Which guardian spirit is yo best bud

I've got upwards of 300 hours in this game and I'm still trying different spirits to find one I'm most comfortable with. Sometimes I'll use one to help my build but those never last long because gear gets out leveled constantly.

my favorite general purpose spirits are:

Suzaku! +60% critical yokai shift, -8% dmg from yokai

Isanagami! i ran this spirit for a long time just to get more tea utensils, the other buffs are all quite nice aswell

Atlas bear! feels a little weak in late game but he was pretty chill

Hiyokucho! my first build spirit, i had a TON of melee damage while critical

Honorable mention: Okuri-Inu, its suzaku but weaker and avalible earlier Ame-no-Mitori, my first spirit, the running speed is nice but having the feral dodge from the start really helped me learn fast.

Current pick: (drumroll) Hyobishin! cool ass cat who dispells ailments on strong attacks. kinda a one trick poney but it's very noticeable and helpful in a scrap
