Are there any hardcore samurais out there? People that have samurai as their only 75, or those that that are pretty much playing sam the full time they are online?

All Samurai on this server TP in Hachiman Domaru, they all should commit sepaku.
#3REDACTED, Posted: May 01 2009 at 8:06 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) If you're tarutaru, with a 75 base hp of barely 1000, with no HP or EVA merits, then its excuse-able , as long as your make other good gear choices.

It's never excusable to TP in Hachiman Domaru.

What the fuck? No. Everything you just said is full of fail and AIDS.

Base Tarutaru SAM/WAR HP at 75 is 1100, I typically sat around 1200 in TP gear.

Evasion merits are stupid unless you're an absolutely hardcore THF soloist.

Gear is decided on a per-slot basis, and using good gear in one slot does not make room for you to purposefully use ****** gear in another.

Haube offers the best damage, no ****. Who doesnt want to do the most damage as a DD? I make the assertion that taru sams may have a hard time staying alive if they pull hate, and you rush in like interwebz police.

And /nin has less hp. Going /war more often than not is a death sentence. But im sure going /nin is less than uber, so your hive mind won't accept that possiblity.
Ok, SAM/NIN, disregarding it's level of fail, has 1059 base HP at 75. OH SH*T I SO GOT TOLD, that's a staggering 41 HP less. PS: Try SAM/DRG. It's a different degree of offensive power without the downside of berserk.

Evasion merits are one of the few defensive 'traits' you can merit. Should they be a last-on-the-list merit for samurai, yes.
Without a dedicated evasion build, you aren't going to break the floor on evade rate at the merit level, so your evasion merits wouldn't be doing anything anyway. Also, fully merited SAM can take 8/8 GKT and 8/8 polearm without even considering other jobs. All 20/20 of my combat merits are in melee skills. You'll find that almost nobody (lol deadgye) has only one 75 anymore with the exception of newer players.

If you're honestly having trouble staying alive in a merit party, that's generally a sign of something much more severe than just "you pull hate too much". People don't avoid buying hauby because they are concerned about dying from pulling hate. They avoid it because they're cheap and won't bother to cough up the what, 200k, to get one of the best and most common DD body piece in the game. The irony is of course that Domaru costs about 70k now anyway, so you could be selling it and getting yourself 1/3rd of the way to the hauby.

DDDOOOOOOMMMMMMMAAAARRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Did ISNM with 3 tard SAMs, one in domaru, one in acp body, two of them not using hagun, all of them using random pieces of af1/2 and jse shit. Didn't even bother checking their non-visible gear out of fear of a heart attack.

They couldn't even break 500 dmg ws regularly on the puk. Good thing that isnm is so damn easy...
#9REDACTED, Posted: May 04 2009 at 11:06 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Recently level'd a job to 75 and every single samurai (with the exception of maybe 2-3) were horrid. I totally agree that domaru is about 70k 1/3 of a hauby. Nabs will be nabs.

I guess the real question would be why are you gearing for HP on SAM in the first place?

Let's go back to the question at hand, Niacin posted this:

In other words, you're trying to defend why it's ok to TP in Hachiman Domaru, which it is never, under any circumstance, acceptable.

Sam is just easy to gear for... Thats what you pussies are ******** about on the main forum all the time. 'waaa waa waa sam is overpowered'.

But what the @#%^ ever, I come in here and defend a piece of gear thats not bottom-of-barrel and I get sh*t on.


SAM is easy to gear for, if you're a completely shitty sam.

I consider this gear setup to be above standard for any SAM I party with.

However, 90% of the SAMs in a pick up party show and in this and use it fulltime.

You sure got me pegged there friend.
#20REDACTED, Posted: May 07 2009 at 9:10 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I dont dispute that the gear in the first link is absolute sh*t. But for every 5 sams that i see wearing a haube, 2 or more have a shinsoku, which shows they apparently have never read the sam forum and dont know that onimaru is a much better option.

Oh, hi there good sir. Invest in a damage down set. Also, get better tanks.

Get better tanks and/or stop WSing at 99% if you can't tank it.
