Shinobi Striker Ninja Tools List: Every Tool by Class

Ninja tools in Shinobi Striker are the thrown or placed items on your Ninja Tool button, and each class draws from its own list: Kunai, Smoke Bombs, Paralysis Seal Kunai and Paper Bomb Kunai for Attack, Senbon, Paralysis Seals and Demon Wind Shuriken for Ranged, Smoke Bombs, Paper Bombs and Blast Bombs for Defense, and Kunai, Healing Seals and Sealing Tags for Heal. On top of those sit scroll-only tools such as Weighted Seal and Raging God Medicine, plus Scientific Ninja Tools that most classes can share. The full list below covers what each one does, how many you carry and where it comes from, as of November 2026.

Our sources were the Shinobi Striker community wiki's ninja tool and controls pages, Bandai Namco's patch 2.70 notes on Steam from May 2026, the Esoteric Scrolls lineup announcements on Steam and the 14th developer letter on the official NARUTO site, all read in November 2026.

How Ninja Tools Work

The wiki treats ninja tools as one of the four ways to attack, next to regular attacks, ninjutsu and secret techniques. With default controls you throw or place your equipped tool with Circle on PlayStation, B on Xbox or Q on PC. Every tool has a stock (how many you can use in a row) and a recharge time per use, and most are locked to specific classes in the same way ninjutsu are.

Every new avatar starts with two tools per class, according to the wiki's created character page:

• Attack: Kunai and Paralysis Seal Kunai.
• Ranged: Senbon and Paralysis Seal.
• Defense: Smoke Bomb and Paper Bomb.
• Heal: Kunai and the Healing Seal, which became Healing Seal - Type 2 in patch 2.08.

More tools unlock as you level each class, and the rarer ones only come from scrolls. Two outfit skills affect tools directly: the wiki lists All Geared Up as a top skill that raises ninja tool damage by 10%, and Armed and Dangerous as a bottom skill that shortens ninja tool cooldowns. Our guide to changing clothes and outfits explains where you swap those pieces.

Attack and Heal Ninja Tools

Attack and Heal share several tools, so they are grouped here. Stock and recharge figures come from each tool's wiki page.

• Kunai (Attack, Heal): 4 stock, 3 seconds per kunai. Fast, low damage, no extra effect. The default spam tool.
• Smoke Bomb (Attack, Defense): 2 stock, 10 seconds each. Deals no damage but stops a target for 3 seconds and leaves a smoke screen. It does not work on players with Super Armor or a guard up.
• Paralysis Seal Kunai (Attack): 1 stock, 8 seconds. Flies straight and far, deals a little damage, paralyzes for about a second and cancels Super Armor.
• Paper Bomb Kunai (Attack, Heal): 1 stock, 8 seconds, from Esoteric or Moonlight Scrolls. Sticks to the target even through a guard, then explodes after 5 seconds for damage that cannot be guarded.
• Raging God Medicine (Attack, Ranged): 1 stock, 30-second cooldown, scroll-only. For 13 seconds it restores 10% health and raises attack, ninjutsu attack and damage against a guard.
• Healing Seal - Type 2 (Heal): 1 stock, 13-second recharge since patch 2.41. Thrown forward, it heals every ally in range, including you.
• Sealing Tag (Heal): 2 stock, 7 seconds. Seals the target's ninjutsu and slows them for roughly 10 seconds, and has cancelled Super Armor since version 2.27.
• Super Tough Medicine (Defense, Heal): 1 stock, 30-second cooldown, scroll-only. For 13 seconds it raises health by 10% and improves defense, recovery and ninjutsu cooldown.

Event versions also exist for these classes, such as the Springtime Smoke Bombs from Easter events, which the wiki says work like the normal Smoke Bomb with different colored smoke.

Ranged and Defense Ninja Tools

Ranged has the most varied list, and Defense leans toward traps and explosives.

• Senbon (Ranged): 3 stock, 5 seconds each. Thrown faster than Kunai with one fewer in stock, slightly weaker, and longer range. The wiki's description adds that they can deflect almost any other tool.
• Paralysis Seal (Ranged): 2 stock, 5 seconds. Placed on the ground; anyone who gets close is shocked and held for 2 seconds. Patch 2.38 increased its hit range.
• Demon Wind Shuriken (Ranged): 1 stock, 4 seconds, unlocked by leveling the Ranged class. Slow but tracking and multi-hit. The Rainbow version came from online events.
• Weighted Seal (Ranged, Defense): 3 stock, 13 seconds, scroll-only. A trap that slows the victim, cuts their evasion, tracking and Secret Technique gauge, and lengthens their cooldowns for 10 seconds. It breaks Super Armor.
• Sealing Tag: Fake (Ranged, Heal): an SS-rank trap from Esoteric or Moonlight Scrolls that stuns and reverses the victim's controls for 10 seconds. Patch 2.70 in May 2026 removed its Substitution stock reset, so older guides overstate it.
• Poisonous Smoke Bomb (Ranged, Defense): 1 stock, 10 seconds, scroll-only. Stops targets and poisons them for 10 seconds, and knocks several Super Armor techniques out of their armor.
• Paper Bomb (Defense): 3 stock, 5 seconds. A ground trap that explodes and knocks back an enemy who walks near it.
• Blast Bomb (Defense): 2 stock, 5 seconds. Thrown in a long arc and explodes on impact or after bouncing twice, for roughly 15% damage.

Scientific Ninja Tools and Quick Scrolls

Scientific Ninja Tools arrived in Season 2. The wiki describes them as the only universal tools in the game, with the exception of Crimson Star, which is Ranged only, and says almost all of them come only from scroll rotations. The single exception is Scientific Ninja Tool "Rasengan", earned by training with Naruto Uzumaki (BORUTO).

The wiki's tool list includes the five elemental Release Bullets (Wind, Fire, Lightning, Earth and Water), "Rasengan", "Purple Lightning", "Glimmering Flames", "Shadow Clone Jutsu", "Smoke Flash", "Cooling Breeze" and the Broken Scientific Ninja Tool. Be careful with the name, because many Scientific Ninja Tools are weapons instead, such as "Chakra Claw" and the SS+ "Inventive Destruction". Our guide to getting SS+ weapons covers that side.

Newer tool-slot items keep coming through the Esoteric Scrolls lineup. Quick Scroll "Four Flames Formation", added on 6 August 2026, is usable by all classes according to the wiki: it creates a barrier that traps enemies, damages anyone touching it and ends when the clone outside is defeated. The 29 October 2026 lineup included Uchiha Shuriken Jutsu: Infiltration Shadow, an item Bandai Namco's patch 2.70 notes list under weapon and ninja tool adjustments. Since these only come from appraisals, our guide on how to get Esoteric Scrolls is the place to start if one of them is your target.

Tools That Counter Super Armor and Burst

Super Armor lets a player keep attacking through hits, which is why several tools above mention it. If your team keeps losing to armored techniques, these are the counters the wiki and patch notes describe:

1. Paralysis Seal Kunai for Attack, which cancels Super Armor on hit.
2. Sealing Tag for Heal, which has cancelled it since 2.27 and also seals ninjutsu.
3. Weighted Seal for Ranged or Defense, which breaks it and drains the Secret Technique gauge.
4. Poisonous Smoke Bomb, which the wiki says pulls users out of armor from techniques such as Baryon Bullet Barrage and Demon Hunter.

Some secret techniques also shut tools off for the user. Naruto Uzumaki (Sage Mode)'s Tailed Beast State: Nine Tails blocks ninja tools and Substitution while active, whereas his Nature Energy: Concentration adds Shadow Clone follow-ups to your tools, so the same loadout can feel very different with him. Our Naruto Sage Mode guide explains the full kit.

The flip side matters too. A plain Smoke Bomb does nothing to a player with Super Armor or a guard up, so it is the wrong answer to those techniques even though it is a strong opener against an unprepared target.

Recent Ninja Tool Balance Changes

Patch 2.70, released with Season 10 on 28 May 2026, adjusted several tools in one pass:

• Smoke Bomb and Springtime Smoke Bomb: cooldown reduced.
• Sealing Tag: Fake: Substitution stock reset on hit removed.
• Scientific Ninja Tool "Water Release Bullet": the ninjutsu cooldown reset on hit was removed and replaced with an effect that disables ninjutsu on hit.
• Uchiha Shuriken Jutsu: Infiltration Shadow: adjusted the motion enemies take when hit.

The 14th developer letter added that balance changes now also happen during regular maintenance, about every two to four weeks, so recharge times and effects listed on older wiki pages may already be out of date. Check the latest Steam announcement before you build around a specific number.

Want Every Tool Without the Grind?

For PlayStation players, the store's [NARUTO SAGE MODE] Prestige 1 modded save lists All Ninja Weapons Unlocked and Infinite Ninja Tools, along with all clothes, accessories, jutsus, titles and DLCs. It starts at Prestige 1, Level 1 with zero stats and 5 million money, and its modded male and female outfits grant infinite ultimate, sub-weapon and jutsu. The infinite effects come from those modded clothing sets, not from anything the normal game offers. Its title still says "Early Access" from before Naruto (Sage Mode) became free for everyone in August.

It works on PS4 and PS5 only, not Xbox or PC, needs active PlayStation Plus on the account being modified, and the game is not included. Every other option is on the Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker store page.
