Keep overpower cone shaped!

Ah, the developers yet again believe most of us are too stupid to flush down the toilet.

Getting really tired of this shit. Has anyone ever really complained about Overpower needing a circle AoE? Or removing Kaiten? Starting to believe it's not the players that like to simplify this game.

Not gonna lie. I feel like maybe the huge influx of new players had a hand in it? It does seem like we picked up quite a few window-lickers over the course of the pandemic, and minority though they are, they were loud when it came to whining about SAM having ability bloat. That same minority whined loudly about Overpower. But uh... keyword here is minority. They threw two jobs under the bus to appease a vocal but very small minority.

And the kicker? SAM actually lost DPS on that deal. The free crits did not fully offset their losses. Furthermore, they became anti-synergistic with several job buffs in the same way WAR is because of bringing their own crits. I suppose they can at least commiserate while they sit on the same bench.

It could be. It's easy to see why.. they set the bar very low. Their standards are just as low. Instead of adjusting to the game they expect the game to be adjusted to their tastes, screw everyone that loved their jobs.

It's a shame really and I agree with you. I enjoyed playing Samurai with Kaiten, it wasn't my main by all means but I can see myself avoiding it now. Kaiten was a staple for SAM and just as iconic as Dark Arts if you will.
