For S5 I have literally almost zero doubts.
I was more pondering on S4 I guess.

I have enough Galli for a S4 and honestly I'm not sure if I'm ever gonna find the strength to get a second S5, which implies I might be stuck on S4 forever or for an incredibly long time.

And at that point you wonder, is it worth it? Should I just keep those galli stored and see what happens in the next ~6 months?
Because I'm sure for several other weapons the question is a solid "yes, it's still very very worth it", for GKT in particular though, given the things I mentioned in the previous post, I was getting more tepid feelings about it =/

Gkatana is one of the few primes that is a clear winner and next step in a jobs weapon progression. 100% worth getting if you use sam for anything.

Even at stage4 it will be your best physical ws option on sam, by quite a bit. Hybrids should still favor aeonic.

SAM gets TP so fast even for Hybrids I use Prime for the extra macc. Add in Mpaca head and Moonshade and the TP bonus from Aeonic isn't as big of a deal on SAM as it in on other jobs.

Mumei wrecks Fudo as others have said, its really not close. 10/10 would make prime GKT again.

It's worth mentioning that the extra macc on Kusanagi is only present on St5 (and it's incredibly small). Doji has the same macc (and more mdmg) as Kusa St4.

I've tried both (St4 vs Doji) for hybrids and IME, the Doji is more consistent. You also don't have to keep up AM which is a nice bonus.
