Can we stop giving new players bad advice on weapons?
I see many comments advising against pulling signature weapons and let me tell you that this is gonna brick accounts in the long run for 2 main reasons:
Endstate Matrix: you can't share weapons or echoes between characters
shilling: while it's true that when a character releases he probably doesn't need it's weapon to perform well, when the shill is gone, he's gonna feel very underwhelming, especially now that weapon effects are becoming more and more complex and tailored
I understand having to save astrites and pulls whenever possible but please stop telling people to skip weapons like it's not gonna affect anything in the long run.
Even new players need to understand that skipping weapons is gonna come back and bite them in the future.
EDIT: Thank you everyone for your contribution to this discussion. Reading through the comments I can see this is still a divisive topic cause everyone seems to be speaking just from their point of view and can't see beyond that, I admit I can be guilty of that too. I just see that many confused what I said, thinking I was talking about raw clears instead of building a self sufficient account that can last beyond the shill reset, and to start making decisions way before when they think they have to. And that also means thinking about weapons, signatures, and what they contribute to the endgame. There's definitely a middle ground that sits between pulling EVERY weapon and skipping every weapon and I feel like the wuwa community leans more towards the latter, which baffles me because we have one of the best banners for weapons and we have an endgame where you can't literally share them.
