I knwo you aren't done yet but, you need to redo everything you have already done. "damage" alone is not an effectI don't know how weak you plan on making these technques, but I guarantee you that you don't want any technique that will only cost 1-2 SE. A regular punch from any character will be more effective than what a price that low can buy you.

The reason it's so low is because you need high spiritual energy to get the ones that require skills, and you need certain runes, which means you won't be able to use all types of runology, even at higher levels (of Runology). What I was getting at with damage was that it hurt you. I didn't know how to word that, so I guess I could take that out. I had another idea on how to do this, but that would mean more messing around with the BRC set-up, and I don't think that would be well looked-upon.

Anyway, I added some more, and upped the cost of a few of them.

...You still have to specify How much damage it attack does.

EDIT: This means the exact number or equation of how many stamina points the opponent loses. not "light damage" or "heavy damage"

Alright. This is turning out to be a lot tougher than I thought. >.>

EDIT: Is that better? I won't make any new ones until these pass first.

I'd say a bit more spirit energy on the air abilities. A 15 foot blast can hurt a lot. I'd make it lower. And explain more of how the blast of wind is a direct hit on soul wind.

Hikari Luna · Member Joined: 11 May 2009 Posts: 48 Location: Supertown

Alright, edited and made the buffering wind spells a higher cost. I don't know about Soul Energy and such, but this becoming more costly than I originally thought. Oh well, I'll deal with it.

EDIT: I'll deal with it mainly because I never expected Runology to get accepted in the first place.

I'm liking it but I still think that 7 feet is hard to accomplish with air and 10 spirit energy so make it like 30 because that would make more sense=P

EDIT: Make 3 skill requirements on (explosion major) 2 on (explosion) and 1 on explosion (minor)
