Ninja Ability Suggestion

[WoW]

Mikage as a job trait and as new 1-jour, an ability That double the effect of ninjustsu.

This would be cool; some may argue that it could be broken, but does it not dependent on the number of shadows you have? If you are reaching breakneck speed; enmity would be most likely generated which could equate to your shadows being lost. Nin was intended to be a fast striker, look at the -delay on their gear.

Ninja is a great job, in theory, but the vision and the actual performance does not equate. Innin; great idea, but the circumstances that makes this JA shine are quite rare. Mikage; another great idea, but it only occurs every hour. Sange; Imo the JA with the most potential (No I am not a Naruto fan, never even watched the crap, lol), but where are the lvl119 shurikens? We have a A grade in throwing. Imo, sange should be a instant JA on a 3min timer. With high lvl shurikens, this can reach near ws levels of damage on crits (Innin from the from front), not to mention the tp gain from an instant 5 hits. Ninjutsu is nice, in theory, but there are no magic attack on our katanas. Magic burst and skillchain damage boost traits are nice, but under what circumstances would we use this in today's XI? A self-skill chaining capabilities would solve this.

I feel like devs don't care much about ninja... Only major adjustment we got was sange. The most useless skill ever for now (compare to other merits). And definitely, Mikage should be a job trait. Also, its about every debuffing stuff (ws, weapon's procs, spell, ninjutsu, blue magic, JA...) should stack.

While not a stance, I welcome this^^ http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...337#post507337

I just was some use for shurikens; they were such great weapons at lower lvls, hopefully these elements are solid.

Well, we will see it... Soon? I don't know. But new shurikens will be welcomed.
