SAM is dead

[Xaphire]

Kaiten wasn't a good button, but it did have a cool animation and big number fun.

While I miss the animation, it wasn't great design and people losing their minds over it being gone are massively over-reacting and have been since it was removed.

While Kaiten might not have been the best designed thing out there, the point is that people like Kaiten because of how it feels. Kaiten didn't subtract anything from the casual experience and just added more to Samurai. so why did it have to be taken away? who were these changes for?
People already knew they didn't like the change from the announcement of it and were told to provide feedback

people have provided the feedback the devs requested, and we still don't know why it was removed. Button bloat wasn't true, and the other reason that it made planning for the future difficult also just brings up the question of 'why now?'

when the changes to a class are already disliked from the announcement, and then they go through with a purely subtractive change, especially to people that go out of their way to do high end content, learn the in's and out's of a job. people are going to react strongly. Even more so when their feedback gets ignored for almost half a year, how do you expect people to react?

You're right, it wasn't a good button, it was a great button and it was an extremely good design that paired well with a melee having casted skills that used to hit like a truck. The only people that think it wasn't a good button never played the job correctly to begin with.

Y'all are so dramatic on these forums. And I thought the WoW community was bad for the amount of doom saying and crying they would do.

Geez, get over it. Move on with your life. Either learn to live with change, or find a different job that you'll enjoy more.

You're adults; stop throwing hissy fits and temper tantrums because something didn't go your way.

Do you act like this in your real life too?

I have moved on to playing BLM this tier, but it doesn't mean I'm going to stop showing my grievances about my favorite job being completely destroyed.
