       Pure Element User (All Attributes and Ninjutsus focused on a single Element). Now I hope you already have an Element in mind to focus on at this point. This section will help you decide which Element Ninjutsu (Not Element Attribute) is best to combine with with your primary element.

Free User - can only choose up to 2 element ninjutsus.
Premium User - can choose up to 3 element ninjutsus. Ninja Emblem required.

Please Note:
       The combinations below are just for introductory purposes only and may not be accurate for Token and Ninja Emblem users. Combinations below are recommended for beginners to understand the element combinations with less or no Tokens to use.
       For Token and Ninja Emblem Users refer to this link.

       The link above is also recommended for beginners to refer on. Tip: tokens are still possible to earn even for Free Users (Non Ninja Emblem Users).

Pure Wind User (Dodger) plus:

     - Fire Ninjutsus - Compensates the low damage output of your dodger with very high and stable damaging ninjutsus but doesn't have any status effects other than Burn.

     - Thunder Ninjutsus - Also compensates the low damage output of your dodger with high damage and critical chances but solely relies on luck. Plus Stuns and Debuffs.

     - Water Ninjutsus - You will still deal low damages but your survivability will greatly increase because of your dodge and healing ninjutsus. Plus Stun and Debuff.

     - Earth Ninjutsus - Dodging and Protection doesn't really go well but you may still use it for it's token ninjutsus if you really want.


Pure Fire User (High Damager) plus:

     - Wind Ninjutsus - Casting Bleeding will help you get more damage bonuses with your fire ninjutsus. Dodge ninjutsu is good for disrupting combos if you're lucky. Makes you less vulnerable.

     - Thunder Ninjutsus - More high damaging ninjutsus or simply pure offense. Also has stuns and debuffs but it would still make you vulnerable. 

     - Water Ninjutsus - Heal, stun and debuff ninjutsus will help your damager stay longer and dish out more fire ninjutsus. Higher survivability. 

     - Earth Ninjutsus - More damage but if you want more damage then go for thunder ninjutsus instead plus it has stuns too. The protection from earth ninjutsus will not really help you a lot. 


Pure Thunder User (Critical Damager) plus:

     - Wind Ninjutsus - Casting Bleeding will help you get more damage bonuses with your thunder ninjutsus but using wind ninjutsus will weaken you critical damages. Dodge ninjutsu is good for disrupting combos if you're lucky. Makes you less vulnerable.

     - Fire Ninjutsus - This will greatly maximize your criticals because fire ninjutsus have very high damage outputs. Also has stuns and debuffs but it would still make you very vulnerable.

     - Water Ninjutsus - Heal, stun and debuff ninjutsus will help your damager stay longer but it will also weaken your critical damages. Higher survivability and chances to do criticals on healing ninjutsus.

     - Earth Ninjutsus - It will somewhat weaken your critical damages but it will let you perform Stun-lock combos because you have a wide selection of stun ninjutsus. Plus Protection Buff.


Pure Water User (Healer and Spammer) plus:

     - Wind Ninjutsus - If you want to spam ninjutsus then wind ninjutsus is good because of it's fast cool down and low CP consumption. Dodge ninjutsu is good for disrupting combos if you're lucky.

     - Fire Ninjutsus - Compensates the low damage output of your healer with very high and stable damaging ninjutsus but doesn't have any status effects other than Burn.

     - Thunder Ninjutsus - Also compensates the low damage output of your healer with high damage and critical chances but solely relies on luck. Has stuns, debuffs and ninjutsu that will give you a chance to do a critical healing.

     - Earth Ninjutsus - Healing and Protection sounds good but keep in mind that all attributes are focused on Water Element so it is not a good combination. Better go for Wind ninjutsus if you want Defense. 


Pure Earth User (Tanker) plus:

     - Wind Ninjutsus - Not really good because the point is, you take damage to return damage and not to dodge. If you want Pure Defense then you may use Dodge but Water Ninjutsus are better.

     - Fire Ninjutsus - Adds high damage to your tanker with very high and stable damaging ninjutsus but doesn't have any status effects other than Burn.

     - Thunder Ninjutsus - Adds high damage and critical chances to your tanker. A good combination for Stun-lock combos because you have a wide selection of stun ninjutsus. Plus Debuffs.

     - Water Ninjutsus - This will make you a real tanker because of your high pool of HP and Healing ninjutsus. Good but it will weaken you damage output. Plus Stun and Debuff.

       Keep in mind that you still have Taijutsus and Genjutsus to add to your Set of Ninjutsus and Item Scrolls for Healing and CP regeneration. Good Luck!
