Ninja: blade and shuriken together, and horses for rent again

Two changes from your reports.

The Ninja fights with both hands

The Ninja is built to strike with a blade and follow up with a shuriken thrown point-blank. Until today, though, a blade alone hit almost as hard as a blade with shuriken: carrying shuriken added only about 20% damage, and many of you did not bother.

Now it is worth it:
- Blade and shuriken (shuriken in the Ammo slot): the Ninja hits 75% to 100% harder than with the blade alone. A fully equipped Ninja deals about the same damage as before, slightly more.
- Blade alone: each hit now counts for 75% of a full blow.
- From a distance nothing changes: only the shuriken flies, as before.

Keep a stack of shuriken in your Ammo slot: the Ninja master in Semura sells them.

Bram rents horses again

Bram the Stable Master also has two quests, at level 8 and level 30. Between the two he kept saying "come back at level 30" and never opened the stable. Now he talks about a quest only when you can take it or hand it in: the rest of the time, the royal steed for 500 gold an hour is there for you, even in the middle of the Great Gravhold Ride.
