is it just me or do the kubara varients of weapons in this game just flat out suck. I mean i know that they have higher attack and acc but the pp is severely lacking, and doesnt improve as it did in PSU. Is this just a huge bug in this game or is that only a glitch on certain weapons, because i have 3 or 4 sweet deathics 40% + that i would love to get grinded up and throw on my palet.
I tried grinding my Shigga Destac up and it ended up with less than 200 pp......it was a mass amount of fail.

It's just Kubara logic...maybe.
If you really like a kubara counterpart, your best bet would be to just-attack for PP regen. Knuckles are pretty quick to regen PP with too.

Kubaras are kind of awesome for melee weapons. You don't need the PP so badly if you manage your normal attack combos and use criticals.
Kubara rifles and grenade launchers grinded to +10 can work and make the extra ATP worthwhile - they're great for nuking a single enemy ASAP. If you're using bullets for other guns or one-off purposes like debuffs, 200 PP is plenty for a mission. What sort of burns me is that the Kubara types ATP advantage doesn't put them on par with weapons 2+ stars more rare ... like I'd love to be using Bringer Rifle or Blackbullic as a power-hitter instead of my ugly Killer Elite, but they're only on par with Rattlesnake.
Kubara gun drops being so common are kind of awesome when starting off in New Game+ multiplayer sessions. When they're the only grenade launcher you can get your hands on, all those Gur Bazgacs that drop in HIVE missions are like heaven. "Oh sweet another 200PP worth of Boma Duranga"

for melee they aren't half bad, for guns I'd rather skip out on most of them unless they're the meteor series etc. With JA'ing and using regular hits most weapons regen PP like crazy anyways

Kubara (Twin) Daggers are awesome though Q_Q"
You can easily gain back all the PP you spend and still spam Triangle.

Kubara = Melee exclusive... Also, avoid tenorac weapons... despite them having the highest atp, their PP solely relies on the grind, unlike yohmeic and GRMac weapons which have 100-250 or so ungrinded.
Guns are too dependent on PP to really make good use of the ATP. And besides, all the best guns are not boot legged versions of other guns.
As for teching weapons, unless the Granahadorac is found, none of the kubara variations are worth it as the Profits of Motav is stronger.

yeah, thanks for all of the info guys, that is kind of disappointing though. Kubara weapons were pretty awesome in PSU if you were actually lucky enough to grind them up.
^.^
sadly i just dont see them being worth it in this game.
:\
which kind of stinks because i keep finding TONS of them.
