SAM is dead

[Deithwen]

You really want to turn the Samurai into a Dragoon Circle Jerk in order to get Kaiten back, instead of looking at the entire History of the Samurai Gameplay? seriously the merging of Shoha/Shoha II & Senei/Guren would turn those skills into Geirskogul/Nastrond but Circle AoE and I do not need that but Hey! if you hate half of Shoha so much why don't we get rid of Meditation altogether? that would delete 2 skills instead of one, wouldn't that be great?



well SB introduced Guren as 2minute Line AoE Buster, just how ShB introduced Shoha as 3 Iaijutsu Bonus Attack, just how EW introduced Ogi Namikiri as an Ikishoten-Triggered Cone AoE Buster. Do you see the Pattern?
I will be more clear with it:
lvl70, Guren, AoE
lvl72, Senei, Single Target
lvl80 Shoha, Single Target
lvl82 Shoha II, AoE
lvl90 Ogi Namikiri, AoE
lvl92 Ogi Whatever, Single Target

My Point is that every new Resource gave the Samurai a New Skill that got Expanded upon a New Expansion to accommondate the other Situation in combat.
The Job is out since 2017 How am I the only One who sees this is beyond me.

You are seeing a pattern, good for you, what I'm saying is that your argument that Sam is becoming like Dragoon is false, because at first we only had Gurren anyway. Unless you are wanting to admit to say that Samurai in 4.0 was like Dragoon ?
That would be a bold stance to hold.
Senei was already button bloat at the time, since it was exactly like Gurren but Single target, and gurren got nerfed.
Shoha is what it is, a filler. Shoha 2 is a useless variant.

"My Point is that every new Resource gave the Samurai a New Skill that got Expanded upon a New Expansion to accommondate the other Situation in combat."

It's absolutely false. Existing skills got changed and nerfed to create new versions of them. Samurai changed to be like it is now, and as such reverting it back won't harm the job too badly.
