Ninja

The **Ninja** is an Evasive class, utilizing it's abilities to keep itself safe while doing damage.  Performs best with Shuriken, but still does great with One-Handed Melee Weapons.  The Ninja's Skills primarily affect movement and safety.  The Ninja has an easier time critical hitting and can easily avoid fall damage entirely.

## Stats and Info:

* ### Class Weapon: Aether Tanto

Aether is a Tanto Blade that causes enemies to bleed and throws kunai after seven fast swings. It does not do a large amount of damage on hit however. It can be crafted at an Anvil with 1 Ethereal Blade, 2 Steel Bar, 2 Wodden Log and 3 Phase Matter. You can craft Ethereal Blades at a Furnace with 12 Ether. Ether is found by killing Gosmet (Best Target), Spookit, Skimbus, and Squeem. Craft Ethereal Blades using a furnace and 12 Ether.

## Skills (Techs):

* #### Level 4: Flash Jump (Leg Tech, Energy Activation Cost 10/Jump, Max 2 Jumps)

The Ninja is an expert of movement, and is capable of changing direction quickly in midair. While in midair, the Ninja can jump extremely fast in a mostly horizontal, slightly vertical direction. The Ninja is also invulnerable for 0.2 seconds upon activation, and will take 0 fall damage upon landing when this ability is activated at least once.

NOTE: If you use flash jump and then use another ability, you WILL lose your Safe Fall buff! Beware! You can slightly mitigate this by using one flash jump, the other ability, and then your last one.

* #### Level 8: Vanish Sphere (Head Tech, 25 Energy Activation Cost, 50 Energy Per Second)

Activation Ability [F] The Ninja transforms into an invulnerable spike ball, draining energy quickly while active. The invulnerability ends when you run out of energy, however you can maintain transformation as long as you like, which can be useful in many situations. Unlike other spheres, the Ninja's Vanish Sphere will increase in speed the higher your Agility.

* #### Level 16: Shadow Step (Body Tech, 20%-100% Energy Activation Cost)

Activation Ability [G] The Ninja disappears for 2 seconds and gains temporary invulnerability until it reappears at target location (cursor). If you have a sharp weapon equipped (e.g. 1 handed swords) the Ninja will slash upon reappearing. This slash will always cause bleeding. Has a cooldown of 3 seconds. Beware, as the Ninja loses 20% resistance during the cooldown. Can go through anything, however during missions/dungeons it cannot gdfgdo through walls.

* #### Level 32: Wall Cling (Leg Tech, Energy Activation Cost 15/Jump)

The Ninja has mastered the art of jumping. A direct Flash Jump upgrade, the ninja may now cling to walls by moving against them, in addition to refreshing it's jumps upon clinging. You may hold [S] to slide down while clinging, and hit space while clinging or sliding to jump off. Move away from the wall to cancel the effect.
