To the poster above, they're called Genji Gloves, not Masamune gauntlets. Also, to steal different items from Gilgamesh, just steal after every scene where Gilgamesh does something, like taunt you or brandish a new sword. Try and steal all the genji equipment as it's not difficult; it's your only chance to acquire them. To have a much easier time with Gilgamesh, fight him when your character levels are not divisible by 2 and 3; basically have it at a prime number like 53, 59, 61, 67, 71 etc. This is because Gilgamesh frequently casts the status spells Lvl 2 Sleep, Lvl 3 Disable and Lvl 4 Break. Being immune to their effects basically means he's just wasting time casting while you're physically pounding on his sorry ass. And if you're any sane, set your gambits to attack the lowest lvl or lowest max hp enemy so you take out Endiku the hound first. His crushing fangs can randomly instantly kill a hero and he's just a pesky pain in the ass. Gilgamesh will be casting spells nearly half the time, so he's not really a worry until you take out Endiku. Gilgamesh will start comboing a bunch when low hp however. Before that happens, he'll probably put up Perfect Defense, which makes him temporarily immune to both physical and magical damage. And yes, remember to continue stealing from him after each mini cutscene, not including the times when he does a special attack on you.
And yes, Masamune is a really good with genji gloves. In fact it pumps out more dmg than Zodiac Spear at high levels when combos are taken into account, but not quite as good as the Wyrmhero Blade :3. Can't beat its 130 attack rating and a 80% combo rate compared to Masamune's 93 Attack and 40% combo. Bad thing about the Wyrmhero Blade is that you have to beat Yiazmat and Omega Mk II, the two toughest monsters in the game, to get the loot to make it... Also the Wyrmhero Blade IS SLOOOOW as hell, being more than twice as slow as a gun. It's nearly useless if you don't have the hero using it hasted AND berserked. Really, getting it is just for fun and accomplishment's sake. There aren't any monsters that you can't take down in a few hits out there if you already beat Yiazmat, so the blade is really just useless by the time you get it. Always something nice to brag about though XD
Jam it back in, in the dark.
