I can see that getting nerfed before its even thrown out the gate from 25% to 10-15% on both of those.
Also will feint even drop mobs evasion still? or are we expected to spam gravity things in zergs?

I think feint will still lower mobs evasion by the same % for 30 seconds, but with additional merits, increase chance of TH raising (from 25%-100% depending on 2-5 merits).
Sounds great to me!

IDK Why they'd nerf ***-charges additional effect.
99% of the time I use it in junction with SA, or TA, so Accuracy bonus is entirely worthless.
1/5 Assassin's Charge, 5/5 Feint, 4/5 Aura Steal pretty much for me D:

You probably know this, But its raising the chance by 100%, Meaning, If you have a 5% Chance to upgrade TH, it'll be 10% Chance with feint on.
Just clarifying XD

before I read the OP, I saw THF in a dev post and was terrified. that's what it's come to. If the dev's say anything about MNK THF or BST, it's a full on panic, wondering what exactly they'll *** up next >.<

So when is this going into Effect? lol All the current adjustments are already added to the test server for testing.
Give that about 2 weeks to a month until you see it on the main servers.

Yeah I know that. But that's still a lot better then feint is now. It's just a bonus to the eva - we can put on, especially if solo when we can't SA without sleep bolts. And in group events, every min we have SA AND TA, and every 2 min feint. Just better chances for drops overall which is one of the things THF is known for. So personally I'm happy with the change.

What the hell did I miss?
Where's the testing thread that shows THF got Dual Wield III at level 98?
I've been subbing NIN since the 99 update like a jackass.

Well poop. My merits were arranged for 5 feint, 4 assassin's charge, 1 aura steal, and I pretended ambush didn't exist. Now I'm going to have to drop assassin's charge down to one, throw one merit at least at ambush, and fill the rest up with aura steal I suppose. Or maybe I'll still pretend ambush doesn't exist. I love yoinking buffs off mobs and applying them to myself. <3
If SE loved me, they'd let me yoink 2-hours off mobs!

Um - I think it was tested and confirmed on BG, Somewhere in the "Test Server Findings" thread.
I can't find it specifically but its there somewhere.

I'd do 5/5 Feint, 4/5 Aura, 1/5ass-charge.
Or 4/5 Feint, 5/5 Aura, 1/5 ***-charge.
And continue to pretend Ambush doesn't exist.

Honestly, the only time my thf really comes out to play much anymore is for dynamis, and I'd rather /dnc for that. It's not such a waste of sneak/invis tools and meds, and gives you extra procs for staggers and the ability to cure yourself. But on the off-chance that the ls requests thf for voidwatch or something, I /nin. Those shadows have saved me more than once! Really though, that's pretty rare. Thf isn't too useful for voidwatch.

When i THF in Voidwatch usually /WAR, or /DNC (if they want the /DNC Procs).
Fanatic's helps me more :P
But your point is quite reasonable :O

Whats Ambush?! well but honestly.. the relic+2 body got a nice boost to ambush.. but still then seems pretty pointless :( they really should rethink ambush.. if they would make it a "mini sneak attack" so you have a huge crit hitrate+ and crit hit dmg+ when attacking from behind the mob (dont even need the huge extra dmg like SA) then ambush could be worth to toss 3ish Merits into (1 Assasinscharge/1Aurasteal/5Feint)

SA -> wait 50 seconds -> feint -> pop NM -> bully -> SA again instantly lol
it seems almost impossible to not hit th9 now in seconds, in theory
When use Feint , SA or TA never up TH ^^
