Sfh 3 ninja

Ninja is a female class and one of the eight classes.

They are masters of stealth, who use Duals and Shotguns and can't use Submachine Guns for secondary weapon.




Description[]

Ninjas are new class in Strike Force Heroes series. They are offensive and support class, good at long range with Duals, but more powerful with Shotguns. The most common trait and power that makes the Ninja different from other classes is invisibility. With this trait, named Chameleon, they can become invisible to enemies if they aren't close to them or not shooting, and give surprise attacks. Almost all of their weapons have low fire rate. That is why Uzi and FMG9 duals are highly recommended for this class. Full auto weapons boost their offensive power.

Strategies[]

As[]

Ninjas are best used for assassinating single enemies, as they can sneak close without enemies noticing. Their low health makes them vulnerable to attacks of enemies in a group. Because of that, Ninjas shouldn't be attacking groups. As a Ninja, your objective is to surprise enemies with your attacks while they are not with their teammates. Enemy Elites will always be your worst nightmare. The fire rates from most of Elite's weapons are stronger than many weapons that Ninjas use, Killstreaks will automatically reveal you to their other teammates, and Elites with Elemental Weapons in particular are hard to avoid as they react more quickly than Juggernauts. In addition, Elemental Weapons will almost always inflict status effects towards you, leaving you vulnerable for a long period of time. Hence, you should never fight enemy Elites alone. When using Smoke bomb, take caution of where you land as you may teleport close to an environmental hazard which can kill you if you don't avoid them. Also, if you land close to groups of enemies, you will likely be killed very quickly unless you have teammates nearby to keep them distracted.

Do note that Ninjas have the second highest critical chance (40%), so weapons with increased critical chance/damage like Ballers, can highly boost their effectiveness in combat. They are the most mobile class if you don't control them.

Against[]

Ninjas are weak against most enemies with high health due to the fact that they can only surprise an enemy up close and cannot deal damage high enough from most weapons due to their low fire rate (consider DB12, Uzi and their custom variants as exceptions). Juggernauts can deflect damage done from Ninjas with their Deflective Armor trait and "I'm The Juggernaut" killstreak. Their Flame Armor can also ignite nearby enemies, making it useful for revealing Ninjas that tend to be invisible. Mercenaries can retaliate against surprise attacks from Ninjas with their machine guns, which have a fast firing rate. Engineers can use their turrets or rocket sentry to quickly dispatch Ninjas and have high accuracy when it comes to dealing with them. Elites have the biggest advantage when it comes to dealing with Ninjas. Given their abilities and weapons, they are specifically designed to counter against most of the Ninja's abilities.

While a single Ninja doesn't pose much of a threat, they can become dangerous in larger numbers as they can chase you with their quick moving speed, leaving you without an option to dodge them. Their Deadly Shuriken ability can pose a threat to unwary players. However, do note that enemy Ninjas often get stuck with this killstreak after they have fired all of their shurikens, leaving them vulnerable to attacks.

Killstreaks[]

Smoke bomb - Ninja gets teleported to a random place in the map and gains invisibility for a few seconds.

Trivia[]

  • Ninja class is a fairly new one in SFH 3, but in Strike Force Heroes: Extraction, a Japanese character called Ninja is one of playable heroes. She was also female.
  • Ninja class can be described as a mixture of the General from Strike Force Heroes 2 (dual-wielding) and Assassin from the original game (shares the same abilities and killstreaks).
  • The shirtless outfit is most likely a reference to Quiet from Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
