    I wasn't talking down or saying you were incapable, either way. I apologize if it came off that way, Not trying to put down anybody.

    I was just saying since you don't do it, you won't see how minuscule the damage is to your over all dps over the course of a fight compared to a Dungeon Boss Fight or 24man Boss, since Savage Fights and EX primals are longer than other things and have a bunch of stuff that have downtime and uptime.

    I wasn't assuming because I checked so I know what you had clear...at least uploaded anyway.

    But Sorry again, wasn't trying to put you down or anything.
    I know you checked my profile, which is fine, I'm not mad at that. The assumptions were some of the other things directed at me in the post you made. Or at least, regardless of your disclaimer, came off that way.

    It's human nature, I've accepted that and don't really expect it to change.

    However, you saying I don't care about my DPS struck a nerve pretty hard, seeing as I do in fact pride myself on it. I'm just not mad at Shoha.

    So one tick of meditate isn't a waste, please explain your view. I was coming from more of a, if I got downtime in a fight where I could have gotten more meditate stacks by being attentive, I wasted meditate.. or "not take advantage of" would be a better phrasing what I meant.

    Because one tick of meditate gives you 10 kenki; thats two GCD's from haza to shifu or jinpu, making you able to give out an extra shinten or even seigan faster than you would which would be a gain. Shinten is a 300, now 320 pot attack.



    If shoha first tick was at at least 200 pot then it would actually be a bit better but it would make samurai maximize very clunky due to the skill being based on server tick.

    Its clear SE only wants this skill to be used only during downtime, which is why the first stack is 50. They don't want people using meditate in the middle of their GCD because Meditate I believe stops auto attack which is pretty big if you keep missing your auto's for people keep trying to fish for the first tick.

    You might say why people would try to use meditate in the middle of your GCD anyway and just wait until there is downtime? Well reason is, if you know the fight and you know Downtime isn't for another 2 mins of the fight. Why hold it? it'll be a dps lost if you did. Your meditate will be up by then again.

    But anyway, the 10 kenki gained from meditate is little sure but any type of kenki gain is a dps increase.
