Rogue/Ninja In 2.4 How will this work? - Kage - 08-25-2014
So, we know that Rogue and Ninja are going to be introduced 2.4 right?
I'm just idly thinking at work but... how is this going to work for new players? Or do you think it's going to be (until say 3.0) locked to lvl 50 players first? Aka, players will be playing through Yugiri's story lines in the Main Story Scenario before they can access it?
It seems odd for new players to be able to be able to play the new class/job when they haven't even met Yugiri yet.

Because Devil's Advocate is my favorite game, it's entirely possible it'll handle scripting like Legacy/Non-Legacy. If you've done the story quests and have met Yugiri, you'll get different dialogue. Otherwise you're just a new recruit, not a welcomed-back friend learning some promised tricks.
Not my personal theory, just a thought on the other side.

I'd have to echo what Warren said. They will probably change dialogue, or even make Yugiri phased out with another 'guildmaster' in place until you reach that point in the storyline. Either way, I have faith they will make it fit appropriately in some way or another.

Yugiri is likely to be the Job NPC, not the Class NPC that serves as the guildmaster. Othard, and Doma by inclusion, are Far-East themed, so it's no stretch to assume that the new lady in town will be handing out the NIN quests.
MSQ makes it clear that Limsa Lominsa's secret society of "rogues" (we'd better be getting a Thief class, Yoshi P) has been around for quite some time, anyway.

I'd like to see it handled in the way that Warren outlined. I just think it is a better idea overall to give the players that have already gotten through that part of the main quest a little something extra.

Bit of an odd sidenote, but I'm hoping Ninja is a pretty hands-off job when it comes out ICly.
Ninjas are supposted to be masters of not being seen, subterfuge, very secretive. I might punch something if I see everyone and their cheese rping a Ninja like this guy:

I'm going to be using Ninja as an excuse for this.

Some "interesting" info regarding ninja
Quote:Additionally, I've already completed my checks for this, but the home base for ninja will be a guild that is located in each city-state and it will be a bit different than what everyone has seen up until now

EACH CITY STATE? WUUUUT?!
They're completely breaking all precedent here. Completely breaking it.
...But you know, what I'm more concerned with is how leveling it will be when absolutely everyone is playing NIN at the same time. Hoooo, boy!

To paraphrase Yoshi:
'Who would want to play a Thief when everyone is supposed to be a hero?'
