Heh, USEFUL if you level him. Four reasons for this: 1. His RB skill PWNS ALL. It's said to be godly damage for a pet. 2. After lvl 90 or so he's very strong against fires, especially useful in quests when u don't have strong (m)atk or you're wind. XD I find him helpful just to finish off enemies, mine's lvl 60 and he does about 5-700 damage depending on element (in other words, he pokes them pretty hard so u don't need to waste a turn finishing off enemies you didn't crit on XD)... 3. Water shield. 1/2 the damage for matks :D I've found this extremely useful for helping with GS, FS, RB, 15 Round(on other pets), NT(:D take that martians!), and for some instances too. Basically anywhere Matks get on your nerves he's the solution if u have him high enough lvl. 4. HP, he has a ton of it. Lvl 60 mine has over 600 naked, over 900 with an armlet and I usually put cloudy sword on him so he has about 1.2k. My friend has a lvl 120+ Sam and he has 1k hp naked without scrolling any con. Waaaaay better than having to scroll your Angela to get HP if you ask me. Now this is a pet you have to really work at lvling (he can burst so it's not hard at all really but finding a team gets annoying for me), but if you ask me the results are well worth it. :D I've done almost every quest for mages there is out there and used Sam in them because I made 2 new mage characters after v4, and so I've tested him out thoroughly when it comes to questing and I don't regret spending all that effort to max his melee skill and burst him to 60+. To answer your questions: Does he have high Atk: Yes, very low damage at the start but lvl 50+, especially with hot fire, he can take chunks of hp at a time, but in comparison to Fred he is weak so don't base him on that alone. Looking at Magellan or Shasha or Eva, at around the same lvls Sam is high damage in comparison. Does he have Defense?: OMG WHY BOTHER ASKING! YES! As far as I know his defense/HP is the best of any pet released so far. You can't beat him unless you have ur Xaolan use Stone Wall, but that's cheating :P and he has water shield anyway. Does he have High Speed?: No. I can name about 10 pets at least with more spd than him, but if you scroll 2 int away and put it on agility, he can get plenty enough spd to keep up with most characters... My fire mage lvl 100+ has 200+ spd and my Sam outruns him at lvl 60 and I've only scrolled 2 agility, on the other hand my newb lvl 99 water has near 400 speed and Sam can't keep up so it depends on the range of speed you are looking for. Overall he is a slower pet. Last edited Mon, 31 Aug 2009, 8:01am by soka7
