SAMURAI SHOWDOWN

[Kazrah]

The question I ask you is either as a Tank or DPS what can a Samurai offer to the table that is unique and fresh and not a slight alteration of other abilities in the game possessed by other classes?

This is the grand hurdle. This is really the biggest obstacle standing in the way of Samurai. For DPS, it's looking at and think of how it would be more than just a Monk or a Dragoon or a Ninja with a fresh coat of paint. For a tank, it would need its own style of damage mitigation, not just some greater emphasis on parry or dodge.

I'd still say no to Samurai, but at least it's nice knowing that the right question is being asked.
