5.08 is just about to hit and even if Ninja gets buffs, the real concern should be the already announced job rework / deep adjustments in 5.1.

I'm sure I'm not the only worried about what could happen to our current Mudra system, it needs small improvements (remove bunny, shorten clipping with less mudras per cast or just boost potencies to warrant such clipping) and it does not need a complete overhaul for the sake of dumbing the job complexity.

Mudras are the one defining aspect of ninja, no other job as an identical mechanic, dancer steps could be considered something similar but they're definitely not same. The dance steps work great on Dancer but they wouldn't fit on Ninja even if you shorten the gcd between steps, it would kill the fast paced aspect Ninja offers that many and myself included love about the job.

I don't want to delve further into this as there are plenty of threads with good suggestions on how to improve Ninja and the mudra system, but I just want this post to add to all the others who share the same concern for something that could possibly DESTROY this job's legacy which still has many strong foundations despite its debilitated current state.

Please SE, don't go too far and end up killing the identity of this amazing job.
