I can't believe this isn't a class already...I mean they have whippers which is really far-fetched and exotic, but they don't have ninjas.
Anyway, I present to you the basic concept of the ninja.
The Ninja throws stars, which have a normal AGI of 15-20, and a range of 90
LP: Adds 8 Lp per point, x5 LP during VS mode STR: Adds 1/2 Damage per point +3 LP per point DEX: Increases movement speed by 5% per point (100 points will result in 100+500% movement speed =D) +2 LP per point Mag: Enables special attacks + 2 LP per point
Edit: Alternate idea: To add a unique element of gameplay, adding LP to the ninja also gives it a dodge/endurance effect (the preist's defense aura is useless in VS mode). Every LP adds 4 LP and gives it +1% dodge/damage reduction. The dodge works by having a percentage chance that the physical damage doesn't show up, and damage is reduced for magical effects; the effects of slow and freeze are lessened. After 50% damage reduction, the damage reduction doesn't increase but LP goes up by +6 per point instead.
Weapon examples:
Poison star 4 Poison Damage 2-3, 1 second 40 mag
Frozen Star 4, Star becomes 3 stationary icicles on contact 10-20 damage, 40% slow 60 mag
Double star 4 (20-30 agi instead of 15-20) 5-10 att
It's obviously not 100% balanced, but I reckon it's pretty close

Agreed. Nonjas. Of course, as a class they would have to go by the pseudonym of "Ninja", like they usually do, so as to distract attention from the true Nonjas.

Please, read through "New Class: Stormer" first, then piece together the ideas once we gather all the idea-posts and what not from there.

Wikipedia doesn't mention our Nonjas, so why link to them?
Nonjas are a very, very old forum inside joke. They used to be absolutely huge, but now they are only in two forum games.
Of course, do we need another long-range class? I guess a long-ish range class with straight weapons (Like magician, but different range and damage) would be pretty good. We don't seem to have one of those yet.

So who cares if it's another long-range class? it adds to the variety!

i think the shuriken should home a little, just for extra ninja-ness movement speed? as in the ninja or the shuriken?

Yeah, movement speed. And maybe automatic jumping?
No real need for a homing weapon, we can just use guide's card.

Heh.
I think we could use a class like this. Low AGI, long range, low damage, fires like triple shot. Like a Boxer that sacrifices damage and spash damage for ranger walking speed and range. Or a faster Archer that only fires straight and goes faster, BUT again with the damage.

QwertyuiopThePieYea, thanks. I tried to think of a class which brought a new 'dimension' to the game, in this case, movement speed. It's basically an archer but with the option to increase speed instead of range, although it can also work like a melee character if one uses str + a physical-orientated weapon such as Double Stars 4.

Yes, a fast archer, with straight weapons. That's it.

Yeah, this is a good idea. But like the idea on my stormer class, I think that the 'stars' should havea small arc to them, probably about 15 degrees off horizontal. In any case, I like it.

This man, he knows. Anyways, it'd be nice if the weapons went as such: -Throwing knives -Shuriken -Whatever may come after it. Seeing as the gladiator and the boxer already have 2nd weapons.

Shall I compile a list of possible weapons for this class? I have a basic plan for what can happen on my Stormer class. Just tell me what elements there will be, and I'll start on it.
