Thief>Ninja/Dancer Class/Job

[Calypsx]

I highly doubt they'll do a straight "throwing weapons" class because there's not much variation you can do on throwing weapons that isn't just a copy of what ARC already does.

To be honest, there's not much you can do with any new Job due to how this games limited roles and restrictions on certain mechanics this game has. Giving a stealth to a dagger class wont make it mechanically much that different than a monk or other positional melee classes we receive in the future.

However a new Dex based ranged damage dealer will offset all the Strength ones we have at the moment and the many ones we are for sure going to get in the future. Having Archer and Musketeer as the only two ranged physical Dex classes might be a bit disappointing.

What I was really thinking is combining Ninjutsu and throwing weapons. Using magical ninja art scrolls to perhaps inflict status effects or give small buffs to itself or allies while using ranged bladed throwing weapons.

I think combining both throwing weapons and Ninjutsu can make a unique Job that's different from Archer if done right. Literally Ninjutsu has endless possibilities on what it can do.
