• For crescent moon beheading, does it auto nat one any attack roll or only melee or only non spell or what? a guaranteed not hit from half of attack types for so cheap is kinda crazy ~~ GentlestGolemn ~~(talk) 01:32, 16 December 2021 (MST)

As detailed in the header, "any attack rolls the [Bukijutsu] calls for are attacks with that weapon", so it must be an attack roll with a weapon.--Ref3rence (talk) 09:28, 16 December 2021 (MST)

• You should clarify what gets blocked in the jutsu, because people are using "Cloud-Style Crescent Moon Beheading" to be immune to all attack rolls, melee and spell, for a turn, on servers i'm on ~~ GentlestGolemn ~~(talk) 17:23, 27 December 2021 (MST)

The intent is every attack roll. Players need to sacrifice their entire action and a greater-than-nothing amount of chakra (a typical 20th level player can only use it about 10 times without using any other jutsu), and can still be targeted by saving throws and auto-damage. That being said, I have added additional conditions (that are avoidable with additional cost) to give non-setting creatures a better chance.--Ref3rence (talk) 19:10, 27 December 2021 (MST)

does affinity in taijutsu grant you a +1 to attack bonus and damage for normal unarmed strikes or just those described in descriptions of taijutsu? CleverNot 15:57, 5 February 2023

Unless the unarmed strike is made as part of a taijutsu you cast, it would not gain the bonus.--Ref3rence (talk) 19:06, 5 February 2023 (MST)

for Seven Heavens breathing method and stacking it, does the "You lose 1d4 hit points at the end of each of your turns." count as one of the benefits that stack? i know that losing HP isnt really much of a benefit for anyone, but i'm unsure if the intention is that it counts as a benefit for balance reasons. - CleverNot 11:50, 3 March 2023 (EST)

This has been clarified.--Ref3rence (talk) 12:01, 11 March 2023 (MST)

Would a creature who peregrine falcon drop or front lotus is used on take fall damage? P@uL (talk) 01:53, 4 April 2023 (MDT)

This is ultimately up to the DM, but I rule that they do not for simplicity unless it's clearly the player's intent to do so, in which case both the target and caster take damage.--Ref3rence (talk) 11:44, 4 April 2023 (MDT)

In Seven Heaven Breathing Method jutsu, it says it's an Action to initiate it and that it can be stacked. Are those stacks also Actions as well, separate Bonus Actions, or can you choose to initiate Seven Heaven Breathing Method at full power from the start? - Mulan316

You need to use an action to initiate each stack. P@uL (talk) 00:37, 30 August 2023 (MDT)

Thanks for the clarification. I got another question. Would having affinity in Taijutsu affect Substitution in anyway?

Not quite since it doesn't deal damage or incur a saving throw. P@uL (talk) 01:56, 12 September 2023 (MDT)

"Assassination Mode" and "Shadow Clones"

Hello, I have a question about the mechanics of Assassination Mode, it says you can make 1 additional bonus action attack right? Would that attack count as an Extra Attack for the Shadow Clone? Or can a Clone, using this jutsu, make 3 attacks? (1 action, 1 bonus action, 1 bonus action)
