The Ninja Superthread

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't NIN ALREADY have as many positionals as DRG? So in that sense, they already are in line with other DPS. I don't mind DRG and NIN positionals (as they are now).

I'll correct you, it doesn't have the same amount.
It has 2 positionals, yes, but they share a cooldown together and they even have a cooldown at all.
So you use one positional every minute. Even DRG, which is not positional heavy uses at least 5 per minute.

I really don't think it'll be on the same level as monk. Possibly the same as or a little more than DRG.

snip.

I was going simply with "number of skills with positionals", as opposed to "how often they are used", but I see your point.

And as I said, I would be annoyed, but overall alright in the end, if NIN has DRG-level posisitnal requirements. But I'm not happy about this change, and I still feel like it's un-needed, due to the fact that I always felt freedom of movement was a class feature. But I realize that just because I find dance around the mob like a crazy person to be the most enjoyable way to fight, doesn't necessarily means anyway, let alone the devs, agrees.
