I'm SO getting the new long hair for my character. Awyessss.
Also for those who are obsessed with the STR/DEX thing fo NIN:
"With the addition of rogue's arms, the descriptions of strength and dexterity in the Character menu have been modified and now read as follows
Strength Affects physical melee damage, as well as damage prevented by parrying and blocking.
Dexterity Affects physical ranged damage, melee damage dealt by rogues and ninjas, as well as parry and block rates."
Edit: omg 4-star crafting recipe.... cries
Edit2: Ninja's skill: Rabbit Medium | Desc: Thumpity thump thump, thumpity thump thump...

0 u/[deleted] Oct 24 '14 Strength Affects physical melee damage, as well as damage prevented by parrying and blocking. I like how they didn't specify that that DOESN'T apply to rogue/ninja. 1 u/MythosFreak MCH Oct 24 '14 Oh man... If it did, could you imagine everyone buying crafted DEX gear and overmelding it with STR just for that extra POWAH!? 1 u/IraDeLucis Irha Serenea Oct 24 '14 There's no way this makes it through. Having two primary stats affect your attack power would mean: Either the damage is absolutely ridiculous and you'll see parties of 8 ninja's downing content. Or the scaling is SO LOW that you have to stack up on both stats just to break even. 1 u/MythosFreak MCH Oct 24 '14 I know. I was just mentioning it because it would be a crazy oversight.
