#FFXIV #Endwalker #Ninja - เกม
It’s missing the most important reason. You’re the only true rabbit mage! A powerful tool that makes all your foes drop their guard in cuteness
Ninja 2.12 seconds GCD recast also feels so satisfying, not too slow like most jobs and not too fast like Monk, sits perfectly in the middle.
"not too fast" laughs in wow's base 1.5sec gcd, which most people with Haste take it down below 1.10sec haha. Oh and with certain buffs that some classes can give to their own or to party members, or receive from items (trinkets) it can go down to 0.75sec
@@ghozter1 wow doesnt have to weave OCD and their 123 rotations are basically the whole gameplay loop, it goes faster because you have less to think about and almost no decision making. Most of the scaling from WoW is also broken because 70+% of the power comes from external systems, borrowed power and items (like trinkets) so you can trivialize content much faster with gear.
In fact the world first race as devolved into which turbo whale virgins can game the system/RNG enough to match the gear check and sqeek a win through before grinding it to dust the next week with ilvl changes/nerfs because now the people have beaten it Blizzard can actually tune the content correctly... its a joke without a punchline.
@@icholi88 jesus bro, who hurt u. My comment wasn't meant to be negative, I was just mentioning the gcd difference between the games and how I prefer one over the other. I still enjoy ff, also in wow you do have to weave in OGCD's some classes/specs more than others just like in ff.
@@ghozter1 No you fish for procs and pop a trinket every 3 mins or so... WoW has a shorter GCD but I assure you it is also the slower game. I've played that game for more than a decade at a relevant difficulty and curve, wow is designed from the ground up to be as brainless as possible because they conflate difficulty with obscuring mechanics and constant gear checks.
Mythic isn't any harder than most of the game, its just intentionally overtuned and requires you to make 40 alts and funnel money with tokens til you RNG check your way from drops and through the first month or so of content. Ultimates are designed to be cleared with current ilvl from the night of release and everything is telegraphed so you dont need to relie on a billion addons just to know basic execution of mechanics.
Wow gets away with making people believe that top 20+ guilds are impressive instead of just whales clawing for every advantage while dropping enough cash through the shop to buy a literal new car.
@@icholi88 sure, you can have your own opinion. But I'd disagree, that's what opinions are though. WoW is definitely faster paced specially in m+, talking specifically about combat here. I main'd Ninja for ShB and even though the job is fun and faster paced it doesn't compare to the buttons I'd have to press on something like Outlaw Rogue, Fury Warrior. Talking specifically about APM. Ninja and Monk are up there but they're no faster than most of the specs in WoW, and that's not a bad thing just different games.
Ninja is definitely one of the most fun 'specialist' flexible melee dps, and its kit in 60, 70, 80, and 90, are pretty solid.
Ninja also actually feels like it was made for controller, plays great on it, pretty much like a fighting arcade just with more multi combo buttons sprinkled here and there.
Only gripe, Bosses always decide they want to do mechanics on you, the second you press Ten chi Jin.
I just got into FFXIV and recently unlocked TCJ and I feel this….
Whenever I want to show someone FF14 gameplay, I always chose Ninja Gameplay because it truly feels unique compared to all the other melee Jobs.
The concept of Ninja is really cool and proper execution of the abilities is extemely satisfying.
For me it's definately one of the best designed Jobs in FF14.
I level all 5 melee classes together in a way they take turn on dailies. I never expect myself to love ninja more than others because it always seems challenging for me due to the ninjutsu but once u get use to the zero recast time it’s satisfying of its mobility.

"Even on controller" .... this job feels more like it was /made/ for a controller! Dialing in mundras while moving or even needing to do it fast with TCJ it feels like playing a fighting game! Pulling off combos and zipping around. Even with a little practice shikuchi is super smooth. Just need to preset a good distance, slight tilt of the camera and you'll ne bamfing around dodging AoEs like Nightcrawler!
For sure man being a fighting game fan Ninja just feels soo good to play
You don't need shukuchi to dodge aoes it's better to save a raiton/suiton/phantom kamaitachi for disconnects
you can still do mudra and moving on keyboard too tho ?
@@ZelosSama nobody said you couldn't. Everyone's control options are valid. Just saying from personal experience that playing ninja on a controller, feels more like a fighting or action game than it does an mmo.
Nice timing, I started a ninja a few days ago! I really liked the level 30-50 quests
one of the best early quest lines for sure
Definitely agree it's the most fun to play in easy content. It's the reason I've been picking it up instead of my SGE recently (besides healing being kind of boring with a competent party). Ninja was my main back when it released and it still feels amazing when you hit everything just right.
My Job Journey
MNK --> RDM --> GNB --> NIN
Hard stopped at NIN and its been my main ever since
You described it perfectly Desperius! Becoming the Jack of all Trades has never felt better than with NIN right now
How would u compare gunnbreaker, monk, and red mage to ninja. I got my ninja 73 so far and love the fast play. Is ninja fastest out of all.of them. I heard machinist is pretty fast play too
@@Tailionis MNK feels very similar because of the reduced GDC time.
Getting a good feel for your movement and melee combo as a RDM doesnt feel that much different from learning to manage your ranged Ninjutsu as a NIN.
GNB was most important for me in terms of learning/liking NIN. The busy nature of GNB and double weaving forced me to change my hotbar habits. It really helped me get used to managing a lot of oGCD's.
As NIN, there are like a TON of single use abilites you need to track, and if I had started w/ NIN, I know for a FACT I would have developed bad habits (I ignored abilities that didnt work with my hotbar setup early on)
@@devanwc23 ah thanks you! I was thinking gnb would be a good class to try out for more challenge and fun. Sounds like a good time!
Starting off: "I'll poke yer gob for th' code m8 I swer on me mum"
30 levels later: "Tch. Nothing personnel, kid."
its so fun and the pace hits a sweet spot, helping blend up trashmobs or shooting yourself out of danger and bouncing back into your rhythm. Go fighting dreamers!
Thank you for this video!
Made me give ninja another chance and I'm addicted!
I'm a whm main, I started playing ninja as my first melee dps to get the "Zero" title from the event. It has been a blast, dude I love this job, it feels very clicky, the mudras are definitely a highlight and making a full rotation with trick attack-mug and then escape using a Shukushi, which will reset soon if you play well is soooo satisfying. I won't leave my healer, but boy I will continue playing ninja and try to perfect it as much as I can in endwalker
TIL there is a Title call zero, luckily I just start leveling NIN in preparation of my static progging Dragonsong respite in 2 months, should have plenty of time.
I got ninja as soon as possible and made it my main for the sole reason of it fitting my character canonically, but it turned out to be my fav job by a long way anyway.
I wish I knew what that leather cat suit glamour was, and the mask! Looks amazing!
Reasons to play Ninja: flippy jumps, happy bunny buddy for your head
Ninja is the reason why i started playing FF14. I truly feel like Kakashi.. and for my Sasuke lovers ik We come from the clan of Sasuke but Kakashi is the Ninja who uses all elements and has purple lightning
I was originally devoted to BLM and DRG but then I played Ninja, such a fun and versatile class.
The filthy frank intro made this vid a 10 right away
Don't forget they do have a third positional. TA is a rear positional with a difference of 100 potency. To someone who plays it more lax or just more casually it won't matter but figured I would be nice to let others know who wanna be better at playing ninia and who enjoy parsing as there are many peeps who forget to read the info on skills. Overall though, I enjoyed the video :)
I totally overread it as well, thanks for pointing it out 😅
@@DesperiusFFXIV you're fine. I just wanted to leave that there for anyone that didn't know about it. I still enjoyed your video :)
Ninja is my 2nd favorite melee after SAM. It's got great movement and flexible ranged windows for full uptime. Much more fun to optimize than monk (Mnk isn't difficult to play, but the maximum optimization with demolish/twin snakes refreshing and six sided star usage is brutal). I'd love to see monk changed in the future. It's solicited as flexible, but ends up being horribly religious with PB combos and the current Nandi system
Great Video. I love my Ninja
me a crusty old ninja hiding in the bushes... its been a long time coming i can finally play something else! ty4 video!
Absolutely love playing Nin. Its only downfall for me is TCJ locking you in place but other than that it’s definitely one of the most satisfying jobs to play if played correctly
Please someone tell me what that white glam he was using on the striking dummy was. He looked like Raiden
My #1! I just love unleashing controlled fury with this job.
Hey, #Desperius, long time! I appreciate you promoting Ninja! You know I've been a NIN main for 7 years now, through ups and downs. Best and most fun job in the game to me. I actually really like the way it is now and I'm glad you do, too! I'm pretty sure you're on a Euro server(I'm on Crystal DC), but I do hope we can get together maybe on Discord one day and discuss things because I'd really like to hear your thoughts about the game one-on-one. Let me know! Great video as always, my friend!
Can someone please tell me what the face armor he is wearing is?
Been a Ninja main since HW, I don't really play any other classes other than dragoon in pvp and some others in pvp. I've enjoyed every different version of the job I've played, even if Stormblood was clunky, the new abilities were still refreshing. I've been playing it for a long time so I can't say if it's difficult but maybe a groove that might be hard to find at first for some players. I do personally love TCJ, for the fast pace of ninja that almost feels like a dance (to me) TCJ feels like a nice flashy flex. For instance, we didn't have this when Ultimate weapon was a fight, but arms length TCJ when garuda comes out in Unreal feels cool.
What glamour are his ninja using??
Awesome glam, please share the deets!
I know this isn’t really related to the video but whats the hat in 1:53
Great vid ❤ ninja is my fav ... Ps i really liked your black outfit if u have a link for gear that be awesome keep up the awesome work
It is basically the "Late Allagan" Set mixed with 2b Boots
@@DesperiusFFXIV thnxs
Please add the glamour for the videos in your description. They always look awesome. What was the glam in this?
Looks like allagan top/bottom of scouting, 2b boots, and moonward veil!
@@syd8308your actaully such a legend thank you!
You sold me on challenging in normal content. Don't have the time for savage but wanna enjoy normal. So I will definitely give ninja a try soon Despi, thnx!
It is a Gamechanger !
Update: I am so glad I took your advice despi. Now a humble lvl 41 Ninja. Beginning is rough till lvl 35/38 for Aoe in dungeons. But man do I love those mudras. Katon and Raiton are awesome. I mained Dragoon for a while (Dragonfire dive Fire 2; Raiton > Thunder). And for leveling the change to mug and trick attack is very nice. Now I can contribute early on with raid buffs and don't have to wait till Suiton for trick attack. Ninja the first job I actually enjoy playing!
Also job quests are not so generic with the sneaking element giving it the ninja flavour.
Was holding of on Ninja cause of the heavy Naruto influence in this job. But now I'm like: I can be like Kakashi/ Minato (Chidori/ Flying Thundergod). But then I was like the clones are there, but where is my Wind Rasen Shuriken. O yeah that's Hyosho Ranryu (ice not wind but who cares). Now I have to admit to myself I'm a Naruto weeb 😅.
Tenchijin is so fustrating on controller because it's so easy to nudge the left stick and mess up your rotation. It'd be better to have it lock you into position so that it maintains the complexity of safe positioning.
Yeah I feel like they should either remove the “effect ends upon moving” or just lock you in position. It’s frustrating when you try to do a suiton combo and then you accidentally move and it kills the rotation.
As a console player and a raider I can understand it, but being able to move and cancel ten chi jin is very useful during prog. When I have not yet mapped my burst windows properly (or drifted stuff) sometimes I find myself stuck in ten chi jin and having to cancel it to keep myself alive.
Maybe a toggle system would be nice, a NIN gets "stuck" in ten chi jin without being able to move but if they press the ogcd again, the NIN can cancel the move and move?
Anything that "locks" you in place would never be a good idea. People were fuming at the Raijus having animation lock. The devs would probably get actual death threats if it locked u in place for the full duration of it. I personally think they should make it something like ley lines but maybe make it a tighter circle to where u can only use the 3 abilities while inside the circle and u can move to get out if u need to but u only have so long to dump all 3 before u lose the effect.
Terrible Idea, I prefer the flexibility to drop the ability if it means I don't die. Dont make it everyone else's problem if you can't time tenchijin
@@Tailionis Get social skills
Damn, that glam looks tight...
im terrible with ninja. i always think im getting used to mudra so i start pressing them faster and thats when it falls apart. you can press them too fast and your input overlaps with the cooldown. be nice if you could weave mudra so it wouldnt feel so jank at the end of a normal gcd and latency wouldnt matter.
Ninja is the job for experienced players seeking fast-paced & rewarding gameplay. I don't enjoy it, since it's too fast for me, but I hope the devs will not dumb it down. Its OK & even GOOD for some jobs to be fast & complex.
I main NIN and I completely agree with everything you said
What are those blue NIN weapons called? Ive never seen them before!
Seiryu's sanctified daggers
Well, I must admit, I finished to level my Ninja to 90 yesterday but even if it's cool and all, the opener is just a little bit too much for me, I have a tandencie to mess it up (either using Trick attack before Mug, or Meisui before trick attack, Using Kassatsu when I have my 2 Mudra stacksor, because my imput wasn't taken throwing a Shuriken rather a Raiton, Using another skill and lose my Raiju or even Using Bhavacackra over Bunshin well a lot of opportunity to mess up) So When I'll go seriously in harder content (my Hardest clear was Hades EX and my hardest try was E9S, so yeah, I have a long road to do) I'll not take it, a safer one I know better and easier Like GNB, RDM or DNC is my best choice
For an experienced player in Endwalker, Ninja or Dragoon?
Depends on which play-style you like. Dragoon weaves a lot of oGCDs in its rotation while ninja has a bit more complexity and decision making involved in it. Both are solid dps and provide good buffs for the party. However from ff logs it does seem people prefer to run ninjas more in ultimates
Do you guys think SAM will get buffed next patch?
Probably not buffed, since it's in a good place in terms of parsing. It will probably be adjusted since a lot of players on the forums are very vocally complaining about certain changes.
Can’t wait for monk
What daggers are these seiyru?
Yes
I adore NIN but I feel that hotbar setup comment... playing on controller, I'm still finding it so difficult to get a comfortable setup.
Do you use extended hotbars? I find that placing all the mundras, ninjutsu activation, hide and kassatsu all together on one of them makes the dialing in and use pretty easy. I have them set on the same extention bar as my main combos.
Ummm ninja - Naruto >.> . Can't believe you didn't show Naruto 😅. I mean you can use chidori literally. Great video ! 👍🏾
What armor you use for glamour
2b boots
Late allagan pants,chest, and gloves(bought in wolves den)
Dyed black and has some shader mods
please tell me the head glam :(
What's your headgear called please ❤️
I think it is from the new alliance raid.
I came all the way to the comments section because I couldn't remember where I've seen that headgear before, luckily found it :D it's the Moonward Veil of Scouting, bought in Radz-at-Han with the green tomestones :3
🙃 how delightful
I would play ninja but it seems hard n confusing
my ezio glamour is a big reason im playing ninja atm :) i look so fucking cool whilest doing the most damage!
where do i get that veil face mask? lol
ninja is the only class to me besides reaper that feels like it came out of black desert with how fluid the combat feels.
Reaper next?
I've been enjoying Monk through all of Stormblood and my bud in the FC said he was surprised followed by you might like ninja then. The surprise being because of all the changes monk received over the expansions though to me that doesn't mean anything since I came in super late to FF14. So your video has given me allot to think about because even after watching all of it I'm not quite sure where my friend was going with his recommendation. If it's more well-rounded it might be a fun change of pace. I've done Dragoon to 60 and enjoy it's comparatively lax rotations, but with far less OGCD windows (despite the memes, elusive jump is still the most fun gap closer for me... just wish we had two charges with it). And Monk being aggro as heck now has a very special place for me... despite the fact that I'll probably shelve it once I'm done with Stormblood content cause my heart can only take so much chakra. lol
Anybody recognize those gloves?
I feel like the skill floor and mudras scare away the lower tier players and that's a good thing, I also feel like (while it doesn't seem like it at first) it's probably one of the best high difficulty jobs by nature of their resource system and the fact that most encounters are designed around specific burst windows between mechanics rather than endurance.
Ninja is designed to be able to dump all of its abilities in a 30 secs window and then just flounder while jobs like SAM and BLM are designed to build to their burst window (which is much less flexible).
They top the charts now because SAM fell off and doesnt benefit from the raid buffs or scale as well and the raid design team is forcing people into a playstyle that was custom built for ninja (mechanic phases followed by short burst). Given how difficult it is though to excel at the class people don't actually seem to mind their supremacy.
Ninja is in a strange spot. The job has been so different for so long, the people that play it have distilled down to a small group who love it and a large number that don't touch it. The devs are sort of painted into a corner with class adjustments because any changes they make are going to cause the people that love the job to lose what they've become used to.
Thats okay though, not every class has to appeal to every player, NIN is fun and the people who enjoy it enjoy it because of its idiosyncrasies not in spite of them, I hope if the dev team want to touch them they just tweak potencies and let it be the high skill cap class forever.
What do you mean click???
I am a Ninja Main even when everyone left it at the beginning of EW. Love the job. Can't stand doing savage+ content on any other job. I just keep thinking, "Man, this is fun but I'd rather be on my Ninja." OJ+ parses on all content.
I looked you up on fflogs and you literally have one parse from edens verse and it a grey 15 parse as samurai not sure why you feel the need to lie on the internet but you do you
@@tacotuesdays3336 lol. The trolls are real. You don't even know my characters name and are posting this bc you're either bored, jealous, or both.
@@KeaneKamina Not sure if anyone would name themselves mr shiggles in game besides you lol
@@tacotuesdays3336 Zzzz That's not my in game name. Do you name your character in every video game you've ever played Taco Tuesdays?
Ahh, Filthy Frank. I see you are a man of culture as well.
I been playing NIN since it first released, and I love the complexity of the job. It's what drew me to it in the first place! I do find it easier playing NIN on a controller though, less strain on my wrists/hands lol.
ive started my carrer back in 2.2 with the paladin... it got boring. in HW i picked up blm and and bard... since stormblood im a ninja. i tried msh sum and gnb in the progres but ive returned every single time time to ninja. jesus, this job nut :) im just missing my neat aggro support skills from stormblood. but its cool to not sweat on the floor while raiding xD my major + for ninja is: you are lit everything in one. mobile, big juicy hits, physical and magical attacks (just for the asthetics) and, if you mastered the point mark warp, the "oh fuck" dude on the board. cant tell how much i shocked my healers with the tight timings of my warps :P
That's SnK OST, innit?
Western intro…. For a ninja class…. Wait ninjas are cowboys of the east!!!
2 questions, which Weapons are those, and which Assassins creed footage did you show that looked so damn good?
The weapons are the first ARR Relic stage. The AC footage was from the AC 2 Trailer, but it was Upscaled by another TH-camr
Reason 6, of all the job quests and role quests i enjoyed rogue and ninja the most. Couldn't even tell you what happened in some of the other stories. Aside from some bland mandatory stealth sections, the class missions were some of the best parts in 14.
I gotta stop watching these lmao i always go back to start each class over on a different account 😂
I already do :0 best aoe job
Reason #1: Bunny mage.
And that's enough.
I just started playing the game and i decided to become a ninja.
Could that be a mistake for a noob like me? Probably yes but i aint regretting shit
It's absolutely fine, as long as you're having fun
the only reason to play Ninja for me is Hellfrog Medium skill
That thumbnail. I too like "ninja" anime ;3 not like I haven't seen that skin tight purple before ;3
Also been nin since 2.xx and it went down hill in HW into SB so I didn't play it but I lvl it out of habit tbh. Also controller only. Idk how people game with a kbm set up and I'm even on PC now
i love ninja :D i started as an arcanist, switched to rogue at lvl 10 thinking I'd give it a shot, and haven't changed my main since. No other job I've played really compares with the satisfaction of getting my opener 100% and every time I perfectly getting my timing right for burst windows after that. Personally my biggest gripe is I really wish there was a way to macro shukichi to 10 yalms ahead of me or something, I mess up using shukichi to get out of aoes a lot. Def agree with the tenchijin being annoying when you have to move, I've wasted it right before a boss aoe on multiple occasions T.T. Kinda wish hyoton was marginally useful, but ehhh is ok we got hyosho ranryu... Also I was crying laughing at the 89 gear Tataru gives us lmao, hurts so much (not sure if it's better or worse being a lalafell wearing it, hmmm)
Omg same, i started also an arcanist then saw that i could become a rogue and now im lvl 90 and still loving the class. All the other jobs now seem so slow and boring except maybe black mage. With the faster movement and powerful ranged and satisfying burst window it just feels so good to play in any content
No need to shukuchi to dodge aoes just simply walk out of them if you end up losing more than a gcd then prioritize different ogcds for disconnects starting with suiton if trick has less than 20 seconds before it's back up next up being phantom kamitachi then raiton if you have neither of these but really try to avoid throwing dagger if you can help it as it's just bad but better than pressing nothing
@@tacotuesdays3336 i mean like aoes like when im already probably almost too late (ie, i seem to always get 1 vuln from the endsinger extreme 4 rings part, or double planets, cuz sometimes I'm slow to see the pattern and the people around me aren't sure either), ofc i try to walk/sprint out, sure, but shukichi can clutch save me, when I get it right at least.
Like yes, it is usually a tool I use for when I've already messed up and used up my sprint early, but I wish it was a tool that was bit easier to use in that context. Shouldn't need it but would be nice if it was more useable in combat.
I feel like it should be basically on par with reaper's and dancer's dashes, but they don't require the manual targeting. I don't think it should be turned into a duplicate of those abilities exactly either, just would be nice to be able to make a macro that targets based on distance in front of the player? Not sure what else that would be useful for though. sch quick fairy placement?
@@dozingpip3501 sounds like a skill issue tbh
@@tacotuesdays3336 yes i'm saying the skill required to use shukichi in combat well feels higher than it should be, making it almost useless in combat until you get used to targeting it (taking a lot of practice in my personal exp, probs not worth it). imo it should be comparable with reaper's and dancer's dash as far difficulty using it, which it isn't because of the targeting. Sure I can/will also get better at the fight mechanics, but I'd like to maybe be able to use my dash to make up the 1sec delay of me being dumb/too slow sometimes. Dash should be a catch up skill imo, but it just doesn't feel like it is on ninja. Currently the best use of it is to get somewhere faster out of combat and that's it, can't use it for much else.
Reason 1. You enjoy hitting 5x as many buttons as anyone else has to.
Another reason to play NIN: so you have gear ready for Viper
you re german right? :D
I like the NIN for the style and gameplay, and memorising the Mudras is not too difficult after doing them for a while.
But the One thing i Absolutely LOATHE, is the attack sound-effect,
Sounds like im grinding my swords on gravel and stone pavement,
It really Kills the job for me, imagining that.
I know that is very minor or even petty, but it Really does turn me off from playing ninja.
Ah Filthy Frank, I miss him.
Ninja mudras are the sole reason I can't play ninja. They aren't difficult but they feel really clunky to me.
For any console players that watched the video, don't get discouraged by what was said! I main NIN on PC with a controller and it's perfectly fine on controller. I'm currently progging DSR with it as well. Really the only thing that's a little harder is clutch shikuchi movement, but that's a pretty rare thing.
And it has the best LB3
A razer mouse with programmable buttons extremely makes the ceiling a lot lower
The only problem for me you need less than 40 ping to play ninja on full potential to deal 100% possible damage in burst windows. But anyway its much better than monk which is literraly unplaybale without 3rd party tools. One day Yoshi will admit that 99%+ players dont live in server room like he does and do something with crappy netcode...
*cough* Alexander *cough*
I've always loved that they did the hand signs for jutsu.
However, I can't help but speculate that they will remove them with 7.0.
The current trend is to make everything as simple as possible so it's accessible to all casua--EVERYONE! so it's accessible to everyone 😬
I think they will give ninja Jutsu charges and Ninja Tool charges that recharge over time or when finishing combos. Then you will just use those to use a skill instead of hand signs.
Honestly, I wouldn't be against it. But, honestly, I'll probably complain when it happens 🤣
I really hope they don't do that, that would be boring as heck
@@pepekovallin that's the trend: make everything easy as possible with no concern for how it affects fun
I play Ninja on PS5... perfectly, highest dps, 350+ cristaline victories. People really need to get over their old school understatement regarding consoles. With that said I play on PC as well and I don't seed PC being superior in any way.
Either case, if yoy play console you can still play ninja. I will let you know as well that the ninjutsu system is significantly much MUCH better with a controller than a keyboard and mouse.
Cute catgirl
Post your glamour
I hate this huge anime-vibe on NIN, and because of that I find every NIN outfit too boring. But level it sometimes, even if I prefer range jobs
I hate the word "rotation" so much. I prefer playing mmorpgs in a way that you choose right skill or spell for what the situation is instead of using "rotation" that you need to do for optimal result.
I don't know if it's just me, but I think ffxiv ninjas really stupid.
I mean, they don't even use their weapons, they are casting spells like 90%+ of the time...practically a mage.
It’s a shame the ninja has the worst dmg of all dps jobs lol.
And raiju fucked up a lot too.
Are you okay?? It has potentially the highest rdps out of all melee with dragoon very close to it which is the important stat. Raiju is now fixed due to fleeting not being a gap closer
6.1? Its within the top 4 minimum, the hell are you on about lol.
@@celphalonred1999 Probably just another casual player who plays msq then drops the game till more story comes out lol
Cause they got buffed and are the Meta numbers melee class despite the utility they bring.
They do way too much damage for their utility and ranged options. Waaaaaay too much. They should be at drg levels.
Is it sad all the anime cringe in this nearly made me drop Ninja? I don't play it to be a weeb*, I play it because it's a fun class that's fast-paced, complex, and flexible.
*note I do not mean a fan of anime, Japan, or Japanese things; but rather one who thinks anime is how Japan works.
Sarcasm is key...you should not take that too seriously as well as "Weebs" shouldn't take Anime too seriously
would play NIN but the fact that raiju has a 20 sec timer and is canceled out by ANY gcd other then throwing daggers is bullshit what used to be a fun flex class is now a bullshit clunky popotoe
6.0 NIN to present day NIN makes me wanna fight Yoshi P and I love the hell outta the game him and his work
sorry but instead of 5 reasons to play NIN maybe make a video discussing the mistakes made with NIN starting in 6.0 and what should be changed this easily went from my fav class to i fucking hate raiju and because of it i now hate NIN
Nah, you need just one reason to play ninja. It's WEEB.
