5.55 was the best iteration of SAM imo. At that point, nothing had been pruned, kenki costs were varied and made sense. And tsubame wasn't at 2 charges to make everything feel odd with cooldown timings. But while I'm here, I wanna poke at some of the points made towards my comments earlier.

@RyuuZero
"prepare for disappointment."
-I already am disappointed, and I expect that to continue. Riveting point of debate.

"have you ever hit a monster you shouldn't hit in PotD/HoH Content? One Geirskogul in the wrong direction and you wipe.
For Samurai that's a bit harder, because have so much options, by just upgrading single target into AoE you automaticly get rid of that nuance, which is what I'm against in regards of Samurai."
-this is extremely niche and also impossible to even compare. PotD caps at 60. HoH caps at 70. While DRG may have a big line aoe that requires some Thought and Skill to make use of without misstepping in higher floors where that could even be a problem, SAM doesn't get either of the abilities you're complaining about us suggesting consolidating beyond guren at 70, which btw, would be exactly the same scenario as DRG would be in your hypothetical. There is no Shoha or Senei to speak of in either of those instances.

Didn't have time earlier to address that in my post before, but my work breaks are pretty short.
