With how much tp dmg scales after update, I just don’t see how anyone could even say that Masamune is the weakest of all the notable weapons. I guess a Masamune sam must not have the same abilities as a Koga/Tsu/Amano Samurai. In no way am I saying Masamune is better then Koga I know better, im very familiar with the mechanic of AM3. What i am saying, is that Masamune is very formidable weapon after the update.
Not sure why anyone would only maintain am1 after the update when Sam practically starts off with AM2 in every situation, not to mention you could build Aftermath in the scale of 1>2>3. Hope this can stay civil but if not my heart is ready.

They'd want your a** ready, not your heart.

On a more serious note, Koga asap.

What does Masa have to recommend it? I'm being serious. At least Amano has 40 ACC, so it's not bad in non-Ionis situations where you need a lot of accuracy.

SAM is a secondary DD job for me, currently I'm using Sam JSE GK until I get Anahera Blade or Tsu. Does anyone else use JSE? Getting koga or masa would be nice but I'm not willing to put the time in after building 3 relics for other jobs.

Just curious to see what people are using in place of RME and delve weapons.

Last I checked, the GKT from Tchakka augmented with OAT(and probably accuracy, depending on what you do) was just barely worse than Tsuru

To the original poster.

If you love Samurai and have the time and Gil to throw at Koga then by all means do so. It's a fantastic weapon in every way. If you're looking for very very good alternatives for little to no effort pick up the aforementioned Tsurumaru. It can do formidable damage especially in Ionis zones. Anahera Blade is also very good, especially for zerg situations like Stellar Fulcrum BC or just in general outside Ionis. If you already have Amano or Masa they too can do well. You'll want access to Tachi Fudo no matter your weapon of choice.
Hope that helps.

You chose this version of Masamune?

Terrible.

For stuff like T4/T5/MB Yorcia, it seems like the 115 ilvl and lower accuracy would hurt Azukinagamitsu quite a bit. I'll have to play with the samurai spreadsheet and see.
