what with constant new distractions popping up.
My two main weapons are a +4 Dash Attack Upperdash Arm with can OHKO unboosted against non-Angels and a Sagittarius Bow that I use with Energy Charge. The horrifying things that Bow can do... *shudders*

^Makes me think of the Range+3homing+2SCS+4 Angel Bow I'm so close to making.
Bows are evil little things.
New weapon, this one just from spotpass! Pretty good for a random.
Magnus Club
Melee 4.5
Melee Combo +3
Health +4

Just completed Chapter 11, taking my time with the game. It's pretty amazing... Been doing everything on 6.0, redid a few on 7.0, and Chapter 1 on 9.0. Well, I've barely played online, but I got a few nice weapons and powers (Sky Jump Lv.4 and Angelic Missile Lv.3) , from my first match ever I got a cannon that had tons of Ranged stars only. I was able to fuse this with what little I have using it:
Lancer Staff: Value 255
6 Ranged Stars, 0 Melee
Knockback defense+1
Speed +4
In-peril attack boost +1
Yeah, the attributes are pretty random, although I think the Speed +4 is decent. Still, glad I got something with 6 stars this early. Does like 210 with a forward dash charge shot, kinda crazy for the lowish value... By the way, I can't find a list of maximums and minimums (negative) for attributes. I think 4 is the cap for most, and I know Overall Defense caps at 8...
I actually like Staffs more than I thought, but they're kinda boring. I haven't had much experience with bows, but I liked the Silver Bow a lot, as well as the one you use in the Medusa chapter.
I have this strange attachment to Cutter Palm besides only having crappy ones. It just feels cool and comfy to use. I also like Crusher Palm a lot, and Drill Arm was cool but kinda lame despite having a pretty good one with nice stars and decentish attributes. Or maybe that's just because I used it right after my Lancer Staff of 180+ damage. And lastly, I used Artillery Claws last on Ch. 11, and they were really fun. So was my Running Speed +4 Needle Palm.
Well, I'm still in the process of collecting and using everything I get, so I don't have a main weapon yet.

I got this from a weapon gem.
Magnus Club
Value: 225
Melee:4.5/6
Health +4
Melee Combo +3
In-Peril Autododge +1
I'd have loved it to have Speed boosts, but Magnus club is faster than any club anyway, so it's ok.

Are weapon gems through spotpass random for everyone? I missed yesterday's, but I got an Electroshock Arm today. I also have a '?' gem from two days ago, wonder what it'll be... I really should get to unlocking everything, but the story is just so awesome and funny that I'm prolonging it big-time. I know it's going to be like one of those animes that you get sad when it's over...
Oh, earlier I made an Optical Blade, I forget the weapons and attributes used for it, but one had no stars, and one had half a melee star. The result was a 4.5 melee star Optical Blade with Poison+2 Item Attack+2. 4 stars out of nowhere...?
Well, I like Ninja Palm a lot. It's a bit like a faster Cutter Palm, with a cool defensive backdash charge shot. Plus, ninjas. Kunai and shurikens everywhere. What's not to like?
I think this is my most multiplayer-competitive weapon at the moment:
Darkness Bow 4R 0M: 228 Value
Shot Homing +2
Running Speed +4
Full-health boost +2
A decently low value, with some shot homing, and 2 attributes that help survive.
I also like this weapon a lot, but the value is way too high for it being so basic and having non-maxed stats:
Sagittarius Bow 6R 0M: 260 Value
Overall Defense +3
Speed +2

Just opened that weapon gem, so I have the club.

Tomorrow then, maybe? Since it's like 3AM for Al now (right?)
And I guess I'll see if I get the same club later on when I unlock it.

Sure, I might do pretty bad though, I only played online with this richboy I know who got the game just because I got it and it has online play and then got rid of the game two days later. But he was more of an online training dummy, so I have no real experience with fighting against players that will melee and actually dodge and shoot back threateningly.
Also, why no powers? I agree some of them are a bit absurd (we could just ban a few, like invisible shots and bumblebee), but I think they also add a bit more strategy. Though I only really use Sky Jump or Angelic Rocket, to jump over cover or for (funny) fast travel. I also use Mega Laser as a wall or smokescreen of sorts.
Anyway, to answer your question in that other thread, my FC is:
0146 - 8714 - 8870
Guess I'll post it in the FC thread later... Actually Al will see these later/tomorrow so never mind.

I just like no powers, but you can use sky jump if you want.

Brb, fusing to get a ranged weapon. Magnus Club in a no item, no powers 1v1, is a bad idea.
Also, that Saggitarius bow is better than your dark bow. Use it.

Well, items just break the game with overpoweredness and luck. I'm not too fond of some of the overly good powers, but I think it adds a little more than just run and gun.
I just checked the shop, and there's this for 63500 hearts:
Ninja Palm 5R 3M: 296 Value
Shaking +1
Speed +2
Stamina +2
Evasion +3
Dash cont. fire+1
Health-1
It'll cost half of my earnings, but this is good right? It seems to compliment the speed of the weapon, with more speed, stamina, and evasion. Shaking is a small plus, and the dash cont. fire gets a little buff, and it's one of the better parts of the weapon. And it's just under 300 value, which I believe is perfect for LvD. Seems pretty great especially for a shop weapon.
Also good games so far. I did like Sagittarius bow since before I started playing, but I think my Darkness bow has better perks, although a bit less powerful.
