Hardcore Skittlez Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 (edited) Samurai Kenjutsu | Samurai Sabre Technique Effect: This skill allows for the purchase of techniques with the [Hijutsu; Samurai Kenjutsu] descriptor. When performing Weapon Attacks, Weapon Techniques, or techniques with the 'Hijutsu; Samurai Kenjutsu' descriptor, a character with this skill may increase the base cost of that attack by an additional 'x' Chakra to increase the damage of the attack by 1(.25y)x, wherein y is equal to the current rank of this skill. The value of 'x' may never exceed half of the Ninjutsu damage cap relevant to this character's current rank. Description: A trait unique to the samurai clans of the Land of Iron, Samurai Kenjutsu is a basic but evolved style of kenjutsu developed to allow the Samurai a continued level of competitiveness with the ever-growing shinobi world. This style of swordplay involves utilizing one’s chakra to encompass their sword in a sharp but flexible aura, allowing the user to extend their reach or even alter the shape of their strike. Though a very similar technique exists within the shinobi world, the Samurai have gained mastery over its simplicity and are able to use their chakra as though it were a literal extension of their body. Requirements: Character Backstory detailing a character's training as a Samurai; May be learned by non-Samurai from a character with this skill with a 10 post training Ranks: 2 | The second rank requires Jōnin Rank or level 60. Cost: -2 Edited November 4, 2016 by Hardcore Skittlez
Hardcore Skittlez Posted October 23, 2016 Author Posted October 23, 2016 Designer's Notes Previous version found here. Resubmitting this to adjust the effect, as it suffered from the same problem that the old Juken did. I also tweaked the requirements a bit, as it felt incredibly restrictive to limit this to just Path of the Warrior when its' restrictions should be more RP-based.
wolfnin Posted November 3, 2016 Posted November 3, 2016 This should have some post training for teaching it to non-samurai. Also, I'm assuming the extra damage allows it to break the base damage cap correct?
Hardcore Skittlez Posted November 4, 2016 Author Posted November 4, 2016 Added a 10 post training to learn it from a character that knows it. It doesn't add base damage, so... I can't accurately answer that question. "Yes", maybe? This increases the base cost but just adds another modifier; it can, however, push the base cost over its cap.
Hardcore Skittlez Posted November 10, 2016 Author Posted November 10, 2016 wooOOOoOOoo, this is still here!
wolfnin Posted November 10, 2016 Posted November 10, 2016 I read this different, but I understand it now. This seems good to me. Approved.
