    Just wanted to ask a couple things

    About a few different things so please bare with me.
    1. I really am liking Samurai I feel like it's a great class my only problem is am I doing is rotations right? I usually go and get the 3 Marks forgot what theyre called and then I unlesh his massive attack. I will use that move as well to do it quicker. But is that pretty much the gist of it besides that aoe dmg for large groups. I don't really use the gauge feature because it's not that useful except weaponskill 1.
    2. As a WHM main do you guys be serious now use your lillies at all? I pretty much forget about it just when I see it i'll use it but it doesn't help. Only new move I use is Thin Air which is amazing. But thats it no hype.

    Maybe im the only 1 who thinks like that as a whm main

    With the SAM question: it's situaltional how many seals you want. If it's a group pull using it with 2 for the cone is good and bosses/high health foes can also use the 1 seal for the DoT. If you want to hit like a train withthe 3 seals use the ability that grants an aditional 50% power before you use it. I've crit for over 20K at level 64 with that combo.

    Posts I've read on readdit indicate that the +50% bonus on the next weaponskill actually applies to the entire duration of the dot on the single sen Iaijutsu.



    Firstly, asking these types of questions would probably be better the their respective role subforum.
    You're likely to get more knowledgeable people answering, and it won't get buried as fast.



    I've only gotten to 54 myself, but I've been experimenting while playing with it...
    I like popping the use any skill out of combo
    followed by the 2 buff skills and slashing resist down.
    That'll give you the attack speed buff, damage buff, put slashing resist down on the enemy and give you 1 sen for the dot Iaijutsu.

    That dot has a 60 second duration, it lasts a long while.
    I then typically go through my combos, keeping the buffs and debuffs up while doing the 3 sen iaijutsu when I can.

    Do note, Iaijutsu does not cancel your combos.
    So you can to 1 or 2 steps in the combo and use Iaijutsu to use up your sen and then get another back.
