Not a nin, but have you checked your job's guide page?
http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/33470/the-sealed-dagger-a-ninja-guide/ scroll up on the page in the ninja guide you posted in last and you would see the following:
Siren.Akson said: » Yeah that's why I edited thinking you maximized Kannagi then just swapped wpns around while I maximized Nagi doing same. Quote: My only nit-picks are -0% def on tojil isn't realistic. Quote: Samurai Roll might be realistic for you, and it does indeed cater a little more towards Nagi, but It's not been my experience with other DD's present. 99% of the time it's chaos + fighters. Quote: Also, just curious, but you are adding +50% ODD to Kannagi in the first tab right? If you're using Fighters roll over SAM roll then I guess that adds up cuz you're killing off Mythic AM3 with it Gonna give 29% Fighters roll rq and see if it improves thier DPS over stp+70 SAM roll. Fighters Roll +29% over Samuai Roll +70 Code [Set DPS] Nagi — 1339.728 Izuna — 1387.484 Kannagi — 1369.787 Tancho+1 — 1366.762 Raimitsukane — 1336.823 Kikoku — 1314.602 vs SAM roll Code [Set DPS] Nagi — 1452.620 Izuna — 1439.580 Kannagi — 1419.104 Tanco+1 — 1417.504 Raimitsukane — 1390.760 Kikoku — 1368.702 Fighters no beuno! Chaos+SAM rolls onry unless need accuracy then Hunters+SAM roll imo. Fighters doesn't work for anyone. Currently, by the numbers, it is 6th best, behind other, far easier and cheaper options. In the future, however, we can assume SE will continue to buff RMEs, to maintain them, for the most part, as top choices. Diference of 13 dps (nagi to izuna) should be like the diference between using windbuffet nq and windbuffet +1...
At the cost of 40 windbuffets +1! Shouldn't Kikoku be ahead of Raimitsukane when you factor the ODD proc?
Altough it's certainly underneath Nagi, Kannagi, perfect augment Izuna and likely Tancho+1 as well. I'd just get Izuna and aug it then wait til next ilvl increase to continue with Kikoku imo or stick w/ Tancho+1 which is cheapest path til then.
Kikoku is a great weapon, but it's no different than all the other relics. Every relic has a 119 weapon, from delve or w/e, that beats it/just as good/almost beats it. The only exception I can think of is Annihilator because Coronarch is amazing.
If you want Kikoku, then build it and love every swing with it. My relics will always be in my main hand despite whatever new weapons come out.

It widely varies by what target you're fighting, and your buffs. Kikoku actually does pretty well, and I would certainly use it over other non-RME options if it was me. Here's a simple example. All weapons paired with OAT Taikogane. Code Target: Kamihr Raaz Food & Buffs: RCB, Haste II, March 2, Min 5. (that's it...) Izuna - 1398 Kikoku - 1380 Tancho+1 - 1357 Raimitsukane - 1343 Kannagi AM3 - 1491 Kannagi AM1 - 1425 Nagi AM3 - 1461 Izuna has DMG+10 Attack +20 Accuracy +20 WSD + 5%. You could spend as much as making a Kikoku chasing after those stats! Quetzalcoatl.Orestes said: » Asura.Sechs said: » Shouldn't Kikoku be ahead of Raimitsukane when you factor the ODD proc?

You could spend as much as making a Kikoku chasing after those stats! Yup, getting about the same numbers. Good to see we are all more of less on the same page. OP: Make what you want man! Making the right choice is personal opinion, I made one and love mine to death. I am sure once I finish up my Nagi I will love it just as much too! Look at all these wonderful beauties to choose from.
The one thing that still irritates me about relic and mythic katanas is we only get one. When we do the AF weapon quest we get two katanas. We should when we make Kikoku, Nagi, and Kannagi. Hell, even the original pic from SE has us dual wielding Nagis.
My gripe with Nagi is that it's missing the chain. Kusarigama is an amazing weapon but they broke it!
Why do you assume Nagi is a kusarigama instead of a regular kama?
A less informed player would say liberator is nagi. And liberator a random polearm. And tizona a banana.
Cause I think a kama would be more of a samurai thing as they fought with field tools.
Chain weapons were more of a ninja thing, like kyoketsu-shoge too (which I'd wager was a more popular weapon than the kusarigama anyway), ninja used weapons for strategic purposes and the kama alone is less useful than a jitte or sai for blocking. What I mean is, yes ninja used kama, but I don't think it deserves to be iconic compared to many other weapons, such as the kusarigama itself.

When I finish Kikoku I plan on doing kannagi just because i am in the middle of that trial also
My only gripe is that SE should stop screwing around, and just let the single hand RME's work in both hands to full effect.
Get Kikoku's attack and ODD offhand, allow you access to the WS, ect. What that's "NOT BALRANCED!" /sarcasm, yeah SE... and Rudra's Storm is just fine? /sigh. :/ Bismarck.Snprphnx said: » The one thing that still irritates me about relic and mythic katanas is we only get one.
