    Ninja - Feedback & Suggestions

    I've fallen in love with Ninja all over again since I stopped playing DPS back in the ARR days. However, I have a few suggestions and feedback regarding the job that I hope will be taken into consideration for the future;
    • During Ten-Chi-Jin, the Fuma Shuriken should bounce between all targets within range. The reason being if you use Ten-Chi-Jin in an AoE situation, that is the one ability that will not have any AoE functionality in an AoE Mudra Combination. Awkward.
    • Stealth/Hide should have some form of Combat functionality added.
    • Shukuchi should have an option to be targeted in your characters forward direction rather than the camera direction, similar to Reaper's displacement ability.
    • Hyoton should be reworked as it's currently only a noob-bait mudra.
    • With the addition of Hurajin, I think Armor Crush should be reworked or removed/replaced and have Hurajin take its place.
    • Rework Huton(Mudra, not buff). With the addition of Hurajin, I feel like there should be an emphasis to use Hurajin instead of applying it as a mudra, and have Huton(Mudra) do something in addition to applying the buff, or do something else entirely.

    Short and sweet. I hope you agree! If not; please elaborate as to why you don't!

    You didn't mention the dumb run and therefore I'm obligated to disagree with the entire thing.

    And, where should that extra AoE ppm (i.e., potency per 2 minutes / TCJ) come from? I see no issue with an AoE-applicable ability having some faint degree of focus damage.

    Stealth/Hide should have some form of Combat functionality added.
    That would be Suiton, except that it doesn't require you to hit an extra button and drop half your movement speed to then use Trick Attack.

    Shukuchi should have an option to be targeted in your characters forward direction rather than the camera direction, similar to Reaper's displacement ability.
    Sure. Why not?

    Hyoton should be reworked as it's currently only a noob-bait mudra.
    It's a tedious pre-combat cast worth very little now but it's not "only a noob-bait mudra."

    With the addition of Hurajin, I think Armor Crush should be reworked or removed/replaced and have Hurajin take its place.
    Sure, but I'd rather see it usable outside of the combo, too, for an immediate return to speed after death. Outside the combo, have it grant 30 seconds of Huton regardless but deal only (Huraijin's current) 200 potency. Comboed, it should deal Armor Crush's potency.

    Rework Huton(Mudra, not buff). With the addition of Hurajin, I feel like there should be an emphasis to use Hurajin instead of applying it as a mudra, and have Huton(Mudra) do something in addition to applying the buff, or do something else entirely.
    I'd be fine with turning Huton into a Bunshin (or "Huraijin" - a "man of wind and lightning") that's only superior to Raiton/Katon when Phantom Kamitachi is available or if one is currently in downtime, but let's be real: Huraijin is a "I done goofed (and died)" recovery tool, not a basis for a kit.
