How will Ninja Gear work.

[Einheri]

Seems pretty straight forward to me. All MNK (non relic) based gear before 2.4; so tome gear, CT/ST, First and second coil, will have DEX added to it and class/job requirment expanded to include RGE/NIN.

So if we look Allagan Cuirass of Striking. It will now be equipable by MNK and NIN and include @29 DEX.

Your classes attack damage is based off Attack Power wich is derived from either STR or DEX + determination. Ranged skills for melee STR classes aren't based on DEX; Shield Lob, Tomahawk, Piercing Talon.

So monks with this gear will have their ATK power increase based on STR and NIN based on DEX plus determination. MNK will still want striking, maiming, and slaying accessories. While NIN will want Aiming.

IMO- The Tool Tip for STR and DEX will be changed for NIN as this has been a major soouce of contention for the STR v DEX debate. Keeping it for the other classes is fine as it helps new players understand they either want STR or DEX.
