Surprisingly, everything I wished for MNK (no GL, less/no positionals, Sabin blitz inspiration) is happening - I'm really excited to try it, I may shelf NIN as my melee dps job.
Same. I've always wanted to main MNK but it's not fun in its current iteration when compared to other classes. I love playing NIN and the combination of its speed and utility make it fun to play. Positionals in games like Xenoblade/Xenoblade 2 work well because the entire game is designed around that type of battle system. Final Fantasy XIV isn't.
