Muramasa

calmar09

Hello everyone. I'd like to hear your opinion about this Zanpakuto. Going through it's stats and buffs with the skill it looks amazing if you have/want a heavy support damage composition. Since supporters are usually really fast because of their agility passives and growth rates, getting a 21% speed buff and yet another 12% buff after the zan's skill sounds like it's really hard to be outspeeded by someone even with Zangetsu or Senbon. Exception to that might be White Ichigo but, to be honest, I dont really worry myself with him.
It also has a higher reiatsu % modifier than zangetsu ( 125% vs 130% ) and gives the VG some buffs in HP and immune rate aswell.
Do you guys think it can be used on a competitive level at high levels of play? Specially in CSB and HMA since those are my 2 primary concerns.
Opinions?

muramasa can definitely be a great zanpakuto with the right setup.

Muramasa only matters if you've got the Spirit Stones to help with the damage rate and movement speed rate. I've seen some people in Hueco/CSB with Muramasa that simply don't have the damage or movement speed to make up for the Zanpakuto.

With higher level equips that opinion may change over time, but overall better Partners/Spirit Stones seem to hold a slightly higher value. Though i'd certainly consider getting Muramasa in an event such as UBP.

He's great in the right hands with the right partners and such. People can't just get him and expect him to work like others I believe since support is usually not focused as heavily on for most. The temptation is there with me to get him, but I don't think he'll be optimal right now. Though if I did get him, I could finally be faster than Honda Katsu's Yama ^_^.

I love my supports too. Shinso Gin would be so fast with him but I'm in no rush for that.

I'm totally happy I got him. I got him the second time he came out after release which was Joint Task and I've never been happier with a purchase since then. He's such a great asset for so many teams. With him I T1 my whole team after his attack goes off if nobody is fury restricted. Lucky nobody but Honda Katsu and Mari in US CSB 42-47 have Yama so far, so I'm kinda safe. His stun rate is rather low that I've experienced. Like you put it, it's so random that I can't ever count on it. I have him at 172k speed with full cyclone infused and zangetsu atm at 107 which doesn't seem fast enough. Only 61 Reiatsu cuz I've been lazy getting partners for Hollow Souls. Hyour pushes over 178k. Stopped pushing his speed since I got Yama, now it's time to buff him up ^_^.

For who I'm fighting against, it's not needed as nobody pushes 200k speed so far. The missing stats can be level difference and lack of Reiatsu. He's great on events too, him and DRukia/Cute Orihime help whole team skill every turn. It's quite fun.
