Sorry, you targeted the wrong person, I don't watch anime. If you want to see how I think a Samurai should be try watching some Akira Kurosawa films. A much better archetype for a Samurai in my opinion.here is a list of Kurosawa's movies:<a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000041/" target="_blank">http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000041/</a>I highly recommend Yojimbo and The Seven Samurai, both excellent movies with Samurai characters. There are also quite a few good books that detail the sword techniques of the Samurai, which don't include fighting with two weapons. Very few use two-weapon style.I believe you have confused my use of the word "balance" to mean that I want something more powerful, when I would prefer that classes not be balanced in terms of having unnecessary abilities. Just because a class A has three abilities doesn't mean class B needs 3 abilities if they are neither appropriate or necessary. I'm sorry, I get the feel quite often when reading Prc's that a class is given abilities because it was deemed to not have enough, not because the abilities are appropriate.OA's Samurai is a well-designed archetype, even though it has less special abilities.If you want to discuss Ninjutsu, we can do that as well (on a different thread). I am fairly well-read on Ninjutsu and actually consider the history of the Ninja interesting.</blockquote>
