Dear Ninja, For this year's Let It Snow Event I decided to go a little bit further than the years past. With the help of @Angelik Date, @Fuze and @Kvaset for contributing artwork, I'm proud to announce what the event will entail this year. Hidden City of Joy For the duration of the event, our good ol' Hidden City of Joy from back in 2018, will be open to all. This time, the city is 3x bigger, features a gun store where you can buy a pistol and ammo to kill zombies (and each other), new special enemies, as well as 4 new rewards. This will be our most lowbie friendly Christmas event yet. The city is also an Arena Zone, where a single bullet is usually a kill. So watch out for both Zombies and other player's gangs. You can enter the city by talking to an Event NPC in each village. The City will open from 5th December 2020 to 5th January 2020. New Rewards These are 3 new cosmetic rewards available from Let It Snow 2020. We also have a special new cosmetic item, Angel Wings , which will only be available through Let It Snow 2020 and never again through another event. After this event, we will only ever give out Angel Wings to players who bless the server a great amount in a single month. More on that in the future... Some of the rewards from previous years are also available again! You can also get Event Coupons by trading your spare Zombie Organs and Snow Balls. Free Stat Resets FreeStat Reset Visit the Hidden City of Joy and speak to Santa Claus. This year he has a Naughty or Nice list which he will use to decide if you are eligible for a present from me. If you are naughty, no worries, you can earn you way into the nice list! New Cash Shop Items Green War Armor is a time-limited exclusive item that will be on sale for the duration of Let It Snow 2020, after which, it will never be sold again. It is tradeable and treated like a normal item after claiming from your stash, but has no Ryo value. New Weapon Released Although not exactly Christmas-related, we also added a new weapon this update... Iron Scythe Our first ever scythe. It's still going to work the same way as a sword, but this will now drop from -redacted- and be available for Weapon Masters. Art done by @Fuze Side Notes I spend most of my time through the year on development, so I rarely get time to put together fun events like this. But it's always the most fun I have working on Nin Online. The end of the year is a special time for everyone because it's the advent of a new year. Let It Snow in Nin Online has less to do with Christmas and more to do with celebrating another year of Nin Online. So much has happened in the world this year, so I thought it would be nice if we put into extra effort this year to bring some seasonal festivities. We hope you enjoy what we have prepared!

Sounds fun, thanks everyone involved in making this happen

oh boy this year gonna be fun,great work!

Lets talk about the swords of the game. It is a topic made simply to discuss about swords and give some nice suggestion. I did not create this topic to complain about scythe, because I liked that update Full str wm 100+ str build Blood katana and bone sword stands in the top for obvious reason, and I think that the balance between the two was well made (one is faster and deal less dmg, and the other is slower but deal more damage). If you can't afford those swords, bandit blade should be the best choice since it has the same damage as bone and the same attack speed as blood katana. Chakra is not really a problem for full str wm. Shirokata and the lower tier swords has too low damage to be worth going over 100 str for it. 100 str build for exactly 100 strength, I feel like shirokata was probably meant to be compared to bandit blade since they are from the same lvl (40) and have the same str req (100). And to be honest, they are both comparable swords, shirokata is faster and regen chakra but deal less damage, and bandit blade is slightly slower and deal more damage. I think that the balance between the two was well made. Unfortunately, there is no reason to go for a 100 str build as a full strength weapon master since blood katana and bone sword was introduced. And now that the lvl cap is 60 those two swords are obsolete and are only good to be in our swords collections. Making them to be 85/90 str req should fix the problem everyone sees with those swords without having to change the way they work. Not to mention that there is a huge gap of str req (75 str to 100 str) while the str req from other swords just do jumps of 10 str. less than 100 str build All the lower tier swords make sense because they gradually become better and better when you lvl up. Everything is fine until muramasa appear at lvl 30 with 80 str req while religious katana is lvl 40 with 70 str req. It makes sense that religious katana is the better sword between the 2 since it is the higher lvl sword. But the str req of muramasa being higher than reli while being a lower lvl sword is disturbing. Making the str req the same or maybe lower than religious should be a simple fix for that sword. As an example, the double sword is lower lvl than reli but has the same str req (it is the only sword that pushes the users sometimes so it is the only reason people would want to use it). People would still have no reason to use muramasa if it has the same str req as religious since it has no special trick but at least it would be less bad than now and would be a good choice for lowbies. Hybrid wm 100+ str build Blood katana is definitely the best sword for hybrid over 100 strength (110). Its huge damage make it worth sacrificing hp/chakra and intellect and it gives a bonus of +5 chakra to help the hybrid fighters. Bone sword, shirokata, and bandit blade lower damage (and no added stats) make those swords hard to synergize well with any other masteries. less than 100 str build (75/70 str build) This is in my opinion the best for hybrid weapon master. Iron scythe and religious katana are probably meant to be compared since they are around the same lvl range and str req and are the last high lvl swords in the game (lvl 40+ below the 100 str req). The unique look of the scythe makes it stands out more. But the scythe should share the same str req as religious katana since religious katana now give +3 points in chakra. When we compare the balance between religious and scythe with bandit blade and shirokata or blood katana and bone sword we notice that both swords share the same str req, the fact that it is different for reli and scythe for no obvious reason is disturbing too. Lower lvl tier swords are meant for lowbies and I believe that no lowbies have 2 masteries yet to split stats Overall weapon master is probably the masteries with the highest content in the game, and the only thing that makes other swords seems useless (like shirokata, bandit blade and muramasa) is their str req compared to other swords. Making their strength req lower now that high lvl swords are in the game will make sense and would probably give more diversity in the build of hybrid weapon master. I think it was a good summary of the situations of swords right now, and I think I gave some good suggestions that are not game breaking but if you have something better in mind feel free to comment.

Can't wait to bust a cap in yo asses from stealth

This looks like the best event sence I joined in 2017! exciting !

Cant wait for this event!

Hype!

Fixed, thanks for being persistent!

First of all, Rory from the start said that current PB Great Puppets are just temporary and that they will be heavily reworked. Since then the only thing he did was nerfing the crushing wave dmg (it was way bigger at the beginning as most of you probably remember). I don't know what are Rory's ideas about puppets but imo they should get way more hp and instead get a CD after being destroyed. It would also be great if their appearance would be changed 'cause they look bad. In the manga/anime there's been several puppets that could serve as a model. That's how Sand's regular puppet summons were done and they look really cool. Another idea - that probably will never be applied since it would take a lot of work - would be giving PB different kind of puppets with various skills (for example tank puppet, dmg puppet etc.). As for 12g buff, I agree that it's too weak compared to PB and 7SM and needs to be changed. I think Itachi's solution about it is interesting. Lastly, in my opinion some of you are overestimating Great Puppet's power. They are OP only on like 3 maps in this game and on others usually they're just floating around mostly doing nothing (just watch videos that are made on wider maps and focus on GP's to see). You should also consider that Puppet Brigade has no stat buff 'cause we're losing it as soon as we summon the puppet. To me the most OP village buffs are those of 7SM org. If Great Puppets are to be nerfed, so should the swords.

There should be a icon next to your hotkeys, something transparent and small to not cause any obstruction that resembles a ninja either running or walking to show if we are in either running or walking mode. Just a small Quality of Life update to Help avoid running when trying to stand still and regen.

Before I start, can we please be civilized? If you disagree with something, it's completely fine just don't start dragging the person and their opinion. First of all we have the org problem. Our 12G buff is extremely underwhelming compared to what the other villages' orgs bring. They both have a lot of CC and in the 7sm's case, the stat buffs are quite literally broken. In the past few days, Sand literally proved that even with lower numbers their puppets can carry them to victory. I've been in 12G and I can assure you that most of us DO NOT want anything that is also BROKEN, we just want something to be able to compete with the other organizations mentioned above since clearly sheer numbers can't be the solution for everything. I'm sure fellow leafies have great ideas for a 12G ability. This screenshot shows how broken PB's puppets are and they're AOE. In maps like DB or KB, they make a HUGE difference. If you actually think this is fair then I don't know what to say at this point tbh. Secondly, our passive. Quite literally the most unreliable passive in the game. Don't get me wrong, WoF definitely saved me a couple of times and I doubt any leafies can say the contrary BUT since it's RnG you literally never know what's going to happen when you get it. It's literally a 5% chance but people still want to say that it's broken and the percentage is actually higher etc. The owner of the game literally said it himself. I think it's unnecessary to explain why WoF is bad at this point. Many leafies AND non leafies have said it. In a week I think I get like a total of 5 WoFs and I try to login every day, that should say a lot. I think it should be like a choice. You get 3 WoFs in a day (resets at daily reset) and basically you get up with 25% of your max HP and 15% of your max chakra. Or another idea: when your HP drops to like 200 HP, you get 50 hp back and a stat buff for 15 seconds. Please feel free to give other ideas too. If I missed something please add it @Ueda Please listen to us
