About your stamina just use it for sweeps now, soon you'll start needing stuff like awakening materials and such which will also need some minor farming. Mostly now just pick a couple ninjas to sweep for frags and the rest for materials to upgrade stuff or just exp.

If you can get 720 coupons in the next two days from all the milestone rewards and such you might wanna pick up Iruka from the current event at 20% discount otherwise just save up till another event with good returns comes along.

Group contribution should only be used in one thing, upgrading your group skills. The first 5 that raise your basic stats are the ones that give the most power in return so I'd focus on those first. Wasting contribution on Lucky Wheel is not worth it unless you already max your skills.

While your group skills are low it's a far better investment to use your coins to donate to your group daily and level them up with that contribution and spending the leftovers to strengthen a bit or spend them for materials and frags on the Black market.

As a Water Main you definitely want 3 star Haku and Tenten for the 9tails event. Hinata and Sasuke are also very popular choices for pvp once they hit 2 and 3 stars respectively.

As for the shops from Arena you might want Kurenai, from Ranked Sai and Kakuzu, from Group Kisame and Survival you want pretty much everyone but Lee. Tobi's great at the moment although will get nerfed at some later point, Kabuto is very useful and Suigetsu is amazing for Water Main 9tails teams.


Just a side note do not expect to have a universal team, different modes in this game call for different kind of teams and builds. So you're gonna be using a different team for PvP, a different one for ranked, a different one for 9tails, another for Strong Approaching(lvl 43+ instance) etc.

Those bonus frags you're describing were first time clearance rewards. In elite instances sweep and manual are the same thing, on Plot ones you get more coins if you manual and pick up everything in the map but noone does that(at least that I know of :P )

As for iruka I'd say wait till you have the full amount needed, since events are the only way to get frags for him now there's little benefit to having like half of them. The base price is standard, what is random is if they will appear with a 0, 10 or 20 % discount. So if you go for him refresh till you get 20% off.

If you have instances in Main plot you have not completed then yes, it's definitely better to do those instead of farming stuff since they always come with a quest and quite a lot of exp if that's what you meant. If you meant sweeping Elite vs Plot then it's mostly what you need. I always do my Elite sweeps first to upgrade the ninjas I have decided are a "priority" like my Haku and Orochimaru and then move to Main Plot to farm materials for upgrading and awakening. If I get all I need there too I return to Elites and get some frags for some of my secondary ninjas. It doesn't mean that is what's best though, we all play this game differently so see what you like more and go for it!

The 9tails Invasion is a timed event that happens daily except Wednesday and Saturday at 20:10 server time. In short for 40 minutes you fight Kurama for a few turns before he kills you, you ressurect and do it all over again until time runs out or you kill it(damage is ofc *ulative from every single person participating). It awards coins, exp, a magatama and some coupons based on your damage and overall ranking. Since Kurama is immune to debuffs and combo conditions like low Float, Knockdown etc teams are focused on stat boosting, single target damage and chases that activate with x number of hits (like tenten's) This post was last edited by Wolfedood at 2016-10-17 18:25

good catch, I mixed the times with Sage :L This post was last edited by Wolfedood at 2016-10-17 18:27

instead of Hinata I'd go with Naruto for the clones. Kurama uses a standard attack that hits the whole front column on rounds 1 and 3 which at your level will most probably kill whoever is there instantly so it's good to have clones there. On round 2 he will either use Exploding Hell which will damage the whole team or Roar which will lower your stats but do no damage. On Round 4 he wipes everyone. Also he's weak to all 5 elements and Naruto has a Wind damage mystery so he does extra damage with it This post was last edited by Wolfedood at 2016-10-17 18:33

somewhat but not quite. Another useful piece of info is the mark on your skill descriptions. Think of a battle split into 2 segments. In the first one the AI goes through your whole team in the Move Order you've put them(and the opposing team) and executes all the skills with the mark on them. On the second segment it starts from the top again and now executes their standard attacks or skills without again in the move order they are. If you check haku's skill(and every other skill that generates a field) that they are not a skill which means it'll go during the standard attack "segment" and after your main has attacked. So you want Haku to be ideally at Move order 1 or at least before any of your Water units.

The formation I'd use is:

Naruto haku x
Main x x
Sakura x x

On round 1 you activate Haku's barrier, on Round 2 you use Shark Bomb if that's unlocked, I don't remember what level that one opens. If not you go for Naruto's Mystery. Round 3 either the main's poison skill if Shark Bomb is not unlocked or Sakura's heal if it is and when Sakura starts using her standard attack activate haku's field again(the second one is a one) which should damage Kurama right before the round changes. On round 4 activate Haku's barrier again if he's alive, and use whatever is off cooldown after the barrier launches

Congrats on your first 9tails!

Yeah Haku is rumored to be bugged at 2*, haven't tested it myself but I haven't seen anyone saying the opposite yet. Didn't wanna take the chance xD

This early I dunno how important those buffs are, I only started using them after we could kill it at my server and by then they play a big role. However after a week or two I'd say it's good to use them, the 30k won't be nearly as "much" as they are now.

Also there's no way to tell if it's gonna be Roar or Exploding Hell on round 2 as far as I know. Good call on that Haku reposition.

Just keep in mind that our class is a late bloomer, especially on 9tails. Without that 3* Haku and Tenten we lag behind quite a bit since our toolkit is geared towards pvp. Keep working on it and you'll see your damage skyrocket then :P

Sasuke is a rather squishy ninja so he's usually somewhere where he's somewhat protected. However on 3* his Mystery becomes a field effect one, much like Haku's, which means the lower his move priority the lower the chance his Field will get overwritten by an opponent's field. Especially as your server progresses you'll see a great many deal of people using a 3* Sasuke+Hinata combo, with Tobi getting added to the mix even further down the line.

For our server it took a month minus a few days. It greatly depends on the level of activity, and the amount of people spending money on power ups so there's no good estimate that works everywhere. But a month I think is the closest to it.

I'm unclear on who the 4th is in your current team but either way without 3* Haku Water teams are not as good as they can be. Once you upgrade haku Se7ens above described exactly the team and rotation I was using that was landing me in the top 10 as Water.

Before you upgrade Haku, since you now have Guy, you can try the Guy/Kakashi/Sasuke rotation. It won't deal as much as it would if you were Lightning or Wind but it's still a hard hitting early team.
Round 1 raise Sasuke's field, Round 2 use Kakashi and Guy, Round 3 Main and after the lightning ninjas attack use Kirin, round 4 put field back up and use Kakashi's mystery

At your level you should be able to survive if you're using Anbu support with water clone at the front
Edit: Which I forgot isn't unlocked yet...well Kakashi clone will protect you for one turn and you should be able to survive exploding hell but you might lose a ninja on round 4 :\

If you find that you need a team that can survive more you c*so try Guy/GNW Kiba/tenten with Akamaru up front. It's by no means a great team but it should do decent damage with two chases and a Tai buff. Either way once you get Haku to 3* you're dropping those
