Samurai changes are unacceptable in the current iteration

like instead of increasing the next weaponskill by 50% it would make it 100% DH/crit

This would still hurt the synergy between SAM and crit boosting raid skills. The animation would stay though, so that's still miles better than what we got.

It would, but I'm kind of warming to the idea. Bringing the kenki cost of Kaiten back into play will give them the opportunity to buff Shinten damage again, and if balanced correctly that might actually allow for an alternate burst phase with a crit comp party. With Devilment, Battle Litany, and Chain Strategem up, a Shinten would be worth more potency than a crit/dh Kaiten. So during burst we would dump kenki into Shinten, and outside of burst continue to use Kaiten.

That sounds kind of interesting, but personally I'd just like to go back to 6.08.
