I have to agree. Before this update, my Namikiris would do over 120k damage total when they both hit with crits and the first had the Kaisen buff. Now it doesn’t even reach 60k at times, which is half of what it did before. It wouldn’t be bad if they reduced the cooldown for it to 60, or better yet 45 seconds, but it’s still a full 120 seconds, which means it barely does more damage than both Setsugekkas (they also heavily nerfed the second Setsugekka as well by about 30% for no reason).

I really cannot see how buffing most of the other abilities by only 10 to 20 potency can make up for that. Even my Reaper, which doesn’t have as good of gear as my Samuai job does, does far more damage than it. Not to mention they nerfed other abilities too without warning.

So I have to switch to Reaper for my own sanity. I cannot deal with playing a job that was once really good as pure damage now dealing subpar damage. It infuriates me because I know I should be doing more damage, but I can’t because of the patch.
