[Dev Request] Samurai Armor in Kugane

[Rangar]

I know YoshiP wanted SAM in this game to be more Ronin style, with cloth armor; but in the end, would it really be so bad to actually give us more authentic SAM armor?

Kind of, actually. You have to consider that apart from artifact armor, you share your gear with monk, and wearing heavy armor isn't in-line with that job. It's the downside to shared gear is that you don't get as much unique identity in appearance on the gear you can equip. If they were to add in the armor requested, you're likely to either get it as level 1 items anyone can wear (which I'm not opposed to, I'm always in favor of more options) or as a future relic armor set.

Japanese monks wore Samurai armor too. Shared armor is no excuse, because there's no problem with both classes getting to share a decent looking set of Samurai armor.

It could always be SAM only, just like the relic armor and the starter gearset
