Is there any melee weapon in LID better than the katana? I highly doubt it. This thing is an absolute monster that casually destroys everything 150 degrees around you on command in an instant. This is a "PRESS L2 TO WIN" kind of weapon. Where to begin? The ridiculous early-stage damage model spike in R&D is already obvious. I'm so far slightly past that spike myself (up to Blue Masamune +2), and sure enough, I'm already cutting the majority of high-level enemies into ribbons. The Barbarian decal beats the living shit out of any decal buffs you can have on a 1-handed weapon. If you're lucky enough to draw a Premium version of Barbarian, you can stack it with the normal version for double the bonus. Failing that, you can simply combine Barbarian with Samurai and still annihilate everything under 40F in your sleep. 2-handed weapons in general are sluggish, while strong to compensate. The katana's horizontal swing, however, is exceptionally lightning-fast with a mindlessly galactic hit cone. I've been countering enemy sabers with my eyes closed for so long now, my irons have been collecting dust.
You know, I almost fell for the electric toothpick meme. Thank God I didn't. I would be stuck with a narrow thrusting little runt that can't crowd-control for shit unless you break it. Meanwhile, the meat cleaver is like the katana's short, handicapped little cousin who can't move very well and never makes it to the family reunions.
I'm not sure the Jackal weapons and the scythe are even worth unlocking at this point. They may be good, but I feel the katana, iron and motorcycle are all I need to win the game. Well, perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself. I should first finish climbing the new tower expansion before getting a big head. I already reached one of the treasure rooms, though.

Jesus Christ. Someone give me the fucking soundtrack already Why people haven't ripped the sound files from it is outstanding.

Just rip it off youtube, or bother the share thread to spoonfeed you.

its just cosmetic weapon, it has 400 ATK m8, of course its garbage they are shit, have you seen the durability on this crap? they break in 10 attacks or so. and they have 400ish attack power. im already on Muramasa +3 bitch, bend over! its still the best weapon in the game, the attack is too fast and it stuns great for chopping through goons, and the poison, oh man, if they don't have poison eater, they're fucked. what are you talking about? did they add floors? since when?
watch and learn

I always carry a motorcycle because its rage move is a great "get out of jail free" card, but it only hits each enemy once. Godly crowd control, but hardly a Hater-killer. That said, the motorcycle's charge attack hits like a truck if you can stun them first.
Yeah, my katana is underleveled because I'm lazy. Gyakufunsha is definitely helping, though. And there is indeed a tower expansion. Sadly, so far I've mostly just seen old floor designs reused. Bravo, Grasshopper. These "new" floors have multiple Haters and Hunters, and no Screamers. Just a heads-up.

I'm only in the 2nd strata of the tower and it's pretty rough. That Jin-die fight was a disaster since there's no cover between the two floors and my character was hardly dealing any damage. I found out she has a crazy sludge laser move and that she can actually charge it up while you're stuck in place from the first time it hit you.
The biggest problem I have now is that I desperately need green metal to upgrade my weapons but so far the only one I found was a quest reward. Right now my only rank 2 weapons are the iron and firework gun but neither of them have the staying power to reach the next elevator if I want to try and circle around that jin-die fight.
Jaxon Russell
well ain't this just wonderful. my controller is broken. everytime i press the touchpad it starts maniacally spamming the L2/R2 buttons endlessly. cant eat nor throw food/shrooms now.
good job sony.
you can't circle around bosses. bosses are obligatory.
11F NOKEJIRI has a guaranteed gold chest on it with a chance for green metals. you'll have to farm that for the time being.
also jin die is pretty easy with the power of the mushroom, farm some transparagus in (or send Expeditions to) 11F and 12F, you'll eventually find some. i reckon with a good hammer, capped weapon proficiency, and about 4 or 5 transparagus, you can finish her. just remember that she teleports around the arena so don't eat all the transparagus at the same time for this fight
