Report #344
Skillset: Tahtetso Skill: Bomrakini
 Org: Tahtetso Status: Completed Mar 2010
Furies' Decision:
Solution 1
Problem: The tahtetso modifiers rakto and bomrakini give similar afflictions,
have similar costs and are close together at the bottom of the skillset. Rakto
give breaks to limbs and broken jaw to head. Bomrakini again gives broken limbs
and broken nose to the head. Both skills are modifiers that only fire on basic
tahto strikes. Both cost 75 ka. Both have a small chance to fire below medium
wounds and are almost guaranteed to fire over medium wounds. The glaring
difference between the two is that bomrakini costs 1mo each time it fires -
rakto does not. This makes bomrakini completely redundant unless you want to
give broken nose (I see no use for broken nose as we can stun on gut for 0mo and
cannot stack bleeding). I propose changing bomrakini to an action and changing
the afflictions it can give.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #1: Change bomrakini to an action, costing 175ka and 0mo.
 It can only target limbs and delivers fractured arm
 to arms and crushed foot to legs.

The afflictions were chosen because they are easily cured, low wounding knight
afflictions that fit the flavour of Tahtetso attacks. No particular synergy
with existing Tahtetso skills is intended so let me know if I've missed
something. Making bomrakobo an action is to avoid allowing these afflictions to
fire with other modifiers as they would if it remained a mod. The ka cost is to
ensure that they can only be used once per form at 0/1mo. At 2mo it can be used
twice but sacrificing a kick and speed. At 3mo and higher, the monk has better
options than to give these afflictions.

Looks pretty well thought out. Solution 1.
