Re: SAM as a tank
I can barely hold out on Colibri as it is on SAM/WAR.


I will say this right now; Seigan is unreliable. Sometimes I take up to 6+ hits and even counter most of them, other times I get only one. I have to admit though I grin like a madman every time I "Anticipate" a Peckling Furry ^^


As for the archery merits, they really do help. SAM has a C+ rating in archery and needs all the +ranged accuracy you can get your hands on. RNG sub is extremely helpful for this, and using a Soboro Sukehiro to spam Sidewinder is insanely fun (albeit suicidal)


Speaking of which, we were fighting puks yesterday and we nearly wiped to one but I laid the smack down in it with 4 (yes FOUR) sidewinders back-to-back courtesy of Meditate and Meikyo Shisui. Too bad only 3 actually landed >. >

Amazing the PLD was able to get hate after that (1200+ dmg in the span of 5 seconds and he gets hate back >. > <. <) but I'm confident we woulda died otherwise as the mages were desperately low on MP as was our PLD.


SAM/RNG FTW
