I am trying to get Ninja to work for me but I'm having problems. I don't seem to be able to get them beyond level three. I have followed the advice of contributors and this is what I do:
Start them off assassinating emissaries, then move onto ronin level 0 generals. I then target clan level 0 generals. I have managed to assassinate one level one general. beyond that I'm having no success at all. I understand that a 50% or below chance the ninja will fail. I try to go for odds of around 76% or above but the targets get fewer and fewer and I find myself targeting level 0 generals, which is tactically a waste of time, which usually end up being 50% successful.
Can anyone offer any advice as to how I can improve my level 2/3 Ninjas and start getting successful results on the real targets, namely the higher level generals, heirs and Diamyo? I have even in frustration tried to hit these but usually it is a 34% chance or below even with a level 3 ninja, which if attempted, is a 100% failure! It takes time to get a ninja up to level 3 and I don't want to waste them on pointless assassination attempts. I usually end up keeping them to protect by my Diamyo but Shinobi should be up to the task and they are cheaper!
I don't want to use Geisha because as contributors have rightly pointed out they don't really test your skills if they don't fail.
I would however, like to be in with a fighting chance!
Any advice would be helpful.
