there is a high proba hyorin gona show up again, we already got it in server twice in ubp if i'm r ...
I disagree. While I would have liked to have paid less for Hyorinmaru, it is the best currently available zanpakuto in the game. Just look at the CN "Metagame" if you will. It is dominated by Hyorinmaru. This is with Zangetsu and Muramasa in the mix for a while now.
It is because Hyorinmaru gives you more then the other zanpakuto do, it is just disguised.
So, if you look at the overall character pool for each position, Assaulters have higher growth rates, while supporters are faster with lower growth rates. Both have effects attached to skills, but generally speaking those effects need to go off to matter. It is the old adage of How much damage does a dead or CC'd character do?
Hyorinmaru gives more then Zangetsu in this regard. While Zangetsu gives more speed ( 3% ), and +12% after buff, Zangetsu is not likely to give its buff before Hyorinmaru's supports get a chance to go. Additionally, with higher Agility growth rates on support, that 18% speed is worth more then the 33% speed that assaulters get ( because speed % is a multiplier after agility % ).
Muramasa out speeds Hyorinmaru so that does present some problem for Hyorinmaru, but a 3-1-1 Muramasa team will find it difficult to get through a Hyorinmaru tank, as Supports aren't that great at vanguard killing and since there growth rate is lower, the defense of a Hyorinmaru tank will take most of those blows for DAYS. Muramasa however is technically better then Hyorinmaru, but again Muramasa is not even out yet. Additionally, this whole post is the reason why Muramasa is cheaper ( despite being better ) then Zangetsu in CN ( 40 vs 54 ). It is because Hyorinmaru fills a role quite near the role Muramasa fills. And honestly, Hyorinmaru makes for a funner game experience. Having a Vanguard be a actual part of the team is really awesome, not to mention his skill animation. Orgasms for days :-P.
In this particular event, if you were to buy 2 event characters, it would cost you around 12k gold. If you wanted those characters anyway, another 5k to get Hyorinmaru is nothing. Not to mention the fact that I ended up getting Hyorinmaru, 2 Characters, the other extra goodies, when all is said and done for like 13k gold after rebates. It is hard to beat that. |
