Rogue/Ninja Starting Class?

[Souljacker]

You do realize how much extra work that is to make 2 separate and distinct jobs instead of one base class & the job specialization, right?

Here's my take on this statement - yes it would be some work. But that is what they are paid to do, right? They are making money to make an ongoing, engaging, and fun experience for us. That's why we open our wallets. If the only argument to doing something that would clearly help not only the balance of, but the perception of, the game is "sorry, it's too hard", then SE might want to revisit the skill of their development team. I wouldn't expect it overnight. Maybe 1-2 jobs over the course of a couple of patches or even an expansion, but at some point it will have to be addressed and Yoshi-P himself has acknowledged that though he's been pretty quiet about it lately. I guess we will have his answer when ninja and rogue hit.
