I think that gorget comparison only works for certain types of WS (mainly 1 hit WS, no?), not all at the very least. I don't think its quite as cut and dry. And I don't think that general rule applies to these WS, as we've never had a 100% stat mod WS before.

That sounds very skeptic, tbh.

Yea I realize that, just a rule of thumb I guess that I always follow. Damage comparator suggests that gorgets will beat justice/justiciar/ire/+1
while elemental belts do not beat beir +1 or nq for that matter.

Gorget is roughly worth 15 str, heard that somewhere on here, from someone who knew what they were talking about.
I don't care about stuff from people who knew what they are talking about.
I care how the argument can be presented. Gorget is hardly worth 15 STR. And definitely not for a WS with base damage as freaky as new ones.

For Shoha, I don't think it is. Since Shoha initial fTP doesn't go to subsequent hit.

Ok, so decided to give it a go, got it 1/5 to start with and joined a bee party so i could do my keito trial and play with ws at the same time ^^ Now, i haven't looked after my sam and its poorly geared but even so with crap gear and buns i was still consistently pulling alot of 3k+ Shohas and managed to get a few over 4 and a few over 5k, this is my best one.



Can't wait to see what is possible with 5/5, some better gear and fully upgraded Keito............NUTS!! O.o

p.s inb4 lolweakabysseamobs....

I actually heard the "gorget adds 15 str" as well, back when people were comparing justice torque to gorgets for YGK @75.

According to BG tests Shoha has an attack bonus like YGK, so it would come down to Da+2% vs 2 STR. I'd personally go with Hachi, but I don't have any math to back it up.

If its a gekko bonus, i'd go with hachi too, if its a Y/K bonus the attack could be useful.

It depends on what attack gear you have already as well. 'Cause even if it just mimics Yukikaze, a 50% attack bonus is still huge; and don't forget Hachi has 5 attack(& 1.5 from the 2 extra STR) making it only fall behind by 5.5 Atk.

Quick math shows TPbonus GKT(95) with 15% better WS damage then Masa (90)for Shoha at 100tp. Obviously using Sekka, haga and any overage in TP will pull that spread down.

Masa should remain SAMs best weapon if you can keep Fudo AM up. Voidwatch Wing > Fudo > Shoha spam for 3min, repeat.

Amano users got a nice buff, they'll have to tweak gear to 5hit with no AM but thats not a big loss nowadays.

Edit: Nothing touches Mythic but I have never seen one in game. A few exist however.

I don't believe Masa would be that far behind, just use Fudo to keep aftermath up and use Shoha otherwise. Your WS numbers won't be as high as neo-hagun's, but DoT could pull ahead. Same goes for Amano and I read somewhere that Mythic GK basically blows everything out of the water now.

Comparing a straight ftp bonus such as gorget to str, is the same as comparing MAB to int. Depending on the situation you can make assumptions such as gorget~15 str but you can not always assume that, lots of wses have lots of different ftp mods.

In the case of Shoha and assuming using the +100tp GK you are already looking at a base ftp of 2.15+1(tho I do not know if gorget/belt effects 2nd hit). I'm a bit too busy to do the calculations right now but eyeballing it with about 170str before neck/waist, the .2ftp bonus would be equal to about 15str total (not each).

So in the case of this high ftp and high str mod WS, the str may actually be better, but I couldn't tell you an actual answer with doing all the correct math.

I can't remember where I read it, but having high DMG riding the OA2-3 basically destroys DoT wise.

Edit: feels impossible to search for it because people either refer to it as mythic or koga(which brings up so much about ninja relic xD).

Uhhh no. Adding 10 STR to 100 STR gives you less boost than giving it to 90 STR. This should be obvious without any calculation.

I really want to hear the real argument on this. SAM is more of WS spamming machine than DoT (far from it, in fact). If there's a favorable condition where keeping OA2-3 attack most of the time, the fight must be long and extremely lenient.
