Thoughts of Samurai Changes

[Kaedys]

I disagree, using enpi for a filler is great when sam needs to disengage from the boss without losing uptime. It's also not breaking combos in endwalker so its even better, it also looks sick as hell when you time it properly.

Sure, it's a great mechanic for offsetting melee downtime. What I don't want to see is it being used in the normal rotation. And unless it gets nerfed, that's what's going to happen, because Yaten + Enhanced Enpi is higher DPS per GCD than the average in our 3x Sen -> Midare sequence.

AoE Yukikaze does higher potency than other 2, just FYI.
So if you've got both buffs already then you're gonna need to do the AoE Yukikaze anyway.
but personally, I would prefer more kenki generate than higher potency so we can use more kyuten.

I mean, it does 10 potency more, every other GCD. Is it worth using with current tuning? Sure, why not. The concern is more that there seems to be little reason for it to have been implemented in the first place. We basically never need more than 2 Sen in AoE anyway, since we want to use Tenka instead of Midare. So being able to generate the Setsu Sen in AoE is a bit...well, superfluous. It's a button just for the sake of having a button, it doesn't really enhance our AoE rotation in any meaningful way. It's a good example of SE implementing an ability not because the job has a meaningful rotational gap, but simply because they wanted to hit some arbitrary threshold of number of buttons, and had removed two others (the Third Eye combos).
