Hi all,
I am not an active poster of the forum, but more of a reader instead. This is my first thread and I decided to do a little bit research on the current best weapons one can get for cash, respect, and from PvE drops.
Ideally whenever I get to the end game I will have these equipping henchman #499, and my goal to compile this list was to figure how much should I go deep into the LTQ event to start to get weapons that will mater in the long term. Drop rates are calculated with respect to best drop per xp earned. I included the boss prizes of the last 4 maps (difficult to farm) and also the best common farmable items.
I got the info from either White Frogs's spreadsheet or MXZ's. Link here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...ZWmF3eWc#gid=8. Cash explosives from somewhere else. It would be great if more experienced players could confirm these for me.

My thoughts about this are:
- boss event common items, except explosives, are generally not that good and will be replaced by items from all around the table
- second prize of LTQ was a deadly shuriken, 3rd prize a siege launcher, after those, items would beat these
- farmable items suck, with an exception made to Japanese Fireworks (non-consumable and rp explosives too expensive) and maybe the TLCs (just because non-consumable)
- cash M1A1 clearly better than RP cruiser and all farmable cars (single item that covers att and def)
- Assassin's coat better armor of all (even better than japan's town boss farmable prize), clearly the best investment of RP
- RP Clean End, best melee attack and defense (2nd best RP investment)
- RP Pinpoint sniper is the best gun, but only slightly when compared to cash options.
Please discuss. Thanks
