Just to add onto this, ninjitsu and mudras are off GCD. No decent ninja would ever stack skill speed and Fuuton would reduce their skill cooldown to around 2.10 seconds. This 2 second spent performing Ninjitsu becomes negligible when done inbetween GCDs, especially with the ninjitsu itself is also off GCD.

Also someone posted a T8 parser a while back

Take what you from that, it's only one fight parser I've seen to compare the two, but they were both at equal gear AFAIK.

And lastly, ninjas do not gobble up their TP to the same extent as monk; they'd never run out unless they were trying to (by going off their normal rotations) or spamming AoEs.. Only two of Ninja's non-AoE attacks cost more than 50 TP, and they're DoTs. Monks have at least three 60 TP attacks, two of them being required in their typical rotation. Might not sound much, but it does add up in the end.
