That's something I'm hoping they'll realize is a bad idea to force on all melee at some point down the road. Hell, the pos reqs are the main reason you get either super awesome MNKs and DRGs and ones that barely pull their weight. You can try to get all e-peen about it but should also realize the performance difference shouldn't be as huge as it is.Quote:

That is a *huge* benefit.

Expose would work as a debuff they apply on their own an maintain to increase their own damage, but, as a group buff, it's hugely overpowered.
I mentioned some examples in the notes. I would want it to be random, as otherwise you'd have to divide it by mob type or species or something along those lines. Problem with doing so is that the ability becomes "useless" or very situational. I hate playing to the skinner's box model, but if say Dusty Brew gave you +attack, or +skill speed or restored some TP you'd at least have to find a way to squeeze Steal into your rotation to get that Dusty Brew. Even if you don't, getting a Dusty Grenade or Potion is not much of a loss.Quote:
You probably want to list some of the stuff you actually expect to use with this and whether it's completely random or actually dependent upon the target.
The point of Accomplice is to act as a substitute to an aggro dump. I will admit that if I were to design THF I would want a Tricks of the Trade-type of ability. It's inclusion would also play on people's FFXI nostalgia because most do remember it for being able to transfer aggro.Quote:
Even ignoring how pointless enmity assistance abilities are within ARR, I can assure you that 90% of the use for this will be in trolling people in your group.
Dispelling at some point will enter the field of mechanics the devs use for boss fights. I am anticipating that. The goal here was playing into dispels without actually giving THF a dispel. Not to mention I'm sure someone out there wished to be able to steal stuff like King's Will or Celerity.Quote:
This is another one of those worthless abilities that just doesn't work the way that ARR is designed. There are not enough abilities that an enemy can use to buff themselves with to actually give this ability any real use (it'll be less than a gimmick ability since you wouldn't be able to use it on 99% of the enemies in game), and, if the devs did decide to include fights where buffs need to be removed, they would need to be so strong that the THF would never benefit from them. The buffs that bosses get have to be worried about because they're big increases. No one cares about the small ones that a player could actually benefit from.
I'm up in the air on that one. No CD but with a big TP cost, or moderate TP cost but 45-second cooldown. Thoughts?Quote:
Also, you didn't put a CD on this.
I wanted Jutsu to be more about utility, and admit Katon is there as a damage Jutsu purely to keep someone from complaining that Jutsu is just utility and situational.Quote:
The way you'd implement this is having Fuuma combo with itself to provide the relevant Jutsu, though I'm not sure why you wouldn't just have it give the Jutsu as a non-combo benefit. Even if the Jutsu abilities are supposed to be especially strong, you could just as easily put something like a 7.5-10sec CD on it to prevent Fuuma>Jutsu spam (assuming that the Jutsu would actually do enough damage to make that viable).
It's right underneath the description. Jutsu Tokens.Quote:
You haven't listed any of the abilities that would be used or if they're even attacks/debuffs/buffs/utility.
Fancier animation and better mobility. The whole idea of NIN is mobility and having more ranged options than a DRG or MNK would. Or should I say, stronger ranged options. Fighting a NIN would be difficult knowing they can give you the runaround or open a gap. I also never really gave Draw-Cut and Bunshin Sappou cooldowns, though they definitely would have them. As an added bonus, NIN would have the easier time LoSing spells. thanks to being able to reposition themselves while dealing damage.Quote:
You're just doubling up on Draw Cut, which you *also* provide at level 50. Not entirely sure I see the point unless you just want to give NIN another use of it with a separate but fancier animation.
I could change THF's Throat Stab back to being 120 potency unless you're behind the target (then it would be 300 potency) to further accentuate this.
If THF and NIN ended up doing exactly the same damage, NIN would overtake THF based on the ranged advantage both in PvE and PvP. NIN also has more utility and mobility, which in PvP alone are incredibly powerful. I'll admit this is a tough balancing act and sort of wish I had a better frame of reference for DPS in that regard.Quote:
The advantage of pseudo-ranged damage capability (it's hard to say exactly how much you're giving them since you didn't define Jutsu in the least) doesn't really outweigh a dramatic loss of DPS, especially since you're already giving THF a 5% increase in damage as a passive benefit along with 2 attacks that would directly increase it's end DPS (you're giving NIN 2 movement utilities, a pseudo-nuke copy of an existing attack which is presumably on a long CD to justify the high damage, and an AoE; none of which are really going to provide an appreciable increase in DPS).
*shrug* I hate evasion tanks and blink tanks, and from a concept standpoint I don't see THF and NIN working as anything other than DPS. That said, I also know there's a lot of THF fans (including those jaded by how badly it was treated in FFXI) that would balk at the idea of THF being a class.Quote:
On a more abstract note, you're providing 2 DPS jobs off of the same base class, which doesn't make any sense really.
The underlying goal of my suggestion was to deal with the issue of "where NIN would come from?" while giving the people that want their second shot at THF what they want. NIN's aesthetic is too unique to be easily placed anywhere other than a quick-moving dagger class. That's largely why my suggested Rogue can equip stiletto knives and kunai. Sure, someone will be mad that NIN wouldn't get shinobigatana or a crapton of jutsu like in FFXI, but as is always the case, something's gotta give.

If you look at what the devs have changed in 2.1, they actually want the flank/back aspect to matter *more*. It's not like DRG even has all that stringent positional requirements anyways: Impulse Drive requires back and Heavy Swing requires flank; everything else simply doesn't care. MNK is the only one that really has complicated positional requirements. Having a single positional requirement is effectively the same as having no positional requirements because it still allows the player to just stand still for the entire fight if they don't have anything to explicitly dodge.Quote:

A more interesting variation on what you plan here might be a variation upon what I'm did with Pilfer/Ill-Gotten Gains, wherein the stolen items become a resource to fuel your other abilities. Furthermore, because jobs have the benefit of being able to add additional effects to existing abilities, you can add "Mug" style procs to combo finishers (since "Mug" has always been pretty token as well) where you are either guaranteed to gain a steal resource or just have a change at it. You could even allow for the accumulation of multiple stacks (I'd cap it at 3 at most) so that you can save up to spend on burst or have some abilities consume multiple stacks.Quote:

By doing so, you can provide multiple ways to consume the stolen resources that the player can actually choose: one ability could recover hp/tp (possibly hp with 1 stack; hp and tp with 2 stacks), another act as an AoE, and another act as a damage buff (poss req 3 stacks and consume all of them). Fill it out with one CD that deals a bit of damage and provides you with a stolen resources guaranteed so that players can have direct control if they so choose, and you just have to add a fifth ability to round out the entire job.
I think it's less important to play to someone's nostalgia than it is to ensure functional performance. Enmity transference/utility *really* isn't all that useful and you're already providing Quelling Strikes as an enmity drop via ARC. It's redundant as a personal enmity tool and unneeded as an group enmity tool (and, once again, eminently trollable). You would only be including it as an artifactual ability from a single game within the series.Quote:

I'm doubtful. Silence is *already* limited to only 2 classes (MNK *can* silence, but it's expensive and requires a specific form) which forces stringent requirements on group composition for any content requiring regular silencing. As it stands, the only class with any kind of purging capability is MNK and *that* requires a specific form. The more "required mechanics" that they add to content, the less real choice players have in setting up compositions. If the devs add purging as a requisite mechanic, they're going to need to give it to a lot more classes. Even then, the ability to steal buffs is a pretty worthless gimmick, given how rare NPC buffs are.Quote:
Dispelling at some point will enter the field of mechanics the devs use for boss fights. I am anticipating that. The goal here was playing into dispels without actually giving THF a dispel. Not to mention I'm sure someone out there wished to be able to steal stuff like King's Will or Celerity.
A lot of it depends upon whether it's on or off the GCD, how often the devs intend purge mechanics to be needed (the CD on stuns was set based on this), and what exact limitations are placed upon the stealing of the buffs. The ability to steal buffs opens up a whole can of worms that has to be tackled (and even adds to the de/buff database size since you need to label every buff as to whether it can be stolen or not; there's already a purge attribute on them because some debuffs can be cleansed while others can't).Quote:
I'm up in the air on that one. No CD but with a big TP cost, or moderate TP cost but 45-second cooldown. Thoughts?
If the non-fire Jutsus don't deal damage, they'll be pretty much worthless, which means that NIN itself is going to be pretty much worthless since there isn't really anything else that you're giving NIN to increase its damage while giving THF some pretty impressive buffs. KB, weight, and Blind are all relatively mediocre as status effects so there's really not much that they're doing if they're not doing damage on top of it at the very least. They're even less useful given that you have to use 2+ abilities at a time in order to access the desired secondary effect.Quote:
I wanted Jutsu to be more about utility, and admit Katon is there as a damage Jutsu purely to keep someone from complaining that Jutsu is just utility and situational.
You didn't really describe them. No durations/potencies/distances at all.Quote:
It's right underneath the description. Jutsu Tokens.
Except that it's still the *exact* same ability. It does the same thing with a fancier animation, and you're *still* giving it to them at the exact same level as the ability you're cloning. Either give it to the class or give it to the job. Doubling up on an ability just because you want one job to have a fancier animation is just lazy design work.Quote:
Fancier animation and better mobility.
Except you're not really providing additional ranged damage. The only improved ranged capability that you're providing is the fire jutsu which requires a full melee combo access it and a slightly extended range on an attack with a 60 sec CD. You didn't give NIN stronger ranged options. You gave them stronger options to keep them at range where they end up dealing negligible damage (their auto-attack will be melee and their entire ranged "rotation" is Fuuma>Fuuma, which is a monumental 120 potency/ GCD).Quote:
The whole idea of NIN is mobility and having more ranged options than a DRG or MNK would. Or should I say, stronger ranged options.
Ranged/melee fusion classes never work out well because they always end up being melee classes (if they need to be in melee to maximize damage) or ranged classes (if they can deal sufficient damage at range). It works out even worse when you're trying to staple it to an existing class that's already entirely melee based, which is what you're doing here.
Which is only remotely useful in PvP. Since PvP gets its own bonus abilities, it would work out better to have the bouncy abilities that you seem to want NIN to specialize in be PvP abilities rather than actual class abilities that take the place of real functionality that they need.Quote:
Fighting a NIN would be difficult knowing they can give you the runaround or open a gap.
NIN isn't a tank so...Quote:
As an added bonus, NIN would have the easier time LoSing spells.
If THF ends up doing more damage, since you're basing them off the same class, no one is going to bring a NIN because THF would just be more useful. At the same time, NIN becomes the de facto PvP job because you're providing so much annoyance/mobility that allows them to say "fuck you!" to the world. You're not creating 2 jobs so much as a PvE job and a PvP job.Quote:
If THF and NIN ended up doing exactly the same damage, NIN would overtake THF based on the ranged advantage both in PvE and PvP. NIN also has more utility and mobility, which in PvP alone are incredibly powerful. I'll admit this is a tough balancing act and sort of wish I had a better frame of reference for DPS in that regard.
As I said before, this is exactly why I see THF leading into NIN. The only reason that anyone can ever come up with for THF to not be a class is because they just decide by emotional fiat that it shouldn't be. There isn't a single good reason from a *developmental* standpoint for THF to be its own class if NIN is also implemented. There are *loads* of reasons that they *should* be. It's just kind of arbitrary stubbornness (generally by people that played THF in XI and want THF to be just as important as every other FFXI class in ARR no matter what).Quote:

And in pretty much all of the cases where people separate THF and NIN into separate jobs, the thing that gives is the quality of the developed class itself. I'd rather tell the people who are hung up on THF as a job to stuff it and make a class/job that's well designed and fun/interesting to play.Quote:

Nice ideas Kitru, you put a lot of thought into this. (go team thief as a class)
I do like the idea of ninja being a ranged class tho from Duelle. Since its "thing" was always "throw" and "duel wield"
Rough idea for Ninja job (not based off any class)
1.Throw-ranged attack based on equipped weapons (Katanas/daggers have status effects build into them that are applied with the throw as well) - no cool down
2.Ninjutsu - some magic based ranged attack that does something - generates 1 shadow orb for the user - short cool down
3.Some ranged AoE move
4.Shadow Strike- ranged -consumes all shadow orbs to do burst damage to the target-damaged based on number of orbs consumed- animation would be clones of the caster appears around the target and attacks for each orb.
5.Assassin -ranged -a clone appears behind the target do do heavy damage then disappears -15min cool down -
12-22-2013, 12:45 PMDuelleNinja have actually had several weapons associated to them. Shinobigatana and kunai are only two of them. There's also Kama, Bo staves and a claw-hand weapon whose name I cannot remember. The devs will have to stick to one because of the armoury system. That said, the alternative to tying NIN to a rogue-type class would be making a class entirely built around one of the aforementioned weapons. The problem there is that you'd run into the same issue of not knowing what other job should sprout from this class because, as mentioned, NIN's aesthetic is very unique.Quote:

Hell, for all the flack huntards used to get in WoW you could at least count on them to shoot at the mob and kill it in a decent amount of time (trapping, kiting and other things, not so much).Quote:

You forget that tank swaps will likely become more common in 8-man content (and, as 24-man content grows it may play a role there too), and with Provoke not keeping you at the top of the hate list for 6 seconds like in other MMOs, the enmity boost will have a purpose and be very helpful.Quote:

Since you touched on player choice, the same thing could be said for interrupts, where BRD's entire selling point to many seems to be Blunt Arrow.
What made spellsteal great was that it gave players access to unique buffs that you could get nowhere else, in some cases stealing buffs was key to winning the fight and/or notably increased DPS.Quote:
The ability to steal buffs opens up a whole can of worms that has to be tackled (and even adds to the de/buff database size since you need to label every buff as to whether it can be stolen or not; there's already a purge attribute on them because some debuffs can be cleansed while others can't).
I wouldn't risk giving NIN 4-5 abilities that do the same thing but with different particle effects. And I think people would be more miffed about that over having utility available to them.Quote:
If the non-fire Jutsus don't deal damage, they'll be pretty much worthless, which means that NIN itself is going to be pretty much worthless since there isn't really anything else that you're giving NIN to increase its damage while giving THF some pretty impressive buffs.

KB, weight, and Blind are all relatively mediocre as status effects so there's really not much that they're doing if they're not doing damage on top of it at the very least.
This point I'll grant you. I was looking at Jutsu as follow ups do your DPS rotation rather than standalone abilities (the original charge system was also conceived around this idea).Quote:
They're even less useful given that you have to use 2+ abilities at a time in order to access the desired secondary effect.
I purposely left those open for discussion. For example, Fuuton's knockback is intended to give you room but also to peel, but I'm not sure if it should have a bind attached to it like Fluid Aura.Quote:
You didn't really describe them. No durations/potencies/distances at all.
Good point. I did think of this along the lines of how WoW warriors worked, since they also had two abilities that did the same thing (Charge and Intercept). I've thought of giving Bunshin Sappou a 10-yalm range, but I felt I'd have to lower its damage potential if that were to be the case (can you imagine a NIN landing a 300-potency attack from 10 yalms while teleporting behind you?).Quote:

I also did it to avoid the unquestionable pointlessness of Mijin Gakure.
Aside from the fact that none of the potency numbers are set in stone (keep in mind my main is a tank, and don't have much of a frame of reference for what ability potencies should be for DPS classes), I may be inclined to agree here. I could focus NIN entirely on mobility and just scrap the attempt at giving them more ranged abilities.Quote:
It works out even worse when you're trying to staple it to an existing class that's already entirely melee based, which is what you're doing here.
Except said PvP abilities are riddled with lousy gimmicks with a few fundamental skills (Purify).Quote:
Which is only remotely useful in PvP. Since PvP gets its own bonus abilities, it would work out better to have the bouncy abilities that you seem to want NIN to specialize in be PvP abilities rather than actual class abilities that take the place of real functionality that they need.
As far as actual class abilities, NIN doesn't have much to stand on based on how it was built in the FF series. FFIV's Edge didn't have much other than throwing skills and AoE black magic with poor scaling. FF1's NIN was a thief with black magic. FFT's NIN was basically all throwing. FFVI's Shadow was throwing and a dog. FFXI's NIN became a caster with dual wield and token throwing skill.
You have to reinvent NIN either way for it to work in an MMORPG. The major hurdle is the fact that the armoury system combined with the 5-ability rule severely limits how far you can go with it. You can't give it a massive list of standa-alone Jutsu because you can't really squeeze it into 5 abilities. You can't give them a monopoly on dual wielding either. You're limited to the type of weapons they can use.
At one time I was thinking of suggesting that almost every rogue skill change when equipping the NIN crystal, but I somehow don't see SE doing that when they do get around to giving ARC, THM and CNJ their second jobs.
You're treating this as if it were unreasonable, when it is more than reasonable to want THF to be a job like it was in the past. With the discussions I've seen about THF, yes I can picture people being VERY pissed if they decide to make THF a class so that NIN can sprout from it.Quote:
As I said before, this is exactly why I see THF leading into NIN. The only reason that anyone can ever come up with for THF to not be a class is because they just decide by emotional fiat that it shouldn't be.

It's just kind of arbitrary stubbornness (generally by people that played THF in XI and want THF to be just as important as every other FFXI class in ARR no matter what).
THF is one of the original six jobs of the series, and I don't see why it should be doomed to obsolescence (which is what happens to GLA, MRD, CNJ, THM et al) and vanish off the map once you hit lv30. If it were one of the oddball one-appearance-in-15+-games jobs, I might incline to agree with you, but one of the original six jobs?
That only gives because the developers involved were obsessed with being different for the sake of being different. That's the reason THF in FFXI was reduced to Treasure Hunter whore while NIN went on to deal damage and shrug off hits that could tear a PLD to shreds. It makes sense to extremely separate classes in single-player games (FFT's Thief stealing everything not nailed to the ground while FFT's Ninja throwing and dual wielding), but MMORPG should not be afraid of design that overlap. We're going to see overlap when ARC's second job gets introduced anyway, so it's not as big a deal as some may think.Quote:
And in pretty much all of the cases where people separate THF and NIN into separate jobs, the thing that gives is the quality of the developed class itself.

Any extra job that ARC gets is going to have to be DPS because there's nothing else that ARC could turn into without turning a number of its abilities into completely and utterly new abilities (at which point, if it does happen, sets precedent for any job being able to be turned into anything because you could just rebuild the basic class abilities completely to suit your needs) at which point you run into the inevitable issue of one job rendering the other redundant. There isn't a support primary role and BRD is explicitly balanced against the DPS capabilities of the other classes (it has the lowest DPS standing still, but that's because it has the absolute best DPS in any scenario that involves movement because they don't have to stay in melee or stand still for extended periods) so, if they *did* get a new job, it would be *required* to have better DPS than BRD to offset the "loss" of support, which would put it outright above the effectiveness of the other classes (since it still has all of the mobility that BRD has).Quote:

As to SAM and NIN being drawn from the same class, the only thing that links the two is the "Japanese" theme; it's like saying that THF and PLD should be based off of the same class because they're both (in the way they're implemented) European archetypes (many of the classes that FF uses are Western archetypes as opposed to Eastern ones because the devs drew a *lot* of inspiration from D&D, which is *very* much fantasy derived from European myths rather than Asian).Quote:

About the only thing that's "ninja" about a katana is the shared Japanese origin, which, to make a similar simile as before, is like asking for a THF to use a greatsword. -

Hello,guys first thing first Yoshida already confirmed many many times they are not going to wait to add new class/job untill expansion pack...He said class/job will be add through numbered patches which means in 2.2 or 2.3 or beyon something like that...and about expansion pack yes probably there will be new class/job also but as new race as well and first expansion will come in 2 year...But can be come out a bit early...And nopw about thief,thief will be job if belive what yoshida talk about it...He said thief will be come his own class which is will be called rogue or scout ( note:not confirmed yet )...However will find out soon,but of course first can be add musketeer as well and then rogue class,but since game need rogue more than musketeer so probably rogue will be add first :)

Since the game operates under a 1:1:2 ratio of tanks to healers to DPS, there need to be more tanks and healers before more DPS are added (hopefully, 2.2, which is likely going to bring the MSK, will also have another healer and another tank since that will perfectly balance the ratio).Quote:
