Hidden Arts

Hidden Arts is a Naruto inspired mod, which adds a selection of ninja abilities and weapons to the game. Hidden Arts was created specifically for the Hidden Arts SMP.

Ninpo:
Abilities are called ‘Ninpo’, and can be learned using scrolls. Ninpo are used by combining negative and positive energy: the player can create sequences of ‘negative’ and ‘positive’ using specific keybinds. Once a sequence matches a ninpo which the player has access to, the ninpo will be used. Each player starts with some basic ninpo, but more advanced techniques must be unlocked using scrolls. Players also have a ninpo level, which they can increase using skill upgrades.

Mutations:
Each player can also unlock one mutation. A mutation is a toggle-able buff which also changes the players cosmetic appearence. Some mutations include Crystal Body, which increases defence, or Inkling, which grants greater movement speed.

Weapons:
Some new weapons added by the mod are…
-Gladius: a faster sword which does slightly less damage
-Lance: a weapon which does bonus damage when the user is on horseback
-Paintbrush: slows enemies on hit
-Crystal Larissa: A crystaline spear
-Cursed Longsword: a heavy blade
Weapons are also created with compatibility with Better Combat in mind
