Why would they nerf Ninajs?
You're correct, and that's the problem. Certain fights are great for Monk, fight's where you aren't disconnect from the boss especially, but Monks have one huge caveat:
To keep up the damage they do, they have to keep their Greased Lightning 3 up as much as they can and not let it fall off, and with how much SE likes to make bosses "jump", that can be very hard.
Ninja has none of these challenges, infact, when they jump, you can reapply Huton if it's needed. Add in that it has one positional attack (Dancing Edge, is not, the Skill Description is wrong), 10% Buff to everyones damage for 10s per minute, Goad is incredbily helpful, certainly up there with Mantra and the -10% Int from DK, and the AOE Ninja has is better than monks, the class is incredibly good.
In other news, no buffs to the poor DRGs being left out in the cold,![]()
Sorry, this isn't Guild Wars 2, nerfing one class does not some how buff another. If anything, that nerfs entire parties since they can no longer do as much as they once could in content. Stick with waiting for your buffs sir, you don't want the entire community despising DRGs just because they led to NIN getting nerfed.
Well I guess it's safe to assume the vast majority of people here never played SE's previous MMO title then...Sorry, this isn't Guild Wars 2, nerfing one class does not some how buff another.

Not exactly. You can have classes that are overpowered across levels of content. In this case a nerf to the strong would be a buff to the weak.Sorry, this isn't Guild Wars 2, nerfing one class does not some how buff another.

Example: PLD vs WAR in 2.0 -> 2.1, SE could have given only a slight buff to war and then brought PLD down to the level they raised WAR to. Would have had the same effect as straight buffing WAR. And WARs had cleared all 2.0 content in 2.0 so don't say it would have ruined everything and we'd all be stuck on caduceus.
I seem to recall when WAR cleared t5 back then they got no praise, but their healers sure did. And it was only the best of the best WAR who ran coil in the best statics then since no one else would take them.
WAR were beyond broke back then. A slight buff and a nerf to Pld would not have had the same effect.
