NINJA and ROGUE confirmed

[MartaDemireux]

So... What stat will Rouge/Ninja be using?

Almost certain it would use STR. Rogues are Twinblade users (as I outlined above) which are a type of sword in most games they show up in. As with their correlation to PGL in the live letter I'd say it would be safe to assume they use their gear sets as well. With the current exclusion of THF it would be fitting to put them in the Fuma set, too.

I know I can't be the only one who thinks it would be pretty lame to play DRK branched off of MRD?

Actually I think I'd like to see DRK come off of GLA. That way we have the present theme in FF of PLD vs DRK.

However I could more likely see a double-handed sword (両手剣) class (perhaps 太刀士 "Long sword user/specialist" for the Japanese name, probably Knight in English? I know it's what the Japanese use for PLD but we could still use it ourselves) which turns into the Samurai (tank) and Dark Knight (DPS) jobs.
