How is SAM not going to be bonkers OP in non raid content?

I seriously laughed at this.

Though it's not quite that bad, since kaiten is supposedly adding another 360 potency for a potency total of 1080 and not making it 1800 potency. The theory crafting around Sam is already on reddit. Basically only using this combo when you can pair these two and meikyo sushui? or it might be better to convert your sens to kenshin and spam 3 of the 300 potency oGCD that costs 25 kenki since you don't loose a GCD. It's all still being figured out.

Just saying, so no offense if you all already knew this.

But the guy above me is right. Things are balanced around raid content.

I feel that that would be good when you have a lot of kinky. At least according to my understanding, it costs less resources to acquire a +360 pot buff, rather than 25 for a 300, but I'm not a theory crafter by trade~

This has a pretty good breakdown. Sam won't be light years ahead, maybe 10~15% above drg/mnk.

If it wasn't 10-15% with as little raid utility as it possesses, would you bring one over a mnk/drg/None?

Probably not, because it is not far enough ahead to warrant the lack of synergy.

Realistically, probably 5-10% ahead in actual application.

I really enjoy seeing how people literally invent these numbers, there are no simulations or anything like that, the final numbers have not yet come out, but people are inventing what they want.

These numbers, 5%, 10%, 15% are 100% fake...

Fair enough, everyone likes assigning numbers based on hypotheticals.
