    Everyone is neglecting the other thing dex does.

    Dex increases Parry and blocking.

    Maybe Ninja is a tank, and gets Dex bonuses for parry?
    Seeing as how we lack the agility stat...

    Given the values necessary to increase parry to the point that it can be counted as a reliable, regular decrease in damage, I'm guessing no.

    NIN would need seriously insane amounts of parry to be a "parry" tank, and equally insane amounts of STR to ensure the parties actually do something. Then there's the fact that magic damage can't be parried....
