Self Destruct

[Shadowguy]

To all the Ninja Gurus out there...
I am just curious about if a ninja is in a party, and after he self destruct, where does he go to? Can he rejoin the party in anyway? I know the exp are not lost... how about the items dropped by the monsters after the party's battle?:confused:

After the ninja blows up, he either stays there until he gets revived or manually goes back to his homepoint. The outcome of self-destructing is the exact same as dying except the only twist is that you don't lose EXP. Everything else including being revived or going back to HP is handled in the same fashion. Just because you die/self-destruct doesn't mean you automatically get kicked out of the party either. You'll still be in the party but won't be able to do anything.

Items dropped by the monster are placed in a pool where people can lot for it (unless the leader changes from lotting to him getting all the items.) Therefore, the only disadvantage that comes with self-destructing in terms of item lotting is that you can't lot. However, if nobody else lots on the item or if everybody passes the item, it will go into your inventory automatically after a short period of time assuming your inventory has space and you haven't zoned out of the area.

How much damage does a self-destruct do anyway?

All the posts I've see just say that it does "major" damage. How much does it do compared to a high lvl weapon skill?

meh.... vivid's bomb does minimal damage.

[NEuMiLo]

see it as gettin out of losing xp at desperate times...

[Kaizoku]

But you don't gain anything really, do you now?

[Anom]

pfft... mebbe not, but consider gaining nothing to losing something.

Me 'tinks this would be appropriate in certain circumstances, jes?

Seems like a handy ability for a free trip to homepoint too.
Hmm sorry guys I have to log *boom* :sweat:

I am not 100%, but it is similar to machina and bomb series self-destruct, in that the damage is a multiple of remaining HP. I have done over 300 damage at full HP (500 or so HP). I will test this out some more and get back to you though,
