Hello all,

I am posting this here for lack of any other avenue of communication that I have not yet taken.

As of 6.3, ninja's mudras have been bugged and no longer function correctly. This bug also affects all GCDs with a base recast time below 2.50s before haste is applied (2.20 RDM, 1.50 RPR MCH DNC SGE RDM, 1.00 DNC SGE), however as Ninja's mudras have a base recast of 0.50s, they are the most easily affected. The bug is far more noticeable in instanced content than the overworld or housing districts.

On the second day of patch 6.3, the following threads were made on the English official forums.

Bug report: https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...eems-to-be-off

DPS roles: https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...h-ninja-mudras

The former was moved to 'Duplicate Bugs' 2-3 days later and immediately closed with no other communication until the 6.31 patch notes listed it in the 'known issues' section over a week later. The latter has seen some updates since its creation including other players saying that they have experienced the same issue.

Outside of the forums, the Ninja channels in The Balance discord server have created a thread where players may post their own evidence of the bug.
