Objective comparison of Mnk and Nin difficulty to play ?

[treuhavik]

How is that? GL3 once up is up.. On the occasion it goes down it's not "difficult" whatsoever to get back up, just do the same moves you always do or pop PB. There's no added difficulty in that, it's not technical in any way. Mudras require perfect execution every 20 sec for the entire fight, you really can't compare that to GL3, they are totally different mechanics.

It isn't difficult, but time consuming. Once GL3 goes down, so does your DPS, considerably, and with out PB, you'll be hurting longer than a NIN who messed a Huton cast - they aren't losing a direct damage modifier.

Ideally, where I think nin should be is below mnk sustained but still pretty high, and below drgs max burst but still decently high. It should be in between the two on those spectrums. All 3 should be very, very close in damage over the course of a long fight.

100% agree with this. IMO, that's where NIN was, DRG just needed some love.
