Common Questions
Q: What are some of the new updates?
A: An announcement on Rebellion's updates can be found Here. However I'll still go over the changes that will affect member's and their creations.
- Rank & Skill Cap: As with the canon universe, Rebellion makes use of the Shinoni Organization system. This has stayed fairly the same, with our original site mechanics not really changing much. However, staff have decided to change how we implement the shinobi organization system and our systems, in a way that's more realistic to The canon Series. What this means is, that staff will be allocating letter grades and appointing shinobi ranks based on the information and prowess of your character profile. The jest of this update is to get a more realistic and true Naruto experience, while staying fair to other members. In the Canon Naruto, Shippuden and Boruto series, there's not ONE ninja that chose their own rank. Even Naruto, after saving the world needed to become jounin before he was able to become Hokage.
- Starter Ranks: The Starting ranks any member is allowed to go for without consulting staff or having restriction are, Academy Student, Genin, Chunin and Jounin. Staff have decided that these ranks are more important to the In-character Universe and overall Role Play experience. That said, we want to put more emphasis on these roles versus Village Leaders. It should be noted that this does not effect Rp positions, besides village leaders. As village leader positions must be gained In-Character.
Q. Wait what if I'm already approved?
A.
- Y'all Over Powered: For members who've been with us through thick and thin. We would like to first....thank you for your continued support then tell you that your approved characters need to be re-submitted. I know, I know... This seems like a whole lot of Bologna, but Staff, including myself have recently discovered applications that shouldn't have gotten approved. We again, dropped the ball on this and allowed for certain characters to do stuff above their skill level. For instance if your character build is a Strength type, then 9 times out of 10 he'll be slower. Before the revamp, we had profiles that were speedsters and tanks, which gave them no real weakness. Character's must have a weakness, if you are good with Ninjutsu and Taijutsu as a Duel Spec, you should be crap in Genjutsu and Bukijutsu.
- Shinobi Power Scale: Yes, there's a two part answer to this question. The reason why most profiles and jutsu have gotten out of hand is that members and including some staff were misinterpreting the Spec Systems. The letter grade of each Spec determines a character's skill within their Shinobi Ranking. For instance, a chunin with B rank in Ninjutsu would be one of the strongest ninjutsu users of Chunin Rank, versus having an skillset that is on par with Jounin, whose usually B rank in skill(because A rank is the highest known skill level In-character and are usually Kages). Another example could be, a jounin with D rank in Taijutsu. What this means is that this Jounin is one of the weakest in Taijutsu among Jounin rank, versus his Taijutsu being on par or as weak as a Genin.
Q. Have anything else changed?
A. Yes, there's a few other things that have also changed or well we'll be taking a different approach with.
- Jutsu: This is mostly for S rank Canon jutsu and S rank custom jutsu members would like to work towards. In the begining of Rebellion staff allowed members to nerf or weaken certain S rank canon jutsu to allow members to use jutsu and abilities that are they're favorites. This will still be allowed, however instead of nerfing these S rank jutsu, members will instead create weaker or incomplete versions of the S rank they are gunning for.
- Jutsu Power Scale: This isn't a "change" or update more so a topic that needs to be brought to the attention of members. The Jutsu Power Scale is in place for a reason. This reason is to allow members the chance to create almost anything within the realms of the series' logic and universal laws. This includes certain jutsu, abilities and even summonings and items other sites banned. Our take on jutsu is that almost anything is allowed so long as it falls within the Jutsu Power Scale. That said, All members including staff must abide by this Scale or nothing will be balanced. There's no exception to this rule and it applies to Canon jutsu as well. Anything that doesn't fit within the power scale will be denied. No exceptions
- Super Power Listing Wikia & Naruto Fanon: On NRB, anything and almost everything can be achieved through the use of Chakra. These abilities can be anything from spouting streams of energy from one's mouth to things like elemental manipulation(nature transformation), and everything in between. The possibilities for these "Jutsu" and "Abilities" are endless. SO... Staff encourage the use of Super Powers Wikia and Naruto Fanon sites as a reference for Members to chose their type of jutsu or what abilities their shinobi has. Make sure to only use the material found on these sites as inspiration and do not take anyone's property without permission. Get inspired to create your own bad ass ability.
