Talk:Zanshin
From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia
Zanshin seems to proc more often at level 75 sam; I asked a few other samurai that have leveled with me if they also felt this and they have agreed. I'm not 100% sure and nor are they if this just a hunch or something SE placed into samurai. --Charles Guillen 20:40, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

proc rate
can we get some good testing so we don't have to say "seems to activate as often as double attack"? is it 10% or..? charlottie 19:18, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
Under the assumption that Zanshin has a similar activation rate to Double Attack, this could mean that items that enhance this trait may in fact add 1% to the job trait similar to the items. Certain items may be an exception, as I have noticed that I see Zanshin activate more frequently as a SAM when I'm equipped with a Katana Strap. This leads me to believe that enhancing items that can be worn by jobs other than SAM may be similar to the Brutal Earring which increases Double Attack activation by 5%. Whether this is true needs to be tested for such items like the Hachiryu armor and Bushido Cape.--Jaxen 17:18, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
Zanshin may proc on guarded off swings
Been playing around with SAM/THF at cap 40, soloing Taurus in the aqueducts, it's happened several times now so i'm sure it's not lag acting up, i "double attack" sometimes, and it always involves the first hit doing below normal damage (critical hit for 30 instead of 150 for example).
Wonder if shield blocks and parry may trigger zanshin too. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ilean (talk • contribs).
Zanshin kicks randomly when you miss , as randomly as double attack. no mater how and what you miss , a miss stay a miss (and in case of guard and shield its not a miss). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Yuffy (talk • contribs).
- Guard is considered a miss. --Leuqarte 18:33, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Zanshin on WS
link to tests showing zanshin can proc on WS please. i've never seen any evidence of this, and suspect someone just "heard it somewhere" when they wrote it. --Bowser 19:09, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
- I myself don't have any screenshots or anything but I think it's rather obvious, especially when soloing when you use a Weaponskill and the log says it missed but you defeat the mob. Gekko on a Zanshin hit for example. Gekko is obviously going to do more than a melee hit so if you do the hit and the target's HP drops more than what a normal melee hit would've been for instance. That's when I've seen it most.

Double Attack/Triple Attack
Can Double Attack &/or Triple Attack occur during a Zanshin-hit? --User:Gonavan/SigX 01:15, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
Accessing Zanshin
I remember hearing you need a 2-handed Weapon for Zanshin like with Hasso and Seigan. Is this true? Orenwald 16:31, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
- This is false. I'm a BLU/SAM and I've noticed Zanshin kick in on plenty of my misses. --Azulmagia 06:14, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
