My advice? Make whatever the heck you want and forget what other people say about it. It's your character, you make the choices not them.
Best Mythic Weapon And Why
Best Mythic Weapon and why
Well said.I'm making a Yagrush and I, for one, couldn't give a hoot what anyone else thinks about it :)
[+]
On the topic of Mythics, how useful would the 30% SA/TA damage on Vajra help as an off hand dagger for stacked Mercy or Reduras, and in general unstacked SA/TAs? Obviously the high delay and rest of dagger is being wasted, so can't see it ever being worth it just for that. Can't see it beating Mand/Twash. But was just wondering. Also I must be stupid if the bonus doesn't work on offhand, I have no clue and don't see that specified on any wikis.
you don't get any bonuses other than DMG and Delay of the weapon on your offhand iirc

Best mythic is for me Liberator, because my favorite job is DRK.
[+]
best mythic will be koga because
SAM/DRK
SAM/DRK
Not sure why Death Penalty's lack of mention is confusing anyone. It's comparatively horrible for anything other than killing something exclusively with Quick Draw.
It's the best looking weapon in the game though!

Hell naw, Ryunohige is glorious

Best for dmg: Conquerer, Liberator, Koga...saw a Ryuno DRG in action wasn't impressed at all..Also Yagrush/Burtgang are the best for utility
Your insight is appreciated

Was a bad drg.

Has to be for your favourite job imo. For me that is Nirvana :D

The DRG must have been terrible. Just like any weapon, the player has to help it live up to its potential.

Tupsimati #1 by far

No one mentionned Runefencer's mythic!
I've already finished runefencer mythic with my imagination.
That's how much I look forward to the job!

If they do the 1h adjustments properly then "best" could change in the near future.

One of many reasons to worry less about pure power for a mythic, and more about what you enjoy playing. Everything in XI is cyclical (though much less so than it used to be, to be sure).
Evertything is cyclical...except sam buffs.

Carnwenhan is very good, but only because I enjoy BRD, play it all the time, and have other gear to support it.
Ryunohige is pretty huge but I can readily say that it requires some skill and experience to use well and that I mess it up more than I care to admit.

I wouldn't make Death Penalty if COR was my main job, I really don't understand why people would spend 500+M on weapons like terp/kkk/death penalty etc, when not only could they have made an extremely powerful weapon (Ryunohige/Kogarasumaru/Yagrush/guess credits to the BRD one aswell) but would have made yourself more versatile aswell.
For example, you main is COR and you have an Arma 90+, you're already perfectly acceptable, now, say, you went and made one of the top-tier mythics, you bolstered yourself alot more substanially than using the time/gil on your already good COR for Death Penalty.
Since I was using an endgame friendly job as an example, it's a worse case scenario for jobs that aren't, since your maximaizing a job that well frankly, isn't useful.
Sure, a KKK or w/e will really help your solo/low man play, but I do not understand why you would maximize solo/low man play to that extent.

I personally would be much happier with a DP than with a Koga. If you don't like the job then who the hell cares if the weapon is good, I have a qiqirn hat for no *** reason.

No reason?! I have one because it looks adorable.
Burtgang: You will take less Physical dmg, but party/alliance members who aren't supposed to be taking any DMG, will take more DMG than necessary by pulling more hate often.
Score:
+1 For PLD "did you see that? I survived and you all died. Screenshot"
-1 For alliance/party. "wipe, we need more hate control. DD's need to hold back"
Even spamming Atonment and achieving decreased enmity reduction isn't going to offset the loss of enmity generation you could be gaining by spaming other ws's.
Score:
-1 For PLD "man atonement sucks"
-1 For Alliance/Party "he has a burtgang but we still died"
Poor DPS in comparison to other swords, this sword is just a tutrtle tank's wet dream. If you want to reach the pinnacle of turtling, get Burtgang. If you want to be a better tank, start making use of your dmg output potential to hold adds, rather than turtling. You will find your whms taking hate much less often when you are itching away at the adds HP.
Score:
Burtgang PLD +2 "I can solo Nidhogg and Tiamat"
Almace PLD +100 " We're in HoM, talk to you later?"

"I don't understand this game's enmity system" would have taken substantially fewer keystrokes
Burtgang is pretty meh and sidegradey, but your explanation is horrific

Yagrush, for the fundamental change in how the job functions.
