The Ninja/Gunslinger Competitions

[Aaronock]

GS might be better in PVM but PVP Ninja's have the upper hand IMO. Cieda will stop GS attacks unless they are an agi spammer and FS = instant ranged death.

A lot of GS moves actually multi hit right through Cicada.

Status weapons like those that can curse, stun, or mute will probably be effective on many Ninja in the fight.

Triple Action: 3 Hits, so if you gang up you can already beat through a Ninja pretty easily.

Rapid Shower: 5 Hits, so two will already hit the Ninja immediately.

Desperado: 10 Hits, so 7 will hit the ninja.

Disarm: You could be janky and use this to disarm physical ninjas from their weapon which they will be dependent on to deal decent dmg.

If you, as a ninja, are forced to cicada to block off this damage you may very well die very easily. Eventually you will be forced to take an action that isn't Cicada or Illusionary Shadow or die anyway.

It isn't really an easy call to say who will win pvp. I'm saying this as someone planning to enter as a Ninja btw.
