Monk Anatomies?

Would it make sense to add some type of idea in where the monks that are training have a critical hit chance based on how well they know their opponents physiology? I mean... wouldn't it make sense that a monk, who relies on mainly pressure, at least with kata and the Tahtetso... find the spots on the target that were the "pressure" points and use those to his advantage?

I was just thinking about it and wondering if there was a way to add in some type of studying for the monks to be able to study the different opponents anatomies... such as have a different number for the knoledge in Loboshigaru... and Lucidian, for instance.

I don't know... I was just thinking about it. It just made sense, I suppose. wink.gif confused.gif

This is where the 'stun', 'concussion', 'pinchnerve' and similar skills come in. I'd call those familiarity with physiology.

As well, certain other attacks. Tahtetso bomir'rak for hemiplegy, for example. Next to no damage, it's just a sharp nudge with the tahto.

Right, exactly... now wouldn't it make sense to have those skills get better as the monk gets more used to and learns more about the person's physiology? That way crits and shattering crits would come more into how skilled a monk is rather than how many circles you have... which I think seems to be the way that it looks like right now.

Oh... I didn't know that... shows how pathetic I am... but still! Anatomies would be cool!

Imagine a Demigod-crit rate, with a chance for 32x crits, 3 times per form...

Well, it wouldn't have to give them the power crit rate... but I'm just saying that it could give some crit rate... I don't know... I thought it sounded pretty at the time...

And demi's get that much? That's insane!!!

Demi-crit-rate is something like 42%, I believe.

I'd love it if monks could get certain bloodtraits, and then be able to copy their foes ability. That, or hypnotize them, or be able to predict with complete certainty what they're going to do (unless they happen to have yellow hair and be incredibly annoying).

(Don't mind me, I'm just a bit bored at the moment)
