endgame weapon choice for CeGl^Gozag
started today a centaur gladiator.

Never gave them too much credit because I thought Ce were only well suited for ranged (and I find it boring) So I started as a Gl with swords (just love swords, especially the unrandarts, even though they're not super synergetic with Ce's lack of EV). Converted to Gozag because it's a god I never got too far with and I am so curious to bribe a branch at least once.
I found in early dungeon the Trident of the Octopus King (funny how I keep finding this unrandart. Over the last few days I think I encountered it 5 times!) and switched to polearms because reach IS synergic with Ce's speed and resPos ad resElec are pretty dope. However I don't think this is an endgame weapon and so I have to decide what to do. An early shop displayed the Plutonium Sword and I was kinda curious to try it. At the same time a new shop I found displayed the Big shield of ignorance and I do like the extra protection of a shield on a low EV character like this.
So basically my question is should I stick with swords and aim at the Plutonium sword or resume training shields and hang onto my Octopus King trident and look for some demon trident later on? I am at the Shoals after all so it wouldnt be so unlikely to find one.
lmk what you guys think. Centaurs are pretty buff!
