The Problems With Ninja In Endwalker

[Shut]

There is a Pov of a NIN doing Hydaelyn Ex, he didn't die, delay his burst or needed to use throwing dagger, so if someone can do it others can too.
For Zodiark yes it is annoying with the 8 sec bind who come regulary.

You don't like Raijin you can, everyone can have his opinion but don't use bad arguments like :

- Can't delay raiju or i lose the stack : that's false you can use Phantom kaimaichi or throwing dagger, the better you get with your position the less you will need to do that (depend of the tank also).
- Super hard animation lock : that's false.

Nin was the third i leveled because of all those lies, because yes if you truly couldn't use any skill while holding raiju and the animation lock was long i would also scream about it because that would be the opposite of what a NIN is and why i play Nin.

I'm not sure what you've actually read through my post.

I'm not saying "options" don't exist. But the fact that those "options" are pathetic and that they are here to make up for something that shouldn't be an issue in the first place (dealing damage at melee range) is what I pointed out.
There are here to fix a problem created by that new gameplay, not here to optimize your rotation around a specific mechanic during a fight, and the best of them can only make it for 1 GCD. I'm not sure where's the lie.

Concerning the "super hard animation lock", having 2+ short animation locks back to back is no better, and we have yet to see a fight with stricter movements and positioning. Mechanics forcing to play at max melee range have been seen countless times in raids and ultimate before (90% of them being perfectly timed during burst window), the only mechanic remotely close in current EX trials being EX 2's chakrams. Wait until we have another light rampant, shiva/titan junction, Final word, weight of the land, annihilation, and pray the god of ping.
I'll add that having to backtrack 3 yalms + animation lock is crap for disengagement, and only ninja have to deal with that as long as the "options" are terrible damage-wise.
