The Sealed Dagger: A Ninja Guide

Yeah, feels like it would still be:

Nyame for hybrids
Mpaca for Ten Zessho Savage Shun

So unless they put some completely new stats on AF head, a bit more WSD would only be appealing for Metsu, Hi, maybe Kamu?

Yea pretty much.

Total wishful thinking but we are so overdue for a new shuriken. A man can pray...

you got a new shuriken silly, the domain invasion shurikens.

A new shuriken feels like it would be a pretty sensible addition to items obtained with the new Imperial Standing Accolades from Besieged. Maybe in future Besieged updates/tiers?

That's typically where they toss them to now yeah, if not beseiged accos then whatever limbus currency is will have some probably, whether theyre any good or are just sange fodder(if anyone even uses that JA anymore) is another question

Coulda put a rema level shuriken on prime or aeonic but nooo

Shrink this model down and give it some stats.

And of course it's gonna be awesome and not sellable, just to kick in the balls people who can't find Besieged happening when they're online.

A ninja katana that dispenses shuriken
Irc augments and enchantments like this are why there are belts now

Oh, people here have clamored for that - even to the point of multiple inquiries via official SE forums that eventually garnered a dev response (spoiler: NO)

This feels like something that a wise old shinobi like Buukki would have been into? (much respect)

Can confirm there were those of us that took to the official forums to request this and were told that katanas were balanced to themselves as-is, so it would be impossible to then make them also dispense shurikens.

They thought that adding REMA shurikens would make Ninja unbalanced.

I don’t even want a rema level shuriken, just something with a little more oomph than some acc/racc/stp.

I would like to see throwing skill not be passive for NIN.

I have advocated many times for ninja to have better enfeebling spells and a wider selection, similar to RDM in that regard. However, if it's a creating new spells issue or whatever, I would be 100% okay with consumable throwing items that inflict potent debuffs for "X" duration. Would fit historical lore and be fun, plus SE clearly has the ability to quite easily create new items if spells are an issue.

Seems like a massive missed opportunity for the job imo.

Could always go /MNK and use your bare hands!
