Have you ever played SAM past reading official ff14 SAM job guide? I guess no? Because at this point i dont know what to say about "i know everything, remove kaiten!!!!!!!!" .... In a similar way i can propose Reaper changes: positionals removed - gibbet and gallows merged into 1 ability, also i dont like Shadow of death since there is no "thought process" in using that ability just gcd spending - remove it aswell and adjust potencies, also i dont like Blood Stalk tied to soul gauge, there is no "thought process" of getting 50 gauge and using this ability .....

Devs just as usual did not tested things like it was at Endwalker start, all players are just beta testers so it led to your reaper being broken because many others were behind. Now they just destroy SAM for no reason or maybe they want more reaper players?

Lets remove kaiten then whats the point of having an entire gauge system called "kenki" ? I will just repeat the same logic that you post here in forums: "there is no thought process" of keeping 25 kenki for Senei, we can remove kenki cost from this ability, no one will notice. Even without that we can clearly see that there is no point of having kenki gauge and Shinten tied to it. If we remove kenki and just put Shinten on some odd cd with charges tied to sks aswell it will be SAME.

Both of SAM changes are terrible, multiple ways to free 1 button slot (who asked for this even?) but lets remove ability that makes SAM gauge system existence very questionable, 100% crit on 2 min abilities literally CONTRADICTS with the way how classes with crit buffs work making SAM terrible choice to be with in party....
