So... that spiderman shirt... (new job tease)

Ugh... I really, really don't want Samurai. I just don't see how it will add anything unique or different to the game. A sword-wielding tank. Woohoo.

There were so many other options for a UNIQUE class. Think of a beast master tank, where the pet is the tank (like a glorified titan Egi that works), blue mage has to be hit by abilities to learn them hence fitting a tank role, a dancer that uses tp to heal instead of mp, etc...

I just don't see how Samurai can add anything new tactics wise at all. Dark Knight uses MP and that was the major thing there. Samurai will use a sword and TP like two of the tanks we already have. Boring.

If it would even be a tank at all, could be a DPS. Then again in XI, SAMs had the ability to greatly increase their evasion and had the highest parry skill in the game. This could be the style they would have if tank here, Third Eye being the tank stance.

I doubt they'd release two dps classes for the sake of queues, so I'm definitely inclined to say it would be a tank. Parry/Evasion doesn't really sound like an interesting 'feature' to me, as parry is pretty irrelevant in game anyway. It'd be similar to adding a water mage that uses water magic in a game where there are no elemental resistances.
