So I'm getting close to getting my first atma weapon and I am stuck with the not so trivial choice of whether to go with the bravura or the curtana. I have to admit that the curtana animus has a much stronger visual effect than the bravura animus when the glow is not present. On the other hand, the bravura animus can look just as good given the right armor set. Its a tough choice given that I run both paladin and warrior equally.
Which one would you choose if you had to make the call and why?
I would choose based on the Job I enjoy playing more.
If I where going by ascetics I would go for Curtana in a heartbeat.
Bravura's badly done Blood-splat looks worse and worse everytime I look at it.
I like my weapons bloody. (Bravura Atma)
If you don't plan to get higher than Atma (Animus-Novus) I would say choose the weapon that you will mainly play with.
After, nothing stops you from hunting Atmas again (wow I used 2 dreaded words on the same sentence)
If you go higher than Atma, the glow will be temporary, I wouldn't stop there.
And again, if you have Atma, you should as well keep on upgrading it, at a smooth pace, no rush if you'd like. Like a goal to set yourself ^^
Good luck and enjoy the Glow! ;)
When it comes to aesthetics they're pretty much the same. Just a big ball of glow. My bravura is at a stage where I can't tell the form anymore.
Curtana Atma and shield only go really well with the Valor set. The Bravura atma+ go with anything.
