Specialization Information

Subject: Specialization Information 13th February 2014, 5:08 pm

One will notice how classes on the site seem to have limits on the max amount of techniques they can learn this is called their Jutsu Limit. Some ranks require one to maximize their Jutsu Limit before allowing one to qualify for things such as promotions. This is done by filling up the number of techniques one can learn at that current rank. However maxing out one's Jutsu Limit is not the end all in fact there are ways for shinobi characters to learn more techniques this is through Specializations.

Combat Specializations are only Available to Knights (Who get it from the start), Shinobi & Shogunate.

Combat Specializations

By undertaking a specialization the shinobi is able to add to their max jutsu limit. Depending on the level the number of techniques varies, likewise depending on the type of specialist the number of techniques may or may not be limited to a certain type.

*However the number of specializations a single character has is limited in addition depending on the rank of the character only a limit number can be picked but one has the option of waiting to choose said specializations as long as they want nor do they need to choose any specialization at all.

*Specializations can be repeated ONCE either per Week (Non-Technique Granting Specs) or per Month (Technique Granting Specs). Using this method one can gain bonus technique slots (Known as Specialization Slots) which can then be trained like normal techniques. As a result using this method a character can theoretically have an unlimited amount of techniques.

*Awakenings gives access to all your Specialization Slots regardless of Rank
* Secondary Awakenings & ANBU give 1 Additional Specialization Slot
* Elite Ranks (E. Genin, Chunin Instructor, E. T. Jonin, E. Jonin, Knight Templars, S-Class Hunter Nin, Kage) all retain the maximum amount of slots are their normal variant.
*Awakened Elite Ranks of S-rank Level gain access to their 5th Specialization Slot, however that last specialization slot does not benefit for the Halved Spec Training Bonus that they get as Elites, unlike their Z-rank or higher counterparts.

There are three levels of Specialization Training
Basic = 250 Words
Advanced = 500 Words
Perfect = 1000 Words

*Specializations don't need to be trained in order UNLESS your a Knight of Pandora. This is due to the fact that they do not have to Max out before being able to spec train due to it being part of their ranking up requirements.

*In Regards to this, training Advanced or Perfect allows one to learn either the Rank of technique that specific one is for OR a certain amount of lower-ranked techniques using this key:
D - 2 D Per 1 C, 3 D per 1 B or 4 D per 1 A
C - 2 C Per 1 B or 3 C per 1 A
B - 2 B Per 1 A

Note: Specializations only apply to techniques above the cap. Those within the cap can be anything you want. In addition Specializations are the only way to increase your Jutsu Limit beyond the Rank caps.

Non-Combat Specializations

In comparison to Combat Specializations these refer to those specializations which are useful outside of combat, providing a supportive role to classes, these are available to Faunus only for now.

Faunus and Tamers
Tamers as well as those Faunus who are aligned to a Tribe have the option to use their specialization slots for something other than combat, namely their bonds with animals. This refers to their networking, or rather their ability to get along with certain species of animals and creatures and eventually tame them.

Faunus Specific:

Tamer Specific:

*Note:
-The Specialization effects are as follows:
1. Type of Creature such as Mammallian, Reptillian, Amphibian, Avian, Piscine and Insectoid (Allows for a 1/10 Chance to Tame creatures of that type to make into Pets)
2. Species of Creature, only available to Faunus and must match was species the Faunus is (Allows for a 1/5 Chance to Tame creatures of that species to make into Pets)
-Faunus can only tame Base Species Fauna.
-Tamers can tame either Base Species (Tamer), up to Sub-Species (Elite Tamer) or up to Rare-Species (Pro Tamer)
-Enlightened & Spurious can tame any type of Fauna as long as it is Aligned to their Tribe.
