Keep Susamaru or reroll?
Susamaru is a stepping stone at best — Tamari demons, especially in a party with another Susamaru or Yahaba. Outside Tamari, reroll. Treat it as a holding roll — keep it while you bank spins, and upgrade the moment your build settles. The reroll guide has the full stopping rules.
How to roll the Susamaru clan
Susamaru sits in the Rare bracket: 12% of every spin — roughly 8 spins per Rare on average, coin-flip at 6. Codes are the fastest spin source, with levelling milestones and quest rewards behind them. Rare rolls come around often enough that patience alone will find you one. V0.18's reroll change (skill-tree progress survives) removes the last reason to delay the swap.
Other Rare clans
Building around Susamaru
Susamaru is a party-slot clan: the Party Buff (+10% Evil Art and Additional Damage) only activates beside a Yahaba or Susamaru, so its value is group planning, not solo play.
What Susamaru plays like in real fights
Tier letters describe value; fights describe feel. With Susamaru equipped, nothing appears in your rotation at all: the clan works through stats that are always on, and you feel it in how often you survive exchanges rather than in any input. Underneath, 2 passives (Party Buff, Tamari Regen) quietly shape every trade.Net effect: tamari demons, especially in a party with another Susamaru or Yahaba. Outside Tamari, reroll. A practical self-test — run a few fights, then imagine the clan unequipped; whichever moments you miss its inputs or stats are exactly where Susamaru pays its rent.
Susamaru against the meta
In the V0.2-era meta, Susamaru loses meta share to options that overlap its niche with heavier stats — the roll is better spent elsewhere.} Poison teams (Kocho, Iguro, Insect builds) farm this kit unless a status-immunity passive is on the card. Counter-heavy duelists (Soyama, Shockwave users) feast on predictable openers — with no active kit, spacing is the only defense. And zone-control demons (Shabana) dictate terms to passive-only kits — positioning is the whole counterplay.
Susamaru vs every other Rare clan
| Clan | Tier | Kit shape | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Susamaru (this page) | C | 2 passives, no skills | Tamari demons, especially in a party with another Susamaru or Yahaba. Outside Tamari, reroll. |
| Urokodaki | A | 5 passives, no skills | The strongest Rare clan by consensus — an easy Water Breathing pick: passive Water damage and stamina savings with nothing to activate, plus strong defence if you wear a mask. Stop rerolling if you get this and plan to play Water. |
| Sabito | B | 1 skills + 2 passives | Water Breathing and Katana builds; the dash and sword damage mode is unusually strong for a Rare — many players keep it over mismatched Mythic rolls. |
| Makomo | B | 1 skills + 1 passives | Defensive Water Breathing and Katana builds that block a lot; the Water bonus needs a Sabito or Makomo in your party, so it shines in duo play. |
| Yahaba | C | 1 skills + 2 passives | Arrow demons, especially in a party with another Yahaba or Susamaru — the party buff is the only reason it stays on the board. |
Reading the table: kit shape predicts playstyle before stats do — active-skill clans spike when pressed, passive-only clans pay out every second. Between two passive-only clans serving the same build, the stat line above is the whole decision — there is no activation skill to tilt the comparison.

How Susamaru compares in its bracket
Inside the Rare bracket, Urokodaki is the consensus catch, Sabito and Makomo serve Water duos, and Yahaba or Susamaru only matter to demon parties — a build-matched Rare legitimately beats a mismatched Mythic. Susamaru's identity here is its passive stack. The style-specific damage factors multiply every hit of your main kit, which is why a matching roll outranks generic power from any rarity.
