Ninja

Ninja is a melee DPS job released in Patch 2.4 of A Realm Reborn. It evolves from the class Rogue. Ninja, like rogue, dual-wields 2 dagger weapons, applies poisons to their weapons and is able to become invisible with Hide. Ninjas' unique abilities are their Ninjutsu Actions. They can execute these abilities by using their Mudras (Ninja hand signs) in correct orders and combinations.

• In the battle, the main focus of Ninja is to use its Mudras to create Ninjutsus correctly. It is not as positionally focused as Monk.

• The weapons of Ninja is similar to that of Monk. It appears as two weapons but will only count as 1 item.

The Primary Attribute for Ninja is Dexterity. Ninja shares pre-patch 2.4 gear with Monk. Dexterity was added to those gear.

Ninja is able to use the Cross Class Actions of both Pugilist and Lancer.

• Ninja was first introduced in E3 2014.

Requirement

• Level 30 Rogue
• Level 15 Pugilist
• Completion of Main Scenario quest: Sylph-management
