Ninja

The Ninja is a Supporter Type unit unlocked at Player Level 3. It costs 3.

Data
 Description : “Quickly attack units with sharpened claws. Able to elude range attacks once. Units able to climb walls.”

Ninja has fairly low HP and rather low damage, but gets a +200% damage boost against other units. It is effective against low HP enemies, but in straight-up combat it will loose to most opponents. However, it will primarily target range units, against whom it is very effective against. This is further aided by the Hide ability, allowing it to neglect damage from the first ranged attack that hits it. It can also climb walls and moves very fast.

Skills
Ninja has the ability to climb up enemy base’s walls and towers, making easier for it to take out ranged units (who often patrol on the lookouts of barracks). Also, despite its default damage being low, when ninja attacks enemy units, it deals x3.00 damage based on its default damage.

The ninja has also a minor skill: when attacked for the first time and hit by a ranged unit, the attack nullifies and the Ninja isn’t knocked back (in cases like the wind cannon or the cannon) and also nullifies combustion and poison damage (by Fire Archers, mortars, and if the enemy archer has equipped a Poison Bow). Note that when Ninja attacks it does a small leap towards the enemy, so that if the enemy unit fires, the Ninja dodges it without using its minor skill.

Weapons
Iron Claw: slightly increases attack and defense.

Bird Claw: trades some speed for slightly more attack power.

Bandit Claw: replaces its damage booster with +200% damage to resource facilities and changes the priority target to resources.

Gold Claw: largely increases hitpoints and significantly increases attack power, but costs significantly more.

Bee Needle: trades hitpoints for attack power and speed, also inflicts poison at high levels.

Crab Claw: reduces speed largely and attack speed largely, but increases attack power greatly. It also alters the priority target to Units.

Kunai Knife: significantly increases hitpoints, attack power, speed, and gives it the Shadow Clone ability. However, it greatly increases the price.
