Ninjutsu activation

As stated above, Ninjutsu actions are activated by first using a sequence of one to three Mudras and then using   Ninjutsu. For new Ninjas, memorizing the correct Mudra sequences is extremely important. If you find it difficult to remember the correct Mudra sequences, you could try using a mnemonic device to assist you. For example, thinking of the Mudras   Ten,   Chi and   Jin as blue, red and yellow, or as one, two and three could be useful. It is generally discouraged to use macros to activate your Ninjutsu abilities because Mudras can be cast every 0.5 seconds, while the macro wait command only works in increments of 1.0 seconds. Eventually, using Mudra combinations will be second nature.
