First up, why make an attack based ninja?!!! everyone knows ninjas need evasion!! ( Sorry I can't do a good idiot impression, I didn't get a lot of sleep ).
Simple, Once you have hojo and kurayami ni the amount of evasion needed to cycle utsusemi is greatly reduced.
An attack based ninja will have more hate than an evasion+emnity, and speed up the parties exp considerably because the extra damage an attack build does is large.
So what numbers do I have to back this up?
Someone irritated me on another forum so I decided to look at the numbers.
Heres my "evasion" setup.
2x Kororito+1
bailathorn ( replaced with unguar boomerang/fenrir stone later )
emporer hairpin
evasion torque
2x dodge earrings.
ninja chainmail ( or scorp harness )
AF gloves ( or arhats tekko )
Jadeite Rings or Tiger rings, both seem popular. ( or snipers )
Bat cape
Survival Belt ( or lifebelt )
Arhats hakama+1 ( or AF legs )
fuma kyahan ( or arhats sune-ate )
Heres my attack build ( this is what I currently exp with )
2x Kororito+1
bomb core
emporer hairpin
evasion torque
2xdodge earrings
Brynie
Ochiudos Kote
2x Sniper rings
Amemet Mantle+1
Lifebelt
Arhats Hakama+1
Fuma Kyahan.
Now here are the numbers.
Using an evasion/emnity build ( ok you'd have to put eris earrings in and maybe a mermaid ring but it doesnt affect the numbers ).
Attack: 272.
Using my attack build.
Attack : 342
Using Evasion build and meat chiefkabob.
Attack: 335
huh? thats right, my setup gives me +5 str and more attack than a meat chiefkabob.
the numbers on attack build+meat chiefkabob are
Attack: 420
Please also note, my attack build gives +5 str, eva build gives none, so not only does it provide more attack than a meat chiefkabob, it provides equal str+.
Ninja is a job where someone wearing full AF and mediocre equipment can still blinktank as well as someone in a scorpion harness and a full evasion setup, it really is a job where skill makes a large difference, I've sacrified a lot of evasion and put it into attack and accuracy with a little str boost. Maybe some people will get hit more but a skilled player will be able to blinktank fine.
Net cost of my build:
2x kororito @60k each, 120k
bombcore @300k
emporer hairpin @420k
evasion torque @200k
2x dodge earrings @40, 80k
byrnie @1.4mill
ochiudos kote @800k
2xsnipers rings @650k, 1.3mill
amemet mantle+1 @900k
lifebelt @75k
arhats hakama+1 @220k
fuma kyahan @200k
Also I have a bat cape @650k
and some other alternate eq.
My total equipment cost comes to around 7mill, so its not a cheap option, and not something I feel you can go 50/50 on.
Depending on your server it may be cheaper/more expensive than a full evasion build ( really depending on harness price is a big factor ).
I hope I've provided some useful information and some of you find it helpful in getting away from the "omg evasionz lolz" builds.
