Onion Sword is pretty fun on BLU in Sortie for ACEG bosses, because it makes light with all the fragmentation WSs and doesn't wall BlackHalo and Savage users.

Amazing which party comp you go with when you go as blu? I'm myself Onion Sword user.

Im actually gearing my team, so it was simple undergeared standard melee approach with BLU as 2nd DD, so WAR BLU COR BRD GEO WHM.

That being said I think BLU is very good for few things in Sortie, but mostly for starting groups. It can do A objective very fast. It can stunlock botulus for easy fast kill from behind. It can stun lock A and E bosses. Mighty Guard helps with haste and survivability. It can entomb 6 fomor room to make easy and fast 6x 4step and order objectives at once.

Did the new limbus gear and NMs make any of the bonanza weapons the true winner or should one still hold out and see what's still coming?

Why is that? I figured all the extra multi attack made onion sword III a little more attractive.

Onion Sword just a weapon, the gear makes it better (gear makes everything "better")

The yagyu "got better" cause shadows "matter" more than they do normally since defensively tanking doesn't work.

Shadows are nice when def/blocking etc means little and a not-insignificant amount of mob moves are phys. Not gonna say its a game changer but its potentially doing more than the rest of the weapons(not counting horn, horns neat imo)

If were talking offensive gains OSII might have gotten a modest boost at least on rdm as sworn bumps them to 80~ TA, hoxne already boosted it a bit, quite a dex hit though compared to something like malig

OSIII got a pretty substantial gain for jobs using Hoxne Ampulla since it FTP carries. I imagine it still loses to other options if you don't need it to weaken WS wall, though.
