SAMURAI Gearing Question! Please Help!

[DroFrehter]

I picked up the i330 SAM weapon today. I got the creation body piece for SAM a couple weeks ago but then saved up for the weapon. My question is; for armor, which should be my next creation piece? I currently have Genji Earring and Genji Ring, Genta Ring and Genta belt, and the crafted Wrist, and Neck. Should I go with head, hands, legs, or feet for the Lost Allagan stuff?

Legs... then head... then hands/feet...

Thank you! I wasn't sure about the legs because of SS, but after some research it appears that SS is worth it.

SS is a lot better on Samurai than 99% of people actually realize, though if you want to be exact, there are 2 ideal SS values you want to try to hit. Call these your skill speed "soft caps", but you want either roughly 1050 or 1400 skill speed. Reasons for this are complicated but basically amount to timing of Hagakure and Meikyo Shisui in an optimal rotation.

Thanks for the explanation. I think then for sure the legs will be my best bet to keep me right around the 1050 SS mark.
