Braver Katana, seeking tips

[Nazuna]

Its been 2 weeks I'm playing as Katana braver. I gotta admit it was pretty fun when I started the class as Br/Hu but after I started entering SH, somewhat I feel lack of power now. Is it normal for normal attack doing 900-1200, Kanran doing 1.5k - 3.5k damage per hit (charged) and Asagiri Rendan doing 1.6k-2.8k per hit? Also for enemies on air, I found that Katana really have hard time to catch the monsters above jumping limit and had to wait for it to attack and counter it while its on ground. Any tips will be appreciated!

Lacking quite a bit of detail there.
Please provide your skill trees, levels, equipment, and explain what exactly are you targeting to hit those values. Doing 3.5k x 2 on a x2 damage modifying site(weak point) will be a mere 1.75k x 2 on most enemies.

Jump Shunka, or Asagiri for aerial enemies that barely move is fine. It's the ones that constantly move around where it may have a bit of trouble without something like Katana Combat active.

I still cant post links here yet due to insufficient posts =x. So I just gonna type text if that's ok
Anyway, currently level 64, using +10 Fubuki Kizan (11*).
And uh, I was hitting enemies at LQ which usually Kuronites and deals those damage. Unconditioned damage always around 980~1120 damage per normal attack (Or 12xx ~ 16xx Asagiri Rendan).
Edit : Hope mod didnt kill me D:

That's my current build atm. Gonna max Finisher and Weak Stance boost later.

[Bellion]

Average stance builds work better for katanas since they can't get headshot damage like a bow can for most enemies. Going with 2 stances generally don't work out if that's what you're going for. I cannot tell because I cannot access your actual build with that link.

What's your sub? Hu?

[Nazuna]

Oh remove the space between .net and /skillcalc. you should be able to see it. And yes. Hu is my sub. I swap stances and use it when I can aim for weakpoints.

Edit : Or wait, its broken :c.

[Hexxy]

That's my current build atm.

Is his build

Is his build

Thank you so much.

^Wonderful

Yeah, I'd recommend for you to reset your skill tree since dual stance just doesn't work out with how limited SP you can get.
You've got some odd skill point usage in your hu tree; max out JA Bonus 2 and scrap the guard stance stuff.

I'd recommend something like this.

[Nazuna]

I was about to get Massive Hunter, reason why I put 3 points on Flash Guard =x.

[Bellion]

I figured but those are some odd placement priorities ・。・

[Nazuna]

Yeah I messed up xD.

[TehCubey]

I disagree with Bellion about Massive Hunter. It is a good investment.

However you'd be better off with 5 points in Fury Combo up and 10 in JA Bonus 2, not the other way around.

You still have levels to go so resetting skills at a non-capped level feels like a waste to me. Just put your braver SPs into average stance and not weak. J Reversal Cover might be also worth looking into.

[Nazuna]

Allright. Thanks!
