The Yin Co. Shadow Ninja is a cloaking device that allows a ship to turn invisible for a brief period of time. It cannot be purchased from space stations, but must be constructed from a blueprint.
In-Game Description
A very efficient stealth generator that is believed to be custom built. Should this device make it into mass-production, space will become a very empty place.
Characteristics
For five energy cells, a ship can turn invisible with the Yin Co. Shadow Ninja in 3.5 seconds and remain so for 40 seconds. While invisible, no other pilots are able to track your ship, therefore stopping all fire towards you. Interestingly, though, enemies still cannot track you despite being able to see the projectiles and muzzle flashes coming from your ship's cannons.
Though the Shadow Ninja consumes the most energy cells and isn't the most efficient, its loading speed and extended concealment justifies that. Many pilots find the 40-second cloak time very appealing, helping out the most in mining asteroids, hacking containers, and retrieving cargo in very hostile spaces. A pilot can leave many firefights with little or no damage at all with this cloak. This cloaking device is in a different league to that of the Vossk U'tool or the Terran built Sight Suppressor II due to the protection it offers, as both require a constant stream of energy cells fed to them.
In the earlier versions of GoF2, there is a bug in which whenever one activates this cloak on a VoidX, the ship gets an orange-ish tinge.
Blueprint
The blueprint can be obtained from Mutkin Kobus in the K'ontrr system, at the E'kkide station for $39,999, and requires the following:
- 40t Noble Gas
- 15t Chemicals
- 20t Hydraulics
- 40t Optics
- 10t Microchips
- 40t Radioactive Goods
Galaxy on Fire 2 HD (Android)
- 100t Noble Gas
- 80t Chemicals
- 80t Hydraulics
- 100t Optics
- 80t Microchips
- 125t Radioactive Goods
This costs 361,176$ to autocomplete.
Trivia
- In the 1994 film, The Shadow, Yin Co is the alias used by Lamon Cranston before he becomes the Shadow. The name is likely an intentional reference to this.
- In the news feed, sometimes it will mention Dr. Kobus Mutkin and his new stealth generator, which refers to the NPC that sells it to the player and this item respectively.
- Kobus Mutkin himself planned to put this item into mass-production.
