Whats the use of ninjas?

They kill 2-4 greed then disapear.... i mean droping 8 coins seems to be more usefull than creating a ninja as they will consume a peasant and cost 8 coins

[Mr Bodybag]

They actually don't consume a peasant. If you check back at the (dojo?) Where you buy them from, they respawn there as blank peasants.

they kill then disappear and return the next night
as long as there are tree they are pretty invicible.

I have not noticed this but still 8 coins for a couple of greed kills is not worth it... go over there and drop 8 cooins and u get rid of more greed than the ninja does

i've monitored the side i placed the ninja after the first night he never came back

Instead of dying, ninjas disappear in a smoke cloud and then respawn inside the wall as normal peasants. I don't use them anymore though because I don't think they are worth 8 coins right now, when I could get 4 archers for the same price who can fight, hunt for more money and live forever (or until the wall is destroyed)

spearmen are beasts in comparison to ninjas... they pay for themselves a couple of times over and kill quite a few greed before their weapon goes

Yeah, comparing the ninja and pikeman side by side, you get much better bang for your coin with the pikeman. Even if the two could kill the same amount of greed before returning to regular civillians the ninja costs four times as much and lacks the pike's additional income(which is effective income even in the winter!).

Ninjas need a buff!

Normally you only want a ninja when you know there gonna be a blood moon or when your planning to destroy gates cause they can destroy those -------->Crown Stealers<------- very quickly also can take half of the breeders hp(needs more experimenting but it does take a good chunk)

Also they dont need a tree to actually fight back I saw a ninja late to show up to the part wipe out and entire wave cause the greeds got stuck at a wall

Overall they are quite useful you just need to know when to buy them

[eragon951159]

in actual version have same cost as pikeman same group dmg as pikeman and on dawn day they pick fishing rods and catch fishes as pikemans in day.i use on begining two as support for archers they easyly wipe small groups later i expand on max fishing is effective income in winter

Ninja in good numbers are rly strong becos they can hit 5 greeds and kill them with katana and when they are running to them they are throwing shurikens. And yes they are worth it and I think they are stronger then pike men. In good numbers they can take out even big greeds
