they really should increase the durration of mug and trick attack, current burst window is to small.
@omupenguinАй бұрын
I think it’s fine, 15s is enough for us to put in our strongest attacks, and 20s is just nice enough for any other strong attacks that didn’t make the cut. Any longer would kinda make the point of a burst window moot imo, especially when you run out of big hitting attacks and resort to 1-2-3 combo (that’s us). You have any issues with NIN’s rotation?

So is there a reason why phantom needs to be in the mug window and not the kunai bane window I’m new to high level ninja and I was always confused on that
@omupenguinАй бұрын
I think someone in the balance can give you a better answer, but let me just write what I remember. 1) Since Kunai lasts a shorter duration, we want to fit our highest potency actions within the Kunai window, which means sacrificing relatively lower potency actions like phantom 2) phantom does lower damage than the tooltip suggests, as phantom is considered a pet action and pet actions do less damage than actually stated 3) that said, phantom is still one of the higher potency actions we have, so we want to put it in our mug window if we can since our mug window is within other jobs’ raidbuffs as well. 4) but if you ever need to disengage, it’s better to just use your phantom over Raiton, and especially over the Kunai throw Hope this helps!

Ninja is actually one of the easiest melees to play once you get used to the burst window. Don’t be scared to start, since Ninja’s burst window will almost always be the same. Do it enough times and your muscle memory will develop!

Would be insightful to either have a written list of what you’re pressing in the description or on screen, especially for mobile viewers. I can see you doing damage but the extra information would be useful rather than just hoping i can see what button you just pressed. Not intending to be rude with my comment. Please don’t read it in that way. Just a slight critique as someone who wants to learn the proper rotation in video format but can’t really see buttons.. i have no computer. (Ps5 player)
@omupenguin28 күн бұрын
Yep totally undestand. That’s why my latest videos have the action timeline plugin that shows the button sequences. But at the end of the day, what I’m doing is to showcase how the rotation that was designed by the balance mentors is supposed to be performed. These videos are kinda aimed towards players who are familiar with the kit and just need to check on how certain parts of the rotation is executed (ie. delaying Mug by 1 GCD in the 2min window). I linked the appropriate guides for each video so you can watch along and see what I’m pressing at which time. If you’re a beginner, you can consider subscribing because I will be creating beginner guides eventually!

Do we ever use Zesho under meisui outside of the opener?
@omupenguinАй бұрын
It doesn’t matter if you use Zesho with or without Meisui, the potency you gain is a flat value. What matters is to use use both your Meisui-enhanced Bhava/Zesho in your burst window. And that should never be an issue unless you start drifting your cooldowns.

I'm just sad that they seem to be moving ninja away from high-speed low CD class to "Through the Fire and the Flames" every 2 minutes. Why do they insist on bogging this class down with a TINY ass damage window to stuff like 20+ CDs. Fuck, I just hate what this class has become, it was SO good in Shadowbringers and now it's just pain to play. Big crazy ass strict opener and then fuck all between the bursts. So glad Viper at least gives that armor class purpose now. Thanks for the vid though, I always appreciate someone showing an opener, even when I don't play the class, info dump vids are always a nice thing to see.

I think this playstyle is what makes the class unique... it's a true burst damage class, whereas the rest of the classes are built to do consistent damage/2 min bursts.

@@ek9750 The problem was that we brought this issue up back in Shadowbringers and instead of fixing the issue, they doubled-down on OGCDs and stuffing the burst window instead of giving ninja more to do during the downtime. Remember, trick attack used to be the ONLY damage increase ability, not mug.

What do you think of melees right now? Correct me if I'm wrong but all of them to me feel like "fill meter then spend meter" kinda deal Turned me off so much that I'm looking to heal this expansion lol.
@omupenguinАй бұрын
As of now, it’s really only Reaper, Samurai and Viper that has a “fill meter and spend meter” type of gameplay, though I think Samurai and Viper have more to do outside of burst windows so they fill quite different. Monk, Dragoon and Ninja are more CD-based jobs, where you just want to press your big skills off cooldown (I’m sure monk has more to it but I haven’t learnt it yet). Personally I think the melees (all DPS actually) feel very distinct in one another. Even though every job wants to do their big damage at the same time, how they go about preparing it and executing it is different, even among melees. But honestly this is more of a subjective matter. My opinion is that they all feel different in their own way, so if you think healers are just more enjoyable then go for it!
@user-ik1ju4th2eАй бұрын
@@omupenguin Interesting, I feel the opposite in regards to DPS, every single one felt the same to me, I imagine optimizing and whatnot makes every job different but I'm not up there, to each their own for sure. Thanks for the answer.
