Overview
Samurai are good to have in any campaign because of their strong combat presence.

The Deflection skill is great against enemy ranged units or magic-users as it will essentially negate the damage of projectile attacks directed at the Samurai.

Bushido is a passive skill that bolsters the Samurai's Attack and Defense stats.

Precision Edge is an offensive skill that deals a lot of damage and significantly lowers the target's Defense.

Sword Torment is an offensive skill that will hit all enemies at once.

The Honorable Death skill is a passive skill that will become available for use when the Samurai falls below 30 health; the skill allows the Samurai to smite themselves down in battle, and in exchange an ally will receive a full heal; this is useful if an ally is in dire need of healing and is best used on another offensive class; if the Samurai is the only offensive unit in the party, it is advised not to use the skill unless absolutely necessary.
