fair enough.  i appreciate you breaking it down like that.  looks like s yourichi is a no go...   i'll just save up books till i get him,  shouldn't be too much extra work to level him up

So basically, there is no right answer. Just go with what you think might be right

Ahaha. Well not exactly. Shura + Isshin has potential for higher damage, while Isshin+Sexy may give out a better average damage cause of higher combo. Tbh my main dilemma lately is Isshin's effectiveness after the nerf.

But no matter how you break it down, it always come to personal choice. Else we would see everybody running around with the same formation. Pretty much what they're trying to achieve with Hiki, because if everyone uses the same formation, the one who invests more $$ on it is undoubtedly the winner, we didn't have this before. But if I keep up this i will turn this thread into a Hiki bashing one, so i ll stop

also, do Ryoka and ES have a Break Defense stat?  as that IS a notch in Kenny's favor if they do

This is the only reason people get Shura... is for ES/Ryoka at high lvls.  He'd suck royally if his only benefit didn't apply to these major PvE events.

Sexy's combo rate advantage and fury generation, IMO, makes up for the damage difference and then some..  But it doesn't make up for the HUGE benefit of blocking basically 100% of hits when you use Shura.  That is why he is godlike for PvE.

I haven't tried since Isshin's nerf tbh. Back then there wasn't comparison. Now I dunno, really. Would require a lot of testing. Just wondering, since I've been using Shura like forever, you can't block Ryoka 70+ without Shura? Even if capped?

I went the sexy route and gave everyone T1 before phys stones. Full T1 will give you better PVE

Kosmodestiny

I used to run with s yorui, she did me well when I needed her to t1 my team for pve. When I got enough fury stones to t1 using shinso I switched to kenny and my damage went up by about 15% or so.

Then I switched to B renji and my damage went up another 50% XD
