Disappear in a puff of leaves and speed off to the rescue with the new Ninja Leaves travel power!
Similar to the Ninja Vanish power, this power triggers stealth as you activate it. Where Ninja Vanish lets you run with moderate super speed, though, Ninja Leaves lets you fly while stealthed, working like teleportation powers.
This new travel power is available now for just 525 ZEN. Get yours today!

Works like the normal TP... your character is pseudo invisible during the phasing (and the phasing looks brown like the store screenshot).
Overall, I really recommend this TP if it fits any of your characters.
Edit: Actually I do have 1 small gripe with this power. During the phasing the "teleport whooooooooosh" sound I think it would be better if it was gone, and just leave the "leaves" sound. Besides that I love everything else done in here, thumbs up to Splosions.

BUCKAWK. Poof.
EDIT : Okay, this login thing is getting annoying. I log in one, and it puts me to one that I don't even use...
A direct teleport reskin unlike ninja vanish. But, alas, like ninja vanish you don't get a 'sneak' so no high damaging SS for you!(Even if it did the teleport debuff won't allow you to attack anyway)
Now time for the issues! Unlike teleport, it has issues with repeated use. The only way I can describe it is that with teleport you only need to pull up a little to negate the moveforward issue but with Ninja Leaves you must pull up hard(staring almost directly upwards). To easily test what I am talking about, obtain teleport and Ninja leaves then use rmb to stare directly at your feet then use the two powers and slowly use Keystroke "w" to move forward while rmb to pull up and compare how high you must drag the mouse to yield an upwards return.
Edit: Wait wait wait wait wait.......certain trees can be pushed with such a great force...Think of tornado flight except triple, no, quadruple the effect...AND other people can see the trees you mess with...So...Yea it pretty much is worth it just to **** with the trees
How'd we notice that?

Am I to understand that, from that, that Ninja Vanish run speed got buffed?

Thank you for releasing something truly desirable in the Z-Store rather than locking it behind grab bags or lockboxes!
Y'know, I've only seen ninja leaves in Dead or Alive 2 as win animations for Ryu Hayabusa and the redhead ninja lady. Where did ninja-leaf-teleporting even come from?
I'll do some beer and sports surveys for it.
Where-o-where is mah Plant Based Powerset?!?!?!
Come on, devs! The support tree needs a 4th AT!!
I'd still like to see a tech based teleport, then I think the teleport variants would be fully rounded out.

Super Jump is possibly the most awesome and also least useful of all the TPs. I get a kick out of jumping around town and the desert but get in amongst some trees and it loses some effectiveness, get in a building and it's pretty much useless. My mystically powered might toon used it until level 35 at which point I was really glad to get heroic flight.

Oh well, at least it works for nature-themed characters too. Kudos for for making it versatile.
Request:
Would you be so kind as to generate a video of new travel powers displaying their appearance and usage in-game, preferably with portions showing the perspective of the user and then the perspective of an observer? I suspect it would increase the (initial) sales volume if y'all pushed a web-accessible video at the same time you pushed the travel power to the live servers.
There is no such thing as a free lunch. If you aren't paying for it, you aren't the customer; you are the product being sold.
Dollar, dollar, bill, yo. Cash rules everything around you and me.
Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but have we given up on patch notes in the launcher or did I just not notice them?
Also, can we get a little content that doesn't cost zen?
And maybe.. some bug fixes?
Unless these are being ninja-ed into the game, I haven't seen any bug fixes in a long while besides the hot-tub fix. The big and "obvious" bugs are still persistent.
Any ETA of the "bug patrol" to get those squashed?
Thanks.

I also hope they put some new powers in as well, like water...does anyone agree with that?
Now all we need is the ultimate ninja costume pack.
EDIT:
Wow, that gust of wind on the power activation is strong. I activated the TP while standing next to trees and bushes and damn near blew them sideways.
PVP is starving without rewards
1. Please give us Daily PVP missions that reward Questionite.
2. Please give us an exchange rate between Acclaim and Recognition so that PVP has access to all "On Alert" PVE rewards.
I was wearing this with my vigilante toon, mixed with the 90's plated mask. Still works on his main costume, but when I go the tailor it refuses to work it together.
Way to go, Cryptic. Thanks for 'fixing' something again and ruining it. I absolutely fail to see what problems this 'bug' was causing. 'Here's the Legos... NO YOU ARE BUILDING IT WRONG!'
Any word yet on the costume pieces only unlocking for one character?
What about the Superconductor chest for females?
The Cyberpunk mouth accessory for females in metal only?
Warlord bracer canceling out chest wear?
The jagged lines on the Retro Future armor?
I didn't think so. Thanks for 'improving' the game.
"You're welcome sunshine!"
Snark never dies.
moving forward, makes you dive down as if you are on Ice Slide but not maintaining height with spacebar...
It also seems to last alot less than normal teleport but that could be just my perception.
Other than that, it looks like an epic plant attack when activating..
Almost like PETAL PUNCH!

That Reminds me, Cross posting from the bugs forum topic so that it's more likely to get attention:
After messing around with it for a few seconds, it's very apparent what's wrong with the travel power.
For some reason, its forward movement is angled downward at about a 45 degree angle by default. You can see this easily if you just activate it and use space to fly straight up, then move forward (not angling your view up or down at all, just at a flat horizontal level). Left, right, and backward movement are unaffected and work just fine.
Snark never dies.
does this leaf power make you travel any faster?
the way both powers are descbibed makes one think they will be just like teleport but different animation so it is such a disappointing punch in the crotch when you realize you've purchased a power that by definition was supposed to make you travel faster but instead has made you the equivelent of a fat kid at 100 meter dash. by the time you get your feet off the block, everyone else has passed the finish line. seriously why is it so slow? and is leave any faster?

It's a good idea, and one that we did on Jade Dynasty (one of my other games) -- and yeah, it did boost sales somewhat. Unfortunately, as with many other possible projects, this probably won't happen because of the time it would take.
These took my product manager on JD about half a day to make about a 30-second video with the threshold of quality, and he had it down to a science. Anything yours traily would do would take twice as long and come off looking amateurish, I'm afraid.
Where were the release notes in the launcher in the past? Did they used to go in the feed in the upper-left? I hadn't thought of having those there, I'll chew it over. That is pretty prime real estate, but for some fixes it might be worthwhile.
Thanks, I'll pass this on to the dev team. Can you give me any details on which costume pieces are only unlocking per character?
Thanks, I'll pass this on.
a hell load faster, not to mention looks awesome, defo going on my Winter Fairy as a nature spell

Untrue. TT is going to need accurate information if he's going to be able to help...
There we go. As far as I know, these are the only pieces not unlocking account wide...

Actually, the lemurian loincloth and tail recognition pieces unlocked account wide for me, don't know about the other pieces though, but for costume bugs in the recognition system, can we please get Demon,Lemurian gloves, and superconductor pieces fixed.
Consolidate currency!
Munitions additions

Why not to do surveys and free offers
Though if you made a character after buying pieces, they MAY unlock for that one.

And the Fire Demon pieces, I think.

Good to know ty TT
It seems odd also when moving forward and up it seems very slow and when you phase out and flying down..wow just wow...slow fall just goes AWOL, the pic shows up for .5 sec then dissapears and you fall like a stone.

This power in combat situations cancels out block mechanic, as it applies seems to apply a hidden Crippling Challenge to self, animation will still play in some cases but no block benefit is given.
Being influenced by TWO AoRP from any two healers will cause you to lose the ability to block.
You still play the animation but you cannot block any attack. This bug sadly occured on my Gravitar team and she wiped us out very quickly because no one could block, compliments of my AoRP.
Since the emergence of this bug, I promptly stopped playing my Mind AT and months later I am now LTS.
I'd like to see this issue passed on to the Devs as well please.

PS: Mr TT, these videos are done with a demo version of Fraps, at the standard quality, without using any of the game possibilities that you devs have (understand: I still have to cash up the Zen or Questionite, etc.), despite all that, I usually manage to give the community a valid, yet amateurish preview of what the TP looks like, usually within 24 hours of it being released. All of that takes me 20 minutes...
Please don't tell me the team can't afford a pro version of Fraps and the one hour tops it would require to generate a satisfying level of quality for a preview.
As for Ninja Leaves (yes, the ninja certainly does leave, doesn't she?), my only remaining question is, does the Flight aspect eventually fade away, like Teleport, leaving you both visible and falling? Or does it continue until canceled?
- David Brin, "Those Eyes"

It's a teleport reskin.
iow, auto-leaves (pun intended) the flight, with or without slow-fall (depends on the game's mood) and visible.
Disassembly Line and FoxBat VS Fiend.
You can do everything for Disassembly Line and it won't finish.
With the Foxbat one, you can get him alive through everything and he STILL dies somehow....
I truly despise doing missions more than once and STILL not being able to have them register as finished.
Something needs to be done about that.

There is a whole "bugs" subforum full of threads about topics like costume piece unlock problems, clipping issues, etc etc etc. If you're -sincere- about saying you'll pass things on, perhaps you should look around that part of the boards & collate the most popular items for 'passing on' to people who can fix them. Keep up the Public Relations Work! :biggrin:
In addition to this I find that the forward motion is a bit odd, unlike teleport it holds you flying foward at a 45 degree downwards angle. And the phase in for smaller chars is great.
