Ninja Mudra Macros and HUD guide

[xJimmehx]

I made a HUD layout with the 7-10 vertical bars to remind myself what the combinations were for each mudra ability. It may be useful to others, or even improved.. so i thought why not share. Anyways here is a picture.

That is the ugliest UI I have ever seen in my whole entire life.

It's not intended to be pretty or even permanent for that matter. It's just a little guide to help me play ninja until i remember the mudra combinations and skills effects. And i hardly doubt it is the ugliest either. Everything other than the mudras is basically default lol. To each his own i guess.

EDIT: Oh, also, you can move the hotbars where ever you want...i wasnt even considering the placement of the bars. I just wanted them to be useful.

When I read the title of the post first reaction was "Noooooooooooo you idiot" but this is actually quite clever use of /micon I had never thought of, though I have no room in my bars to do such a thing so I guess that has something to do with it, but yeah nice thinking props for that

Re-arrange your Ten Chi and Jin?

I put Ten (Heaven) at the top, Jin (Man) on the left, Chi (Earth) at the bottom and Ninjutsu on the right. Helps me remember the combos that way.

Raiton = Heaven > Earth like lightning.
Katon = Earth > Heaven like a flame.
Doton = Heaven > Man > Earth, the rotation is downwards for an aoe.
Huton = Earth > Man > Heaven, opposite of Doton.
Suiton = Earth > Heaven > Man
Hyoton = Heaven/Earth > Man (rarely used)

Consider trying this instead. It makes all jutsus the exact same 1-2-3-4 execution and can be prepped at any point in a rotation without a damage loss, and doesn't bogart four whole hot bars. I've included /echo effects as per the OP's macro paradigm, but they can be removed for anyone who doesn't care for the echo spam.

Huton

1. /hotbar action Jin 1 1
2. /hotbar action Chi 1 2
3. /hotbar action Ten 1 3
4. /hotbar action Ninjutsu 1 4
5. /echo Increases attack speed by 15%.
6. /micon Huton

For jutsus that are only one or two mudras, replace the unused spaces with Ninjutsu.

Fuma Shuriken

1. /hotbar action Ten 1 1
2. /hotbar action Ninjutsu 1 2
3. /hotbar action Ninjutsu 1 3
4. /hotbar action Ninjutsu 1 4
5. /echo Delivers a ranged ninjutsu attack with a potency of 240. (Physical -- 288 with active Kiss)
6. /micon "Fuma Shuriken"

Raiton

1. /hotbar action Ten 1 1
2. /hotbar action Chi 1 2
3. /hotbar action Ninjutsu 1 3
4. /hotbar action Ninjutsu 1 4
5. /echo Deals lightning damage with a potency of 360. (Magic)
6. /micon Raiton

For cross hotbar, the command is /chotbar set
(type /? chotbar for more info on that command and available button codes)

Raiton

1. /chotbar set Ten BARNUMBER BUTTONCODE
2. /chotbar set Chi BARNUMBER BUTTONCODE
3. /chotbar set Ninjutsu BARNUMBER BUTTONCODE
4. /chotbar set Ninjutsu BARNUMBER BUTTONCODE
5. /echo Deals lightning damage with a potency of 360. (Magic)
6. /micon Raiton

To use these macros, change the bar and slot numbers to fit your scheme. The first number in each line is the hotbar number, and the end number is the slot. You want all macros to point to the same four buttons, so that every ninjutsu becomes a 1-2-3-4 sequence. At any point during your rotation, use the jutsu macro. It will not perform any actions, but it will rewrite your hotbar so that your 1-2-3-4 becomes the ninjutsu that you intend to perform next.

Assuming no duplicate jutsus, and assuming you care to have all of them available, this will use eleven buttons total -- 4 for mudra-mudra-mudra-ninjutsu, and seven for the jutsu prep macros -- and will allow you to place the prep macros in any bar, in a way that is meaningful or convenient to your ability effect arrangement scheme rather than their execution sequences.

You shouldn't need a visual guide that big to remember. Mudras are just based on 2 things. How many did you press, and which did you press last?

You could condense your visual guide to only a 2x3 above your mudras.

Arrange them like this (using those macro icons for jutsus)

Huton Doton Suiton
Katon Raiton Hyoton
Ten---Chi --- Jin (your actual hotkeys)

Now you have a visual reference right next to your skills. Press 1 of the others then the one you want to use the bottom row, or press both others then the one you want to use the top row.

I put Ten (Heaven) at the top, Jin (Man) on the left, Chi (Earth) at the bottom and Ninjutsu on the right. Helps me remember the combos that way.

Small world, I literally do the exact same thing.

"From the heavens lightning strikes the earth."
"From the heat of the earth flames rise to the heavens."
"Man seeks to leave earth and fly in the winds"

Alternatively if you just learn Japanese it's really easy to remember the mudras and combos.

I'm only half kidding; it really does make it easier

[Haskoth]

Simplier way is to remember the direction instead
just put them in this order : Jin Chi Ten
3-combination
from left to right is Huton
right to left is Suiton
Anything end in middle is Doton

2-combination
Anything end in middle is Raiton
Anything end in right is Katon

I never use Hyoton is competitive fight
