Objective comparison of Mnk and Nin difficulty to play ?

[Leonus]

That's the difference though. The "problems" that MNK/DRG have pertains to boss movement (tank movement, boss turns, etc..). DRG is less forgiving than MNK in this regards. When you factor this with other mechanics (dodging), it adds additional difficulty to making sure you hit your "spot". You don't deal with any of that with NIN.

There is only one "difficulty" with NIN, and it's mudras. That however, is a "controlled" difficulty (for the most part). That is, you mess up Mudra then it's your fault...not the boss mechanics, not the tank's...but yours. The only "uncontrolled" difficulty of NIN is the lag in casting Mudra. I suffer from this a lot on dungeons, and it was ultimately what made me decide to stick to DRG (i really found NIN more enjoyable to play). I just don't have the confidence that I can hit my mudras consistently given my internet connectivity.

2 things.

the second half of your post I agree with and is what I was eluding to by saying "cuss myself out". It's because a failed mudra cast is usually my fault. Not all the time, but usually. Controlled difficulty is a good way to put it. Mudras are also quite easy to mess up.

The other is..
Mnk and Drg positional attacks are controlled in most fights. It's just mnk is punished nowhere near the same level as drg for missing them as you stated (i was a drg main)and mnks just shrug it off. You have to have to be flawless as a drg to compete with an above average mnk. In that sense, should mnk be nerfed? No.

I don't have a particular issue with a small nerf to min, as long as it's that... small. My issue comes from people saying mnk has to work harder and that nin is free an therefore should be weaker. Each class has their own challenges.

I also don't know if you were agreeing with me or not in a sense.

Bad ninja's are not on the heels of the best monks. If they are, then that mnk is not as good as he or she thinks they are. Bad ninja's flub multiple jutsus constantly, don't keep up dots and don't pay attention. If great mnks are barely in front of that ninja... then the mnks themselves are bad.
