Bad SAM?

[Acece]

Hey guys, I switched from tanking for 3 years to maining Sam over the last month. I really don't like job hopping and focus on my main in any game tbh. I love the job and am trying to be the best I can be with it but am always open to criticism and advice. I'm currently trying to augment as many pieces to 530 as possible before ew and I've noticed dancers and dragoons linking to other melee instead of me. I always have higanbana up on the boss, I pop third eye before every unavoidable aoe and follow up with Seigan, I always use Senei off cd and shisui as often as possible for more setsugekkas or double setsugekkas and always weave in shinten when i know it won't ruin a kaiten. I typically have 10-12k more hp then my dps counterparts in the 24 man's and am just wondering if people are linking to other dps to boost them or if I'm doing something wrong? I play on ps4 and would love a dps meter like details from wow so I could actually see what I'm dishing out in comparison.

The mistakes I see most with new sams make is drifting tsubame to much from raid buffs. With your gear set you might be drifting a lot with tsubsme because of how much skill speed you have, I would look at sks tiers on the balance discord. If you have the correct sks tier then look at how many fillers you have to do. I like having a single filler because you'll be using enpi as filler. Learning to loop helps a lot with newer sam's also.

Keeping uptime is the most important thing to do as a melee but samurai it's even more important because it can cause drift if you can't improvise.

I would check out the balance discord and ask specific questions there because they're a lot more knowledgeable there.
