Is ninja confirmed the only new job?

Well i dont see bards getting mad if there isnt a DRG for the piercing debuff so i guess it wont be too much of an issue.

Also from the sounds of it, ninja might be somewhat lower on the dps pole to begin with, having less positional requierements and such.

Yeah, I'm going to assume it'll be below DRG and MNK for melee dps, but on par with or slightly above BRD.
And if their elemental ninjutsu damage is boosted by BRD's Foe Requiem, that could be very interesting indeed...
