They also used DRK as a dps example branching from GLA. I wouldn't hold my breath, they keep making these questionable decisions.

I would like to see SAM as a parry tank. I think a mechanic similar to grease lightning would work for this by keeping the % rate up and thus being able to successfully mitigate damage.

It was brought up at one of the FanFest 2014s that when they were deciding between adding DRK and adding SAM for Heavensward, they chose to add DRK as a tank and leave SAM for a DD later on so as not to add two two-handed sword jobs at the same time. Since the two have similar weapons, they want to make them different roles.

just gonna leave this here.....

who many times we need to repeat yoshi p say "samurai feels like a dps for him " not "samuri go to be a dps yes or yes" there is not confirmation at all, and 2 handed weapons? samurais can have a dual style too you know, is like if i say ninja is a oriental theme class and is dps, for that rule the next oriental class go to be tank or healer because you know to don't have 2 oriental classes in the same role.

yoshi can say misa, the entire devs team is how choose what class and what role go, samurai can be anything for now, don't say things how are not confirmed yet, je a samurai healer like sesshomaru in inuyasha XD.

what does this translate to be in final fantasy terms though? I can imagine a berserker, but pretty sure they don't wield thor like powers lol.

but yes I want a hammer job next. Seriously that would be great.
