And more importantly: five runes and five insignias. Yes, it costs a salvage use to get them off, but that's worth the saved storage space, I think.
Ontopic: Crit Barrage is probably the best you're going to get. Luckily, there aren't any story missions that require Anton or Zenmai, so I'd probably just not use them.

Testing how quickly you can drain a Hero Monk's energy.
Providing a MM with a headstart.

Moebius/DB is probably the best build for them. Keep attack skills simple, I like to just use three: Golden Phoenix Strike, Death Blossom, and Moebius Strike. Any more and heroes get confused and do stupid stuff like Moebius Strike > Critical Strike > Death Blossom. Zenmai does around 50 DPS with that; not optimal, yea, but a lot better than critical barrage and other garbage.

I like the Golden Fox -> Golden Fang -> Blossom -> Moebius, similar deal. Add critical eye, some other random enchantment, and a run buff (maybe rush). Then add things like orders, barbs, strength of honor, etc. Cuts through destroyers like butter with the title on, since she's spamming skills constantly and has mostly armor-ignoring damage.
Always be careful with anything remotely conditional. They seem hesitant to use wild strike on someone not in a stance, for example. You can throw these skills on as extras, but they shouldn't be part of the primary combo.
Edit: also, may want to look into scythe assassins. 80% crit is nice damage. Just load them up with 3/4th attack skills.

I use Zenmai as a smiting assacaster for undead areas.
But really, that's only because I have my monks geared solely for healing and protection, and all of my other casters are doing usefull things (MM or nukes).
Zenmai just gets the dirty jobs that aren't important enough for my other heros. But she is an assassin, so she should understand.
