By adding another Melee set for ninja it will throw off the gear balance even more.

It sucks being a Tank or Healer in a coil group because there is always another tank or healer that you must split drops with. The typical coil set up is usually 2 tank 2 healer, 2 ranged 2 melee. Most groups take something like PLD WAR SCH WHM, MNK, DRG, BRD, (SMN or BLM). Now then the tanks and healers are almost always behind on gear when compared to everyone else due to having to share drops. With them adding yet another melee set for Ninja prob share accessories with mnk and drg the drop pool becomes even more bloated and it will be even harder to gear up.

Here is hoping SE merges, mnk, drg, and nin gear into 1 set since they all use str.
