Samurai the next tank XD

[SpookyGhost]

Would prefer if we got another tank that didn't just use some type of sword tbh.

I don't really care what role it is as long as its a primary TP management job. Actual TP management and regens, not just press invigorate and be done.

I definitely wouldn't want another great sword tanking class. Samurai would be baller as a dps job, though.

[Torunya]

As much as I would love Samurai as a tank job, (Log Horizon anyone?) we already have 2 tank jobs that utilize swords. And I would rather get a dps job that actually uses swords as well.

Samurai is going to be a DPS class. I can't find where they discussed it directly right now, but it was in a live letter or an interview at one point.
.

I also remember reading that.

I don't know if this has been mentioned since I haven't read through the posts, so bare with me. I would love it if the Samarai was a tank, specifically, a 'Counter' tank. I means we have PLD as a mitigation tank, WAR as a damage tank and DRK as a PArry tank, so a tank that can return damage dealt to them would be kinda neat.

It could work by capping the countered damage to a certain maximum number and having it scale with the tanks vit.

It was

If it was a tank, though, I'd like something like mitigate+counter kind of tank. Several combos that put you in a counter stance for a few seconds, one for physical skill, one for magical skill, one for simple auto-attacks (Probably the enmity combo).
And you have to maintain these stances to keep your mitigation, while anticipating the stance you needed few GCD prior.

I think we both like the Samurai from Bravely

To be fair all the Job Classes in BDFF work as intended and make sense as well.

BD's dark knight is amazing as well. So many toys revolving around one's HP, as it has always been.

+1 to this.

A samurai tank that specializes in counter damage like the Swordmaster/Samurai in BD would be really fun.
