Honestly, the inconsistencies make up for part of the fun. I've been playing a bit of Ninja in DSR and we've been trying to push Hyosho Crit/Directs as far as possible. It's FUN to see that thing hit like a wet noodle one one pull and cause so much damage the group needs to hold DPS on the other. The damage you do noticeably makes a difference, rather than just being a baseline value. It's amazing. All the while not making the difference between killing a boss or not.

Removing Kaiten and poolnoodle damage has taken that fun from Samurai.
