More About MMORPG with Ninja Class
Ninja class is one of the exotic variants of classical thief archetype. The gameplay for the characters with this role is concentrated on stealth, trap setting and spying. Even though they're often weaker than other classes, Ninjas are mighty at duel combat: these heroes can swiftly dodge and strike the enemies at the most unexpected moment, which helps them always to keep an advantage over the enemy.
Most of the ninjas use the light and thin armour which allows them to move quickly; their weapon of choice are swords or light melee weapons, sometimes very exotic, such as giant shurikens or katana. Unfortunately, MMORPG with Ninja Class rarely provides an opportunity to practice magic playing for heroes of that role. Unlike rogues and thieves, ninjas in roleplaying videogames rarely positioned as dishonourable heroes who practice lockpicking and thievery. Instead of that, they're more close to Assassins, the professional killers. Still, some MMORPG with Ninja Class endows them with the most unusual abilities, from thieves skills to abilities to perform as heroes of Tank role.
The role of Ninja Class in MMORPG can vary depending on the projects. Their most common specialization is damage-dealer, good at duel close combat. At the same time, Ninjas can have not only extremely high power and damage rate but also a significant amount of health and stamina, so that they can perform the role of Tank. Still, this class requires excellent concentration and knowledge of gameplay mechanics; without that, it's much more hard to use the stealth functions correctly.
