Thread: My Patch 2.4 Rogue/Ninja Leveling Tips

Did we ever confirm its truly STR? DEX? A mix?

Anyone interested in filling their coffers should form a tank/healer buddy combo and sell DPS slots for dungeons on launch day for people looking to skip the wait and get ahead of the pack. You could easily make a small fortune

Genius, pure genius lol.
Thinking of charging 5-10k per run lol
So in 10 runs u get 50-100k pocket change.
So make a party with a tank/ healer bud- and make 2 dps slots for NIN buyers.
Profit and extorttttttttt!!
Then just roll with friends and level up nin with all tht nice pocket change u got in the 1st few days.
In pf " WTS dungeon spots for NIN, got some gil and want to get ahead? Then join up pst for pricing etc."

That's all you would charge? I would be going high end 5 figures. Or even do it hourly based for 6 figure sums. If people want my tank, they are welcome to it but I need an incentive to not level my NIN.

Don't forget roulettes, and guildhest's 1st-time bonuses.

Since most likely a large percentage of people will be leveling Ninja, making dungeons queues nearly impossible for DPS, a giant serverwide FATE swooping Ninjastorm seems like the most likely conclusion.

Here is a tip. Day before the patch do 16 levequests on one of your level 50s, whichever level range you want to skip the most don't turn them in. When the patch is out get ninja and turn in your levequests when it is time. That may keep you ahead of the curve.

They do slashing damage, which gets a boost with a Warrior in the party (Storm's Eye). Although I'm not sure if this applies to mudras.

If you don't care about leveling any other jobs, start building up your rested XP right now.

It is possible, you can hold up to 16 leve quests at a time in your journal. You can finsh them all on another job and turn them in on the one you want to get the exp on.
