Me vs Macawi

First off.. sorry about no color.. forgot to hit log before it started >.<

Secondly, I didn't think I was even close to winning that as the last 3-4 times we sparred it was a draw.

If there any pointers anyone can give, please feel free. Oh and I did have a couple of poisons on my shofa... but it was all morphite from the pervious owner. Trying to work up some combos now.

Too much fooling around with different body parts - did these attacks on arms even do anything? I noticed only one broken arm, and that's it. You're better off focusing on one body part, for wounding, and attacking other ones only if you want to deal desirable afflictions, like knockdown on legs. Of course, you have to change your attack pattern if the enemy starts to stance or parry.
Break on head (nose) is much better to have than paralysis.

I had the break modifier on on my unarmed Head katas.

I was under the impression that Shofangi/Teht monk afflictions are different then say Warriors or whatever. We have no ruptures in the shofangi, so we don't get wounding afflictions. Only the Ninjakari and Nekotai get ruptures as monks.

But thanks for the input! ^^

You were on the right track. We don't have ruptures so all the skills in our spec (I think) work at any wound level except crunch.

But break, stun, concussion and maybe one other all only work at medium wounds or above, and tick more often with more wounds.

Also, you only do any non-negligible damage if an area is wounded beforehand.
