From everything I've read Blitz Needle is one of the best guns in the game, right next to Polaris and Drivers without cheating. (With cheating by spamming weapon switch, twin Alchemers outdamage every other weapon in the game.)

Same deal with armor, get Wolver or Chaos because dodging is easy enough that defense doesn't matter.

All of the needle weapons are very bad. Why? Because firing the gun roots you to the ground, as well as prevents you from changing the firing direction. Mobility is everything when gunning, and using a needle gun takes it away entirely.

Except that:
1. Most of what you'd care to use it on (everything in the Beast Family, Kats and Zombies, maybe weak Devilites too since they've been nerfed a bunch) is slow and stupid enough to leave openings where you can attack them with relative safety. And if you can't find an opening, you can make one with a freeze bomb.
2. Not being able to change your facing doesn't matter much when you can just jam it up your enemies' butts to make sure that all the bullets hit. (This is quite similar to the Super Shotgun, which is also disgustingly overpowered because it's way too easy to make most of the bullets hit.)

Why hasn't anyone streamed a session of this game yet? Smashbro was kinda going to, but his stream is just too good.

I got a saucy Undead Mid on my Faust, which goes very stylishly with its Construct Mid. 2 Variant Ticket well spent.

I just bought 11 Eternal Orbs of Alchemy for around 15k Crowns off the Auction House. I can't help but feel that I've done something similar to wiring money overseas to a Nigerian Prince.

Good deal on the orbs, though I have no idea why you need to buy orbs in the first place when they drop so commonly on elite difficulty...

FSC is pretty great.

8-9k per run.

Hope you have fire resistance.

I just spent half an hour on a Normal RJP token run because of bugs. Hyperion was nice, though.

I wish! I usually find one orb every 10-15 runs if I'm really dedicated.

I really need to get back into this
Only my armor and shield need leveling before I can upgrade them to five star, and the only reason I can't already do that is because fire crystals are painful.

Saint's Row IV is eating my time, right now.  Game's probably the strangest out of them all.

Shining fire crystals are fairly easy to get, I don't see the problem.

They are, and getting 20-30 a run isn't too difficult unless you get some of the stupid compounds
Speaking of the compounds AFDALSKGLSG I HATE THE COMPOUNDS
The problem is, just to level up the both of them, I need 138 shining fire crystals.

That is why you do normal clockwork runs. danger rooms/arenas= more boxes/orbs/crystals

Those orbs were nice, but now I'm going to need upwards of, what, 1000 Shining Fire Crystals?
