[To the Devs] Remove ninja tools and make the ninja spells consume TP or mana

[hordecore]

they are after all /ma magic abilities

[Alhanelem]

No. then they'd have to magic aggro and I'm sure you wouldn't want that.

[thefinalrune]

Absolutely not. Its easy to keep a staple supply of tools, keeping an endless supply of TP or MP is not. This would completely ruin the functionality of NIN.

[Habiki]

Why would they have to magic aggro then bard spells don't and cost no mp, but seriously don't be so cheap buy your tools and be happy that their cheap. Go sell some pearl teal and aurore sets to an npc that should help if you can't seem to afford them, or just don't play ninja.

No thanks next plz.

you do realize that some of these tools are actual tools of the real life historical martial arts right? Granted, the uses have been modified for different purposes in the game (makibishi, kaginawa, etc)--but they are REAL tools used in the various disciplines.

[Kjara]

I think SE sorta wanted to give a tribute to FFVIII's magic units system when they made NIN's spell consume units of items. I personally don't mind it. You should be happy that they gave us universal tools to not make us fill the inventory with 12 different types of tools.

bro you are talking about magic

so i guess this thread was a success, then?

Bro, ninjutsu isn't "magic." It's ninjutsu. it simply deals elemental damage (in the case of the elemental ninjutsu)

The whole point of ninjutsu was to create a different kind of mechanic.

dude was talking about real life ninjas, whom he apparently thinks used salt licks to create ice bombs or something? (troll successful, point hordecore)

if i came over to your house and wiggled my fingers and said POOF YOU ARE A FROG and suddenly you were a frog, would your first question seriously be "hmm i wonder if his ability to turn me into a frog has anything in common with Dhalsim's use of yoga to spit fire and kick people from across the screen"
