Ninja but like Magical DPS

[trustme]

Me and some friends came up with a class with the idea of ninja basing it off of Kuja from FF9 and we don't know what else to do or add so i lefted a link to where you can look at our literal powerpoint and u can comment on it if you think theres anything that can/need/should be changed to make since with to game.

Cute reminds me of when I first joined the fourms

As for your class reminds me of old SUM with a Rdm flair
Not the worst Idea seems you guys thought to some extent as to this class
How would each lvl experience would go is what I would ask but I did see some
5 seconds is a big no I understand what you are going with but its too long for players
Your gauge generation sounds like it will be insane this was a big problem in StB
I would like to see more reasons to use the gauge
alot of Dot and buff management I love the the idea might be alot for casuals but hey gotta see how it plays in real time before deciding
Also gonna have to see how this all lines up with everyone's buff seems like it would be a constant debuff things like this will sacrifice the classes overall dmg
so its gonna be a hard fight to pick this over a bard or DNC not say its impossible just something you have to consider
If you got friends I would love to see what the CD timers are the buff and debuff duration and pots
it would help me gauge better but thats the nerds in me
the idea is there it can fit in FF definitely so I would say keep at it but can it keep up with other classes is a big question i have here when you continue past 90

though.. every Ninjutsu (except Fuma Shuriken) is magic damage ^^

until ninja pulls out a rasangan or a spirit gun imma keep going

until ninja pulls out a rasangan

We got chidori in 6.0, so rasengan is basically confirmed for 7.0.

Alright i got some of what your saying and made adjustments with gauge generation and a 5 second cast.
going down the list starting with gauge generation
-since i wasn't really there during the StB days i won't fully understand but looking back i see that yeah the gauge is just there doing nothing for awhile so i might try and make work like machinist or reaper's gauge where your building up 2 gauges spending some of one to build the other. Also some moves would spend the gauge like OGCs ex,"Bhavacakra", "Blood stalk".
-The dot and buff management I kind of toned down so now only 3 of 5 dots will have a party buff attached(i still don't know what buffs to have) and as a causal myself i do want to do something with this play style to make a more causal friendly but sadly my brain wants to add more but realize I'm making a minute long burst window so if have an idea shoot it my way.
-When I comes to damage that's out of my ballpark cause I barely attention to my own damage i just play the class, so I want say the damage would be between a dragoon and red mage.
-"If you got friends I would love to see what the CD timers are the buff and debuff duration and pots" don't fully know what your asking here, but all the buff and debuffs have a 10s timer which I can be changed if need be.
I appreciate your interest in this job idea hope you can help me flesh it out so maybe a dev could glace at it.

I was asking if you could brainstorm with friends as to the cooldown timers and
buff duration but 10s buffs aren't bad they tend to be a solid window and SE loves to have that
If you want to consider dmg here is a small guide 100 potency = a range of 100% of your main stat as dmg so if its 200 that equals 2x your dmg etc
its rather simple but when yo get into crits and direct it gets a bit wonky
but use that as a gauge for your dmg and then determine how strong each skill will be at each major lvl (50,60,70,80,90) cause SE doesn't really go by each lvl

I've been here dude no worries but as for the Devs considering it its gonna be a eh maybe
then they gotta consider it and is it worth etc etc but don't feel discourage there is always a chance.
