Lightning main always had an incredibly easy time with F2P progression. I actually just posted a pretty natural F2P progression in another thread here:

Hope that helps somewhat.

He said f2p. GNW is currently event only. This post was last edited by Kaigen at 2017-2-6 06:10

Of course they do. But that post wasn't intended to be for just your first few days. It's a progression for you over your first month or two in the game - and all those ninjas I mention with the exception of iruka are technically free.

It's something you work on gradually over time in stages. By the time you finish that progression you should be able to pull from kage treasures and have enough scrolls saved for a rare or two.

GNW tenten is like 20 bucks. Some people seriously do not have that much to spend on a single digital item. That team that guy posted isn't that good anyways. This post was last edited by Kaigen at 2017-2-6 06:12

Earth has a rough early game, and I would recommend Hinata to take the front position until he gets kimi. What level is he? If he can change mains soon he could * out earth main otherwise I'd recommend he make a new account. That is the last main I would recommend a new player start with.

Yes. Team 7 works for anyone new but the rest of that team list assumes lightning main.

Yeah I recommend it. The lightning main is very good at getting the most out of free ninjas, so if someone is strictly f2p and can't pay anything it's normally what I would recommend. I wish your friend luck!
