[Razor] Ninjitsu Animal form macro/guide

[Ilsanor]

How do I raise Ninjitsu from 23? or "I get no gains on Ninjitsu. Help anyone?" I have seen this question asked a few times now so I decided to make a mini guide.
Simply recording the use of the spell Animal Form in Razor may not work for a given player, because the system needs to know which form (which animal) you want to use. In the gump you normally put a tick mark next to your selection. Razor does not do that, it just clicks done. Luckily, the system 'defaults' the rat form if no tick is placed but ONLY if you succeed at casting the right way at least once. If you fizzle, it does not seem to go to default. So basically, for any AF macro to work you will need to cast the spell by hand until you succeed at least once (frustrating, since the success chance @23 skill is only 10,5%). After that you can fire away the macro and go to sleep. A server restart wipes the 'default' form, so you will need to re cast it manually again.The whole problem disappears at skill 45 (or 35+Hanzo) when you can cast Mirror Image which works without any problems. Follow the wiki table from that point onwards.

Here's a small macro to help you with AF. The pause times WILL need to be adjusted to work with your FC/FCR. I believe values of 4s and 3s, respectively, should work if you have no FC/FCR, though I strongly suggest getting the gear for it - it will speed up any training by a great deal.

How do you put this into Razor as it does not want to run on mine?


I Figured it out. You have to open notepad and add it there

[Ilsanor]

Exactly. You have to create a new .macro file in the Razor\Macros directory, edit with text editor of choice and paste the code in. Save the file and re-start Razor (UO) after that. I can't give the exact path to the Razor directory as it varies on different systems - it's in the application data or equivalent. Do a search for directory "Razor" and you should find it without any problems.

I found the best way to level ninjitsu, if you have high stealth/hiding, is to use surprise attack. Find a good spot (like a corner) that you can run and hide while attacking a mob, stealth back to said mob, surprise attack it. Rinse and repeat. I just used the same mob and got it up high enough to where I could cast other spells to gain.

The macros folder for razor is in the users folder. For windows 8 it would be: C:\Users\YourNameHere\AppData\Roaming\Razor\Macros
