Ninja got buffs on certain skills when Square realized they were incorrectly coded as physical damage rather than magical. So they upped the potency when they fixed it so ninjas wouldn’t feel bad when the outgoing damage was lessened as a result of not getting the benefit from the slashing debuff and dripping blades trait.

Not exactly an outright buff, as the job started stronger than they expected, but still an instance of imbalance between what they intended for its power level vs utility.

So far the NIN "buffs" have been nerfs to them. Bhavacakra got 50 potency to get the skill to 600 (From 550 to 600), but lost about 90 (Was 687.5+) potency from the dripping blades trait alone. And the same goes for Doton (Used to do 400+ potency and does now 360). Again, this is only from the dripping blades traits, not counting the slashing that might've been added to them, dont remember if it did at that time.
