Chitan Ude (Technique Idea)

[Third Thousanth]

So, I have a character with this technique. I was wondering if any of you saw balancing issues or mistakes. As for the Preform and Learn DC's, I'm currently working those out.

In game my character has taken Exotic weapon Proficiency(Tree),
Weapon Focus (Tree), and has three levels in Weapon master(tree).
He has an attack bonus of +16 with tree's, and deals 2D12+6.

Comments or suggestions on the technique?



Chitan Ude (Titans Arm)
Chakra Control
Rank: 9 (A-class) Learn DC: X; Perform DC: X Time: One attack action.
Components: C; Range: Personal Area: None Duration: 2 rounds/level
Saving Throws: None Chakra Cost: 16

This technique originates from the hidden village of leaf. The user surrounds an abject in his own chakra, becoming able to move it without effort, regardless of the objects weight. The technique is activated as the user touches the object and is canceled the moment direct contact stops.
During the duration of this technique the user may lift, move, or swing the desired object as if it was weightless.

Any object that occupies more than a ten foot radius cannot be targeted by this technique. The Object may not be more than one hundred feet tall, and must be stable enough not to fall if moved.

Note:
The user may take the feat weapon focus with a single type of object and only take a -2 penalty to attack instead of the -4 when using the object as an improvised weapon with this technique. Taking exotic weapon proficiency with an object negates all penalties.

That is a pretty cool technique. What's the Learn and Perform DCs... That would go perfectly with my Doton Ninjutsu Master (Currently Level 8 and loving my Rock Dumpling and his Genius Nin)

that sounds pretty cool actually, but is that the only way he wields the tree? or is he gigantic and carries a tree around all the time?

Too bad a weightless tree doesn't exactly smack people in the face harder than a rather large, fluffy feather.

And if it doesn't become weightless, the technique makes no sense and should be either a technique that increases the user's strength immensely or be a doton technique that affects gravity.

Because conservation of momentum goes for everything, except for the Mako in Mass Effect, which defies all laws.

well basically if you were hit by a zero-g tree you still get the full impact, but if you were hit by a tree that has mass 0, you well are not hit at all.

How can you train to get exotic weapone feat with a tree? You need a jutsu to be able to swing it. I'm sure you can't train 4 hours a day without suffering from chakra depletion. I find it hilarious but extremely non-ninja.

Theres nothing else to balance here than the concept. You made a technique for you to use a tree as a weapon (?). If your GM says yes, end of story. Other things are secondary.

There is a system involved, and the information you're looking for is on pages 210 and 211 of the current file.

To answer your question this technique would have a Learn DC of 24 and would require 4 successful checks.
