Recently, a few bosses were changed due to a exploit known as the Revive exploit and it made me start thinking about the way bosses are and the concept around them. There are different type of bosses in nin: Mini Bosses and Big Bosses Mini bosses can be done with a 1-2 man team as they are not as tanky and they don't hit too hard. Some of these bosses are Spider boss, Bandit bosses(excluding the 1 in the house that drops demon claws) and Dark Weasel. These bosses are fine as the rewards are low chance of dropping all while not being too difficult to beat with the maps being of a decent size for kiting, time to charge chakra/cast a heal, and cast jutsus Then you have Big Bosses which are pretty tanky in a sense and hit crazy hard sometimes they can 1 shot you. The drop rate is pretty bad on these bosses and the maps they are on are small and leave little room for error as 1 mishap may be you waking up in your hospital. Big bosses require a team effort which is not bad at all but even with a 4 man team it may not be enough as some of these bosses shoot aoes that hit through subs, the flicker melees are 1 shots, and the map is just too small to actually maneuver and do team tactics against them. Big Bosses like LOI Boss, Bone sword Boss, the Boss in cursed host, Kraken, Manda, and the Bandit boss that drops demon claws. All these bosses have atleast 1 thing in common across the board, They have smaller boss mobs on the map (Ie: Tentacles and Venomous Snakes) These type of bosses are tough in their own regard as they are Tanky, hit very hard, and there is limited mobility when fighting them. Manda Boss Suggestion: Decrease the amount of Venomous Snakes that spawn or raise the cooldown as to which they spawn. Decrease the damage of the Manda Boss homing attack and raise the boss's health. Kraken Boss Suggestions: Reduce Tentacle Health or damage, Make Kraken More tanky and lower it's damage by 15% OR make it less Tanky and keep it's damage HIGH. Ieyasu Boss(Demon Claws) Suggestion: Increase the size of the map, Reduce his damage and make him more tanky, or Make him less tanky and increase his damage slightly. Land of Iron Boss Suggestion: Make the Map slightly bigger, Make him Less Tanky and keep his damage the same, or make him more tanky and decrease his damage some. Bone Sword Boss Suggestion: Increase Map Size or make it an Instance Boss Fight similar to spider boss where you are warped to a different map to fight. Majority of the Bosses in Nin have a poor drop rate which everyone knows about already. On top of the poor drop rates some of these bosses can be quite difficult as they are Tanky ( Alot of Health) and they hit Hard with some of them being able to 1 shot. The bosses with items that are strong in damage are understandable to have a high drop rate as they are Very Rare items to have and you don't want 15 people running around with the items, HOWEVER the power these bosses have should be looked into or changed. These kind of Bosses are meant for a team effort and because of this these bosses should be MORE Tank than damage as a Very tanky boss that deals 70-120 damage per attack/skill they use makes a team fight more important as you can not solo a boss that has 30k health and hits for 70-120 alone. It requires a team effort to take down that HP and it would encourage team pve more.

I have been thinking about this for a while and it would be nice too have a custom slot on your character for an heirloom. Now there would be 2 Types of heirlooms i would like to introduce as a start, For PvP And for PVE. The PVE ones would be inspired by luck and the PVP once would be inspired by historic battles taken place in the past (P.S. the effects these will give are just mock up and could be heavily adjusted if ever implemented.) Rabbit's foot : Said to be lost by one famous hunter renown in the lands of nin. ( 0.5% droprate boost ) Crystal Necklace : a rare crystal gem like necklace worn by many leaders around the ninja world. ( Charge chakra at an increasingly rapid pace ) Broken Oni Mask : A mask worn by the secret elite that used to roam the lands of nin. ( 10% chance too gain 250 HP at point of death instantly ) Hunters Knife : a sacred knife used for decades for multiple purpose survival ( Damage against NPCs buffed by 5% ) Now these heirlooms are very rare, they would be an universal drop but with lower droprate then any item ingame. Make them super rare! If you think this is a good idea please let me know what you think and it can be worked out by the community and potentially staff members! Don't forget to upvote
