Thread: 6.1 Samurai

Nice attempt at comparison, but we both know that’s not the case. While there isn’t much thought to those abilities either, at least they do something.

The argument is that Samurai has button bloat. Of all the abilities to remove, Kaiten is one that does nothing other than buff a weapon skill, of which the only weapon skills that it is used for are IAI skills. It makes complete sense for them to remove the ability and roll the potency into the skills that it is solely used for.

You can think it requires thought all you want. I disagree. It’s flashy. That’s about it.

If they change the meta the PFers will follow. You’re right that it won’t really affect anything, but that hasn’t stopped the ignorant masses who only look at rDPS yet.

I’m so tired of hearing this argument. Every combo chain gives you enough kenki for a Kaiten. Every. single. one. Maybe stop using kenki as soon as you hear the sound of an ability being activated.

What do they do? Let you spend Kenki? Kaiten was already doing that. Give you more oGCDs to hit? Kaiten did that too. You could remove any of the skills I mentioned just like Kaiten and nothing would change with SAM's rotation.

Don’t play coy. I’ve already gone over this. I’m not doing it again I get it, you want a flashy animation because it’s “flavor.” All you got is that.

You're being kind of cringe bro

You're just willfully ignoring points made in this post now and spamming a minority opinion thusfar.

Something tells me you are going to go over this again... like you have for 5+ comments now. Thanks for the post engagement, anyway.

I’ve ignored no points. I’ve made my point. Don’t worry, I’m not going to go over anything again. People want to keep Kaiten cause they like the animation, ultimately. All the other arguments are weak. They’re just hoping to whine about it loud enough so that the devs change their mind.

How do you know if you are the majority? Some people screeching on the forums? That says nothing. Good try at appealing to the masses.
