He is good (not great) in 9tails. If you SB Ninja God, he is usable in ranked and GNW. He might work a little in arena.

For him to became quite strong again, you'd need to wait for his mutations, which came more or less 3 months ago in CN (ETA probably 2 yrs for us).

Do I have to make him up to 4 stars to give him books or he just needs to be 3 stars ?

Hashirama should be skill-breakable at 3 stars. Similar to Tobirama.

I can confirm that he only needs to be 3 star to use the books on him. But, the books have to actually show up for sale in an event again to do that. It has been at least 2 months since they last showed up.

For 9-tails hes probably the best barrier ninja for the standard Konoha blitz setup, even more so with fire main since his mystery and chase are pure nin. He himself does not a lot of damage, but from my experience with stacked main you be placing top 10 or top 3 no problem if your in the same bp range.

I found that using shisui instead of hashirama in the normal 9tails lineup (fire main, iruka, WB asuma) will net me around 500k more damage, going from 7-7.5kk dmg with hashi to 7.5-8kk dmg with shisui each run.

Since we are doing only 4 rounds before retreating, the auto barrier will cover 75% of the fight, without losing 2 autos in turn 1 and 4. Also, thanks to asuma, you can run the team full auto.

dunno does people use him in normal teams i was super lucky i got him in mission box general 80x2 last year i got some frags from home(bond nijas) and events
so i max skillbook him :P
i use him always in fox

works as charm xD even if i dont spend CP in fox i get top 5-6 ranks...
i am w8ing him to get more books like on china then i will use him in team :D

The main thing is with the Hashi your main is getting the getting even more buffs, while shisui benefits from the mains buff as well, so if all ninja are ~ bp the shisui is better, however if your main 50%+ stronger than the Hashi would end up being better. Its mostly where your at in the game, for me this is doing 30m to the fox where the rest only get around 20 with second normally going to the other Hashi user with far less bp.

He is very useful in certain teams .. IF you skillbreak him , his passive cannot get removed from antibuffers .. there are some deadly teams with him although its pay to play teams .. Kyuubi 4* - Hashirama - killer bee - wind main full buffed can be deadly enough..

lol.Yeah.A few days ago,i sold my runes for King of Hell which dropped my main team from 99k power,down to 90 or 93k power.A day or 2 after that,i was doing Matsuri and ended up fight a wind main main that had over 130k power.Winner?Me with my hokage minato,iruka,hashirama(no skillbooks),fire main,with king of hell.

HI - can you pls give me the formation ? I would like to try it sometime

he is very useable in 9tails lineup and for db or gnw lineup for your team buff

only for nine tails he are the best for sure , but not so good in PvP without his BT , in GNW he good like support ninja .
