NIN at 90? Easy or hard?

Don't exactly have much time to play the game anymore; I just want to know how the different jobs perform before I dedicate what little time I have to playing one. Already found a Tank (Warrior), Ranged DPS (Machinist), Magic DPS (Summoner), and Healer (Scholar) to main, just trying to figure out which Melee (currently split between Ninja, Monk, and Samurai) to main.

Sorry for asking questions.

It's funny; this is the only MMO I've played that I've really had trouble getting a class figured out. Every other MMO I can figure out what I want within a day at most, but FFXIV? Been nearly a year, and I'm still looking for a melee job.

You seem to like the easiest jobs in the game (though I think WHM is much easier than SCH, at low levels SCH seems easier because Embrace actually heals a ton proportionally), so while NIN is easier to optimize (IMO) than the other melee, SAM on a base level is easier than NIN. So play SAM as your melee.

I also think DNC is easier than MCH as well personally, but again that's just my subjective opinion.

Well... it's not so much as I like the easiest ones, as it is me having to compensate for latency on my end. I live smack in the middle of nowhere, and it results in a lot of lag - and button failure - on my end. Hence, less button-intense jobs are kinda what I'm forced to play, on higher-level content such as raids, at least.

Which sucks, because I would like to main Gunbreaker and Bard for high-end content.

Then MCH and NIN are the two absolute worst jobs in the game to play for your ping issues, avoid both of them as much as you can. SAM and DNC are much better for high ping and button failure.

Was not trying to be rude, honestly just get any single job to max lvl and play with people and max spells turned on, looking at how other jobs in your parties play and look helps a ton when deciding what to main.
Plus the more stuff you level the better at you get at it, sooner of later even if you play very little you will suddenly get everything maxed.
I ended up hating my first max leveled job but it made it easy to get my eyes on other jobs I had not even contemplated playing just by looking at the job being played by other people in end-game content, if I didn't do that I would have been in undecided limbo with no end in sight.

To be fair, leveling DPs is a massive pain in the ass in FFXIV. Not everyone can grind Bozja hours upon hours.

Just doing Daily Roulettes every day while farming level relevant FATEs in queue is more than good enough to reach max level on every job in a reasonable time, especially for super casuals.

I'll give Dancer a shot, then! I admit, I never really gave the job a shot before; I'll try it out when I can!

I think NIN at lvl90 after they fixed Raiju it's okay, I still hope that Weaponskills do not eat up Raiju Stacks in the future and Hyosho Ranryu should be unlocked with lvl50 (and give it a buff on lvl76) but aside that it's okay

I imagine it can be pretty hard to initially pick up until you have the muscle memory for mudras. As someone that's played the job since Stormblood imo the only hard part about the job is during the 2 minute window in the event that a lot of mechanics are happening just due to TCJ occasionally falling at an awkward point in a fight. (it's not really an issue I've seen pop up in savage/ultimate, but for sure happens in EX trials) But overall the job is pretty simple.
