Thread: Samurai 5.0 Changes

Personally Im gonna miss Hagakure :/

Saying that is a regressing to the lvl 60 rotation is an overstatement, its more like 50... may as well just delete Kaiten altogether and up the potencies of Iaijustsus accordingly I guess?

I think I will still play SAM, but it won't be the same...
To me it was fun to have a tempo rotation of Hagakure > Midare > Hagakure > Midare with some Higanbana in between.
Now its going to be Midare everywhere... no seriously, why bother having shifu, jinpu, or the others? Just make it all Midare :/

It was fun to watch on the Hagakure timer, if it was at 6 when you got the 3rd sen, you shouldn't Midare, holding off did pay off...
Also if Guren was at 20 on the timer, you had to hold off on the Shinten spam for the sake of building up kenki for it...
Now? Well... Ikishoten will be there whenever Senei needs it and since Senei takes 50 kenki away in a swift second its like having nothing...

I dunno, I kinda loved the odd mixture between a fast hitter and occasional strong nuker that SAM is right now.

I would have liked a skill that let just go flashing to the other side of the enemy and put the sword slowly in its scabbard...
Something like:


As for Shoha, yea... the potencies for the requirements are so underwhelmingly disappointing (as much as I hate saying that word).
Seigan? I love it. Still find it odd that it costs Kenki when it already costs a counter. But I love counters over all, and Seigan IS a counter, so I love Seigan.

Will see how the job plays on the expansion however...
