What are the best weapons or upgrades in Pilgrammed?

The best Pilgrammed priorities are usually the ones that improve survivability and reliable damage first, then reward stronger specialization once your route is stable.

Should I chase flashy damage early?

Usually not if the route becomes fragile. Easier and more stable gear often helps you progress farther before greedier build pivots become worth it.

When are greedier builds worth using?

They become worth it once your route has enough armor, recovery, and path knowledge that the extra damage is not wasted on shaky survival.
