Race/class combo that most resembles a samurai?

[Octopath]

I’m thinking a wood elf or half elf for the race? And rogue or ranger for class?

[Naethyn]

Erudite Paladin

[Moriel72]

id say human ranger/rog or even warrior

[Polixa]

Samuraie were warriors, so the answer is warrior.

[sentinel]

HE Chanter in troll illusion wielding runed totem staff

But yeah, I'd say half elf rogue or warrior

[Zalora]

Iksar warriors/shadow knights get Shogun helmets and banded samurai armor.

All you need is a Naginata or a Katana and you qualify! I'm Japanese so i'm allowed to grant you that title. Please send your approvals to my inbox.

Ok samurai aside, which race is closest to Japanese?

[GhostCow]

Humans you giant weeb

Humans you giant weeb

Had to look up what a weeb is, I’ll take that.

I just got a cool Japanese name I wanted to use on green but not sure what class/race to play

[bigjeff100]

Yeah i mean i guess you have to choose human huh? Due to the fact that asians are humans, and they do have a monk class.. Iksars have a monk class and should be considered due to being surrounded by water and their enjoyment of seafood.. Erudites are my curveball option- Which i only toss out cause the warrens and the surrounding zones are filled with dope Japanese style weapons..

[Videri]

It's fun to have an inspiration, theme, or jumping-off point for your character!

Erudite Paladin

Or Shadowknight, I think;

Iksar warriors/shadow knights get Shogun helmets and banded samurai armor.

Or Human paladin, shadowknight, or warrior.

[Jibartik]

Human maybe yea, get a VP robe and a sow sword I guess?

[Keza]

If you want to be a samurai go play the FFXI emu. It straight up has samurais. Also ninjas. And pirates. Also it's a great game as well.

EQ is RP'ing as lightningbolt kid. Except much more coolerer because we are adults. Hang on there's an emote conversation happening at the gate and I need to take part.

But if you insist on being the wrong kind of cringelord just roll human warrior, get the sort-of-not-really katanas and pretend your armor doesn't look totally ridiculous.

10/10 forum quester answer. Thanks

[pink grapefruit]

how did emojis replace emoticons?

wtf even is an emoji and why do i love them so much :(

[Dillusional]

Dark elf warrior with Jaelen's Katana and Whitestone shield i guess....

[Arcticflava]

Samurai use a 2 handed sword, so monk is out.

They did not have scales or a tail. So Iksar is out as well.

Human warrior is the answer I believe.

[bwe]

They did not have scales or a tail.

[Sonark]

Iksar Shadowknights get the best katana in the game.

I don't really understand the rogue thing. Rogues emphatically ignore bushido.

Ranger makes some sense given they use more "medium" armor, and are supposed to have a moral law/code to follow. Race is probably not terribly relevant.

[Ennewi]

Human male with ornate hair barrette. And Warrior instead of Shadow Knight because Samurai didn't Feign Death.

If you go warrior, dont wear plate armor. Samurai wore leather and chain.

[Muggens]

Erudite Paladin

[brokenpromise]

Humans you giant weeb

Lmfaooo

[Jimjam]

Japanese are human, samurai are warriors.

Hope this helped!

[fadetree]

So did most Samurai!

[Nagoya]

Human Warrior, any other suggestion is taking japanese people or samurai for something they are not.
