  • So you say that better later then never. Then tell me how has this move changed the game itself? People who have six path naruto are sitting at the top, only change is that now those who can't or wont recharge wont be able to match them. Naruto is still out there in the fights. Stopping more people from buying him is just making sure that those who have had a bad time cause they don't have naruto have a even worse time cause now they can't even get naruto if they spend their time saving coupons. Who is supposed to be gaining a better game experience from this?

Oasis made a mistake making him so available. He's pretty much broken the meta at this point; it's just come down to get him and put everything into him. After all, his explosive mode just heals him for the majority of damage he might take, plus you've to get past his evade AND the likely aspect of an Earth Main shielding him. By the time you actually get to him, you've lost a ninja or two and he's unable to be killed given the mass amount of healing he's done. That and you won't do enough damage to offset what he heals.


The problem is by doing what I've mentioned prior they've given players who grabbed him a significant advantage, so a choice has to be made. Just let the meta run rampant and the game essentially become Six Paths Naruto Online, which in turn will probably cost Oasis more money in the long run than they're making; especially given what most players will do is just spend for him rather than much else. The second option is to limit his availability and minimize the damage he's done to the game. I can see why you think it's unfair, I do but if Oasis don't clean up their own mess now; well you don't want that. I suggested to lower the healing from Six Paths explosive mode, but even that might not be enough given he heals based on damage.


For example, the more ninjas you have the more damage he does to you thus he heals. He can quite literally solo an entire team and at the least stall long enough for ten rounds with more life to win given his abundance of heals. He's that broken and again you do not want everyone having that. I do not use the previous term lightly either.

  • limiting his availability wont fix the meta. Thats my point, meta stays the same no matter if you limit narutos availability now. Things should be done to change the meta rather then saying there is a meta but you don't get a choice on what side your on and instead are forced to get beaten with a * no matter what you do. So there never was just two options, stuff needs to be added that can counter naruto or naruto needs to be weakened.

The caveat is that if you "nerf" Six Paths now you're upsetting those who've already spent for him. They'll feel slighted, cheated, and the like. It's a no win situation. Weakening him might work, but you'd likely have to reduce his healing by such a significant amount it matters, remove his immunity to debuffs, scale his damage down, or something similar. I'd have included his evade, but that means little with the debuff immunity so that wouldn't do much if at all.

You are bad and should feel bad after that meme.

  • Let me say something here please.

    While I fully understand why those that can afford Naruto 6p and have been saving exclusively for him are salty, I think most of you are just focusing on the negative all the time.

    In one single week we have a new function, arena3v3, Fuku deals, Konoha's Tree, MGM, Wheel of Fortune, Ninja Assist "Rebate", Battle Armor Rebates and Sakura Festival.

    While this amazing week doesn't forgive their shortcomings and all the awful weeks behind us (and unfortunately ahead), I strongly believe that anyone that gives themselves the right to complain when they do something wrong has a responsibility to actually praise them when they do something right.

    So once again, while I do understand your saltiness and the need to berate Oasis, you should also include praise in your comments.

    Myself personally as a realist am here foremost to say a big THANK YOU OASIS, and to hope that you make a tradition of weeks such as this, with the exception of the mess up with 6p Naruto.

If you want me to praise them I will. I'll praise them for putting the brakes on Six Paths before it went even more out of hand. So Oasis is in a position where they can adjust him for balance purposes, limit his availability, or both. They were right to act when they did, though whether they follow through on either of what I've mentioned remains to be seen.

The highlight of this event cycle was going to be me getting Edo Itachi. Instead, some brainchild in their infinite wisdom thought it would be a good idea to put him on the Wheel and make him RNG dependent. I'm not spending a thousand coupons and potentially not even getting one frag of his. I'm going to pass on this event cycle and disappointed.
