Kaja. Only cons are no store TP and slightly less str, and the zanshin/seigan benefits so take that into account. You'll want to make up the stp elsewhere at least.
Presumably next iteration will make up the difference more, so there's that.

Fudo still way better, but Kasha is part of your chains so its benefit will be used.

As far as Starter sets and Mid sets are concerned, what content do you guys think should be accessible nowadays.

Edit: Updated some sets on OP and will add other stuff later. Somehow forgot how to change an image lol.

Opinions on which Valorous piece I should prioritize fishing for a better augment on? I've spent idk how many taupe so far...Oseem sucks for Valorous ;;

Current augments:

Head: STR15/Acc15/Atk3/WSD3

Hands: STR13/Acc4/Atk12/WSD4

Feet: STR15/Acc3/Atk19/WSD4

I want to say head which is, ironically and frustratingly, the one with the best accuracy. I find myself often in situations where I need to swap to a high-acc WS set which then swaps in stuff like Flamma Head/Feet. My current WS set only has 1079 accuracy (hasso up, no foods, no buffs) which I think is what most people would have unless their Val pieces are augmented with a ton of accuracy on top of the str/wsd.

For the high accuracy set, I would swap back in the wakido kote for the ken tekko. Ken has 1 more acc and 22 more dex, but, I think the kote overall would serve better with the stp/hasso+. Especially since you will activate set bonus with Regal ring which closes the accuracy gap between the two even further.

I'd keep those and just wait for the next DM campaign Luna, as most people are using similar augments to those. Typically you wouldn't need a higher ACC WS set unless you were underbuffed.

Murasamemaru's model, I wouldn't expect Tenkomaru.

Testing the new GK. It is Murasamemaru's look, and with over 100 stp I'm getting 100% DA. The downside is the 2nd swing nets 0 tp. It seems to proc after all multi-hit, meaning its a failsafe for hitting the extra white damage but not for getting tp.

edit: the initial swing nets full stp returns, with the second swing, if you don't get a multi-attack swing, nets a 0 tp return with odds increasing with STP.

Just want to make sure I understand this correctly.

I, personally, use a lot of Double Attack+ gear in my TP set so with that said....Example: I'm meleeing, and a regular Double Attack happens (I get TP for both hits) do I actually get another melee hit in after those 2 hits from the Double Attack?

If that's the case, that's actually nuts! I know, getting another hit in that doesn't generate TP doesn't seem all that significant, but in the end all that extra damage output will add up.

Also, I'm hearing the GK has the same hidden effect as the Murasamemaru? The hidden one that changes the damage type of weaponskills to be non-attribute damage.

From what I saw, the free swing happens after all MA procs, but only if no MA procs. For instance, you have 30% DA and you don't get a proc, you will get the free swing. If you get the DA proc, you will not get the free swing. It doesn't keep you from using your MA gear, thankfully, but only procs if your MA gear doesn't.

As to the non-ele, I'm not sure. I could pop a tier 1 in sky to test though.

How is that nuts when Masamune doubles your whole white damage which is far superior to white damage than adding one hit, not to mention other benefits.

The only thing that could make this gkt very useful is same hidden effect as Murasamemaru. Waiting for tests on that.

I guess I should rephrase. Nuts for someone who, for whatever reason, are unable to make a REMA GK and have to go with this. That's why I said "doesn't seem all that significant". For the typical REMA GK owner, it truly is ingisnigicant. You're right about one thing, though, if it has that same hidden effect as the Murasamemaru then this GK may be very useful.

Deleting my previous post, but the test results are: the ws's do not bypass shields, and the melee doesn't either.

I didn't test since it was 5 am, but from what I saw with DA, TA, and the like, I would assume zanhasso procs first. I believe I saw a high tp return on a second swing last night, and that would inicate a zanhasso proc.
