Thanks for all the feedback guys, I'm happy to hear most of you like kenjutsu and the graphical improvements, both of which are going to further improve as we continue to grow.

I like this format of feedback, nice suggestion @Mars

I have a fair idea now of what bugs came with the update, and I'll make it a priority tonight to fix them with a patch release following soon after (soon in normal time, not in Vreg time).

Regarding chakra and damage consumption, we scaled kenjutsu to be balanced with current ninjutsu.
Some numbers:

- Kenjutsu damage: 66.67 - 100
- Kenjutsu chakra: 66.67
- Kenjutsu hits to kill at base damage: 15
- Kenjutsu total hits with full chakra: 15
- Kenjutsu total kills possible with full chakra at base damage: 1

- Chidori damage: 200 - 300
- Chidori chakra: 100
- Chidori hits to kill at base damage: 5
- Chidori total hits with full chakra: 10
- Chidori total kills possible with full chakra at base damage: 2

We didn't intend kenjutsu to replace our existing ninjutsu in battles, thus we kept it in balance with everything else. Because it has more speed, easier targeting and a wider range of attack we gave it 1/3rd the power of a chidori, but we also made it consume less chakra so you can use it 1.5x more frequently than chidori.

I think chakra and damage wise it's well balanced when compared to everything else (not considering that bug). And in order to fix the long battles we get, we need to reconfigure all of our jutsu together.

Known bug.

Note it says you are *most likely* using an outdated version, this is because you will also get this error if your firewall blocks your connection to our authentication server. Fix it by turning your firewall off or by making a firewall exception for the game client.

Signatures are limited to 300 characters, organization and clan fields are limited to 255 characters. I'll raise all three of those to 500 characters each. Don't get too crazy with it, you're welcome.

From what I remember @Vreg has dealt with a Paysafe-card donation in the past, although I might be mistaken.

how did it go?

You can send me a PM with your code + how much it is worth, and I'll mark it as a normal donation. Thanks for wanting to help out

Looks great, good job team.
Congrats Whata and Malix!

Edit:
The new model anatomy looks really similar to the one I'll link below

Looking at these two, surely it must have been referenced?

The one you linked below is the one we showed you, so congratulations for figuring that out. However, we're only using it as a visual reference because it's anatomically correct, our character model is being completely made in house.

@Tsuna I'm just pointing out the hole in your logic.

Eh, I actually don't like the building idea. A no kill zone building definitely, but not the quick regen part. Especially if we all agree that if you're not in that zone, you're fair game.

We dont have to include regen, that's just an idea but basically its main function is it being a safezone.

We are implementing an afk mechanism as soon as we release our upcoming permanent character statistics storage and leaderboards. The afk mechanism will automatically kick in after 5-10 minutes (maybe the community can decide the exact threshold) of inactivity and it will show an afk label next to the persons name along with making them immune to damage until they move again. No one will get penalties for hitting an afk person since those hits won't do damage.

I'd say 5 min threshold (chatting is included in activity) + an option to do it manually.
To avoid exploit for chakra regeneration, I'd suggest to turn that (+any type of regeneration) off while in the AFK state.

Perhaps like a sort of Freeze/Unfreeze command but with god mode immunity and without regen. That could work.

Manual afk sounds retarded to me, it can be too easily abused. The system will decide when you are afk. And yeah chatting + movement sounds about good to be the activity determinant.
