So, now Monk/Dragoon have to compete with yet another class?

Well, that is another concern. There's already a lack of desire to take melee DD along on certain encounters. Including another melee DD class, a new swankier one, is only going to add to the existing woes of Monk and Dragoon.

Exactly, as someone who Mains MNK atm I'd be more concerned about a Ninja stealing my spot, more than them stealing my gear.
