Advanced Weapon Attack Techniques
Advanced Weapon Attack Techniques
Yellow Essence
A secretly-used currency. Necessary to buy items or upgrade
weapons. A must-have when going to the Weapons and
Tools Shop.
“These are the most important, most essential techniques
available to us. However, I cannot tell you everything. I can instruct
you only enough to get you started.”
Wall-based Attacks
Of course you can attack while performing wall-based actions; the
damage potential is also extreme. You cannot be called a true
Ninja if you cannot use the walls properly.
Ultimate Techniques
After defeating enemies, Essence is released into the air, where it
floats. If you press the Y Button and hold it in these
situations, your weapon will absorb nearby Essence and become
charged with power until it is ready to explode. That is when you
should release the Y Button. The pent-up energy of the Essence
lends an unfathomable strength to your attack.
Ultimate Techniques for each weapon are different. Also, you must
not forget that enemies defeated by an Ultimate Technique release
more Essence than usual. Ultimate Techniques are like breeder
reactors for Essence; that is the whole point.
Now go and fight! Learn to use various weapons to their fullest
and become a true Ninja Master!
Essence
Essence
Essence consists of energy-laden souls left over after enemies are
dispatched. If you move near them Ryu will absorb them.
There are multiple types and sizes of Essence; the larger the
Essence the more useful it will be.
Blue Essence
Replenishes some of Ryu’s health.
Red Essence
Replenishes some of Ryu’s Ki power.
