Buck has requested that other forums not be advertised here. I agree, the best suggestion is to email that material.

Very unfair! Of course, I don't mind since I already knew them. So I can't even PM Vicsun for the URL?

Elswhere it is okay but not here. Honestly, people are posting things like go to this and that forum or a direct link to see a response to his question. Of course, they are all linked to one another. It's the community of Arcanum we are building up here. If you or Buck won't let us post the URL of the other forums here, why should we even try and redirect them here? I was looking forward to promote this site at the other board by posting my tips here and then had them to go here instead.

@Al - You can PM me the link, as long as you don't post it (since posting = promoting...). At least that's what fable said.

Question

How do I PM you? Can't find the link at your username. Yes, I know, I'm a newbie here.

The icon above my message. Right next to "quote" and "edit".
Maybe this link would PM me...

Well since nobody else seems to want to answer the question, I guess I will. First off the repeater rifle uses two bullets every time you fire it, adding up to 6 bullets a round while the repeater rifle only uses 1 bullet a shot. Secondly the looking glass rifle has a much longer range allowing you to take out enemies from a safe distance. If you don't care about how many bullets you use try getting the automated rifle (i think thats what its called) it fires 8 times a round and uses 6 bullets a pop for a whopping 48 bullets a round.

48 bullets = 60-70 gold (from saltpeters) a round. lets say that every encounter takes an average of 2 rounds to finish. After a single cave (20 encounters) you would be at 2600 gold spent on just ammo. Ouch...

As for repeater vs. looking glass rifles, I suggest waiting for the elephant gun. It will blow both away at 2 bullets a round. You can fire it 2 or 3 times a round.

Is the elephant gun better than the pyro-gun?
The pyro gun makes same damage as looking glass + 5-20 Fire damage and it has speed of 10. How much damage does the elephant gun make?
It was quite difficult to make it (first i needed marksmen rifle + looking glass, then a gun chassis to make a long range pistol, and then finally magnesium to make it a pyro gun), it would be a waste if the elephant gun is bettter .
