The name is irrelevant, the focus is to have a Weapon based Martial Art to seek after.
Maybe you want to wield a Sword, Nunchaku, or Bo Staff and enhance their abilities with Ki.
Just tossing the idea in here and if you guys like it, I’ll put some time into numbers and such.
Noice. I got some ideas in the works. I’ll probably start theorycrafting on Thursday and run some numbers and ideas afterwards. Make Humans Great Again! We’re gonna get hats and shirts and coffee mugs!
I like this too, please share whatever you come up with! I did end up finding some old Kenjutsu martial art info in a backup, but it was just for the sword. I’d be interested to hear ideas for swords and other weapons.
Grants increased Sword damage and a Bleed chance.
– Only a Light Bleed may be applied with this Style.
Tier 1 = 1% Damage Increase + 2% Bleed Chance
Tier 2 = 2% Damage Increase + 4% Bleed Chance
Tier 3 = 3% Damage Increase + 6% Bleed Chance
Tier 4 = 4% Damage Increase + 8% Bleed Chance
Tier 5 = 5% Damage Increase + 10% Bleed Chance
Bojutsu - Staff Style
Grants increased Staff damage and Block chance.
– If used by a Human, each end is a weapon in respect to Dual Wielding.
Tier 1 = 1% Damage Increase + 2% Block Chance
Tier 2 = 2% Damage Increase + 4% Block Chance
Tier 3 = 3% Damage Increase + 6% Block Chance
Tier 4 = 4% Damage Increase + 8% Block Chance
Tier 5 = 5% Damage Increase + 10% Block Chance
CCKAPM - Capsule Corp Ki Amplification of Projectile Munitions
Requires Ki Amplifier and the Ki Amplifier Upgrade to work.
– Portions of your Ki are added to the damage of your Projectile Weapons.
— For defense purposes, your weapons Powerlevel is equal to your current.
Tier 1 = Weapons gain 6% of your current Powerlevel as additional damage
Tier 2 = Weapons gain 7% of your current Powerlevel as additional damage
Tier 3 = Weapons gain 8% of your current Powerlevel as additional damage
Tier 4 = Weapons gain 9% of your current Powerlevel as additional damage
Tier 5 = Weapons gain 10% of your current Powerlevel as additional damage
( The additional damage is added to the flat amount of the weapon )
I like what you got here. Only question i have is why do only Humans get the bonus on the staffs? Or was that meant to be Humanoids? If it is just Humans then I’m assuming alien races (including Saiyans) wouldn’t benefit from it, correct?
Not a drop. This would be the least original thing to be added. Planet Mado Lore could be developed out of it, but none such devices existed in DBZ Canon.
There are Blasters and Wrist mounted Ki Blasters, but this was mainly to flavor underused weapons and open up more possible Human avenues for play.
Kenjutsu and Bojutsu are real things and DBZ fighters have used swords and staves before.
I like the Ken, and I like the Bo. It is all grounded in lore. Was impressed with your approach to balance (sword is bleed, bo is block, etc). A single Bo counting as double weapon, genius.
But I’m on the fence about CCKAPM. At least as it is shown now… The lack of Lore gives me a lot of pause. It would be nice to see things like Pistol having more relevance past the first 2-3 weeks of a round. Even it’s only an extra month or two.
However, Applesauce’s got a point; planet mado introduced the concept of the Ki Amplifier, and its possession is being used as a balance factor. That justifies it a lot. There isn’t a lotta lore there, but we use it.
I’d like to see a pretty big nerf to the dmg values of CCKAPM, but the lethality is re-introduced through the combo system.
Can you expand on how CCKAPM interacts with Humans? I have advanced Ki Amplifier on the mind.
IF CCKAPM were to make its way into Planet Mado, I would be by Mod/Ref or even a Vote if you guys wanted it that way.
I kept the Weapon Gain X% Damage of Current Powerlevel to keep them useable later in the game. Since their Flat damage was low, adding a X% from Current PL made it possible to use them later without being hindered.
You would still need to purchase ammunition, as the Projectile only gets Modified by Ki, not created by it.
The Weapons wouldn’t be able to Combo, at least not from my perspective since it seems weird. I was going to leave it a “play and find out” feature for everyone on how Ki Amplifiers work, but I can give that info to anyone that’s interested.
