Deciding between NIN and SAM?

[Galvuu]

Do you prefer slow but steady, or flipping all over the place?

With Samurai you get some flashy sword skills, but your character doesn't really move all that much.
With Ninja, you flip around, kick, spin, teleport strike, etc.


DPS-wise, people are saying SAM is superior to all others.

Pretty sure NIN is the god dps class. It's always had one of the most powerful raid dps utility tools, good personal dps and synergy with the tanks.
NIN is like, the one ubiquitous job in all progression/endgame/speedrunning content since like 2.5, no?
I know this was true for Midas, for Creator and I believe for 2.4/5 too. Not sure about Gordias, but I'm guessing it was also the case.

Hmm if it's that strong maybe I'll do Nin first then sam second.

Yea, Nin may not be as "strong" as Sam, but as far as group dynamics go, it is much more valuable.
