NIN/RDM - The Nearly Perfect Elemental Fighter

[Drawmuh]

ive always strive to be different one way or another in games such as these, by this time next year I doubt any class would be overlooked same goes for job combonation...

Ninja's are known for there stealth swift ability and on top of that there mixes(Ninjutsu) of stealh enhancing

Strategy Gude Quotes
"Red Mages have the enfeebling magic and self-enhancing spells that the ninja lack. It takes more planning and finesse to execute the plans of a Ninja/Red Mage but your battles will be more exciting than almost any other"

It sounds pretty cool But you wouldnt be able to get all the spells that you would normally get if your main was Rdm >< So that kind of limits your spells a bit, and the cost of getting all the spells,and equipment <_< >_> Well anyways.. I like the thought of it And hope you have fun XD

yes but isnt that the case with any mage used as a sub

the only real downside I see to this job combonation is the cost of gil

You also wouldnt have as much strength as you would have with any other melee sub. Since the Rdm doesnt get as many spells as the 2 other pure mage classes. That means the Combo would have an even smaller arsenal of spells at their disposal, but that also means theres less money to spend on the spells -_- Hummm... It still sounds pretty interesting.. tell me how it works out later.

Ahh shush >< lol Well yeah.. still seems like a pretty nice combo -_- with the exception of the money part >< Its so hard to make money in FFXI. -_- Well for me it was..

)actually since ninja's have no base mp, your mp as a ninja/redmage would not be very good. Plus you would not have taunt to make use of blink ninjitsu and tank (WHY DID THEY MAKE NINJA SUCH A GOOD TANK!...:sweat: ). You would have weak magic skill since ur skill caps would be low. Your attack wouldnt be as good as a ninja/warrior.

I really like this combo, infact I'm going to be Taru Nin/Rdm. I see some high points. Like using elemental ninjutsu to lower the monsters resistance and than enchant your weapon so you can do some respectable amount of damage. Nin/Rdm would be fun and it'll take alotta work to use it, like Drg/Rdm
