Why cant we have Inqudata for ninja we have 702 parry naturally and we can increase it up to 740 without even trying much just why cant we have Inquadata gear?????????????? ninja was the original parry job..

Ninja was accidentally good at tanking, it wasn't originally meant to be a tank.

As a New/Returning Player, my desire to level Ninja and engage with it's job mechanics is very high - but its discouraging to see that Ninja is in "a weird place". Many reddit threads claim "No one will want to play with you". This seems problematic and requiring a balance change.

Do the devs put any effort into balance changes now a days or introduce gear that might enable under-performing jobs?

Thank you!

Shadow tanking was too good and most newer content has a lot of moves that wipe shadows which is why NIN isn't as popular anymore. But it's still perfectly capable otherwise. Play the jobs you enjoy, not the ones Reddit tells you to play.

Balance changes are rare at this point- change is not likely.
