Patch Notes 6.1

[RankaPC]

Hitting bigger dps numbers on Samurai doesn't mean much if the job itself isn't satisfying to play. Removing Kaiten is a really bad idea that lowers job satisfaction and complexity of the class. They need to either return it or replace the skill that also utilizes the kenki gauge in a meaningful way.

SAM won't even hit bigger DPS numbers. And they won't hit harder either; a guaranteed crit Midare Setsugekka or Ogi Namikiri will hit for LESS than a NON-crit Kaiten-buffed Midare or Ogi from before the patch, even in BiS gear.

You're right, I was looking at some of the potency increases. But yes, overall we will do less dps.

They're unlikely to reverse course on this decision, no matter how many threads are made.
