The Ninja Superthread

[Arkenne]

Enmity control skills? Whats the use of it, really?

Thats because you are only thinking of "good tanks" and even with good tanks it IS useful, you know?
Lets take for example our buddies the WARs.

We start up with a 20% attack power boost from the get-go, because "Venoms are nothing like you've seen before" (sure).

This thing and the NIN opener means a LOT of a SH!T of a TON of thread generation. Specially when TA, DwD and Duality combine together. (Which could happen in the very first 15 seconds of the battle).

Not all Tanks will actually be able to keep up with you, really. But leaving aside bad tanks, with Shadewalker our buddies the WARs can comfortably open with Storm's Eye combo instead of Butcher's Block. And so we can be that one crazy NIN that can go John F*cking Madden with our BFF WAR pal.

It is also very useful in the open world, since you can dump all the blame on your chocobo (yes I was that kid).
Smoke Bomb could use some tweaks, tho.

(Or you could be that guy that pulls before the Tank but throw all the enmity on the Tank himself and wipe the raid)
