I seriously hope SE doesn't repeat this nonsense and keeps NIN as a DD Job in FFXIV when it's implemented.
agreed. and the idea of a NINJA as a tank is pretty silly to begin with. They're supposed to be killers that go unseen. Why would they specialise in BEING SEEN???
like I said above though, they could make a new job for PUG that would work well as a tank. Their "shadows" could just be 100% eva chance and it would be a good way to make counter actually useful.

SAM could be a tank, but I iimagine it would be very similar to warrior in play style
