Alright.

Now, Crystal Cannon. This is gonna be one that I have to deny. I appreciate the efforts to balance it, but out of the box it's simply too powerful, being equivalent to a Racial.

Which also brings me to the math that I did, where a lot of damage stacking can be done to fire off an attack for minimal Ki Cost, but you're doing WAY more damage compared to anyone else, who have to spend their actions charging normally to match it.

I'm not accusing you of intentionally trying to game the system of course, I'm simply observing that this type of Technique makes it possible, and I'm going to err on the side of caution and deny it; because approving it would open the door for other people to try and use similarly built Techniques for ill intent.

So in an attempt to better understand the effects going on here. Does this mean that, regardless of Tier used, it adds 10% of his PL in damage before any other charging or effects occur?

Because in such a case, I'll still have to consider this an odd choice. To better demonstrate what I mean:

Actions:
1 - Charging Crystal Cannon, charge goes from 10% to 15%
2 - Charging Crystal Cannon, charge goes from 15% to 20%
3 - Fires Crystal Cannon at 20% Charge

Alternatively:
All 3 Actions - Charge goes from 10% to 30%

---

From what I can tell. This would be more like...

1 - Charging Crystal Cannon, charge goes from 10% to 20%
(?)

Either way. I would ask that Techniques follow the charging rules already laid out, as it's less confusing for everyone involved.
