Dragoon, under the shadow of Ninja

[dday3six]

You have youtube, search for ninja dps... it's not hard to find.

Ninja has access to high potency attacks and low tp requirements. The fact their may be a small difference between the exact values doesn't change the fact that they use high potency hits like dragoon does. You're arguing that Ninja and Dragoon attacks aren't the same, you're arguing semantics.

I'm saying the flat numbers are not the whole picture. I used the potency difference between Ninja and Dragoon to help demostrate that.

You seem to be trying to redirect with talk of semantics.

Just to add onto this, ninjitsu and mudras are off GCD. No decent ninja would ever stack skill speed and Fuuton would reduce their skill cooldown to around 2.10 seconds. This 2 second spent performing Ninjitsu becomes negligible when done inbetween GCDs, especially with the ninjitsu itself is also off GCD.

To clarify I'm saying someone who is unnaturally fast could theoretically execute Ninjutsu in 2 seconds. Most people are going to do it in about 3, however. The key point was that using Huton does not directly deal damage. So, while Ninjutsu is off GCD, it cannot be woven into a rotation as other off GCD's can and it takes about a GCD to preform Ninjutsu. That all boils down to spending roughly the time of a GCD for an action which does not deal damage. This is actually part of the reason Monk out damages Ninja using the standard 3 minute window.
