Combat Gameplay - Ninja

[Cyrus-Wallace]

I remember the days when the SMN was implemented. It was a carby fest. I can expect the same now.



I know of some FC mates that will be really happy to see this. As for me, I'll probably level it up because of my completist nature. I'm still waiting for the dark knight.

Is it me or do those animations look much smoother than what we have currently.

I wonder what would be better for the Ninja in terms of a Novus weapon. Skillspeed + Determination or Critical Hit + Determination...

[SDaemon]

eh, we just made it to the 1yr mark there's still 1 year to the 2yr mark..that's not very close ^^
also...they postponed content, and patches, so just cause they planned to release expansion within 2 years, doesn't mean they'll make the deadline.
but from the looks of it, it will be around spring next year, i guess.

2.4 is likely to be end of Oct to early Nov. 2.5 would be early Spring. The expansion won't be till next summer at the earliest.

Way more movement than there needs to be. Can tell they put more effort into ninja than the other classes that barely moves at all.

The skills dont require movement, they are just showing that some skills are ranged, like tele, fireball, throwing knives.
Most of the fight they are just standing still, behind the mob, and slashing.

So much jumping around. I foresee a lot of lolNIN flames when all the newborn NIN discover the woes of DRGs for the past year - that the game doesn't update your position to avoid AoEs until you land, meaning you're going to get hit a LOT by AoEs until you learn it's faster to run out of them than to jump and wait a half-second for the ping update.

That said, the chains look very fluid and flashy. Definitely tempting to try out

So mudras is basically some type of magic. So will Ninjas be DEX/INT base or STR/INT base.

Yoshi-P hinted a while back that people who want to play as Rogue/Ninja should prepare their Melee DPS gears being the Pugilist/Monk gears.
