NIN: Some mudra ninjutsu changes that could not stop thinking.

[rxnin]

Mudras are what make the Ninja job unique. Mudras are also what separates the bad ninjas from the good ones.

One thing I would suggest is to practice your mudras and rotations on a dummy. Carefully pay attention to timing and weaving ninjutsu in your rotation.

Just like how other classes can mess up their cooldowns and rotation. Ninjas can mess up mudras. Just practice and have fun!

So YOU (yes YOU, not anyone else), messed up YOUR Mudara activation, and now you come here to cry about it, Git Gud or Git Rekt!
I will not sit idle, and watch you lot tarnish the one and only mechanic that makes Ninja a Ninja.
People in this day and age just want everything given to them on a silver plate, if they could they would pick a class with only one button, and later on even cry about it.
Take the effort, with it you loose the fun, and sense of accomplishment (is this a word?)!

(1) Hit the appropriate number of mudras (1-3 total), ending in the associated Mudra in order to activate the given Ninjutsu skill.
(2) The ending Mudra must differ from the previous Mudra or you will be locked out of Ninjutsu for 5 seconds until completing the Ninjutsu for 0 effect (apart from summoning a rabbit).
(3) The first Mudra must differ from the second Mudra or you will be locked out of Ninjutsu for 5 seconds until completing the Ninjutsu for 0 effect (apart from summoning a rabbit).
(4) No other action may be completed between your first Mudra and the casting of the Ninjutsu or you will be locked out of Ninjutsu for 5 seconds until completing the Ninjutsu for 0 effect (apart from summoning a rabbit).


Are all 4 of these essential to making an enjoyable, unique, skill-relevant mechanic for Ninja?

Would it harm gameplay significantly if 4 were removed by making it impossible to hit a Mudra that has already been hit?
Would gameplay be dumbed down if Ninjas had to weigh weaponskill output over time vs. Ninjutsu output over time when given the chance to delay the oGCD's release as not to delay the GCD's?

Read your post earnestly but then i got to this and lost my will to answer any of your questions.
