The Full Manual covers everything, so you should read it sooner or later. How To Play (Short Version) Congratulations - you are on your way to becoming the ultimate Ninja! (by Ninja, of course, we mean Ninja/Alchemist/Student/Detective/Robot Pilot/Grill Monkey, and more!) In BvS, you can become a legendary Sannin, lead a Village, blow up a Village, pilot a Robot, go on a date or two with anime's hottest characters, all of the above, and more! To do that, though, you'll have to overcome some crazy challenges and train to be the best. --Your Character-- Stamina The lifeblood of BvS is Stamina - it lets you do everything. You get a fixed amount per day, but can get more from bonuses, in-game items, and events. Missions and Quest Steps cost 10 Stamina, and all sorts of other things cost Stamina too. Season Number of times you've Looped (gotten to a high level and willingly Looped back to Genin). This unlocks higher-level content and perks. Rank How awesome you are. Ryo Money. Buy things. Bribe people. Gamble. Oh yeah. Gen/Nin/Tai There are your primary Stats. Each point is a chance at getting a Success during a Mission (or other) Attempt, Get enough AP in a stat, and it levels up! Chakra Used to fire off Jutsu. Jutsu XP XP used to, you guessed it, buy Jutsu (and other things). Allies Your buddies. Put them on your team. Stab people. It's awesome. Items Stuff you pick up on your travels. Bloodlines Innate abilities. You'll know what they do when you get them. Jutsu Boosts to your stats that cost Chakra. -- How Attempts Work -- Challenges have Success and Difficulty Levels. You need to get the number of Successes listed (or more) to pass. Each Level you have in a stat is a 1-10 roll when trying to beat a challenge. Range bonuses let you roll higher, Strength bonuses add to your rolls, Level bonuses give you extra rolls, Success bonuses are rolls that automatically, well, 'succeed'. Areas in BvS Missions Missions are where you level your stats, find Allies, get Items, and make Ryo. Your Rank and Quests completed help determine which types of Missions you can go on, and if you are high enough rank, you can narrow down which missions you get to focus on a certain stat, or hunt down an elusive Item. Quests These are special missions that advance the plot (and get you awesome stuffs). Teams Put Allies on your team to boost your stats and help you out. Jutsu Buy jutsu that are taught by your Allies. Party House Chat and gamble for fun and prizes. Villages Groups of Ninjas that work together. New players can wander into an open Village to help out. Otherwise, you can look through the Open Applications and send one. When you join one (and you really, really should!), be sure to help out every day, Collecting or Patrolling.
