Ninja: Walk in shadow.

I wouldn't bother arguing with him at this point. He believes it will be DEX just because it causes the amount of people lotting to be uneven. He thinks SE will overhaul stats just to cater to this. It is hard to take it seriously now. Best to let them think what they want and let 2.4 do the talking.

It's not really overhauling stats, though. >_>

[Nexxus]

it will be INT, for their Magics attacks/Breaths !!!

Errmm yes it is, its not just a simple changing of wording, it completely changes how the current aromoury system works. Do people seriously not understand why the current stats work as they do, there's a lot to be said for how intuitive this system is.

but but but but but but but but but teh dex imbalance guise? lol

don't get me started on aesthetics

You mean like how the phrase "affects physical ranged damage" doesn't actually mean "affects physical ranged damage"?

Could you elaborate on this, please?

This post makes no sense.

Just because Ninja might use Dex, doesn't mean that it will share this sort of gear with Bard. Monk and Dragoon both use Strength, and they have completely separate gearsets as alternatives for each and every photo you just posted.

AF - Draken/Temple
Myth - Wyrm's/Melee
Syrcus Tower - Guardians XXX of Maiming/Striking
i70 Dungeons - Hussars/Fistfighters
i80 Dungeons - Hero's/of Light

Well, intuitively, an attack like Shield Lob or Tomahawk, where you clearly throw your weapon, should count as ranged. I mean, every other game I've ever seen counts thrown weapons as ranged. And they're certainly physical attacks. Yet the stat that "affects physical ranged damage" does not affect the damage of these ranged physical attacks.

The Mnk/Drg gear set difference isn't one of aesthetics. Mnk and Drg have differing defense priorities (post 50) and as such, needs different armor sets, yet can share the same jewelry pieces.

Now this could and would probably be extended to rogue/ninja if it is a dex based class, but atm we just don't know. My money is on str though since I have to throw my unused soldiery somewhere lol.
