How to get The Yamato Mythical weapon in Type Soul

Choosing different races, styles, moves, and weapons can sometimes be overwhelming. That's why I was eager to get my hands on arguably the best Mythical universal weapon in Type Soul. Without further ado, here's how to get the Yamato sword in Type Soul.

Where to get The Yamato Mythical in Type Soul

You can get the Yamato weapon via Clan Wars, where you'll see it as a dimensional shard. You can also use Type Soul trading to acquire it if there's a player offering it. Keep in mind that although everyone can use this sword, critical attacks differ depending on which race is using it. You may want to learn more about crits for each race before investing in one.

How The Yamato crits work for each race in Type Soul

While each race gets the same M1 attack (that's faster than Dagger!) from Yamato, special attacks (crits) are different.

• Arrancar crit will hit enemies once and knock them far away, which is a good tactical maneuver, especially if you want to create a distance between you and your opponent. You should definitely combine the Yamato with some of the best Arrancar builds in Type Soul.

• Soulreaper crit deals multiple quick attacks, knocking the enemy down with the last blow. In Bankai, the attack stays the same.

• Quincy crit deals damage around you but can easily be blocked. While it can be useful in some situations, it's not as effective in one-on-one combat. Developers have recognized that this version is the weakest, so they buffed its attack soon after the initial release. But even with better damage output, it's still the worst option of three.

How to equip The Yamato Mythical weapon in Type Soul

No matter what race you choose, to use the Yamato weapon, you need to invest 50 points in Speed. I recommend you test combining its attack with other skills, as some that sound good in theory don't do well. The main reason is the attack animation, which prevents you from doing fast combos. That's maybe on purpose to avoid having the Yamato being too dominant.
