"balancing" some jobs

[Ransu]

They really do sound like a troll though. By most people’s standards, they spout thoughtless takes one after the other and has no self-awareness. It’s fine to be wrong on occasion, but they’re different and will argue semantics to the bitter end instead of reflecting on their statements.

Here are just 3 recent examples of the takes they proudly proclaim, two of them on this very thread :

’’Shukuchi sucks for escaping’’
I’ve played a lot of NIN and I know for a fact that Shukuchi is hands down the best escape ability in PvP.

’’NIN damage is by far the lowest’’
No.
- NIN’s 1-target burst very potent with a simple Bunshin>Assassinate>Mug>Mudra setup;
- NIN can AOE very well because of Goka being a 20K AOE dot;
- If their team is focusing a target, a NIN can simply Mug>Forked Raiju>Fleeting Raiju them for an instant 4 seconds-long double-stun, leading to an easy kill or a Purify burn.
- NINs worth their salt fight out of melee range 90% of the time which makes them the safest melee to play, especially when you consider shukuchi.
- Finally, if you don’t think NIN’s LB is a little busted, you’re probably a NIN main.

’’WHM LB is fine’’
I won’t entertain this statement.

There are a ton more such takes, but I think I proved my point enough. That’s why I now choose not to reply to them as I learned why people called them a troll. You might think it’s not in the spirit of a forum to ignore someone, but as I already explained, I avoid nailing Jell-o to walls.
I’m not here to tell you what to think. I’m explaining why their reputation precedes them.

He's also the same guy who said fire was viable for BLM lol. Take anything gserpent says with a grain of salt.

Shukuchi is good when it works, but there are plenty of tines where I will use it and immediately have cover blown due to AOE or having a cast on me land. In which case, I'm often a sitting duck. It absolutely has helped me get away from enemy parties in the past, but it's never a guarantee and fails as an escape just as much.

If you use it right 99% of the time it works perfectly as an escape. Yes the tick rate will take you out of stealth sometimes which sucks, but with sprint you're already far enough away anyways that it doesn't matter.
