I'd generally prefer a synergistic team so that everyone can perform at their peak rather than sucking the {Full Thrust} of an arguably poorly designed class because they require everyone else to cater to/gimp themselves so THEY can do their best.

I just hate the katana fantasy. MUH GLORIOUS NIPPON STEEL triggers me oh so greatly. Katana more impactful than a GREAT AXE or GREAT SWORD? Stop it. Faster? By all means. But this stupid cut through anything meme makes me so anger as a immersion player.
