| This build is similar to a [[Mage]] or [[Wizard]], but has its own set of unique skills to take advantage of. Magic Ninjas raise their [[DEX]] and [[INT]] to make the best use of their skills. Importance of maxing [[DEX]] and [[INT]] are emphasized due to the poor cast times on the majority of spells and the lack of magic boosting items for the ninja class. The rest of the points can be used to raise some [[LUK]] for additional damage output. The majority of ninja skills all require catalyst stones. Their primary damage skills are [[Freezing Spear]]/[[Blaze Shield]] and [[Exploding Dragon]], with [[First Wind]] and [[Snow Flake Draft]] also being an option. [[Cicada Skin Shed]] is essential to increase survivability, while [[Ninja Aura]] gives a minor boost to [[INT]].
| |
|
| |
| While not the strongest damage dealers, Magic Ninjas still deal respectable damage and can easily drop unprepared opponents. [[Blaze Shield]] is good for slowing down monsters and players, [[Freezing Spear]] for harassing targets with its rapid hits, and [[First Wind]] is an [[AoE]] spell that hits targets over [[Magnetic Earth]]. [[Cicada Skin Shed]] helps offset the low [[HP]] Modifier, but Magic Ninjas have to be careful of status effects.

| Throwing builds attempt to capitalize on the Ninja's throwing skills. Throwing skills are based on [[STR]] for damage, so this is the primary stat. [[DEX]] is needed for [[Hit]] rate of Huuma Shuriken, and to reduce [[Throw Huuma Shuriken]]'s cast time. Throw Huuma Shuriken is also [[SP]] intensive, so a decent amount of [[INT]] is recommended. Remaining stat points go into either [[AGI]] or [[VIT]], depending on whether the Ninja is for PvM or [[PvP]]/[[WoE]].

| == Equipment ==
| |
|
| |
| === Weapons ===
| |
|
| |
| *Magic Ninjas will primarily use the [[Dagger]]s {{item|id=13011 Asura}} or {{item|id=1231 Bazerald}}, as those daggers raise their MATK. The Asura doesn't give an INT bonus like the Bazerald, but allows flexibility with its 3 card slots.
| |
| *Throwing Ninjas will primarily use the [[Huuma Shuriken]]s. The {{item|id=13303 Huuma Blaze Shuriken}}'s high attack is useful for Throw Kunai, while the {{item|id=13304 Huuma Calm Mind}} deals the best damage with Throw Huuma Shuriken. If a Ninja wants to opt for more defense, they can switch to using a Dagger and Shield instead, but cannot cast Throw Huuma Shuriken without switching back to a Huuma, and must remember the Dagger's size modifier. An {{item|id=1230 Ice Pick}} is a useful weapon against high-DEF enemies.
| |
| *Killing Stroke Ninjas will want whichever weapon will give them the highest % modifier.
| |
|
| |
| In general for all Ninja builds, a {{item|id=1223 Fortune Sword}} is a notable weapon for using [[Perfect Dodge]] in combination with Cicada Skin Shed.
| |
|
| |
| === Daggers ===
| |
| Aside from being able to equip most dagger type weapons, Ninjas are also able to equip Ninja-class only daggers.

| === Armors ===
| |
|
| |
| Ninjas wear mostly light-medium [[DEF]] armors, including the general armors such as Mantle/Coat/Formal Suit, and several of the [[Thief]] armors such as {{item|id=2335 Thief Clothes}} and {{item|id=2337 Ninja Suit}}. The Ninja Suit can combo with the {{item |id=2654 Shinobi Sash}} to help reduce the Ninja's SP consumption. Being an Expanded class, Ninjas cannot wear any gears that are labeled as being only for Transcendent classes.

Overview
Ninjas are an expanded class that cannot be rebirthed or adopted. Because of this, Ninjas are granted 69 skill points to distribute.
The ninja class is fun and offers three types of roles to play: a magic ninja, a throwing ninja, and a melee ninja. Ninjas excel in the art of evasion with skills like Cicada Skin Shed and Mirror Image which prevent almost all non-magical damage from harming them. Their magic tree offers several fun spells that are unlike that of any other class (although nowhere near as powerful as the Wizard class spells).
This class is not recommended for new players, as it is expensive to play. The magic and throwing ninjas require materials to cast all of their spells, thus attention should be paid to choosing profitable targets.
Job Change Guide
See Ninja Job Change Guide for information.
Ammunition & Catalysts
Ninjas have two types of ammunition: Shuriken and Kunai. In addition, certain Ninja skills require catalysts that can be purchased from a special NPC in most town Tool Dealers.
Shuriken
Used for the skill Throw Shuriken. The bonus damage added by the skills Throwing Mastery and Throw Shuriken are mastery ATK.
See Shuriken for a list of available Shurikens.
Kunai
Used for the skill Throw Kunai. Like Shuriken, can be purchased from the NPC directly.
See Kunai for a list of available Kunai.
Catalysts
Catalyst Stones are needed to cast various magic-type Ninja skills.
Class Data
Skills
Ninjas have three primary branches of skills: Throwing, Deception and Magic. The player can opt to master one branch, or mix elements from two branches. They also have the sub-branch with supportive skills, and an "Ultimate" skill.
Throwing skills rely on the user's STR for damage, while Magic skills use INT, meaning that these two branches are rarely mixed. Deception is a mix of evasion skills and attack skills, and usually all Ninja builds will include Cicada Skin Shed due to its usefulness in avoiding attacks.
