so how do you guys compare astra with aus and orbit ?
just drop aus and orbit to get an astra ? it's potential is rl strong and too easy to get anyway

[Limbo_lag]

(copy pasta'd from the general questions thread):

How viable is an orochi in the current meta? Compared to an astral, is it still stronger in KC? Im considering selling the one I have and just using astral, but wanted to get your opinions.

[SteveCZ]

I'm doing a quick calc with damage calc here, so it seems like Astral is stronger even in KC. If you have Gix, it's much preferable though if you don't switch much to Orbit weapon.

any good build for a pure katana br/hu?

Not to say attack advance and more step advance is the best thing ever, but would you still find Average Crit Up more useful than 4 extra step advance points and attack advance maxed? Gear, that stance up, and natural is 80% crit strike, right?

I thought the gear was 50%?
I just slapped fury crit and a crit ring on for my br because of that ._.

Remove the J Reversal Cover (or leave 1 point) from that build and put them to Step Advance points if you like.

Yeah, it should be, 50% for gear, 25% for average stance crit, and then 5% natural. Just wondering if it made that much of a difference when you're using a 13 star.

oops i forgot i did change that on my actual build (and that tree is 88 idk what im smoking tonight). 6/10 crit + 5/5 attack adv with this tree. i use satk crit ring as br most of the time, with chat commands if i need ppc for some reason. also, 5/5 JR cover is your saving grace to cover mistakes while maintaining gix pot. i highly recommend keeping it at 5/5. dumping points into step advance past 2/10 is such a waste on braver when you should be blocking, not stepping anyway.
