This. I remember my WoW days before this game came out. We had some excellent melee players, but our rogues and fury warriors hands down died more than anyone else. You're just subjected to more stuff with less time to react while being squishy at the same time when you're a melee damager.

^This^
And also if the trick attack debuff is already up, please wait until its almost done before applying your own, or better yet, sneak attack instead.

Ryans is on point about this. But also just wanted to say... this thread has a lot of pretty salty people, lol.

Thank you.

What was the point of this thread, other than to disrespect other players? Also, it does not belong here, it belongs in the DPS Subforum.

By the way, I recommend you read the Forum Rules a few more times.

lol - maybe I'm having a bad day. This Thread was not nearly as bad as the "Dear Summoners" thread. The OP was very trolltastic still. I laughed when you called me a stick in the mud though. Thanks for the reminder to lighten up.

but seriously. This thread DOES belong in the DPS class thread o.o

I tank, Craft, Gather, and talk to people. Guess which Frums I read? Tank, Items/Crafting/Synthesis, DoTL, DoTH, and for some reason, this accursed Troll Library General Forum.

That's true but in some heavy dodge fights like Odin, you have to keep moving all the time, sometimes I use it in order to keep some DPS while moving away from 6 boss AoE. I guess that it depends on how fast you can cast your mudras because server lag might give you trouble too.

I don't get why all the hate on NINs, but bad players are everywhere and in every class, people make mistakes all the time. No one is perfect.

My only personal issue that I have with that particular fight is remembering which side I last stood in (I also forget which debuff went with which side... So I'll be like "Uh... which color did that come from again?"). Though avoiding Mortal Gaze is stupidly easy.

Dear ninjas,
Please continue using your stuns every time they are up, with zero regard for what skills the mob/boss is using. It's perfectly fine to build the mob's stun immunity immediately causing the tank & healer to have to work harder. Pass the note to your DRG friends as well.
