Assuming you're attack capped and using it over Shoha to keep aftermath up, this will suffice.


Head augmented with 3% WSD obviously. Mekira+1 if receiving day bonus.

You'll want to switch Pole Grip to Rose Strap if you are unable to fulltime Kaiten aftermath. Swaps for uncapped attack include Justiciar's Torque, Mekira-oto +1, Prosilio Belt.

There's a couple SAM threads floating around that you probably could've found, though. Even if it was a set for Fudo, they use pretty much the same gear aside from one of the earrings.

You shouldn't be using a Twilight anyway. If you can afford to Kaiten, you can afford an Oto +1.

Shura will always be better than Twilight for Shoha. Twilight is better for Kaiten if you need attack. Mekira-oto (NQ or HQ) is better than both.

Shura+1 with WSdmg+3% has a slight edge over Mekira+1 on non proc days. Most Shura+1 have SCdmg3% as well which is an additional factor for Kaiten spam.

Mekira+1 for Shoha.
