How will Ninja Gear work.

Yea, no. So basically what you are saying is, SE will change stats around every time a new class/job comes out? Also, Samurai has not been announced at all yet. Wait till this weekend before saying that.

That's correct, however, there has been hints at Samurai. From the image of Nobunaga Oda (a well-known Samurai warlord of feudal Japan) during the Lore panel, to Soken's G:\\SQEX_Proj_M\Proj\Samurai folder. Sure, it isn't a direct confirmation, but it is a massive hint, and is very likely an indirect confirmation.

Why couldn't Samurai be DEX like the Ninja? The "Gun Class" has been in data-mines since 1.0, why would you assume the Samurai is imminent? There are two confirmed additional classes for the X-pac. One healer and One Tank. There could be 10 classes added but atm all we know for 3.0 is One healer and One Tank. DRK SAM and RDM are the most requested classes as far as I can tell. I would assume we will eventually see all three and many others.


DRK for the 3.0 tank. Heavy Armor, Magical Infused Attacks, Great Sword, Life Drains. That is 100% speculation.

FF11 players will want any class from that game in FF14 changed because it doesn't "feel" like said class. That is 96% fact. : /

Gods have mercy on Yoshi and the devs when they implement red mage.

Not really? I'm pretty sure they addressed this by saying Soken does work for more SQEX projects than just XIV and unless you can come up with something that "Project M" stands for, I can't really see this as confirmation for Samurai. I'm not saying that they definitely won't be putting in Samurai, but a directory on his computer with a vague name that doesn't seemingly relate to XIV at all is really flimsy. Samurai is a pretty big class in general for the FF series and it could be from any number of things SQEX is working on.
