Gum Weapon Parameter Adjustments
The Ninjala development team is dedicated to ensuring that players can enjoy a wide variety of battling styles.
After careful observation of winning percentages by each gum weapon and weapon popularity, we have implemented a host of balance adjustments.
These adjustments focus on buffing weapons with weaker abilities, as well as reducing the power of Pow Wow Cannon and Oedo Cannon.
Since this update also includes the introduction of the fifth Shinobi Card slot, Shinobi Cards will be adjusted overall.
We hope these refinements will allow players to continue to enjoy diverse styles of play in Ninjala battles.
*Balance adjustments will also take effect in Story Mode.
Ninja Yo-yo | Shinobi Spinner | ASAKUSA Wheel |
---|---|---|
-Increased the amount of life recovered by Inside Loop.
The amount of life recovered was too low in comparison to the activation conditions, so it has been increased.
This adjustment should make it even easier to fight continuously with a big weapon.
Mellow à la Mode | Trick Ball | Spinning UFO |
---|---|---|
-Shortened the time required to activate Time to Relax.
It has been determined that this ability was harder to activate than intended and as a result, the activation conditions have been relaxed.
Specials will now be even easier to activate with skilled play.
Pow Wow Cannon | Oedo Cannon |
---|---|
-Extended the charge time for Lv 2-3 Normal attacks.
-Reduced amount of S-Energy recovered from successfully guarding with a Wide Break attack.
Previous adjustments focused on this weapon's Normal attacks, but because its combat capabilities still seemed a bit too strong, its strength has been further reduced.
Players will now have to carefully manage their S-Energy in fights.
Blast Barrier
-Shortened the duration of barriers placed on yourself and your team.
While it is not a skill that directly affects scores, the duration of barriers felt a touch too long and has been reduced as a result.

Gum Boost Impact
-Damage now occurs when the shockwave hits.
Utsusemi Master
-Increased cost.
-Increased cost of Gum Damage+.
With the addition of the fifth Shinobi Card slot, the total cost that can be equipped has also increased. With this in mind, card costs have been adjusted based on their abilities.
Ninja Sense Pro
-Reduced cost.
-Reduced the cost of Search Distance+.
-Reduced the cost of Movement Speed+.
-Reduced the cost of Gum Damage+.
The costs of these cards were too high compared to their effects, so they have been reduced.
Last Spurt
-Added the negative effect of slowing down the recovery speed of S-Energy.
Last Spurt had no downsides and had buffs that were easily activated, so it has been weakened.
Similar to the downside of Starting Dash, using this card will now reduce your S-Energy recovery rate and put you at risk of running out of resources in the early or middle stages of battle.
Drone Hustle
-Life will now decrease while speeding up the rate at which drones appear.
Drone Hustle had no downsides and had buffs that were easily activated, so it has been weakened.
Speeding up the appearance of drones for long periods will now require greater caution, since your health will be reduced and you will be vulnerable to sudden enemy attacks.
Gambler Card
-Reduced the amount increased by "Win! Ninjutsu Gauge Up!".
With five Shinobi Card slots, there are now more opportunities to boost your Ninjutsu Gauge using Shinobi Cards and Assist Codes. As a result, the effectiveness has been adjusted to compensate.
Battle Adjustments
Assist Codes have undergone adjustments.
The addition of a fifth Shinobi Card slot means there are now more buffs available from Assist Codes in total. With this in mind, the following effect values have been adjusted.
Sudden Burst
-Reduced the amount recovered by Life Recovery.
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Master of Change
-Reduced the recovery rate from Recovery Rate+.
Wall Shooter
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Ninja Sense Pro
-Reduced the amount gained from Movement Speed+.
Discerning Eye
-Reduced the increase from Movement Speed+.
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Gum Guard Master
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Starting Dash
-Reduced the increase from Movement Speed+.
Stealing Hyena
-Reduced the increase from Movement Speed+.
Giant Killer
-Reduced the recovery rate from Recovery Rate+.
-Reduced the amount recovered by Life Recovery.
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Parting Utsusemi
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
-Reduced the amount given by Allies' Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Gum Boost Impact
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Quick Respawn
-Reduced the increase from Movement Speed+.
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Energy Hoarder
-Reduced the increase from Movement Speed+.
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Strike Big
-Reduced the amount recovered by Life Recovery.
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Last Spurt
-Reduced the hastened amount of time from Hasten Life Recovery.
Ninjutsu Stock
-Reduced the amount recovered by Life Recovery.
Iron Bind
-Reduced the amount recovered by Life Recovery.
Turnabout Guard
-Reduced the amount recovered by Life Recovery.
Berserker
-Reduced the amount recovered by Life Recovery.
-Reduced the amount gained from Ninjutsu Gauge+.
Drone Hustle
-Reduced the amount recovered by Life Recovery.
Resolution of Known Issues
-Fixed an issue that prevented official icons/badges, Set-Drone buff icons, and "under attack" icons from being displayed in the Teammate List when a teammate is attacked.
-Fixed an issue where performing certain inputs immediately upon receiving an attack while S-Blast is available for activation would allow a player to cancel the S-Blast and act again.
-Fixed an issue that allowed players using Slash Kicks X or Crushpop to perform the third enhanced attack after canceling the second enhanced Wide attack with a jump or dodge.
-Fixed an issue where using a Wide attack with Pop Eye or Cerberus against a Ninjutsu would cause the Ninjutsu to miss.
-Various adjustments and bug fixes have been implemented to ensure a smooth and enjoyable gameplay experience.
