Yes, your armor is destructible just like in real life. If a low level ninja wants to sit there and attack you for a week, they should be able to destroy your armor and eventually kill you.
With that said, there should also be a way to repair your gear. I think I will make it so you can either pay yen to the blacksmith or spend ep and repair it your self. Until that is put in, I will turn the armor damage off.
Oh man, that was a lot of work! ... I fixed the glitch with peoples armor falling off while fighting and then some ... while I was fixing the armor, I discovered that the entire armor/weapon system was not working right. If your stats were the right mix, you had indestructible gear an were invincible. So this is the way armor/weapons work ...
Your gear has min max stats and dp. For armor, it will block min max hits and take the blocked amount as damage for you.
Similar for weapons, it has min max stats and will take the dealt damage as dp so basically dp on the sword means how much damage you can deal with it before it breaks.
That is the way things were intended in the first place but I must have been programming at 3AM again. :)
PS: As you can see from the news, not a lot of new features lately. We expanded pretty quick for a few weeks so now I have been busy fixing some of the issues that came along. New stuff should be coming soon.
We had a short down time this morning while more RAM was added to the database server. Hopefully this will make the site run even better.
I also got my mail working again so if I haven't responded to your email yet, please re send it because your last message most likely went lost.
Sorry, I am having some email problems again. I have not been able to send emails for about a day now. Hopefully things will be restored by tomorrow. I have completed the final steps to moving to the two new dedicated servers. Most of the site was moved last week and this weekend I did the email but due to unanticipated circumstances I lost outgoing email. I can still receive email so I know there has been donations and questions. I will do what I can without emailing you guys back but if you don't hear form me, do not worry. Thanks for yoru understanding.
Happy St. Patrick day everyone! To celebrate this happy occasion we will have double XP for missions all day! Get your training on!
My email is back! ... I think ... but in the process I did loose all email for the last few days ... sorry guys. I know I owe some of you Yen and Items so please use the contact us form and send me a message with your donation amount, email address and choice of weapon or armor and I'll give it to you ASAP. Thanks a lot and sorry. :)
Sorry guys. It has been brought to my attention that a few of you have been trying to contact me with no avail. Apparently when I moved the servers my email went out. I'm not sure what is wrong with it but I will try to fix it ASAP. People who have donated, please don't worry, I will award you your items and Yen (plus interest) as soon as communications is restored. Hopefully latest sometime tomorrow afternoon.
There has been a surge in complaints about people power leveling by buying cheap items. There are a lot of people who put in the time and effort to get where they are and it is not fair to them. This is why from now on you will grow out of the ability to buy a few items like rocks, sticks, veils and so on. You will still get those through missions when you train. Have fun and keep it fair! :)
I have built out the missions all the way up to 1000. The level increase changes after a while and the levels go all the way up to 325000. It will take me a while but picture and text is coming to all the missions. Right now the arias don't have the same minimum level requirements but they will soon be synced up again.
For now, enjoy the high missions!
I am so happy! You guys showed a tremendous amount of support in the last few weeks and have donated a lot! I put that money to good use and got us a new dedicated server. It should be ready sometime today and I will move our database over. Unfortunately there will be a few hours of down time due to this but once we are back the site will be much better. ... PS: there might be a graphical dueling system on the way but this is top secret ninja stuff!
