so wich class/job shares a gearset with rog/ninja?

[Velhart]

Shield Lob, Tomahawk and Piercing Talon disagree with that.

That changes nothing. Ninja is confirmed as a melee DPS. Tossing abilities doesn't help your argument, unless if you want to talk about any throwing abilities Rogue/Ninja actually does have.

going by what they showed unless they omited one someone is sharing a set with rog/nin



the question is,is it mnk/pug or brd/nin. i could make cases for both but none of the new crafted sets scream monk or bard to me.

That big, fat, red ring!

Those purple earrings!

etc etc.

I wish there would be also Chakras for Monk again in your list

I didn't take the time to read every post because I just wanted to throw in my 2 cents, but I'm thinking Nin is going to be more inclined to be related to Monk. In Final Fantasy XI Sam/Nin/Mnk were always kinda bundled together when it came to gear due to how they are far east related and the relation to the martial arts. I could be wrong, but if I were a betting man, which I'm not, I would put my money on Mnk being the job that is most closely related to Nin.

I personally can't wait for the realease of Rogue and Ninja as Thf and Nin were 2 or my favorite jobs in Final Fantasy XI. I just wish that Nin were going to be a tank job rather than pure DPS, due to the evasiveness of ninja and thief/rogue. {Utsusemi} {Can I Have It?} ( ~.ø)b

For everyone that thinks nin should use dex you need to ask why?

Why rework the way an entire stat works when we have a system that is working fine? to make it like other games?

Changing dex to include ninja damage just complicates the whole thing for no good reason. It is extra coding that does not need to be done, it is a wast of time.

[Kiroh]

It's going to be monk. I don't know why anyone would expect SE to completely overhaul their stat system for one job, but no it's going to be STR based, not DEX. NIN is not a tank, it does not need parry/block rate, it's a melee DPS, it will use STR.

Maybe I'm remembering this completely wrong, but during a live letter months ago didn't YoshiP more or less comment "WHAT GEAR DOES NIN SHARE? LOL I DUNNO BUT MAYBE YOU SHOULDN'T GET RID OF YOUR MNK EQUIPMENT NUDGE NUDGE WINK WINK FLOOR STOMP"?

He didn't say MNK, but he did say melee.

Another possibility is that the gear is semi glamor gear with DoW, GLD/MRD, GLD/LNC/MRD, All, All, All as the equip requirements.

The 2nd picture's left and right sets seems to be showing a long and short version of the body or legs (hard to tell which the skirt is part of on the left).

You guys are stretching.
