    This is, out of every other Samurai video I watched, the best one to learn from scratch about Samurai. I just started FFXIV a week ago. I hit Lv50 and immediately equipped Samurai, and was extremely overwhelmed by all the secondary energies (sen, kenki, meditation stacks) as well as the oriental names of the skills. After an hour and a half of reading through skills while cross-referencing this video, I know what every skill does, and have started planning my rotation without even having the skills yet, lol. Great video, thank you so much!

      Aaaahh! I’m doing basically the same! I started playing around a week ago, missed a quest chain needed to unlock White Mage (started going down the healer path), and didn’t unlock it until 39. At lv 53 I went for Samurai to mix things up a bit. There’s a lot to keep up with.

    Ty so much. Like many other noobs I'm sure once people hit level 50 for the first time, at least me, I went straight to snag Red Mage/Samurai/Dark Knight as they all looked incredibly appealing. It's kinda overwhelming to say the least, just thrown like 20 buttons with no prior use lol.

I think stopped because I was super tired when I unlocked Kyuten to really figure out when to use it and was like, "eh, I'll get back to that" and just...haven't lol. But the way you explain that and the other stuff makes sense. I'll have to give it a go again!

    The fact that you list all the moves that use the Kenki gauge was the exact thing I have been looking for. I understand the rotations of the Sam at this point and am trying to set my skills up for use on my controller. So knowing all of the abilities that I should have and be using is a struggle to figure out where they need to be on my cross hotbars. This is going to help me a ton. I am sure once I get the abilities set in a good spot I will be doing a much better job than I am now. One of the better videos I have seen. I am going to go see if you have one for Paladin now :)

    If my memory doesn't fail me, I think Fuka also reduces your auto attack delay and casting time by 13% as well, though, it doesn't actually reduce the time needed to use Iaijutsu. Also, after the latest patch, Midare and Higanbana can be cast from 6 feet away, which is absolutely hilarious. They're like spells now lol
