Hey, Pyrosparker! I have a quick question. What key binds do you use for switching between your four weapons? I've always been only used to switching between two weapons, which is why I'm thinking about going up to using three or four for more mobility in missions. I only use when switching between weapons as I find it easy for quick-switching.

The way I switch requires at least 2 thumb buttons on a mouse, which thankfully is rather common as 'page up'/'page down' on all but super-basic mice. Those thumb buttons are wep1/wep2 while space is wep3 (as an off-weapon), which allows me to switch between my first two weapons. RMB is my "modifier" control, which when held will change the respective controls to wep3/wep4/wep2, allowing me to switch the other two weapons.

Honestly, even if you give that tip about compounds, the real issue vanguards (and pretty much everyone else) has with compounds is due to the ammount of enemies those levels have. And not to mention the awful lag spikes this game is infamous for. If you get a lag spike, you will get surrounded by enemies and once you realize what's going on, you are suddenly on the floor, with enemies walking away from your dead body. Another thing is that compounds are not really that good of a source for farming or getting many item boxes. Is just annoying through and through. Thank god for Phantoms and their invisibility skill.

The amount of enemies is high, but in return their health is low - any weapon with a large attack area generally makes the swarms quite easy. The charge attack of any brandish-line sword makes quick work of swarms, and they are quite easy to craft as far as gear goes. Lag spikes can and will get you killed anywhere, *sometimes*. But in the case of compounds, offense can be the safest strategy; simply avoiding and walking through lets them pile up, and the ones you've just walked past are now ready to block you from heading back out if you need to. They can't surround you if you deal with them as you go.

@@Pyrosparker Like i said, the issue is not really the enemies, but the lag spikes. Last time i was in a party, 2 them got killed because of a lag spike that pretty much made them die twice. One of them was even using a full normal/piercing gear just to avoid getting mauled by wolvers and those little critters. We got far and we reached the end, then we ragequited because guess what, there was yet another compound in rotation, and after that, another one, true, we could wait for the second compound to change into another type of level, but the third one was only compounds. So yeah, that wasn't really fun.

any suggestions and best gears for sk?

For first weapons to craft I always suggest Combuster, Blitz Needle, Acheron and Arcana - in order of importance. For Helm and Armor, the Chaos set is great for high damage output. For shield, the Swiftstrike Buckler is great because it adds 'Attack Speed Increased: High' to all weapons. The Chaos Set and Swiftstrike Buckler are good everywhere, Combuster and Blitz Needle will make Vana running much quicker/easier, and Acheron + Arcana help on other levels where shadow damage and/or a good quick handgun are needed. A nice thing about this selection as well is that everything listed except Arcana can be crafted without having to recipe hunt; the recipes can be found in the Hall of Heroes.
