Not really but now that i have your attention, What do you think will become of sam/rng with new update? idea? thoughts? I know sam/rng isnt "the best ever" but its fun to play around with. What you guys think will come of it when update hits? if anything.

I'd like to see it go up to B+ for SAM to help justify being able to equip the Yoichinoyumi.

I don't get why that would make a difference, a B+ and an A- are only 13 skill points apart, not even a haub(If Haubergeon modified ranged atk/acc) away from one another.

Consider that Ranger only has an A- in Archery and Marksmanship too...

Samurai/ranger is a lot like DD Corsair, it requires considerable investment, both in skill and gil, compared to the "Get an Ebow and win the game" ranger. But is not outside the reach of anyone really. Samurai/Ranger also got just a little nastier with an upgraded (real) Kurodachi. Respectable DPS high TP gain weapon, supported by the sheer rapefest of Sidewinder.

I would be interesting to see. I mean even raising it from a C+ to a B- puts Archery on par with Polearm.

Just thinking off the top of my head though, SAM doesn't get as great of access to gear that supports archery as opposed to polearm.

Reverse flourish just gives you free steps. Other than that, you spend the same TP on the steps as you'll get back from the flourish, (maybe a few tp more), it's not going to be a viable source of tp gain. Just some free debuffs.

Anyone who read this title and thought it was genuine is just silly.

Wouldn't this make 3 step light pretty easy though?

I mean I've heard it's possible with just your af head, relic hands, sekkanoki and good timing but I can't seem to do it no matter how many times I try. Maybe I just suck, who knows..

3 step light is pretty novelty though, doesn't have much practical use for what you have to do to set it up.

ya sam/dnc is gonna be the new /drg, since you'll get haste samba hehe its only 5% but thats the same 5% you'd get off of /drg's expensive earring, but you also get back up healing abilities with debuffs from steps and you'd get the same acc bonus trait as /drg but with evade bonus trait as well.

and no Tiger, i'm pretty sure you get bonus tp for reverse flourish (its like 10 per step unless you max steps, then you get like a bonus 10 if i'm remembering the JA correctly)

(oh ya and i'll admit i was duped by the title.... FFFFUUUUUU OP lol) Would be kinda pointless to give sam a boost in archery though, because they already have a decent skill level, and its not like they'd get Empyreal Arrow anyways hehe

Except you're forgetting you're going to be using 50 tp get a 60 tp return.

When DNC is your sub job you only get one FM, not 2. Have fun!

I did, just saying if it does come to pass it would be absolute BS, seeing that SAM has already been unfairly favoured to the point it can crush almost any other job across the board.

/dnc isn't going to be the new /drg >.>. You get a real dancer and even if you don't have one you stick /dnc on your weakest DD for samba. So unless you're calling yourself the weakest DD, there is no reason for you to be subbing dnc. Evasion, lol. The debuffs and healing? Again, weakest DD.

"and no Tiger, i'm pretty sure you get bonus tp for reverse flourish (its like 10 per step unless you max steps, then you get like a bonus 10 if i'm remembering the JA correctly)"

Yea you're right, you get 10 tp for all your trouble(5 steps 10 tp = 50 tp spent to get 60 tp. 60-50 = 10), but after you consider the 2 sec JA delay you get for each step, that's a hit or two you won't be getting, so you will actually net yourself in the red when it comes to tp gain because you'll lose an attack round or two in the time you get from the JA delay and you get more than 10 tp/attack round, so you actually walk out with less tp

Meh it really depends on the on the mob i'm not saying s/e dousnt /come for sam they do but to say they are the absolute best for everything is wrong yea they win on hnms most of the time but with equel gear a war/sam can be equal to a sam/war and in zergs well nothing beats a good drk.

Every 2hander should be \sam allready.
Except for sam ofcourse <_>

Cor\dnc etc is gonna be great for when you dont have a real dancer in the party.
