    Until SE fixes the UI and puts TP bars in it (they have no valid excuse not to do so since you could just replace MP with TP for classes that use it and therefore not create larger UI which is one of the excuses been used), until then if you want Goad then you ask for it. The Ninja rotation is quite complex and has fairly high chance of messing up mudra's when not concentrating on top of being close combat so doesn't have the same luxury as bards and other ranged types...so if you want TP ask for it.

    You could make a macro that can take half a second to click which says "Need TP" or something instead of dumping everything on the shoulders of other classes because you can't be bothered to click such a macro. Tanking classes according to most of my friends is one of the easier jobs in game so ask for TP as part of your job instead of forcing mine to be additionally being keeping track of your skill usage. If want me to know when you need it then SE can fix this very easily by adding TP bars to the party UI but until then ask for it or you wont get it.

    If do not like that then too bad, cry me a river...but I have no intention of keeping track and counting how many times you use your skills when Ninjas already have a crap load more to keep track of than tanks do and it only takes you maybe half a second to click a macro which asks for TP. Seems to me everyone telling Ninjas to count the skill usage of other TP classes and telling Ninjas to add this to the Ninjas already quite tricky job are the ones being lazy not the Ninjas who saying that you should have the courtesy to ask for it when you want it.

    Boo hoo. Rotation is extremely simple. Overcomplicate it more.

    Isn't good to lie, Ninja's rotation is easier than Dragoon's. You can go on auto pilot for most of it. They even have the luxury of not needing to be positional outside Trick Attack.

    Also why are you acting like we don't want the TP on the UI? Generalization much?

    You forgot to include reading the chat log. Clearly it's much easier to read the chat log, figure out who just asked for Goad, and give it to them than to have basic situational awareness.

    If you want someone to ask for Goad, make sure you put it in a macro that has a /p letting them know that they now have Goad, because they can't be expected to recognize it on their own.
