You had to use both raijus back to back before, and with both of them being gap closers it created awkward situations where trying to use raiju would put you in danger of getting hit by mechanics due to both the animation lock and forced movement.

Now you can choose to either use a gap closer raiju if you actually need the movement or one that doesn't move you.

Overall it just frees up NIN's movement a lot and also means you don't have plan your mudra usage around mechanics as much.

No. After heavensward, SE committed to never changing jobs until a new tier/raid is in progress. So, they might change mid patch cycle if there's no new ultimate and no new savage raid, but obvious that doesn't apply to 6.0x. It might apply to 6.1 if they don't release an ultimate.

I mean...we already had an emergency hotfix to NIN's potencies in the middle of 5.0 due to it being in a phenomenally awful spot.

They said they wouldn't make significant changes to jobs mid-raid like revamping how a job plays akin to what they did with putting NIN's mudras on the GCD in 5.1.
