Tsubaki Mk. II Vs Mk. III

[Caped64]

I bought the Mk. III from the weapon store but I noticed that it was totally different from the Mk. II in terms of damage. I used the Mk. II in the fight against the 3rd ranked assassin and took them out relatively quickly but in the next fight against the 2nd ranked assassin it took me ages to get their health down. Is the Mk. II just better in terms of overall damage? I noticed that the Mk. III has wider kill swings compared to the Mk. II but it just seems more worth to use the Mk. II since it can kill both enemies and bosses fairly easily. And before anyone asks, I did get extension combo training before fighting the 2nd ranked assassin.

I just want someone else's opinion on this, since it seems like when its upgraded the Mk. III could be better but the investment of $999999 for the power saver seems a little crazy to me

Update: Never mind about the power saver, I didnt know it just gave me infinite charge, but the question about the Mk. II vs Mk. III still stands

Tbh if you can master the parry system which isn't that hard to do there's no need to ever replace MK 3. And if you grinded for the power saver you can spam charged moves and make every single boss a complete joke.

I also noticed when using MK2 that it pushes back enemies a bit and sometimes my attacks would miss.

Oh ♥♥♥♥ i never considered spamming charge moves with the infinite charge. And if that parry system is just hitting attack the moment I block the attack then I see why it'd be worth it.

this game has a parry system i usually just kill them before they can touch me or dodge into slow mo. also does the third beam have like special abilities sometimes i do crazy moves and idk how not like finishers itll be otta nowhere like i did a charged move but didnt

MK-!! has more damage per hit. While Mk-III swings faster and more often. MK-!!! has more overall DPS supposedly but especially a lot on the later bosses were your combos get blocked after X number of hits I would assume it does a lot less. I used the MK-II up until Henry were you are forced to get it, so I might not know best

Yeah you reeeeaaallly need to get the extended combos perk from the gym to actually make it viable

[Elwen527]

After that it generally becomes one of the best weapons in the game

and I really hate to say it but spamming low feels really cheesy but its the only way to do the one hit things without getting hit
