0/10 for creativity, it's just a modified sin

5/10 for practicality
and you know what just take another -5 points because it's a complete and utter copy of NARUTO!!!!!! You even directly copied the lines of some of the earlier episodes as skills (espionage and so on). At the very least you watched it subbed at some point! xD

Complete copy of Naruto? Hmm no?

Go on wiki, type Ninja and look with your own eyes. I used a real sort of Ninja, and if Naruto did too, good for them, but I didn't copy them as they didn't invent the Ninja.

@System: FF didn't get the Ninjutsu system wrong, they just didn't implemented the WHOLE Ninjutsus. I know what a Ninjutsu is, and which kinds of Ninjutsus there are. They just took a single one (The Shinobi-Iri), developped it and added some of the FF magic to make it better.

Ok, that restores some of my faith in capcom; it sorta bugged me, I was accusing them of pre-teen creativity.

And at that that means the idea isn't based on pre-teen logic, so it stands a chance to contain some interesting stuff, even if the overall identity has glitches.
So on the concept:

Quote:

Assassination - For each rank of Assassination, you are 3% more likely to get a critical hit when stabbing an enemy. Assassination skills become more effective with higher Assassination.

What does 'when stabbing an enemy' mean?
I imagine I can stab an enemy with daggers and swords too, but would be slashing them a large part of the time as well.
So would I with a katana;
I guess only a claw or held spear weapon stabs all the time.

Which leads to, if an assassination stab is not something bound to 1 weapon how are you checking weather or not someone is stabbing?
Is it a overriding attack animation whenever behind your target.
Or does it work on specific animation in the attack animation cue, which would become typed?

And why use crit chance? Thats kind of already been covered, theres plenty of other ways to deal extra damage.
The chance affects your stabs to be armor ignoring.
Or inflict a condition for 1 second for each rank in assassination
Or deal 2 bonus damage for each rank in assassination
Or whatever fits assassination

Quote:

Stealth - For each rank of Stealth, you are 2% less likely to get attacked by monsters when in your aggro circle.

Quote:

Stealth Insigna - +5% Running Speed

O.o move faster permentently, reduced chance to get aggro.
Add a armor boosting skill and you have the ultimate running class.
Good thing you didn't give them more than 2 energy regen to maintain more enchantments
Stealth needs a nerf on running, and a effectiveness boost for PvP.

As you don't have a specific weapons skill, but do have a martial type weapon I suggest you use stealth for that purpose.
Perhaps rename the katana, because it is the weapon of honorable samurai not stealthy ninja's.(I forgot the name of that half long blade ninjas like, and can't look it up right now)
It increases damage and crit chance with the weapon, as well as:

A chance to be unbockable when your target is not targeting you.
or
A % damage increase to targets not targeting you.
or
A chance for you to break targeting(un-aggro) for a short while.
(Would work against players too, it's very powerful so it would last only 1 second; except when in a certain elite stance/enchantment/jutsu then it last 2 seconds per application)
(that would open up a nice conditional on skills, in the stealth attribute)

My 2 cents, which are euro-cents so they go for 3 times the post length dollar cents do now
