Samurai

Overview
Samurai is one of the classes that can be selected in Log Horizon.

Summary
The Samurai uses Japanese equipment. (Daiyoroi*, Katana, Tachi*) The Samurai's defense can rival that of the Guardian, but because the class cannot equip shields, their overall defense is inferior.

Samurai skills have a long cooldown, it has many so-called "ace moves", can chain large combos in a short amount of time, and demonstrates high offensive and defensive ability in combat.

The class is difficult to use but extremely popular on the Japanese server. Its weakness would be that once an ace move is used, the Samurai is unable to respond. This class inherently requires incredible insight of the battlefield.
