Samurai Class?

I mean it could but people brought up glaring issues I just thought it would be cool

It’s bad solely for this. We don’t need anymore race exclusive classes.

Blademaster as an Ascension class for Warrior could be pretty cool to fulfill this role.

Combat is Pirate and everyone knows Pirates and Ninjas Samurai don’t mix. In fact they are mortal enemies.

This is relevant to my interests. :japanese_castle: :heartpulse: :hibiscus:

I would love a class like this but it is Japanease in orgin and not Chinease which would clash with politics beyond this game.

“Slash Strike” is a bit redundant. It would just be “Slash”.

A samurai or even ninja in WoW would be cool
but I want it based on WoW lore. Even newer lore. Maybe a blademaster for samurai? Or something that doesn’t exist from the rts at all.

Hmm,if they change it to blademaster that would fit either way without any problem ,and add a lore would be nice.

Samurai - Tank.
Ronin - DPS.
Ninja - Range DPS.
Shrine Maiden / Miko - Healer.
I dunno a good name for Healer since I’m not weeb enough lol but yeah.

This theme would actually work if we were to have an dragon race.

Don’t we already kind of have them, just with different serial numbers filed on? And what about bows? I read somewhere that samurai were supposed to be better archers than swordsmen.

Orc Samurais are a thing, they’re known as Blademasters.

And half-orc ones, don’t forget our pal Lantresor~ I always kind of thought the, uhh
 Shado-Pan? Were sort of like samurai.

So much yes.
I’ll name my undead samurai Senjutsu!
\m/

I am Samurai Snu-Snu!

Neat class concept.

I’d expand it to Orcs and Mag’har, Draenei and LFD and maybe human?, lessen the focus of the class itself (but not the reason Pandaren have it) on the August Celestials and maybe make the spec names reference more broad things too.

  1. It’s an arms warrior.
  2. If we’re making a Samurai class in WoW, it would be a Blademaster.
  3. The last thing this game needs is another new melee class. We need caster or physical ranged.
