Depends on what you use to get 6hit.

Sam can 5hit solo I have seen it. And calculated it. Also seen same sam 3step light with only meditate and sekka. Maybe should learn your own job better?

Have to be /drg, or be in campaign to 5hit Gkt, as it takes somewhere near +56 w/ merits or somtething. Edit** Or have Futsuno.

The only way you'll ever get a 5-hit build with GK is if: A)You have Amanomurakumo. B)You have Futsuno Mitama. C)You have Pachipachio. D)You have Sukesada (Lol) E)You're using Ito. F)You have no idea about the fundamentals of SAM, or for that matter any DD.

Under perfect conditions something like 130+ store tp is possible

Though very hard to put together with super store tp a sam could get like 44% per hit with a relic bow and random arrows. And yes I mean the 999 delay relic bow

No this guy did solo light with pachi and I was only person in his pt as a blm. Was pretty cool. Also quick check shows 49 store tp is possible from just gear if in salvage with water effect on... yeah I know. 50 from cor on a 11. 25 from trait 10 from merits 7 from food.... so 141 possible.

So, on topic, as mentioned it depends what gear you currently have as well as your merits and being @75 for max natural StoreTP, being +35. For a 6-hit with a 450 delay GK, which is the most common of builds, you need an additional 11 STP to make 6-hits, for a total of +46 between all 6 hits, including strikes and WS. If you have Brutal, Usukane feet and Rajas, it's pretty cut and dry to use Dusk Hands. If not you have more specific gear considerations. Either way, add up what you have into FFXI Calculator and see where you stand: http://www.ffxicalculator.com/

dusk gloves. Too many alternatives to a 6hit to give up 3% haste. Edit: Also, sam roll is generally a waste of a roll.

Ludoggy said: inb4mysamisbetterthenyours Since all these uberSAM have shared their thoughts about the original question (read: just talked about certain hit setups).. maybe one from someone who knows nothing about 5/6/w/e-Hit crap and would like to answer the original quesion.. Look up info on a 6-Hit set up. If Hachiman Kote will get you that with only changing it then sure that's best but, if not/until you can, get it use Dusk Gloves.

If you have like 3 good SAMs in your party, and they all go from a 6 hit to a 5 hit using your rolls, and you don't have a DRK, I'd probably take the Samurai Roll because that's a 20% boost in WS frequency (25% if they're using Polearms) and that's more than an un-DRK'd Chaos would do.

Rather get Fighter's if I'm getting a second combat roll. If you have Rose Strap and Rajas, Rose/Rajas/Ecphoria with full STP merits is your best pre-Usukane TP setup. 3% Haste > 2% DA

Only agree because Y/G/K gets a huge attack bonus for GKT, otherwise for polearm, better off with chaos roll.
