Hardcore Skittlez Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 So... howcome this uses Rust, but is named Radiation Release? Either make Radiation Release its own element, or just make this the Rust Release bloodline.
Kouta Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 (edited) Seiton The initial Seiton skill needs to ditch the line about "Doesnt count toward the 10 rank limit for nin mastery" kind of stuff. We're slowly cutting it out of elemental bloodlines because its a bad mechanic. The only bloodline that still has it is Magnet Release, and there's currently a topic in staff about removing it there too. That being said, your initial skill prices out like so: - Tier Two Combo Element for Free: -1 (Saving 1 SP) - No Requirements on that Element: -1 (Saving 2 SP) - 2 for 1 Nin Mastery on that element: -.5 (Saving 4.5 SP) - Elemental Affinities Come from Special List: -.5 You can combine them however you wish, and price your skill accordingly but because Rust is a higher tiered element than other Release Bloodlines so far "Magnet, Wood, etc." it costs more to get it for free. I'd suggest doing the element by itself, and then breaking the Nin Mastery and Affinities off to their own Skill because your skill can't cost .5 SP --------------- Toxicologist As a poison focused bloodline, you are free to make a special rust based skill that mimics the path skill "Poison Creator Master" but you should not get the exact skill out of the path without taking the Advanced Path, and your skill definitely should not be better than the Path Skill. A way you can go, is have a skill that gives a similar (but not better) ability, and then say "If the user possesses the skill "Poison Creator Master" then it does blah better ratio thing." That way you can get the ability, and it gets better if you also choose the poison path. ----------------- Siegecraft First off, we need to get consistent about using "Hijutsu; Seiton" because the exact tags will need to match when you start using jutsu. "Their Hijutsu" doesn't mean anything in the system, and you could get a ruling that deactivates your skill mid-battle if the wording is wrong. Secondly, I'm okay with this ability, but how about we give it a bit of a "Corrosion" mechanic? Instead of just dealing a flat bonus damage, why not deal "Poison; x Damage" for y number of turns anytime it hits a construct directly to that construct, where x is some percentage of the jutsu's total damage designated by the rank of the skill? You can do a similar ability to items that grant additional Defense, reducing their bonuses to defensive by x amount per turn over y turns, all decided by the skill. That way you get the flavor of eating through their shields and armors. ------------- Vertigo You never designate what decides x. IS it just anytime they suffer Bleed, they'll also do some % chance to induced dizzy for x turns, where x matches how long they were bleeding? IF so, you need to cap dizzy by its duration cap, of course. IF x is supposed to reference the rank of the skill, then just change the y variable to also be x, and say xi s equal to the rank of the skill. --------------- Poisonous Secretions No changes. I'm game. Edited November 1, 2015 by Kouta
Hardcore Skittlez Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 The poison secretion is a copy paste of Tetsuwan Kero's Gastric Venom Secretion skill. I was not asked about copying this mechanic, nor am I okay with an exact replication existing. Please come up with something different for this skill.
tygerin Posted November 1, 2015 Author Posted November 1, 2015 Seiton- adjusted the price, removed the line Toxicology - removed path skill, edited effects Seigecraft - added term limits, the splash damage is working as intended, as well as that of the actual element effects removed vertigo
Kouta Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Toxicologist: Can be priced at -1. Vertigo: So the way the skill reads right now, this is how it functions. -- You suffer Bleed for 2 turns. -- At the end of the Bleed, everyone makes a single dodge roll with a 20y% chance to suffer Bleed for 2 turns. -- After that dodge roll, everything is copasetic. The ability doesn't do anything until... -- You suffer Bleed for 1 more turn. -- At the end of the Bleed, everyone makes a single dodge roll to dodge Dizzy. -- The ability goes back to doing nothing. Is that what you intend it to do?
tygerin Posted November 2, 2015 Author Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) No... For Vertigo The user contracts the effect bleed for two turns for those two turns, they must roll not to be dizzy On the third turn, they around no longer roll I made some adjustments to it. Edited November 2, 2015 by tygerin
Kouta Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) You should use this wording: "On any turn that the user suffers from "Bleeding", all combatants besides the user have a 20x% (x=the rank in this skill) chance to be inflicted with "Dizzy" for a duration equal to the duration of the user's "Bleeding" status. This cannot cause Dizzy to exceeds it natural turn duration." The wording that is causing the effect to play weird is "Once the ninja of this skill suffers from the effect ‘Bleed’," because that assumes we wait till bleed concludes.

tygerin Posted January 25, 2016 Author Posted January 25, 2016 a look... a touch... the feel of cotton...
Azure Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Vertigo: It would feel pretty cheap if this could be self inflicted and come into play. Or in the very least at a value of less than 20 bleed damage.
