I feel like Yoshida listen more the eastern community than the western community. So this thread is a rest of time to be honest with you.

Yeap and other things. The main reason I say this is because they get alot more community devs leaving comments and replying back to their threads than what we do. Damn the community never leave a comment in a threads and if they do its like a very rare occasion.

I wouldn't want samurai a tank.

Cousin said leave it as a DPS like FFXI that they already ruined dark knight with being a tank and taking the scythe away.

SAM in FFXI had the makings of a tank but terrible mechanics that didn't allow it to actually do so.

Before the shift into Store TP and 5-hit builds, SAM had access to a good number of armor PLD and WAR could wear, on top of having the highest parry rating out of all jobs. What prevented it from tanking is that parry rating alone can't be used as a mitigation model (like how ARR launch WAR was all drains and that didn't work at all), defense scaling was terrible combined with what people were hunting and fighting (mobs that severely outleveled them because 200 exp/kill). Hasso/Seigan was a sort of compromise, but that didn't really push SAM into anything other than more damage because of how beneficial Hasso is for damage (as opposed to Seigan, which entirely relied on Third Eye being active).

Greatsword was skill ranked A- for Dark Knight in XI, they could use both.
