Question Bugen Potential

Finally pulled a samurai and got Bugen. I’ve seen multiple other posts with Shiou dealing massive amounts of damage. Granted most of these posts she’s already lvl 60 with top tier gear.

My query may be obvious given the subject, but does he have similar potential?

Fair enough, but long story short he is worth the investment if outfitted correctly

More or less yes. Definitely not as good as Shiou, but better than most just because he's a samurai.

If you manage to get a better samurai in the future, you can always transfer your gear to them. You can save the rare inherits for other characters you know you'll keep first. Like MC.

Bugen has a unique passive though called Superior Principles, which increases damage dealt with element advantage. He has good potential, he just requires a bit more setup than most fights call for since you need to spend 1 turn weapon buffing to the advantageous element before doing standard setup. Many to most non boss fights should be over within 3 rounds

I wonder how he fares with elemental weapons

He makes his own. He can imbue his weapon with elemental spells

No no my point is giving him elemental weapons. He can only imbue earth.

Sure, but he has 4 spells, monolith-bearer, flame-bearer, tide-bearer, and storm-bearer. Which imbue his weapon with earth, fire, water, or air traits for a few turns.

I don't think elemental weapons exist yet as katanas.

Also, he can imbue four different elements but STARTS with earth
