the NINJA'S now.....

[XenoType-X]

The only Ninja that suck are:

1. ones that become Ninja with no money.

2. ones that become a ninja knowing that it will be an expensive job to maintain.

3. ones that are very conservative, aka they like to save there shehei

4. the ones that dont know how to hold hate other than hittin the sucker

if thats true I know a drk who'd make a pretty good tank.:sweat:

Lol, yea forgot about that, they think provoke is the only way to gain hate. ~Ninja Secrets~~~

bro I was in one PT and I was the tank 70% of the time, we decided pullin sata on this frack nut was'nt gonna work and instead just shot the hate on some 1. a samurai tank can actually last kinda long with a PL.... BUT NOT WIT TEH GIMP NIN! [sami-automatic] <t>

[XenoType-X]

Damn.......... lol I'd never lose hate, I let my Enmity gear speak for itself, see what I try to do is hold better hate than a pld can. You make sure you have A+ ACC to hit the mob to hold hate, then the enmity bonus helps, I also hold hate with WS, and the best way is to use Jutsus to hold hate. Of course it works like shit when they resists them all or your up against a double attack mob with no Haste :dead:

Best reason to be ninja is you can run through kuftal at nighttime to terrigan without sneak oil just wearing AF boots. Just don't stop or look behind you :p
I like being able to solo and its a great farming job with no downtime. Play what you enjoy.

hellz no! u serious?? thats bitch'n' maybe I shoul'dve been a Ninja instead eh'? I think its great how the boots give u +20% movment speed that way you can piss yur freinds off while they follow u and be like "wtf hurry up slow a$$!" lmao

[Kiyosuki]

Yes, even though I don't have DWIV, Blade:Jin through Ku, or any of that high level niceness the boots alone's made leveling Ninja feel worth it. I can't imagine going anywhere without them anymore....

I used to be another one of them "slow fatass" Tarutaru's (since it looks like we run slower, even if we don't technically) But now with these boots I have to constantly stop to make sure I don't leave my party or companions don't get left behind. XD (Unless its another Ninja, and flee can only last so long. :spin:


Problem with a lot of Ninja's is they try to hold hate like a PLD, who holds hate by bombarding the enemy with a lot of emnity spike all at once. Needless to say, I'm sure you guys know that a Ninja can't hold hate like that.

[Ljarin]

Actually Flee with the extra 15 seconds from thf af boots overall is faster than ninja. Try racing across a zone during nighttime the thf will still win.

Unless I'm thinking of the wrong WS, it looks very gay when performed by ELV males. :sweat:

edit: hmm, i think i'm thinking of blade: ten -- the one where you jump into the air...

[Kiyosuki]

Oh yeah..I forgot about that AF thing.

But I still think the Ninja AF boots are more consistent, especially if your using Nin/Thf to solo or just get around. You may not have the extra flee time, but you won't be as vulnerable at a normal pace when it does run out. Depending on the are that could be more useful, atlhough I'm sure there's area's that the longer flee would be more useful for.

Come on man, you know when other jobs look at that WS they're at least a little envious just because of how it looks. Regardless of whoever does it.

Since the character dissapears all the time.. I don't see whats wrong with the Elvaan male pose really..looking at the video of Stanislav doing it from way back when.

Their poses are supposed to be the unusual, yet lethal and graceful type, kinda Voldo esque. I guess its either hit or miss. Elvaan Male Blade: Ten pose I think looks pretty cool..

im not partying with anymore non taru nins with my ranger...

i just switched over to full time gun user....and its crazy.

hume ninja, a ton of emity gear at level 52 (and there isnt even that much) i couldnt fire two shoots between vokes w/o grabbing hate....if barrage didnt kill the mob, i had to zone to cape terry it was that bad..then they'd call me back to finish it off and not miss out on xp...it was horribile.

the stupid mnk in the party changed the Sc to sniper shoot >>> raging fist because split shot got me killed.


taru ninjas >>> everyone else s


sorry if this offends i love ninjas, i think all ninjas are the coolest, but this guy had great gear but sucked times a million, and he used the wheel pretty nicely, he was just one of those panic types you described.

[Kiyosuki]

Why the preference to um, Tarutaru Ninja's in particular?

Just out of curiousity. Yes our Blade: Ten animation destroys everyone else, but well..you know.

because ni elemental magics from a hume...40, 43, 44, 50, 30, i mean hrarely will they get a 80 dmg hit from a nin magic.

taru nin magics 80, 70, 60, 90, i mean even 3 digit damages from nin magics, it makes all the difference.

I mean when it takes him 2 cast to my one shot, i cant shoot very often, but one cast to my one shot, and yeah buddy we have ourselves a DD tank and i love em.

not to mention really high agi for noticable increases in attacks evade...


I'm not saying elvaan or humes suck completely, but they must do something besides the wheel to keep hate, the wheel alone is enough for tarus to keep hate.


^^^ all of this from my personal exsperiences, please im not saying its fact, its just what i have noticed in every party w/ a nin ive been in.


i have had great elvaan nbin tanbks, but their gear was godly

As a Mithra Ninja im doing 70+ dmg with ni spells not with every ninjutsu spell but with most of them.

Too bad that you had some bad experience with those ninjas, but actually is easy to keep hate even if you have a rng in your pt setup.

Most of the time im lvling with a few friend pt setup: RNG, BLMx2, SAM, RDM, NIN.

Okay its expensive without a THF keeping hate but its easy doable.
