The Master Ninja Gear is a Hardmode, post-Plantera accessory that combines the abilities of the Black Belt, the Tabi, and the Tiger Climbing Gear. It allows the player to cling to and slide down vertical walls, quickly dash short distances by double tapping the directional keys in the desired direction, and offers a 10% chance to automatically dodge enemy attacks. There is a one-second cooldown period between dashes.

Notes

  • The dash ability can be used to instantly accelerate to sprinting speed when combined with Hermes Boots or other Sprinting accessories.
  • Neither the effect nor its invulnerability time can stack with Black Belt.
  • If any Sprinting accessories are equipped and dyed, most of the particles which appear during a dash will take on the color of the dye.
  • A cloud of smoke will appear around the player upon a successful dodge. If the Cross Necklace or Star Veil is equipped when this happens, the extended invincibility provided by those items stacks with the Master Ninja Gear, providing a total of 2 seconds of invincibility.
  • If a player is wearing the Paladin's Shield, incoming damage from teammates can still be dodged.
  • The dash distance is about twice as far as Shield of Cthulhu, however the Master Ninja Gear does not impact other enemies, applying damage.
  • In the Nintendo 3DSNintendo 3DS version version, shifting the circle pad twice in the preferred direction works as it would on any other version, but as this can be tedious and/or tiring, it is possible, as long as a Grappling Hook is in the player's inventory, to press A while moving the circle pad from its center position to perform a dash. Take note, however, that this will also fire the Grappling Hook in question.
  • Dodging an attack does not cancel the debuff inflicted by such attack, this may be a bug.

Tips

  • Players may have a difficult time with construction while having this item equipped. Small movements when walling or building can activate the dash and cause misplaced tiles/blocks.
  • It may be difficult to dash on the Mobile version Mobile version due to its movement controls.
  • Just like the Black Belt, it is quite effective to dodge Bosses with projectiles and or high speed, such as Duke Fishron if used properly.
  • If you wish to have the same effect as the shield of Cthulhu, use the Unicorn mount directly after dashing, effectively having the same effect with a longer dash.

Trivia

  • As the name suggests, this accessory gives the player abilities similar to what mythical legends of ninja were capable of accomplishing - they were trained in climbing over walls, could sprint extremely fast, and could dodge enemies with the use of illusional decoys which enemies often attacked instead of the ninja.

History

  • Desktop 1.3.0.1: Dashing is now longer, but it requires more time to recharge.
