Not a lot of people know what is going to happend with shops. Its your choice to either get them now or later. I am buying hidan and kakuzu right now but saving my survival points.

I suggest getting them because of the impending doom coming ahead, which is known as the ... NINJA PAGE

May i know what is this "ninja page"?

This may be months away but .. it is a page that replaces fragments in shops..
You will need to have the Ninja's released first in order to get access to the newer ones, and special variations.

Like you have to get hidan before you can get infinite Hidan..
Kazuzu before his other form.

It also locks you out of be able to get other ninja's through shop means.
untill you get the old ones.
They may not implement this.. but I believe they will.

Something that we won't be getting anytime soon.

only the cn sever has it and that was after 2 years as for the shop some ninjas will get cheaper

then wouldnt it just be better saving ur points then instead of wasting them if they are gnna get half-priced anyway lol

Well here's the thing: We don't know exactly when we will get said update. We likely won't see it for a while, and luckily our friend Daiske made that clear, which makes sense since a system like that would require a large amount of content to already be out. It would be pointless to have that system with what we have currently because it would be half of a system and some of the ninja they have in said update would be permanently locked behind walls that need some future ninja first.

As far as saving goes, I would say it wise to just wait out the update for now because you never know who will come in future updates to shop and who will become cheaper. I think its safe to assume that in our first one we will likely keep all that we have now and some will become cheaper. Personally, I'm saving all of my coins for the update just to see and intend to go wild with them as soon as it is released. Of course it's a bit of a gamble because if we do lose anyone I might miss out a little but, then again, this whole game is a bit of a gamble when it comes to ninja. :p

If you are paranoid you c*ways save 16k points then start spending the extra. It doesnt take that long to save that much.

it would be useful to get tobi. really helped me get through survival and sage, since he does revive automatically (although it's only once per battle)

Farm them frags while you still have time.
