So... 1)need tactics to make my ninja work (with weapon skills)--don't have 2)trying to gain skill within Ninjitsu blows even more. Hours and hours .06 gained. Thinking...ninja is DOA. --X
just need to use ur imagination... and u can still make a perfectly good template... i have found a template and am trianing it up now... from what i have tried so far (pvp) it seems to be ok.. will be better when it's done just a little addition..: LOL this forum is dead!!! i'm first to post in a week
PM me your template and I'll send mine back if you like. --X (and you are right, this forum does seem dead)
I've just made a ninja-archer who is insanely powerful (Archery, Tactics, Anatomy, Healing, Ninjitsu, Hide, Stealth, max Str/Dex). I've got him in Horrific Beast form and a Darkwood suit (HPR 36) with a total of 60 DCI and 147 HP and 4 sec bandages and all-70's resists (even when Corpse Skinned), so he's super-durable even against the gank. Whenever I get to red health I just drop a smoke bomb and let my HP fly up. Haven't died yet. On offense, I just Dismount a guy and then switch to x-bow and Concussion him to death, along with Shuriken/Darts and Melisande's Fermented Wine (can also go back to the heavy and Moving Shot him to death if he flees). Sometimes it's fun to use a Shortbow against a bunch of spellcasters and spam Lightning Arrow (constantly disrupting them). All in all, a very fun template to play, and quite powerful. Ninjitsu is far from dead, but I think you need to be creative to build effective ones (I have a pretty sweet Ninja Tamer with a 120 Reflect Physical suit too, though he's too gimp to ever actually play).
I love my Ninja character. This is his skill sets: (I have two soulstones to transform between 2 sets.) Normal set: 120 Ninja (103 real + 7 ring + 10 Mark of Travesty) 100 Hiding 81 Stealth (10 from Mark of Travesty) 120 Sword 70 Tactics (I only use radiant scimitar for swirlwind.) 90 Heal 64 Resist 35 Necro (Sampire) 80 Chivalry (67 real + 13 from bracelet) (Also I swap to a ring of 15 chivalry to get to 95 if it is safe to do a swap.) Gauntlet Set: 115 Resist 90 Tactics 0 Stealth Other skills are the same.
yeah the big change has been the nerfing of archery with ninja, which in game terms is great even thouigh Ilovedmy ninja archer
Yeah i stoned the archery off when the nerf came about so I'm running with swords. I'm really not a true ninja. Kinda sad. Heres my template 115 swords 115 ninja 110 tactics 100 anatomy 100 focus 90 healing 70 chiv Would drop focus but with my darkwood suite makes for crappy regeneration. Still its a really fun template. I can do peerless and solo hunting plus champing every once and a while. Not really all that good at PvPer yet. Truefully my template isn't quit done yet. Only thing I have training right now is Ninjitsu with really slow gains at 90 Everything else is locked down.
