If I wanted to play lvl 52 Samurai, I would just go do that instead of dealing with this awful band-aid solution to fix Sam's crit variance. If Yoshi P and the team spent a long time on this like they claimed, then I would be frankly embarrassed to be so out of touch with what a large portion of their players want out of the job.

The changes to SAM have overall been a big failure and I'm pretty unhappy with most everything Square has done in 6.1. The one lone bright spot being Enpi not using Meikyo stacks, keep that and throw the rest out.
