OK then, so let's get started on the troop:
The Ninja
Alternative Names: The Phantom Ninja
Sound OP? Well I've tried to balance it with the stats
Level/ DPS/ HP/ Cost (DE)
1 110 1900. 400
2 165 2000 450
3 200 2200. 500
4 215. 2500. 550
5. 230 2800 600
6. 275 3100 650
Constant stats:
Speed: 36
Favourite Target: Splash Damage Defences (Also does 2x damage Xbows and Infernos
Attack Rate: 2 seconds
Training Time: 40 minutes
Housing Space: 6
Damage Type: Single Target
Range: 0.6 tiles on ground but 1.0 in Air
Targets: Ground and Air Troops
Type: Ground Troop
Now, you may be thinking, what is the troop ability!
Well, it's speed is +4 than a goblin speed
Example: Goblin movement speed is 32 so a ninja will be +4 so it's 36.
It can split only into two if it loses half of it hit point.
Example: L1 Ninja HP is 1900/2 = 950 HP left
It can sense and strike clan troops approaching it in his own radius, which is about 4 tiles like a motar weakness point. A way he does this is by disappearing in a smoke bomb then reappearing behind the enemy with his staff or pole as the same range of a barbarian to strike. If the troop weak like in the Tier 1 and some in Tier 2 it can hit it with 1 or 2 shots the rest will take more hits to be defeated.
He can also shoot shurikens (Shooting Stars) over the wall or at air troops which will cause the same damage as hitting a ground troop. It has the same range of a archer and a wizard.
This troop will be unlocked in Dark Barracks Level 7, which will cost 4,250,000 elixir and 10 days to upgrade.
Upgrade Costs:
Level/ Upgrade Cost/ Upgrade Time
2 25,000 3 Days
3 30,000 5 Days
4 35,000 7 Days
5 40,000 9 Days
6 45,000 12 Days
Now let's see how this troop will affect the game.
Attacking Strategies
✔Never send in only one of this troop! One Ninja cannot take out a defence on it's own; send it together with golem or pekka or giants and for support wizards or archers or witches to share out the damage more!
✔You can use this troop to sprint and release spring traps but WATCH OUT! for huge bomb because he will get annihilated against them. Always send in this troop in the middle or last; remember, we want the troop to survive more, we want to utilise the his power and speed.
✔Send in this troop backed with a Healer/Heal Spell; giving the troop more HP means more HP there to be chance of survival.
✔Remember that raging this troop will increase its DPS and Speed!
Army Compositions
✔ BarchNin (Barbarians + Archers + Ninja) - FARM - Send in 60 Barbarians and Archers each behind them send 12 Ninjas with some wall breakers and giants to fill in the army camp. Then send in your heroes and you could even get the town hall!
✔GoWiNin (Golems + Wizards or Witches + Ninjas) (pronounced GoWin) - WAR - Very similar to the GoWiPe attack, except you have Ninjas rather than Pekkas! The Ninjas help the Golems by weakening the defences by throwing shurikens from a distance like a archers or wizard, so Golems can move into the base easily. Wizards and Heroes do the rest!
✔ArchNin (Archers+ Ninjas) - FARM - Same as BarchNin but with 80-100 or even more Archers instead of 40-50 Barbarians and Archers.
✔HoWiNin(Healers+ Hog Riders + Wizards + Ninjas - WAR - As the Hog Riders rush ahead to attack defences rub inside the base, the Wizards, Healers and Ninjas can attack and support the hogs from behind and clan up the mess.
✔Add Healers to any of these arm'ies to make the attack even more powerful!
Defensive Strategies
✔Well keep your splash damage centralised! That's the main point, really. Let your point defences take these troops out.
✔Utilise your traps! Ninjas can't deal with Bombs and Giant Bombs damage! Waste their HP by blowing them up!
Defending From The Clan Castle:
✔This troop is very good in defence. Most troops that attack it die of it disappearing and reappearing techniques only with a few hits.
✔To kill this troop, NEVER use goblins, Archers, Barbarians or hog riders. The best troop to counter the Ninja is the Valkyrie, Wizards but Witches would do too. This is because of their DPS and the amount they can spawn out.
TRIVIA
✔ The Ninjas Uniform changes colour in each level from L1 white to L2 orange to L3 red to L4 purple to L5 brown to L6 black.
✔ His staff or pole stays the same in L1 to L3 then changed into a sword in L4 to L6.
✔A maximum of 40 Ninjas can fit in a set of maxed army camps, increasing to 46 if you count the 6 that can fit in a maxed Clan Castle.
✔A rage spell will increase the Ninjas DPS and Speed.
Thanks for reading this, and i hope to get evaluation or feedback from you guys of what you think of the Phantom Ninja.
