Re: New Ninja 2hr

And have NIN enemies in Dynamis all be able to blow me up for 3000+ damage no matter how low I drop their HP?

{Thanks for the offer, but I'll have to pass.}

Re: New Ninja 2hr

A 2hr of "reset ninjutsu timers to 0" or something would be cool >.>

Re: New Ninja 2hr

where did you hear/read/deduce that?

Dynamis, and you can see the information in the .dat files.

Double Post Edited:

I've thought about it for awhile and wondered if NIN as a job needed a better 2hr. Imho the Mijin Gakure is a easy get out of this place with my lv on, which is pretty neat and funny to pull.

Dragoon did need a new 2hour.. Ninja doesn't. Besides, Ninja's have no job abilities. >.>

Didn't read all of the thread.. just my opinion quickly, can't be bothered to read it all as i find that the Ninja 2hour is good enough.

Re: New Ninja 2hr

Had a thought as I was reading this. Being a ninja myself I'm actually content with my 2hour, however, for the sake of creativity, I'll post my idea. Didn't think of a name or anything for it, but that's because the thought just hit me. You hit the ability and for one minute or 30 seconds or 45 seconds, you know, whatever sounds most feasable, the shadows you cast actually mirror your attacks. i.e. You swing your katanas and hit for 50 and 45, all of your shadows currently up do the same. You cast Huton: Ni and hit the mob for xx amount of damage, all of the shadows you have up do the same thing. What y'all think. Sounds pretty cool to me and keeps with the stealthy ninja theme eh?

Re: New Ninja 2hr

oh, that's a neat idea. i like that one the best so far. need to probably lower dmg on it and such since 4 shadows whacking away would be pretty nutty. then again if you have hate, you'd be losing shadows faster than they would have a chance to hit anything... hmm...

Re: New Ninja 2hr

Yeah that's why I figured it wouldn't be a big deal that they do everything you do the same because being the ninja you should be tanking and having hate. With that you're shadows would be going down too so you would have to recast them. Plus, it would just kickass to see yourself five times over and smashing something.

Re: New Ninja 2hr

I didnt know you were the source of useful information now.

Anyhow, you didnt get it... i didnt think you'd forget something you yourself once said.

Re: New Ninja 2hr

NIN's 2hr is fine where its at. you just want something new.

Re: New Ninja 2hr

i wonder what they have instore for the new job updates coming soon. it'll be interesting what they can give to nin w/o pissing anyone (everyone) off and crying not fair.

Re: New Ninja 2hr

Mijin Gakure kind of reminds me of in Tenchu when you would stab yourself, and play dead for a second, then you would poof and turn into a log and be alive again. :3

So I don't really see how it is "not befitting." There is actually no such thing as a "Ninja" all throughout history, so I don't see how anybody could judge what is and is not befitting anyway.

Edit: Meh, to not be a spammer and add to the thread, if they did replace Mijin Gakure, I think they need an instand aggro-drop 2 hour called "Smokescreen." That would be hella more useful than Mijin anyway. >_> I don't use Mijin to bloodport, normally. I use it when I get into "oshi" situations. If I could just drop the aggro (Like on Beastmaster with Tame. Only this would work on every kind of aggro, not just certain types.) that would find a better place in my heart. :3 Think about it, you wouldn't need Silent Oils to walk through Ro'Meave ever again! (Not that you need them now, but you get the idea. >_>)

Re: New Ninja 2hr

NIN 2hr isnt fine =/

Self-Destruct replaces Mijin Gakure and then some. Causes the user to blow up with 1hp remaining, and if that kills the enemy (more than likely will since I believe its entirely HP based), then they get the EXP. At the very least I want mijin to be AoE effect.

If it is to be changed, I think it should allow a 30 second paralysis or something, utilizing ninjutsu to decrease your enemy's effectiveness. Or to enhance the stealth aspect, make it so you get a 30 second invisible/sneak/deodorize effect, and during this time if you attack the monster it will not see/hear you even if true sight, and will not aggro, the effect of the 2hr will stay up the entire time. Albeit that doesn't leave much time, if your PT dies and you need time to either run or kill a mob, you have the opportunity to do it in 30 seconds, or even if you're solo and rack up a large train or something.

Re: New Ninja 2hr

From what I've read Self-Destruct gives you a weakened status. I don't know whether or not you lose exp because I have yet to find any info on it. However, I still like my idea ^_^ Anyone know how to send it in to SE. Sure would be some hot sh*t if they put it in. Hahahahah.....ok dreaming over.....but yeah....blowing myself up sucks something fierce. Only time I really use it is 1) death warp 2) bout to die and don't wanna lose the exp.
