The Ninja Superthread

[Viridiana]

Now my question is: do Ninjutsu spells like Katon scale off our INT state? In other words do I need to place points into INT to make those skills more powerful? I'm really confused because they say Ninja's scale off of DEX but does DEX affect the fire, lighting and ice spells you cast?

P.S While I'm at it, what's the best Job for a Rogue/Ninja? I assume Leatherworker?

All of your skills, even the magic ones, scale off of DEX. INT does nothing for NIN, and, unless you're soloing, neither does STR (just to head that one off). Now, Raiton and Katon are affected by a BRD playing Foe Requiem, though, which really the only thing we have in common with the casters.

Edit: And if you're going to be serious about crafting, you're pretty much going to want to level all of them. See the Disciples of the Hand forum for details.
