Hyōrinmaru or Zangetsu?

[email protected]

Friends,
I'll do a recharge to catch Hyōrinmaru or Zangetsu this week.
Which of them should I get? What is the best?

Hyorinmaru just because its a great combo with Shin kenpachi, stark, Bikini Rangiku, and Vasto lorde ichigo, and level 110 tavern hollowed masked Ichigo... [ I also forgot to mention Toshiro ]
+ he is great for 1-1-3 formations

Zangetsu is great if you just want a tanky tank and powerful AS line and Fast support

I would go for Zangetsu, maybe later for the other one.
Zangetsu will help u a lot in Evil Spirit and Ryoka => more gold + exp.
In the most situations it will help u in pvp too at least at the current state of the game.
There wont be many situations, where u will have a bit advantage by using Hyōrinmaru at the moment except maybe some (solo) Hollow Spirit map fights. Till u will use Hyōrinmaru effectively u will probably have the chance to get it really cheap or for free with ubp-event.
Even in endcontent it will be maybe useless to use [size=14.4444446563721px]Hyōrinmaru, coz more and more people could use Ultima-Aizen, who will make some crazy shit with ur vanguard u don´t want to give him too much dmg.


Btw, is Hyōrinmaru even obtainable this week ?

zangetsu, great overall.
more speed and damage for assaulters and supports

hyorinmaru is just a vanguard oriented zanpakuto with a little speed for supports.

zangetsu 100% > hyorinmaru

hmm.. you dont seem to get the idea. it doesnt matter if u have zangetsu if enemy supports stuns ur team before they get to do anything

hmm. you don't seem to get the idea that zangetsu gives much much more speed to assaulters than hyorin gives to supports, and zangetsu gives a 10% speed bonus after it skills, so that's even more speed to assaulters.
I have zangetsu and it works very well as any supports that are faster than me become slower after zangetsu skills. Supports can be 1 shoted by assaulters too before they can stun assuming their supports even do so

15% beats 3% ty.

I'd get Hyorinmaru if you are super defensive and totally relying on your support. (3-1-1 formation) As for most people Kazeshini is probably better than Zangetsu because of the damage decrease, 10% might not seem much but you will notice it.
Attack enemy A, amp 10%, decrease enemy A 10% dmg, increase ally A 10% dmg

If you ask me, Zangetsu is a zanpakuto for higher level VIPs, you lose some defense but gain a lot of attack, this is just my opinion though.
