Compiled SAM threads against 6.1 changes / Kaiten removal

I'm trying Black Mage to see if explodiness will satisfy some deep evil part of me, but I'm not optimistic that I'll ever find something as fun as samurai was.

Is it pathetic that I feel pangs of sadness when I equip my samurai gearset? I really shouldn't let it affect me like that XD

I just took my bunny back to do the L80 job quest for Sam, and even though you don't DO anything, it made me inexplicably sad. I'd done it back in ShB on her, and it meant something (he, I started in End)

it's just sad now. It's just - hitting buttons, in the most 'meh' fashion imaginable.

I remember when they announced Kaiten was being removed I was so confused at the outcry and thought people were overreacting, like I empathised (healer main) with button removal but I couldn’t see why it was like the end of the world, then I got around to levelling SAM from level 80 to 90 and oh my god I cannot believe that 2 changes like Kaiten and the auto crit could so thoroughly ruin a job that even I could feel how bad it was just casually using it in a dungeon with no intention of ever maining it

This might just be the record for least number of changes that completely destroyed a job

THREE changes. Tenka Goken is weak AND casts standing next to a tank in dungeons to maximize targets hit. Why is it a circle now? I'm so annoyed.

Another Youtube Video by " Lucy Pyre ", loving the comedy... and yet it rings so true

Face the facts people. You and I both know that this is all one big ploy to funnel all of the playerbase into Black Mage.

It's nearly worked. I've considered it at least once an xpac so far since joining, but playing it in the early dungeons puts me to sleep.

I'm in the same boat as xAFROx. Playing MNK/DRG for now, but my BLM mysteriously increased to level 69 all of a sudden... hm...

Lol, mine is still lvl 24 or something pathetic

One more week, my kaitenless allies

Lucy's good civ; nice to see all these YTers such as her and Misshapen Chair bringing attention to this predicament.
