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

Trick Attack

He clearly stated that the tank and healer classes/jobs would be implemented in an expancion

Also unlike the mnk and drg it's not reliant on its position to do damage.

Or something to that effect.

Yeah, I know... But here is where my second question comes in.... Where is thief!? Thief is one of the most iconic jobs in all ff games... and a 3rd one... With the first new class (arcanist) they gave us 2 jobs, why are they going to change that just now!?
