I've personally struggled to get this marker to work well with the stock paint, and I've given multiple markers a large amount of time to break in and get better. I've never been able to get through my 4 letter tag without it going dry, even if I start the first letter with a droplet hanging off of the nib. If you look at the other reviews, I seem to be in the minority with this problem.
These really start to shine for me when you mix in some pilot ink or magic ink. It thins the ink out, giving it the flow it needs, while adding a bit to the opacity. Definitely a great marker after this little mod. You have to take the nib out, pour ink into the nib hole, then take a little needle or chopstick and depress the valve a few times to get it to flow back into the body. It usually takes a few times to achieve the desired color. If the marker runs empty, you can do this same process to refill it with whatever ink you want.
In stock form, I give it 3/5, but you can get it to 4/5 with this little mod.
