A Ninja without Throwing...

[Karbuncle]

In my opinion.

i think its because due to NIN's natural DPS thanks to Haste and Dual Wield, The only way to make the throwing/Sange useful would be to give us an Easy Supply of throwing weapons with DMG:200+ Delay:~100 on them (Im exaggerating a little) in order for it to not just nerf NIN's DPS. Because of the Delay in throwing and between continuation of your attacks.

The only way to improve Throwing, Sange, etc, Would be to Break throwing an unbelievable amount, an amount so broken there is just no way SE will implement it.

Its how NIN is in this game, rather we like it or not :|

If you wanna role-play a Shuriken Thrower go look up "Ninja Gaiden", Its a great game for that kind of thing.

Its not that NIN's wouldn't Want Throwing, Or that it doesn't Fit, its just it would be too hard to make it useful in FFXI, because the only ways to do it would be a Nerf to Dual Wield, or an Ungodly buff to All Things related to Throwing, Including an Easy-Steady Supply of Super-High Damage Low-Delay Shuriken.

What's funny about this, is that you're telling me to go play a platform game, instead of realizing that I want to role-play, in a role-playing game.

When did FF not become an RPG? lol...

It can be done, yes nerf dual wield, nerf other things, atm Ninja is a little overpowered actually. Bring some balance into the game, get more flying mobs, get more bosses where backing off or retreating from it, is actually a smart thing to do.

But most of all, answer this one question: How can a Ninja, be a Ninja without throwing?

FF is and always will be an RPG.
