Need long term advice

dionysvs

so im really considering getting zangetsu from anniv feast.atm i have isshin, tavern rukia, tavern yoruichi, sajin
my future plan is isshin, kisuke, tavern aizen, hollow ichigo/swp ken
also im using main 10th and stacking damage


i have about 2k gold atm, with current events and rebates, if i top up 1k a day for 4 days i should get roughly 8k
so in the end i can get 5*lv7, 3*lv8,1*lv10 spirit stones and zangetsu zanpakuto and w/e random pyramid stuff i get

so my questions are
1) is my future team good enough for mid vip?
2) are there any other zanpakutos that'll benefit my team more? except tensa...
3) is what i get from these events good value? are there better ones?

thanks

for pve that is a great team. but for pvp you will want to switch isshin for CSB Byakuya. if your kiskue is t1 and giving every1 else t1 then i would highly reccomend upgrading to shinso because kiskue is slow as fuck and in pvp speed is everything (lease event is great if you cant buy that much at once however it is not that efficient) if he is not t1 then you want ultima aizen and csb aizen for your supports. if kiskue is t1 and you refuse to upgrade then go with ultima. but get csb anyway for hollow soul maps.

Well, for starters, Isshin really wants to have 3 assaulters. The more chances to proc combo's the better.

Secondly, buying items from anniversary feast nets you 2 of each item. So you chose level 10 agi stone, there would be 2 level 10 agi stones in the area, for example.

1) Depends on what you think Mid VIP is. If you are talking like VIP 6, then not really. If you are VIP 4, it is fine.
2) As I mentioned, your team isn't really optimal. However, if you are determined to run a 2-2-1 scheme, then Zangetsu is probably one of the better ones for you. Having support based supports, they wont benefit a ton from the damage boost of Zangetsu though.
3) There are better top up events. This top up cycle is really good for 20k+ top ups.

Consider, for a moment, that new red partners are coming out at 12k gold. Hikifune has had more effect on the game by herself then ANY other partner or zanpakuto released since Day 1, and she was only 12k gold. Ichibei, while I am not a fan of him, is by far the tankiest VG we have ever seen. It seems entirely reasonable that other releases would be pretty powerful in there own. It might be better to wait and conserve your gold for the future. Zangetsu isn't going to be THAT much of a upgrade over even Zabimaru for you if you plan on running Kisuke and Tav Aizen.

the thing is, shinso costs 12k minimum, thats just a bit too much for me
even if i saved over 100% rebate events thats still 6k pure top up, while 4k pure top up zangetsu can benefit my whole team
and isshin can control enemy assaults, i would ditch him if i get ultima aizen but that wont be after i get noza ken (from another poll i did)
and kisuke isnt t1 yet, using tavern rukia right now, with her +fury mod i can t1

i can aim for csb byakuya or do you have another assault in mind?

the thing is i can see myself getting countered by murasama, but since everything i build is assault oriented it'll be really hard to change to support for damage

Thats not mid vip, thats above average vip, mid vip would be those without anything too special and decent stones, but you got some gold partners already.

top up during Ultra Hero,  that is by far the best/cheapest place to get decent partners for VIP5/6   you can easily get S+ partners (Dark Rukia, Vang Toshiro, Zabimaru Renji, Shini Shinji, $50 each), SSS Zans (Sogyo, Hyorinmaru, $70 each), and with moderate top ups ($100 each) you can even get a few SS partners(shini Kieske, shini Yourichi).  I HATE to spend gold on partners.  You will have to top up/spend more to get them free usually, but you do get to spend the gold on what you want!!   If you have to top up slowly, then limited lease may be for you.  I have a few I'm getting there myself.  I usually top up $20 a week, pay for Shinzo for the week, and with the 50% rebates + event rebates, can easily afford Isshin + Soph Rangiku with the bonuses, so I tell myself that Shinzo is the only one I'm paying cash for and the rest are free  XD   sometimes you gotta stretch the truth to yourself to justify your actions

I'd suggest keeping your gold for future red partners, buying stuff now is a waste

I'm vip6 myself and I wouldn't recommend dropping Isshin. My current setup is Aizen(t1), SWP Aizen, Isshin, main and Starrk. I think Isshin's void is much more effective pvp wise than Hakuteiken, especially if you're fighting stronger opponents. Since you went for SWP Ken, Ultima is too too far away with only vip6 and you need some control on your team. The big question is Muramasa vs Zangetsu. I went for Muramasa, but if you set your mind on Zangetsu I would suggest to focus your Isshin's evo and make him pure t1, cause as mentioned above Kisuke is slow as fck. Then either replace Kisuke with Gin/Unohana or keep him to to have your rest team t1, but slower than Isshin.

Asides Zanpakuto don't waste any gold on partners. The current rate of releasing new partners is pretty fast, so no need to hurry
