SAM out classing all other DPS

[Ryaz]

Slashing isn't relly utility. It's synergy. All it does is increase dps potential which is our main role. Utility would be if Sam, as a DPS class, could raise allies, lower enemy damage to make tanking easier, restore hp/mp, etc. You can balance synergy abilities much easier than you can utility as all dps synergy abilities do is add more damage which can be figured our and balanced with some math. It's much harder to balance abilities like Raise, because they add an abstract value to the team.
