Is anyone else hoping that Ninja is a tank?

An evasive tank, building up it's ability to mitigate damage through evasion and parrying, and using those charges gained up to use other abilities.

You're basically creating a system and set of skills just to justify why a NIN should be a tank. Anyone could do the same for any other class.

It (and here comes "logic" in a fantasy game) makes no sense that a class, built around a real world people or centuries of real world documentation, that focuses on stealth, sneaking, silence and shadows to be the focal point of the enemies attention. They'd be doing it wrong.

Anyway, this is a dead horse that was eaten by another horse that then died and was beaten by a zombie horse with a stick.
