Is NINJA a freaking tank!?

[Solrak]

Don't blame my thinking, first read my post.

We are already waiting for the claimed rouge class, ninja job but my question is: Is NINJA a freaking tank!?

Let me put this way, when they showed the video you can see and ability were you jump and place yourself at the enemy head, do something and go back to your place ( kinda jump... And omg, freaking awesome )

Well... Think about it because I'm pretty sure this ability needs to be done from the front... I can't see it from any other perspective, do you guys!? And in that thinking, the only job that can be in the front is a tank ( can't see an ability for a dps saying - can only be executed from the enemies front )

What's your opinion guys!? Am I far from the truth or I found something!?

Maybe it's the need arcanist with 2 jobs but this time dps and tank.

Naoki Yoshida said it's a DPS.

[Solrak]

Pretty sure he said the class was a dps...

You are reading too much into it. The move is performed from the front because the ninja is solo in the video. Ninja is confirmed dps by development.

Again with the Rouge class. Try an exercise, point one finger straight down on each hand. Each time you lower one hand, the other goes up. Place the finger above the "R" key and start typing. Now you can spell R-O-G-U-E correctly.

Lollie, I know he is soloing, but imagine it in game... That move is meant to be cast from the front... From any other side it simply is going to look kinda strange... Imagine a dog tipe enemy, or one that is long, performing it from behind is... Strange... That's my opinion.

And again, pretty sure they confirmed the class is a dps, nothing about the job

Ruined mirage, sorry for the misspell, English isn't my main language so I ca have some errors, thanks for the correct

He has confirmed that both are DPS. It would make absolutely no sense for a class to be a DPS and its only job to be a tank. Yoshi has also said, numerous times, that Ninja as a tank is simply ludicrous.

Tell me where YOSHI told that it's going to be the only job... Come on guys, YOSHI loves to give big and exciting surprises!!! And again, post exactly where they told that both things are dps... Pretty sure it just said the class is... ( can be my mistake cause I'm pretty excited about this hahaha)

Yoshi also hasn't said that they're going to be giving players free subscriptions and that we'll be able to create our own city-states to depose the existing ones.

Just because it hasn't been said doesn't mean that it's going to happen or is even remotely *likely* to happen. Yoshi announced Rogue and Ninja and then said that we'd be getting new healer and tank *classes* (which, given the game's model, also means jobs) with the expansion. If the devs had any plans to give Rogue a second job, you can be damned sure they'd have said it somewhere.

Seriously, it's like people need an explicit statement contradicting their wild theories before they're willing to accede to common sense.

They have in fact confirmed ninja is a dps numerous time, and if you want to use a comparable, spineshatter and dfd also animate hitting the mob from the front on pin point targets. You can hope and dream all you want ninja is not going to be intended to be a tank in this game.
