That gear is thrown into Coils and other raids, which means the loot tables get bigger, harder to manage, and less chance of you getting your set pieces. If SE actually stuck to their formula, they could of just thrown NIN into the MNK category for gear (like they are doing for gear from 2.0 to 2.3) and would of been fine. Like if Dark Knight ends up being a DPS, it could be thrown into the Maiming set with DRG. It keeps things clean and the loot tables less hectic than they are now. It only gets worse from here if SE decides that certain jobs need be under certain stats.

Ever heard the story of "If you give a mouse a cookie?"
I facepalm so hard at this post. If they use DEX, then they give them the Aiming gear, it's as simple as that. Which means no increasing Coil stuff, they'll just be using the same stuff as BRD. THINK before you post please.
