@Naoki Yoshida-> Make Samurai a Tank class!

[Madepossible]

So to make it fair, it would be nice to see an Asian class being a Tank. I mean, we have Ninja who takes the role of a DPS, would be nice to see Samurai added to the Tank tier list in 4.0, thoughts? I mean to be fair, we got a lot of DPS classes as it is and Red Mage is 99% confirmed if you notice the obvious hints of Naoki Yoshida so another DPS class.. Naoki Yoshida, ik you listen to the community so hope you consider Samurai becoming a Tank class!

I'd ask for it to not be a tank. The 2-handed sword wielding class is already a tank, there really doesn't need to be a second one. There's not even a sword wielding DPS class yet.

If they are implementing Samurai with the next expansion, the job class is already set. Please look forward to the reveal.

Visions of SAM wearing this make me cringe. Besides, SAM would make the perfect DPS to share medium weight Maiming gear with DRG.

oh god I can already see it if Samurai is added as DPS everyone will switch to it
>all fate parties,raid parties and trial parties will all be samurai dps.
>No queues will ever pop because everyone will be sitting in dps que as samurai
>Idyllshire will have samurai as far as the eye can see,all future content wont be completed due to the lack of tanks and healers because Samurai.
>Adding in new classes wont matter because Samurai


/joke
Lets just hope 4.0 tank job can match the Samurai hype

It's too late to change it now, unless you want the expansion delayed.

I know that I'm not the only one that wants Samurai as a TANK class, there are many people out there that prefer the tank class. If red mage is gonna be DPS, DPS has two sword wielding classes: Ninja and Red Mage so your argument is invalid. Why does the ques take long for DPS? Because tanking is not the favorite role while queuing as a Tank is instant que in duty finder plus bonus. Mr. Yoshida I can wait a few extra months for samurai If it will be a tank class. Monk already is excluded from most raids, why making them even more excluded with adding more classes to the DPS tier? All I want is fairness, give us an Asian oriented Tank Class, DPS already has 2: Ninja and Monk. In an interview you mentioned the samurai that might go Tank, may be a Shogun type: don't do that either, make it an over the edge type of offensive tank class like Warrior. This will also balance out the tank tier list: PLD/DRK= Main Tank WAR/Samurai= Off Tank! (ಠ o ಠ)¤=[]:::::>

As far as I know the community wants SAM not to be a tank. It's okay to say that's what you want and what you feel is right but speaking for the community like that as if the majority wants tank SAM is simply not the truth.
