Is DNC Aiming Gear or Scouting Gear?

[Veritas-Ancora]

Hi, OP again.

It looks like a Japanese site asked a very similar question. Google Translate only works so well, so I'm curious if anyone can give a better translation.

Google Translate:
-Then, 4 jobs including ninjas become DEX. For example, do you consider moving ninjas to another category?

Mr. Yoshida: Please wait for the announcement in the middle of May. It is difficult to understand that the battle system is only one system change. If you are operating for six years after birth, various systems will be linked, and if you change some of them, it will affect other places. It is because there is a possibility of misunderstanding when speaking a part by pinpoint now.

Original:

吉田氏：レンジDPSなのでDEXになるんだろうなぁと思っています。

――そうすると忍者も含めて4ジョブがDEXになりますが、例えば忍者を別なカテゴリに移すということは考えていますか。

吉田氏：これ以上は5月中旬の発表をお待ち下さい。バトルシステムは、1つのシステム変更だけですと理解が難しいと思います。新生してから丸6年運営していると、色々なシステムが連鎖しているので一部を変えると、別な場所に影響がでてしまいます。今はピンポイントで一部をお話すると、誤解を生む可能性があるからです。

it almost sounds like they are going to fully change how armor works?

This is in reference to during the Live Letter at Japan's FanFest, he stated you cannot change one aspect of the game without it affecting another aspect. Them changing the battle system may effect armor, so they might not be able to answer due to work being currently done and issues that have still yet to come up and be worked on.

Basically this is my thinking on the whole announcement of Fan Fest. We won't know why SE did what they did until we see the entire picture.
