for leveling i used a simple dx2... acid seems to be the premier damage type for leveling... dont need anything special for leveing really and not worth wasting money on an uber one for grinding as the condition would be next to nothing by the time you are done... the cheapest and most commonly available "uber" guns are fwg5s... they were the premier guns for a awhile so weaponsmiths invested a lot into them back in the day and made TONS of them... i bought a 380 max damage for like 500k or something... but the best guns nowadays for pvp or pve are geos and de-10s.. but these are expensive for good ones. de-10s are good cause of armor piercing and the high damage, they seem semi common in the 250-350 damage range and go for about 2-3mil int hat damage range.. the more uber ones 400-500 go for 6-10mil or sometimes even 15mil. and the same applys to geos... you can get a none krayt non sliced geo (230-260 damage) for about 200k-300k and then 330-380 damage for for 3-5mil and the more uber ones 400+ go from 10-15mil.... examples of whati have


dx2 1.1 speed 340 damage armor peircing 1 acid damage- i payed 2mil for (more expensive because they take 5 krayt tissues to make)

fwg5 1.0 speed 380 damage heat damage- 500k

de-10 x2 420 max damage armor piercing one energy - 6mil each

geo blaster 440 max damage armor peircing 0 stun damage- 15mil


so if you are looking to spend LOTS of money go for a geo or de-10 krayted if not wanting to spend that much money go for fwg5s cheap and common



meh

personally I enjoyed the fwg5 pistol through almost all of pistoleer.. the ones I had weren't great, but they did the job. I had 2, 1 for speed (lower levels) and one for damage (when you get your speed up through skills)

the speed one was I think 1.2 speed, 176 max dmg (heat), the damage one was 2.2 speed, about 210 max. But then my main levelling area was the squill caves on tat.

I think jantas or mokks (not sure which) are vulnerable to heat too, so it can be a good gun selection.. and they're dirt cheap.

If you're looking for a longer term gun, you really can't go wrong with a geo pistol (300+ damage, cert comes in pistoleer 0020).. also the acid pistol (dx2?) is a good choice if you can get one with a nice slice.. in my (limited) experience, most things are vulnerable to acid (tuskens, rancors) or heat (squill, one of janta or mokk, hurton (I think)).

the dx2 has a nice tight damage range too, and usually good range mods.. handy gun.
