The '''Ninja''' is an [[Expanded Classes|expanded class]] that fights with shuriken, kunai and huuma blades, vanishes into the shadows, and channels elemental ninpou magic. It is a flexible hybrid able to build into a physical assassin, an elemental nuker, or a slippery support, depending on which skill line is invested in.
The '''Ninja''' is an [[Expanded Classes|expanded class]] that fights with shuriken and huuma blades, vanishes into the shadows, and channels elemental ninpou magic through three distinct specializations:


== Overview ==
* '''Throwing''' — ranged and melee physical attacks driven by shuriken and huuma blades, capped by the Death Mark burst line.
Ninjas reach their job change without a transcendent (rebirth) tier. Their kit splits into three pillars:
* '''Shadow and Support''' — mobility, evasion, and the Ninja Aura battle state.
* '''Ninpou Magic''' — Fire, Water, and Wind spell lines connected by elemental haze passives that reward chaining elements in sequence.


* '''Physical / Throwing''' — shuriken and huuma attacks built on [[Kenpou Training]] (STR & Hit), capped by the [[Death Mark]] burst line.
The branches are a matter of priority, not a cage: skill points can be spent freely, so hybrid builds remain fully playable. The Ninja is an expanded class and has no transcendent (rebirth) tier.
* '''Shadow / Support''' — mobility, evasion and the [[Ninja Aura]] battle state.
* '''Ninpou Magic''' — Fire, Water and Wind spell lines built on [[Ninpou Training]] (INT & SP), tied together by the elemental "haze" passives.


== Role ==
----
* '''Physical burst:''' store damage with [[Death Mark]], then unload [[Shadow Slash]] and [[Tsugari]].
* '''Elemental caster:''' pick a Fire, Water or Wind line and amplify it with the haze passives.
* '''Skirmisher:''' [[Shadow Jump]], [[Cicada Skin Shedding]] and [[Mirror Image]] make the Ninja hard to pin down.


== Skills ==
== Specialization branches ==


=== Throwing line ===
=== Throwing ===
; [[Kenpou Training]] : Passive. Raises STR (Lv1–5) and Hit (Lv6–10); foundation of the physical/throwing tree.
; [[Throw Shuriken]] : Ranged single-target attack that uses shuriken ammo and takes its element.
; [[Throw Huuma Shuriken]] : 5×5 splash attack that requires an equipped Huuma Shuriken.
; [[Huuma Shuriken - Grasp]] : Places a copy of the Huuma on the ground that hits a 7×7 area and may cause Bleeding.
; [[Throwing Expertise]] : Passive. Boosts the Hit and damage of the throwing skills.


=== Shadow & support line ===
The Throwing branch arms the Ninja with ranged shuriken fire and close-range huuma strikes, built on a passive STR and Hit foundation. The line culminates in Death Mark, which stores the physical damage dealt to a target and releases a share of it as a single burst.
; [[Flip Tatami]] : Cross-shaped attack that knocks back and acts as Pneuma for the user.
; [[Shadow Jump]] : Instant teleport to a cell, entering Hiding on arrival.
; [[Cicada Skin Shedding]] : Grants physical dodges that knock the attacker back.
; [[Mirror Image]] : Grants extra dodges with no knockback; requires [[Ninja Aura]].
; [[Ninja Aura]] : Self battle state that raises ATK and ASPD and empowers several skills.

</table>
Brands a target with a shadow mark at the cost of part of the Ninja's own Max HP. While the mark lasts, it stores the physical damage the Ninja deals to that target with normal attacks and specific skills. Only the HP the target actually loses is stored. When the mark expires, a share of the stored damage strikes at once and the Ninja recovers some HP. It requires Tsugari to be learned first.
→ '''[[Death Mark]]'''
<br style="clear:both"/>
 
=== Shadow and Support ===
 
The Shadow and Support branch provides the Ninja's toolkit for repositioning, evasion, and amplifying its physical output. Shadow Jump enables instant teleportation into ambush position, while Cicada Skin Shedding and Mirror Image stack layers of physical evasion. Ninja Aura is the central buff state that elevates the entire branch.

<tr><th style="text-align:left">Max level</th><td>1</td></tr>
<tr><th style="text-align:left">SP cost</th><td>10</td></tr>
</table>
A concealment toggle that keeps the Ninja hidden for a limited time while slowly draining SP. The Ninja cannot move or act while hidden, and detection skills can still reveal it. Unlocked through a special quest rather than the skill tree.
→ '''[[Shadow Hiding]]'''
<br style="clear:both"/>
 
=== Ninpou Magic ===
 
The Ninpou Magic branch covers three separate elemental spell lines — Fire, Water, and Wind — each with its own single-target and area skills, all built on the Ninpou Training passive. Three haze passives link the lines together, rewarding players who chain elements in sequence.
 
==== Ninpou Training ====

Latest revision as of 20:17, 4 October 2026

The Ninja is an expanded class that fights with shuriken and huuma blades, vanishes into the shadows, and channels elemental ninpou magic through three distinct specializations:

  • Throwing — ranged and melee physical attacks driven by shuriken and huuma blades, capped by the Death Mark burst line.
  • Shadow and Support — mobility, evasion, and the Ninja Aura battle state.
  • Ninpou Magic — Fire, Water, and Wind spell lines connected by elemental haze passives that reward chaining elements in sequence.

The branches are a matter of priority, not a cage: skill points can be spent freely, so hybrid builds remain fully playable. The Ninja is an expanded class and has no transcendent (rebirth) tier.


Specialization branches

Throwing

The Throwing branch arms the Ninja with ranged shuriken fire and close-range huuma strikes, built on a passive STR and Hit foundation. The line culminates in Death Mark, which stores the physical damage dealt to a target and releases a share of it as a single burst.

Kenpou Training

Kenpou Training
JobNinja
TypePassive
TargetSelf
Max level10

A passive mastery that raises STR at lower levels and Hit at higher levels, forming the foundation of every physical and throwing skill in the Ninja's kit. → Kenpou Training

Throw Shuriken

SP cost3 → 7
Range9 → 13
Catalyst1 Shuriken

The Ninja's basic ranged attack, hurling a single shuriken at a distant enemy. The throw uses the element of the equipped weapon, and a shuriken with its own element replaces it. While Ninja Aura is active, consecutive throws alternate between one and two hits. → Throw Shuriken

Throw Huuma Shuriken

JobNinja
TypeOffensive (Ranged, Physical)

Max level10
SP cost13 → 22
Range9
Cast time0.5 s
RequiresHuuma Shuriken equipped

Hurls the equipped Huuma Shuriken at a target and strikes every enemy in an area around the point of impact. It is the Ninja's main physical area attack and requires a Huuma Shuriken to be equipped as a weapon. → Throw Huuma Shuriken

Huuma Shuriken - Grasp

Range9
Cast time0.5 s
Cooldown1 s
Catalyst1 Shadow Orb
RequiresHuuma Shuriken equipped

Plants a spinning copy of the equipped Huuma Shuriken on the target cell. The copy repeatedly strikes every enemy in a wide area around it with weapon-element hits and may cause Bleeding, working as a short persistent damage zone. → Huuma Shuriken - Grasp

Shadow Slash

TypeOffensive (Melee)
TargetEnemy

Max level10
SP cost8 / 8 / 9 / 9 / 10 / 10 / 11 / 11 / 12 / 12
Range7 cells

Moves the Ninja next to a nearby enemy and lands a melee blow. It opens the melee combo, empowering the next Tsugari and feeding Death Mark. When used from Hiding, the strike is doubled. → Shadow Slash

Tsugari

TypeOffensive (Melee, AoE)
TargetEnemy (5x5 splash)

Max level5
SP cost12 / 15 / 18 / 21 / 24
Range1 cell
Cooldown0.7 s

A fast melee sweep that strikes the target and every enemy around it twice, with a greatly increased critical chance. It consumes the Shadow Slash bonus for extra damage, and its hits feed Death Mark. → Tsugari

Death Mark

Death Mark
JobNinja
TypeOffensive (Debuff)
TargetEnemy
Max level10
SP cost40
Range9 cells
Cooldown10 s
Duration5 s
Catalyst1 Shadow Orb

Brands a target with a shadow mark at the cost of part of the Ninja's own Max HP. While the mark lasts, it stores the physical damage the Ninja deals to that target with normal attacks and specific skills. Only the HP the target actually loses is stored. When the mark expires, a share of the stored damage strikes at once and the Ninja recovers some HP. It requires Tsugari to be learned first. → Death Mark

Shadow and Support

The Shadow and Support branch provides the Ninja's toolkit for repositioning, evasion, and amplifying its physical output. Shadow Jump enables instant teleportation into ambush position, while Cicada Skin Shedding and Mirror Image stack layers of physical evasion. Ninja Aura is the central buff state that elevates the entire branch.

Flip Tatami

Flip Tatami
JobNinja
TypeActive (Offensive)
TargetSelf (area around the user)
ElementWeapon

JobNinja
TypeActive (Supportive)
TargetGround cell
Max level5
SP cost15
Range7 → 11
Cast time0.85s → 0.25s
Cooldown8s → 4s

Teleports the Ninja to a targeted cell and grants a short Hiding on arrival. Any longer Hiding already active, such as one from Shadow Hiding, is replaced by this short one. The jump has no effect in War of Emperium, where the Ninja cannot be moved. → Shadow Jump

Ninja Aura

Ninja Aura
JobNinja
TypeActive (Supportive)
TargetSelf
Max level5
SP cost20 → 60
Cast time5s → 1s
Duration60s → 180s

The Ninja's core offensive buff, raising physical attack power and attack speed for its duration. It also empowers other skills: it enables Mirror Image, lets Throw Shuriken land an extra hit on alternating throws, and strengthens the bonus that Shadow Slash grants to Tsugari. → Ninja Aura

Cicada Skin Shedding

Cicada Skin Shedding
JobNinja
TypeActive (Supportive)
TargetSelf
Max level5
SP cost12 → 24
Duration20s → 60s

Shadow Hiding

Shadow Hiding
JobNinja

TargetSelf
Max level1
SP cost10

A concealment toggle that keeps the Ninja hidden for a limited time while slowly draining SP. The Ninja cannot move or act while hidden, and detection skills can still reveal it. Unlocked through a special quest rather than the skill tree. → Shadow Hiding

Ninpou Magic

The Ninpou Magic branch covers three separate elemental spell lines — Fire, Water, and Wind — each with its own single-target and area skills, all built on the Ninpou Training passive. Three haze passives link the lines together, rewarding players who chain elements in sequence.
