Katana

Katanas are a weapon classification in Ninjala. Katanas are jack-of-all-trades weapons, being easy and simple to use, with balanced stats in damage and mobility. Because of this, the Katana class is a great weapon class for beginners. Katanas use a variety of slashing and stabbing attack, depending on the subclass, and are capable of swift attacks.
