Muken Aizen: is there a better Assaulter for PVP?

X-Zero13

I know that at this point, there's probably no one on the US- and/or EU-servers who already owns Muken Aizen, but everyone can check his stats, mods, skill etc. so I'm sure ppl have already made up their opinions and thoughts about him.

Even tho it'll take some time for me, I intend to get him. But right now, I also saved up enough vit for ubp but I'm not quite sure what to use it for (the only thing I know I'd definetely get would be tensa, but tensa is probably highly unlikely to appear in ubp (yet)).
Since I'm reluctant to change my supports or vanguard, the only partner-ish stuff I'd be interested in would be a better Assaulter for PVP, as #1 damage dealer (I'm using Yama atm).
So yeah, I thought I could use ubp if a good Assaulter shows up, but since I know I'll go for Muken Aizen eventually, I don't wanna spend my precious vit on a partner that I'll swap out for Muken later on (on a side note: I'm VIP0, so saving the vit for UBP is a hard and long piece of work for me and I don't intend to save vit for UBP again after I used my current vit).

So I was wondering the question I wanna ask you guys here and now: do you think there is any better Assaulter for PVP than Muken Aizen and if yes, who is it (and why?)?
(could the answer depend on my formation, tactics and priorities for Assaulters as well?) For the sake of convenience, let's just assume that ANY partner could show up in the next UBP. I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

Thanks in advance.
Edit: I'm using Sode, my formation is a halfway balanced 1-2-2 and my main Dmg comes from my Assaulter (in which I focus dmg-wise and which is not my main).

Just be prepared for all the possibilities you have taken into consideration, or at least try to.

Well then, he could be a great pick for you! Especially if he already fits in your kind of formation ^^

Koga is God.

By now, I think one could actually keep Koga beside Muken Aizen. If Muken Aizen's raw power isn't working, one could try with Koga for a more tactical approach.
(I also remembereed that with a fury booster - which I usually have in formation - Koga skills every round...)

I'm not too surprised about what u said about Yhwach and Bankai Yamamoto, but I'm really surprised ...

Yep he's the most likely to come in UBP than all of those, thought i wouldn't say anytime soon as he's definitely one of the best assaulters you can obtain as of right now

It's definitely not a bad choice at all to get Koga, or any of these, as long as he isn't getting replaced! ^^

0.o was that irony? Or do u really NOT want him to skill?

Just to throw in a different opinion on ...

it does have it's advantages, but really, mine is HARD stacked and it's very often that he is the last one alive on my team...  that keeps him skilling every round, and if your vang is still alive that means he keeps skilling against someone that is fossilized dealing no damage which can easily land me in the losing side of the fight, even if he grossly overpowers my foes...  yes, I'd MUCH prefer if i could forever fury restrict him...  in fact that's the main reason I want his exclusive skill...  well, that and the fact I can drop my Cute Orihime for PVE at that point easily

Just to throw in a different opinion on that: with Yama's fury restriction, I once defeated a Noza that I couldn't defeat without the fury restriction... so I'd think Noza's skill does have it's benefits.

note about Yama's fury restrict...   as a Noza user, I love it when he gets fury restricted as it's a HUGE boost to me and takes away the worst part of Noza...  just my 2 cents

There's prob only 3 other people to compare with for Muken Aizen: Koga Kuchiki, Yhwach & Bankai Yama ...

I'm not too surprised about what u said about Yhwach and Bankai Yamamoto, but I'm really surprised to see you mention Koga as well. I always thought that his skill seems pretty nice and the stats are decent too, but he doesn't seem to be a rather popular/common partner in the game.

So I already played with the thought of getting him if he shows up in UBP (I think, he's still the most likely one for that from the ones u mentioned, considering that there were already partners like Shini Kensei, Hisagi or Ichibe in UBP).
So u say it wouldn't be too much of a bad choice to get Koga even if I plan to get Muken Aizen too, yes?
