  • A very special video this time. This is what I've been up to over the past month, but it was worth it!
    This is an incredible weapon, not without its flaws, but a legitimate game changer if/when it becomes obtainable by the masses.

    Rua, I’ve watched your videos for years now, and I wanted to leave a comment to say how much I appreciate your delivery style and FFXI knowledge! Your videos are simply the best!

    I want to thank Lepton for entrusting me with his character to make this video. He's had the character since 2004 so this really was an incredible act of faith.
    If/when he comes back he's coming back to a strong character with an incredibly powerful and unique weapon.
    Oh right, this is the Enmity build I have been using. Ruau and Lep both use the same set.
    www.ffxiah.com/item-sets/359661
    Gear: 64 Enmity
    Fudo Masamune: 70 Enmity (Starting with San then quickly going to Ni > Ichi makes this more or less guaranteed)
    Yonin & Gekka: 60 Enmity
    Merits: 5 Enmity
    Total: 199 Enmity
    Honestly, 200 Enmity for Yagyu Darkblade is probably overkill; I just high-balled it for the sake of it.

    Hey Ruau, Spoonerism here. I'm so excited to see your Yagyu Darkblade video!!! Hopefully SE will make it earnable some day. Thank you for joining us in our farming of Tumult Curator. I'm so glad we could work together to help Leptwo get the Tatenashi Body. ;) I feel like I've contributed slightly with your awesome video! Thank you so much for all you do for the FFXI community! You rock man!

    awesome, simply awesome, i hope they add other avenues to get this weapon. I would love to see how nin/run would work with this weapon.

    Back when NIN was widely known as a tank SE talked about how they didn’t intend for us to tank via shadows, now this.

      Indeed. Nin was baller as hell. Still my favorite job.

    It makes me happy that someone did what I was thinking of doing if I won 😂 loan character to Logical so he could try out yagyu however you would have been my number 2 to try it out.

    I want to hear Rua say "Smash that subscribe button" at the end of a video just once.

    Nice video. I don't believe those weapons will ever be released outside of bonanza tho. I think there was some interview with devs saying that those weapons were specifically created for Bonanza. I don't think SE even realize this weapon has such strong implication at NIN Enmity generation. I bet they have no idea about it.
    Edit: This is from interview with devs
    "The new unique rank 1 prizes are attractive.
    Matsui: This cost us dev resources, so hopefully they are attractive. We think it's more likely to get rank 1 this time around too.
    Fujito: We thought they can't be made too good as they're only receivable via 'chance'. But, still, we also introduced other content in the past that gives comparable items (Estuceon for Kupo Shield).
    Matsui: We made equipment that doesn't make it so the job cannot be played without it, just gives a boost."
    "Just give a boost" "can't be made too good" I think it clearly shows they don't know true potency of this katana and implication of hate generation with 6 Utsusemi targets. It also say they don't plan to let us get those weapons other way. If anything they will make events "that gives comparable items".

    I won rank 1 on my alt and chose this katana but have yet to use it. I wanted it to use on my main that has fully decked out nin but seems I need to gear my alt now to play around with it. Thanks for the video.

    Ninja is just *the* quintessential job of FFXI. I can't think of any other job that's had so much strategic impact on the game through the years. Every time it gets something new, the entire game shifts around it. It's fascinating, and I love it.

    Ninja should have a new JA that allows the next shadow spell to spread to party members, think of the Yagyu and the Yagrush for NIN, same as how WHM needs to use Divine Seal for AoE ~na spells.

    Dec 17th . I hope we win! New Mog Bonza pearls on sale I think the drawing for winners is Feb 11! tell everybody oh god do I want to win a weapon! I'd love even more to do some insane quest chain and test of might to team up with others to earn these as a server as a community.

    That would be absolutely amazing if such was a Reward for completion of the newest Missions. I had no interest in this wpn. 1 ) Cannot obtain - 2 ) Know nothing about it - 3 ) Never gonna get it
    If I could obtain such I would definitely go for it

    Hey Rua, Since you say its fine as off hand, wouldnt it be best paired with either Mythic (enm+50) or Aeonic (ENM+ per shadow) as main hand?
