I have an apprentice sniper, and to be honest, I don't really enjoy the class that much. I decided that I wanted to make a samurai to mix things up. It seems like a pretty uncommon class that might be a little fun.
I dug around in the forum and found a lot of debates about vit vs agi and whether one should start with vit or str.
I'm still not sure if I want to start with vit or str. I know with high vit, one can use edel hood (mdef up by vit and down by int, mp cost-5%, dex+5. They can also use knight gauntlet ( ATK+30, ATK up by VIT (1/4 of VIT), HP+15%). I haven't been able to find many other equips besides red tengu for samurai...
Anyways, these are the builds I found
STR>DEX>VIT STR>DEX>AGI VIT>DEX>AGI VIT>AGI>DEX
I'm a little bit confused about this whole agi thing. I believe agi adds one attack. I read one thread and it said that agi doesn't add aspd for samurais. Then I heard there's some special katana that adds a bunch of attack on agi??? Confuzzled...
Anyways, the builds I'm most interested in are STR>DEX>VIT and VIT>DEX>AGI. I believe the first one will cause more damage, but won't be able to have much survivability until much later. The second one, if equipped with the right gears, won't add much attack until much later on, but will be easier to survive??? Gosh, I need some opinions.
Edit: someone please tell me about this equipment degrading thing?

Id suggest a vit dex agi. I was one and plan to go back to it when i come back to iruna. With kats UP. I was just about as much dmg as str dex vit build. But with 4x the hp... With special sword. Att is lowerd by crt...BUT the samurai crt buff does now lower it. Its OP imo.

Oh and degrading is from finishing stroke. If u have supernatural buff on then no chance of degrade. Now...with that said. As a samurai, you'll also need to know when bosses debuff and which ones debuff. If u start casting f.stroke..and the boss debuffs, it will degrade ur wep prolly.

I think I'll go with vit>dex>agi with a katz up. So, I'm still a little confused about degrading. Could you explain it a little more, and how much it degrades it? Is the degrading permanent, and how long does the supernatural buff last?

I believe supernatural is 6minutes. Finishing stroke has a chance to degrade wep. +9-+8 +8-+7 +7-+6 And so on. Degrades it one refinemnt level if you do not have the supernatural buff. The supernatural buff is a 140 quest. Just gotta double check make sure u have it buffed. Always lol. Ive had to +9 my old red tengu......idk prolly 20 times n i still check a lot.

So this only happens with certain mobs? I'd assume not too many. Does this happen with all mobs when you use finishing stroke or only a few?

For all mobs. Finishing stoke is what degrades wep, not mobs.

Well tbh id go ninja still around lv200 then goto samurai. Spec jobs can switch to spec jobs whenever. Ninjas faster leveling untill higher levels. If u cant dish out money for re stats maybe wait. U still have issen. The issue will be crt. Since spec swords its a bad idea to actually add crt, it would be ideal to nibja till 200. Because with your skill which raises crt 1 per each level, you would only have 100 at lv 100. I havent been a low lv samurai so i cant give u much advice x)

i think the supernatural skill is at lvl 160~ And i... suggest choosing str>Dex>vit since with this build u can tank, and because when in a pt, when using finishing stroke, samurai usually gains hate n is aggroed, so i think having vit is a gud idea, for more hp/def ( gud survivality)~
