out of the starting weapons i can use, is LP the best to get to start my way on HW exp?

Get a good flamethower. then get the full flame tree. then acid. then heavy weapons, while getting field tactics at the same time. because if you have flame you have it all, and all the 3 main trees are heavy wep XP so you can earn acid rifle tree with flame and such

I would use the LP unless you are facing somthing that is weak to flame. It has the best range mods of any pistol in the game. Get comfortable with it and the specials you already have; bleed, suppressive fire and warning shot. And don't lose sight of them once you get your flame thrower. In spite of what the guide says (it is excellent never the less) the FT is not that bad after you get the first box. Just be sure and use aim when using the FT specials.

Use the launcher pistol (get novice pistoleer) and stack health bleeds while kiting slow moving mobs. Do this until you get flame 2 or 3. Then you can switch over to the FT. Just be prepared to miss a LOT before flame 3.
