What's nice (finally) is the Liberator seems to be a good "in-between" this time around; 44 SS and 22 DET. Hopefully it won't have some silly way to get it (looks like tomes, and the Sands are probably from clearing any Coil2 Turn). The Tidal Wave Harpoon is also looking better than Gae Bolg Animus, with 29 DET and 28 Acc, but its i100...

EDIT: I'm making the assumption that the minute you can (which should be very fast), Liberator will be upgraded, since Weapon Damage > All
