    Really, you'd send some poor uninformed soul to BG? That's just cruel.

    Really, the question is only "stupid" because it fails to ask clearly for the information that the person asking wants. The question is implied to be "Which is the superior Weapon Skill: 'Tachi: Rana' or 'Tachi: Fudo'?" The question that should have been asked was "Which of these weapons is more worthwhile to pursue: Kogarasumaru or Masamune?"

    While there are myriad factors in Masamune's favor, this is strictly speaking a matter of opinion still. I must observe, however, that the OP's opinion seems to be a bit biased in favor of the Kogarasumaru, as indicated by the disbelief that the Masamune could be all that superior a weapon. The question to be asked here, of course, is why bother asking any such question at all if you're still going to hold your bias, no matter what the answer?

    If he went straight to the "Random Question Thread" and asked there instead of posting a new thread in advanced I'm sure he'd get a great answer.

    ...

    That being said, I'm relatively positive Masamune will win in the long run. You have to remember the "Aftermath" on Mythics is only 1 of the 3, not all 3. When you WS at a certain TP%

    100% is Accuracy
    200% is Attack
    300% is Occ.Atk.2x

    I'd vote Masamune, But i'm no SAM expert. I just know storing to 300% TP really hurts your WS damage, no matter how fast you get there, You're essentially losing 2 WS's worth of damage.

    ?

    I was replying to someone throwing out a hypothetical situation, not describing an actual event that has happened.

    He was saying "Sending them to ask a question on BG would be suicide". I was just saying "If he uses the Random Question Thread it wouldn't be too bad". really you are being quite defensive.
