The Scientific Ninja Tool Ring of Spitfire derives from a confrontation that Boruto Uzumaki has withinthe show’s Ao arc. The tool offers you a way to deal a burst of damage at long range, and its effectiveness on any class type is so high it could be considered an additional jutsu. It’s an easy-to-use projectile that can be slotted into your builds to do a lot of damage:Hitting an enemy with every bullet is very effective if you may pull it off.The Ninja Tool also provides plenty of time for you and your teammates to take advantage of the stagger that each hit from the minigun creates. Here’s how to use it effectively and how it fits into different types of builds.
An Introduction To The Ring Of Spitfire
Ring of Spitfire, on activation, allows you to pull out a four-barreled minigun that continues to rapid fire flame bombs for five seconds. If you start shooting while in the air, you will remain in the spot you started firing in.You are able to adjust your aim slowly while you are shooting, but you can’t move. Cancel your fire by jumping, using chakra jump, or pressing the attack button.
Ring of Spitfire contains one stock of ammunition and reloads every ten seconds. If blocked at long range, enemies will have a chance to get out of the rain of bullets if you don’t readjust your aim correctly. The Ninja Tool is compatible with every game mode and every class or role in the game.
You can run builds that allow you to stun the enemy or take away their substitution jutsu,resulting in a better chance to land every bullet.Defending objectives works out well because the weapon can be used at a long range, hit multiple opponents, and put into combos easily. The Ring of Spitfire may work best and easiest with a Defense Type and a Ranged Type character.
Run Crystal Ice Mirror Clone Jutsu on your builds with Ring of Spitfire for an extra chance to stun your enemies.

Attack Type Ring Of Spitfire Builds
Attack Types receive a significant increase in the damage they can deal at long range by using this Scientific Ninja Tool.The tool is perhaps easier to use than every other long range Attack Type jutsu.The Lightning Style Chakara Mode Secret Technique prevents the player from flinching while firing it, andUniversal Pull easily brings a target into closer range or lets you combo right into the Ninja Tool.
Pairing projectile-based jutsu with this Scientific Ninja Tool can help track down targets or pile on the pressure in Base Battle. Vanishing Rasengan, Sage Art: Wind Style Rasen Shuriken, and Wood Style: Wood Dragon Jutsu are good options to pair with it.Wood Style: Laughing Budda Jutsu and Summoning: Great Snake are also great for creating a long range build.
Fire Style: Flaming Meteorscombined with Wood Style: Laughing Buddha Jutsu or Vanishing Rasengan makes for a good hit-and-run build that helps set up combos with the minigun.
You can buff your character with Flying Raijin Jutsu and Sharingan before using Ring of Spitfire.Flying Raijin increases your close-range attack power, but more importantly, it also increases your defense after placing your kunai. Sharingan can be activated while you are firing, so if you are hit, you will teleport behind the opponent and will take no damage.
An Attack Type hitting another enemy from long range can be advantageous too. You have an easy answer in a close ranged fight, if your target uses a substitution jutsu to escape from your bullets.Sharingan paired with Ring of Spitfire provides Attack Types the safest option to render themselves largely invulnerable while shooting in thisintense anime-inspired battler.
Ranged Type Ring Of Spitfire Builds
Ranged Types have the advantage of access to plenty of jutsu that will pair well with the minigun’s range.You can stun enemies with Lightning Shuriken Net, Shikigami Shield, Ice Style: Icicle Swallow, Hidden Jutsu: A Thousand Needls of Death, and Firestyle: Hiding in Ash Jutsu.
Jutsu and weapons that slowly launch projectiles that home in on the target can be paired with Ring of Spitfire to put huge pressure on a low mobility foe. The Utakata’s Bubble Pipe can send homing bubbles from a distance, and the jutsu C2 Dragon, Detonating Clay: Twin Birds, Wind Scythe Jutsu, and Shurado can all provide homing shots too.
Angelic Advent refills your Ninja Tool stock, so you can get back a stock of Ring of Spitfire instantly from popping this jutsu.Hitting your bullets from above an opponent is useful anyway, so gaining the height from using Angelic Advent still pairs well. Super Beast Scroll (Lion) can decrease your target’s movement speed for 8 seconds, which will make it easier to land your Scientific Ninja Tool’s bullets.
Buff your character before firing your minigun with Chikushodo to go invisible and increase your attack, or use Kamui Bond to increase your attack power, movement speed, and ninjutsu cooldown reduction.
Kamui Bond can still be activated while you are shooting, but the nullification ability won’t work since you are technically attacking.
If you want to shoot as much as possible while playing Ranged, equip Kamui Bond with Angelic Advent, so you can reduce your cooldown reduction even further. After getting buffed by Kamui Bond, charge up Angelic Advent. By so doing, Angel Advent can more quickly reload your Scientific Ninja Tool

Defense Type Ring of Spitfire Builds
Defense Types can further improve their Base Battle potential with the Ring of Spitfire, or they can diversify their build with the added utility of having a long range projectile. Defense Types' flexibility and sustainability in close-range combat can make hitting with the minigun much easier.
Jutsu like Earth Style: Earth Dragon Bullet, Sand Shower, Water Style: Shark Bomb, and Summoning: Frog can easily flood targets with a barrage of projectiles when paired with Ring of Spitfire.This can quickly disrupt the opponent’s strategy in Base Battle or Flag Battle.If you stun enemies with Water Prison Jutsu, Wood Style: Silent Strangle Jutsu, or Lightning Style: Thunderclap Arrow, your devastating shots will, again, be far easier to land.
Take no damage while firing your minigun by using Susano’o Armor and/or Sukunahikona. Running both jutsu so you’re at no risk while firing your minigun is one of your safest options, and both can be activated while firing.You can use the additional input of Sukunahikona to generate black rods at the target’s location and combo them with your bullets.
You can also buff your character before using the minigun with the jutsu Uchiha Flame Formation, Gentle Fist Technique: Body Blow, or Flying Raijin: Guiding Thunder to increase your defense.Kamui Climax will increase your attack power and Chakara Jump power, but you won’t be able to nullify attacks while you are shooting. Area denial, all in all, is very useful for a defensive character, and raw damage even more so.
Healer Type Ring of Spitfire Builds
Healer Types benefit from the element of surprise with this Scientific Ninja Tool.The drawback is they have to rely on keeping themselves and/or their team alive with only their jutsus and secret technique.Base Battles and Flag Battles are easier game modes for Healers to use this weapon in, but a Cellular Extraction with Six Paths Chakra: Rebirth or Mind Transmission Palm Sage Jutsu can pick up the healing slack.
Healer Types have plenty of techniques that can stun or give you buffs before you follow up with your minigun.You can stun opponents with Paralysis Jutsu, Heavy Boulder Jutsu, Cherry Blossom Crash, Shadow Possession Jutsu, Crimson Drizzle, Heavenly Foot of Pain, and Sage: Art: Shadow Style: Thunder Blast.
Heavy Bolder Jutsu, Cherry Blossom Crash, Heavenly Foot of Pain, and Crimson Drizzle all buff you after usage.
An advantage to Healers using Ring of Spitfire is the shield they get from firing inside Water Pillar.You just have to worry about a target using a breaker or Universal Pull. Strength of a Hundred: Hard Light is a jutsu that can also be used to maintain your position and recover health. Summoning: Slug also pairs well with Ring of Spitfire, as it lowers the defense of targets in range.
Besides losing a potential Healing Seal-Type 2 in your Ninja Tool slot, another drawback to using Ring of Spitfire as a Healer is how vulnerable being stationary leaves you. It will be best to be cautious using your minigun if multiple targets are chasing you around the mapin frantic battles.
