Thread: Samurai 5.0 changes, feedback/suggestions

I don't think we can safely say if it does or does not do enough damage yet. With that said, I mostly agree with what you are saying.

Shoha is total garbage and fairly unnecessary imo. If we can target something, we're gonna be hitting it unless mechanics force us not to. So having that as the big level 80 skill is just bad unless they are putting a lot more downtime into fights. Which doesn't feel good either.

I totally agree about seigan. It is a net dps gain, but the amount you get from correctly doing it is not noticeable at all. So it's mostly just wasted optimization potential. And speaking of optimization, I'm not really seeing anywhere to do some big brain optimizing on the job. About all that's gonna separate average samurai players from great ones will be how well players work with party buffs. But that's mostly how the job already functioned on its release. So I mostly would just like to see another way to get Shoha procs. Actually, they could knock out both my complaints and have using seigan give meditate procs for shoha. Just depends on what that would do to dps balancing. But something like that would be VERY welcome from me.

Actually, that'd be a lot of potency for getting hit. But I wouldn't mind them doubling down on optimization.
