SAMURAI SHOWDOWN

[Krissey]

You really gotta work on your reading comprehension man. Go back and look at the very first post in this thread and you'll see that I want a Samurai DPS and Tank.

I mean I understand. My reading comprehension is above average. I'm just being realistic. There's only going to be one Samurai. It's only going to have one role. Based on common portrayal it makes more sense for it to kill things with it's Katana than to be a tank soaking hits. Whether it is a tank, a DPS, a healer, or never comes out doesn't matter to me. I'm more than happy with Dragoon, Warrior, Astrologian etc... I play and enjoy every role. Just basing it off the general "conception" of the Samurai if you asked a common MMO player "Based on Anime, TV, and other portrayals does it make more sense for a Samurai to be DPS or Tank" they would probably answer DPS.

Matter of fact if you want my "real" take on it: I would rather not get Samurai at all. I would prefer more magic users. I would prefer other jobs in general. When I think of Final Fantasy the samurai job does not immediately come to mind.
