QoL and reducing number of the buttons suggestion

[Reinhardt_Azureheim]

Specifically for SAM, this type of counting for consolidation does not work because of the existence of Meikyo and necessity of random-sized fillers (in at least some fights, and definitely during prog). At best, this would deduct 3 buttons for single target, which would, admittedly, still be a better solution than removing Kaiten because some clowns who barely play the class "don't like it".

Consolidating combos for Gekko, Kasha, Yukikaze, Mangetsu and Oka would have no bearing on what you can do as a Samurai gameplay wise.

Meikyo Shisui on combo finishers grants their respective damage and haste effects, so you have no reason to use those stacks for Jinpu or Shifu. Furthermore, if for any reason you want to run fillers you have Enpi (particularly after Hissatsu: Yaten) and for whatever strange reason you want to break your combo after Jinpu/Shifu you simply press the Hakaze combo starter of a different combo.

The only thing this will prevent you from doing is intentionally using Hakaze repeatedly. Which I'd genuinely ask why you'd want to do that.
