in

my opinion i say sam is better then drk because of our versitility to make a skill chain in

the blink of an eye and with anyone obviosly this is more true at higher lvls as you have

more weapon skills to choose from however the drk does deal more dmg but whats better more

dmg per hits or more skill chains w/ MB?

Now my

turn, I say DRK, but by small margin. More damage overall, better skills, strongest WS is

stronger than strongest WS of great katana. I have respect for every job though so i love

SAM. SAM do have those WS abilities that make them really good. Pretty respectable but I

always will love the DRK's.

In

PvP the SAM would currently lose to the DRK... Where DRK does huge damage each hit the SAM

misses 50% (why do you think they get extra TP?) not a lot of knowledge on either though,,

DRK= not a class id use and i quit SAM after lv2 cos an even match fried my Great Katana

using bum......

ok actually Tachi: Kasha samurai 250 skill is only out done in dmg by rng

weapon skills in dmg but other then that yes you do more dmg not argueing

that^^


chista: about the missing that's what dex and accuracy gear is for yes it

isn't cheap but once you hit lvl 40 a lot of accuracy + items become available such as

sniper rings, jujitsu gi ect...

Not true.

Truly

A samurai only shows its true capability with a spear/polarm, and i believe at that point

they would be virtually even with the sam having penta thrust, and more accuracy since it is

harder to hit with a great katana

very untrue Mexico a sam with a polearm is basically useless to a PT for now the sam lacks

his most important ability: the ability to make a skill chain with anyone and I use both

polearm and Great Katana and can tell you from my experience the polearm is not more

accurate then the Great katana and i'm stacked with as much dex and accuracy+ equipment i

can get

Ive been

in alot of parties with a number of sams, and eversince i hit lvl 50 ive out damaged them in

everyway possible. today i was with one of my sam friends and i was doing double the amout

of damage per hit, and i was also getting my tp up just as fast as im if not faster

sometimes. he even had a life belt for better accracy which im still lackiing, so that is my

reason why dark knights are better over all for damage dealing, but i must say, the sams 2

hour kicks ass

I like

DRK better as a class, but SAMs better as players/people. Mostly because any decent Samurai

player is absoloutely insane about renkei/skill chaining, and for some reason I find it

hilarious. Get two samurai in your party and watch them talk about the most effecient/best

renkei the entire time.

it

is very true that per hit drk will out dmg sam but from my expierence the only ppl that have

out gained me with TP are mnk/sam and then i'm gaining at about the same rate but usually

faster but i don't PT with very many drks that ofter mostly another sam and a mnk or thf

As long

as the DRK has enough accuracy, DRK will always outdamage SAM at my level... this much is

true. However, DRK can't skillchain nearly as well, or as often... and DRK are -horrible-

fuidama partners. Think about it this way: What is better? A SAM helping a Thief do 2

Distortion skillchains in a single fight with Enpi -> Dancing Edge (Enpi doing at least 150,

more often I get near 200, Dancing Edge doing 700-900, the renkei itself doing 300-500, and

BLM using Blizzaga II or Water III for a magic burst of about 400-600... multiple all that

damage by 2) or the Dark Knight using Guillotine once in the fight for maybe... 500 damage

once? ^^;

Like switch said... we're just alot more versatile. I'd have to say I

like SAM better.

Kayoto

your just mad that your char isn't as strong as it coult be. DRK > SAM but sam are still

cool. Sorry I was mad when i wrote what I put before. I actually think SAM are just as cool

as DRK .. but in the long run there are 2 kinds of parties, those that go with a SAM and

MNK and a few others to make good skillchains on every mob .. and those that put a DRG and a

DRK and just pump damage.

demix no one is denying that drk is stronger and personally i don't care that everyone out

dmgs me sam is like the rdm for melee we make the big things happen and keep the high dmg

flowing so you major dmg dealers can do your job better and the mages can nuke for more dmg

we make skill chains happen and no we aren't strong and if you ask most sams we are quite

content doing are job of making renkai ask a rdm who is the better nuker him or the blm its

the blm but the rdm brings refresh and dispel to the table making him optimal for mages to

keep going on for chain 4-5 just as sam makes the skill chains to be able to kill a mob

faster so you can also get those chain 4-5

That

is true. Sam are very versatile when it coming to skill chaining together with others. For

the most part I've noticed DRK's chain mainly consist of darkness....for obvious reasons.

If I have another DRK in my party we can do some nice Renkai, not near as nice as what two

SAM could do but, I can magic burst off my own renkai ^^
