    Personally, I like the new NIN

    I love the mudra system and TCJ. It feels like I can actually push the limits of the job without being hamstrung by higher ping.

    I get that a lot of people don't like it, that it feels clunky, not sure how though, it's smooth and predictable, no more rabbiting because you needed to beat the GCD. No more having to throw it out basically as soon as it's up.
    To me it has a really nice ebb and flow.

    Now you can think about the next step, align it better with fights and buffs. To me it feels really good, so much that I am considering going NIN full time now.

    Shadow Fang is a bit weird, but I'm getting used to it, and it doesn't really bother me that much. Just another aspect to refine and polish.

    I just really like these changes. Just wanted to speak up for all the people that do like the new NIN since people without an issue rarely complain or comment unless prompted.

    When you have lag, every action is an adventure.

    I agree with you on all points. However, the new mudra system feels lacking and slow to me. Yes, it makes it easier to line them up with Trick Attack, and it isn't as ping reliant as before. But, it also leaves me with the Dancer dilema every time my mudras go off cooldown. Do I go for the 5 second high potency gcd, or go for 2 2.45 second gcd? Is it better to hold them, or to use one of them? It makes me feel like I'm wasting a gcd everytime I cast a ninjutsu, and wishing that this new system was an ogcd I can shove between 2 weaponskill gcds again. Also, every time I am casting my ninjutsu, I keep wishing that the second and third mudra never had a cooldown. I understand why they do have one. I just wish it was quicker.

    Other than that, and the sometimes buggy Ten Chi Jin, I'm happy with the new changes as well.

    I dont quite agree

    You make good points but I believe the point of a rogue class is to be unpredictable and fast. There are already a lot of other classes out there for predictable slower paced combos and actions, as such having one class which is fun to press fast and multitask, even if a bit weird, is nice.
