Thread: 6.1 Samurai

Kaiten adds a thought process to kenki management, otherwise without it we'll just spam Shinten between every odd gcd and forget about it like Fan Dance III on Dancer.
(If you press Fan Dance 1 or 2 immediately press 3 after to double weave the ability even if it didn't proc, it's just muscle memory and offers no downsides to not getting into the habit)
YOU NEED enough Kenki to buff your necessary weaponskills, as I've been in places where I've spent too much on Shinten and didn't have enough to spend on a Kaiten for my Iaijutsu, suffering as a result of not thinking enough about my usage.
That's already more thought than choosing between Shoha 1 or 2, or either Hissatu ability because there is or is not more than 1 target.

You could even turn off your kenki bar all together as the Hissatu abilities get enough kenki for use from Ishikoten, an abilitiy that already lines up and can kind of be used in the same gcd if you double weave it
Please keep Kaiten! Otherwise this change could literally mean I don't have to keep track of kenki on screeen anymore LOL (aside from shoha being attached to the bar but the icon for shoha would just light up at 3 charges ANYWAY)
