Wait, why do you have this?

Well... I haven't played T1 lockdown that much, so I can't really say. But, I have a very quick charge time on the Cold Snap, making it effective in defending bases and overall being annoying. The hammer is effective for maneuvering, and chunking away health. Though, from what little I have played, you just mash the attack button and hope the other player dies first. As such, virtually not much skill is required. I do have quite a bit of fun running around and spamming my Cold Snap, though. Cold Snap works wonders in roadblocking other players, and if they get frozen, there is ample opportunity to beat on them. I find Tier 1 is the only tier in which a guardian can easily overpower an entire team. The health regeneration is absolutely broken.

Generic Set:

• Striker Booster
• Dusker Cap
• Dusker Coat
• Swift Flourish
• Kilowatt Pulsar
• Shockburst Brandish
• Arc Razor
• Tri-Heart Pendant (x2)

Wait, why do you have this? As much as I dislike abiding by any sort of meta, I have found that sometimes it's necessary for me to swallow my pride and carry my team. So here's your basic generic set, but not really. Instead of opting in for a Sealed sword like everybody and their mother, I prefer the speeed of an Arc Razor. The Arc Razor hard counters any slow sword with it's sheer speed and it's erratic swing pattern. I love my Arc Razor. Otherwise, I use my ASI VH Shockburst to whittle someone down, or I juggle someone around with the Flourish.

Recon Set

• Recon Cloak
• Blazebreak Helm
• Dusker Coat
• Shockburst Brandish
• Voltech Alchemer Mk II
• Swift Flourish
• Lightning Capacitor.
• Tri-Heart Pendant (x2)

What about this junk?

Being a fast piercing weapon, a toothpick is a pretty basic choice to bring in, and it counters out the recon's slowed down sword attacks. Not to mention, it makes the kills so much quicker and satisfying once the foe's defense is nerfed. Even without a defense nerf, a few strikes from the TSB can bring down foes easily. I typically try to cripple strikers with a shot from my Voltech Alchemer, but Kilowatt Pulsar is a good alternative for creating a distraction to lure enemies away from a base, or stop a bomber from charging his bomb. Shock is also a good status to inflict upon others, as it gives you ample opportunity to strike while they're spasming, and it dishes out extra damage. I have found that Shock removes invincibility frames, making a Striker with ASI an effective health-bar-melting tool. The Dusker Cap and Coat are pretty standard, being some of the best armor you can possibly wear. I wear a Blazebreak helm because it's functional and stylish. Sun Shards are an example of an amazing, yet underused bomb in Lockdown. Not only do they deal Elemental and Piercing, two important damage types, it has multiple purposes. Picking off foes from afar, breaking a recon's cloak, supporting teammates attacking someone, etc. THIS IS OBSOLETE AS THE SUN SHARDS SUCK NOW.

Hammer time!

• Stable Rocket Hammer

What the--?!

At times, I will switch in the Stable Rocket Hammer, when I feel the need to whip out my new toys. I tend to go either guardian or striker while wielding the Hammer. Why do I use the Hammer? Well, it's a "slow" sword that hits three times, has a unique dash that can deal damage, and it encourages everyone to be as varied in their gear as possible. One by one, the Duskers all fall! Dark Reprisal is also a good area-of-denial bomb, despite the damage being unnecessarily nerfed to the Core and back. I find that if combined with a Shock bomber, the Dark Reprisal will be pretty dang effective. It also has a short charge time, making it easy to spam and fill up a base with little purple orbs.

Hey, Heart Trinkets are easier to get! What are your views on this?

Well, I have a couple of Dual-Hearts myself, and I don't mind switching my Brute Jelly Bands to them if/when someone else happens to have them. It really doesn't make too much of a difference if it takes six hits or three, this game is still a matter of skill. And really, Lockdown, in my eyes, is a giant Arms Race. It helps to be skillful, yes, but you need to keep your gear up to date in order to keep up with everyone else! And, really, other trinkets don't really make much of a difference unless you're in T3.
