IMHO Samurai sacrificed this kind of “flow” and burst nature in exchange for more small ogcd/buffs/spenders to use during a burst phase that was already more than efficient, which inevitably led to this moment.

At hearth Samurai is a big numbers job and I’d like to see the skills go in that direction.
