Seems we have an answer on the 'lore' vs. 'new player friendly' NIN option ^^

After posting various threads about if Ninja would be locked behind the main story quest, and reading/writing on the pros and cons of both, it seems we have an answer:

Seems the rogue quests go up to level 30, just like normal, and the NIN quests take over after that up until level 50. So, it seems the rogue and ninja will operate the exact same as every other class/job combo. Is anyone disappointed with this, or are you happy it is available to everyone including new players? Personally it doesn't matter to me much but I'm glad the game is very inclusive of new players ^^

I'm just mildly bothered by the Ninja trainer's face. He looks like he wouldn't even laugh at the funniest thing in the world

Ninjas tend to be cold blooded assassins, that is actually quite understandable

I beg to differ.

Has it been confirmed that Yugiri is the questgiver in the Ninja storyline?

If so, that's fine by me. I really liked Summoner's story for the fact that it felt much more relevant to the Main Scenario, and had a feeling of being more on its own side than Limsa Lominsa's.

I was planning on RPing my Ninja character to be kind of like Shadow or Amarant anyway.

This is a surprise?

"Rogue level 30 / ??? level 15"

They're not exactly throwing us a bone here, are they? >< lol

Seriously. I really wish they'd let us know what other thing we have to grind to 15 in preparation for Ninja. A smart bet might be Pugilist, but I could also imagine something like Arcanist or Thaumaturge for those semi-magical mudra skills.

They even mention "the vital energies of the land, the air, and living beings," which sounds like Conjurer.
