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 (now nerfed to be the weakest of the builds), 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.

=== Ninpou (Magic) ===


* STR: leftover
The [[Episode One]] quest line gives you good starting equipment for your class and build. Though it is better than the [[Kingdom Guild]] equipment, that set is also an option to start out.
* AGI: leftover
* VIT: leftover
* INT: 90 ~ 99
* DEX: 60
* LUK: ≅75
 
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.
 
Primary Skills : [[Freezing Spear]], [[Blaze Shield]], [[Exploding Dragon]], [[Cicada Skin Shed]]
 
Complementary Skills : [[Ninja Aura]], [[First Wind]]
 
=== Togatana (Throwing) ===
 
* STR: 90 ~ 99
* AGI: leftover
* VIT: leftover
* INT: leftover
* DEX: ≅55
* LUK: ≅80
 
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]].
 
Primary Skills : [[Throw Shuriken]], [[Throw Coins]], [[Cicada Skin Shed]]
 
Complementary Skills : [[Ninja Aura]]
 
== 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. {{item|id=13050 Eden Daggers}} will be a lot better than Asura.
*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, those being 4 slotted Daggers or Huumas. Daggers are a better choice as they allow the Ninja to wear a shield, though against [[Demi Human]] targets the [[Battlegrounds]] Huumas will deal more damage at the sacrifice of a shield.
*Melee Ninjas will primarily use various types of daggers to maximize on the damage output of their skills. Ninjas cannot wear {{item|id=1232 Assassin Dagger}}, {{item|id=1242 Counter Dagger}}, or {{item|id=1241 Curse Dagger}}.
 
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.  The Kagerou and Oboro are able to dual-wield and thus may equip two fortune swords.  Equipped with this and possibly other [[Perfect Dodge]] gears and cards (such as {{item|id=4051 Yoyo-carded}} accessories), a Ninja can be used to drag high-attack monsters with little risk, but must still be careful of magic and monsters' elemental attacks.  With two fortune swords and a pair of yoyo-carded accessories, this provides an additional 51 of Perfect Dodge.
 
=== Daggers ===
Aside from being able to equip most dagger type weapons, Ninja's are also able to equip Ninja-class only daggers, some of which are available through item quests.

=== 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. The {{item|id=2339 Pantie}} + {{item|id=2522 Undershirt}} combo can be useful for AGI Ninjas to compensate for the lack of [[Flee]] boosting skills. Being an Expanded class, Ninjas cannot wear any gears that are labeled as being only for Transcendent classes.

Overview

Ninja.jpg

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.

Starter Equipment

The Episode One quest line gives you good starting equipment for your class and build. Though it is better than the Kingdom Guild equipment, that set is also an option to start out.

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.

Catalyst Stones:
Name Required for
Flame Stone Blaze Shield and Exploding Dragon
Ice Stone Watery Evasion and Snow Flake Draft
Wind Stone Lightning Jolt and First Wind
Shadow Orb Mirror Image

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.
