Gum Weapon Parameter Adjustments

The Ninjala development team is dedicated to ensuring that players can enjoy a wide variety of battling styles.
After careful observation of winning percentages and popularity by gum weapon and Shinobi Cards, we have implemented a host of balance adjustments.

These adjustments mainly concern strengthening Drill Beast and Corn Bat, which have seen lower winning percentages, in addition to weakening Scrap Saber, Chewing V, Matsuri Board, and Camu Camu Plate, which have seen high winning and usage percentages.
In addition, we have implemented a number of adjustments to each type of Gum Shoot as well.

We hope these refinements will allow players to continue to enjoy diverse styles of play in Ninjala battles.

IPPON Katana Scroll Blade Shinobuzz Paper Fan

・Charging Slash has received the following adjustments:
 Reduced time you are immobilized after guarding.
 Increased damage.

Drill Beast Corn Bat

・Increased Auto-proximity distance.
 *Auto-proximity refers to the act of approaching opponents during various normal and break attacks.
・Slightly increased back attack damage.
・Here and There has received the following adjustments:
 Reduced hitstop duration during diving attacks.
 Increased damage from jump attacks.
 Increased the time that you and your opponent are immobilized after a jump attack is guarded against.

In addition to increasing the auto-proximity distance and making it easier to approach opponents, Here and There can now be implemented faster when being guarded against, making it easier to continue your attack.
Furthermore, the damage from back attacks and Here and There jump attacks has been increased, raising your ability to destroy drones.

Scrap Saber Chewing V

・Decreased damage dealt from wide attacks.
・Increased Froggy Block cooldown time.

Since wide attacks are easy to perform continuous hits with and deal damage to multiple players at once, we have reduced its strength.

Matsuri Board Camu Camu Plate

・Decreased speed adjustment.
・Extended cooldown time.

Due to the weakening of Starting Dash leading to an overall depletion of S-Energy that caused Sweet Ride to become an extremely powerful means of traveling, we extended its cooldown time in order to weaken its mobility.
From now on it will be even more important to find ways to battle during times when Sweet Ride cannot be used.


Shinobi Disco

・Increased the amount of Ninjutsu Gauge required to activate.
・Reduced the time opponents are forced to dance when attacked.


Gum Net

・Reduced the duration after Gum Net is deployed.
・Reduced cooldown time.

Gum Net gives players the strong ability to perform a Gum Bind after landing a hit as well as a strong defense by cancelling out other Gum Shoots.
Since this adjustment reduces the Gum Net's defense after it's deployed, you will need to take care to avoid interference from other players when attacking after performing a Gum Bind.

Gum Laser

・The following adjustments have been made when performing a small Gum Laser attack:
 Reduced range.

・The following adjustments have been made when performing a medium Gum Laser attack:
 Decreased damage.
 Shortened active duration.
 Reduced range.

・ The following adjustments have been made when performing a large Gum Laser attack:
 Shortened active duration.
 Reduced range.

Like Gum Net, Gum Laser also gives players a strong capability to perform a Gum Bind while having a strong defense, so we have made adjustments to reduce its strength overall.

Gum Kunai

・The following adjustments have been made when using a medium number of Gum Kunai:
 Sped up launch time.
 Increased the gap in time between launches.
 Adjusted where they appear.
 Shortened range.

・The following adjustments have been made when using a large number of Gum Kunai:
 Increased gum damage.
 Reduced the time of Gum Bind.
 Increased cooldown time.
 Sped up launch time.
 Shortened range.

A medium number of kunai are easier to incorporate with the Corn Bat, while a large number of kunai greatly increases the return when all of them hit their target.
Since the sped up launch time improves players' ability to throw kunai, we have adjusted the range, cooldown timing, and Gum Bind duration as well.


Gum Boost Impact

・Increased cost.
・Shockwaves are now easier to activate if you do not perform a Gum Boost for a certain amount of time.

Gum Boost Impacts have the unique ability to occur after achieving a hit with a shockwave, which made it a more convenient means of attacking in comparison to the various attack techniques for each weapon.
In order to avoid the characteristics of other weapons being ignored due to a bias towards this one specific ability, we have decided to reduce the ease of its use in this adjustment.


Resolution of Known Issues

・Fixed a bug that caused the special gauge to recover an unintended amount when performing a diving attack or jump attack via Here and There.
・Fixed a bug where the Ninjutsu Guage did not increase when performing a diving attack or jump attack via Here and There.
