Changes I would like to see for ninja in Stormblood

Dude, Smokescreen and Shadewalker are DEFINING traits of Ninja that make them so desirable in pretty much any content outside of Drex, this includes, Primals, POTD, Savage and friggin Alex Normal.
Smokescreen can save BLMs and Healers from aggro death, Shadewalker allows you to direct even more emnity of existing mobs or mobs the tank can't grab easily in order to improve the engagement efficiency. You can save bad pulls by smart usage of Shadewalker and Smokescreen.
It doesn't take Savage content to figure ouy what you can use these for, just an imagination and tactical acumen.

Guess it's just my bad/good luck that I was never asked to use them or was never asked why I didn't use them. I remember one time I used them on my own in the Vault when I got it in leveling roulette recently. The tank really didn't know what he was doing and the healer was in constant danger. Well that might just be DF. Perhaps they just don't know what to ask for.
But again with dot durations being short as they are I really don't have as much time for my imagination as I would like to have.

I thought Shadewalker was used to punish those pesky BLM's who keep jumping in front of you on the dps meter.

nah man it's to stop those pesky BLM's from ripping aggro at the start of the pull with their amazing 18k+ fire 4 crits, because very few use Quelling Strikes

Well if Archer/Bard wasn't so boring to level I'd have it. Besides the only time Quelling was warranted was either the Tank is bad or the Tank is undergeared therefore bad. Which then I revert to the 2.0 rotation because the Tank can't keep up with me.
