    for starters, taking two ninjas would slow down the LB Gauge. NOT viable.
    Ninja trick attack is often used as an excuse why the class is noticeably weaker, claiming it as "utility" that increases raid dps, but at the same time, people overlook the utility of battle litany and mantra for drg and mnk respectively, which brings pretty solid raid dps increase themselves.
    next, tp is usually only a problem for ninja, which means taking second ninja would just mean theyd spam goad on each other, which defeats the purpose of even having it for "utility".
    yes, ninjas have slightly higher utility, but you cant discount other jobs utility as if its not there. why not just give ninja battle litany and you can have another high potency burst ogcd if you arent appreciative of your own utility, because ninjas are doing slightly higher, most of the time equivalent and in some cases, even less damage than dedicated support jobs.
    id like to point out that two of the utility abilities, the aggro modifiers, are used once each in an entire encounter. it helps, but its not huge. if we could tangibly and accurately calculate how much dps battle litany gave the raid, and attributed that damage to dragoon like so many do to ninjas trick attack, would drg be "balanced"? doubtful, but its a random thing so people pass the buck off to ninja.
