1 DPS skill is proof of a class being a DPS. Okno, Cyan is one of the best DPS classes and is a Samurai, ok, thats one... Now, look for the samurai class all over.

In fact, Samurai class actually doesnt fit in neither, DPS or Tank roles, is more of a very balanced class, usually has more evasion than vitality, usually has good DPS but no one near pure DPS classes and also has support skills, even movement skills. And is really uncommon, actually really few characters in FFs fit in the samurai role since it is more a jack-of-all-trades class, Cyan and Auron are both "samurai" and they are very diferent.
