Forsaken Arc

[Forsaken]

Forsaken Arc
Rank: A
Type: Bow, Long-Range, Selfish
Description: Named for being a the last creation of Maldin Grath, The Forsaken Arc had accidentally misfired while Grath was fine tuning it and the air had pierced the man through the forehead. His body was found and the bow sealed under the protection of a special family as specified by Garth.

The bow itself is made from a strong and flexible wooden material, colored like stone and dead blue skin. Along the middle is a worn leather handle that then moves outwards and branching many ways increasing it's dexterity and creating sharp points towards the front of it while the ends branch and splay creating sharp edges connected by a wire bow string. The final part of the bow was an ornate steel plate set over the handle to protect the hand and forearm. The protector while thick slopes into a wide spiked edge set just past the handle such as a fist-blade. Their is also a mechanism installed in the plate that when activated will draw the ends of the bow together to shorten it and make it more compact like a gauntlet, This change can occur quickly taking half a second. The Forsaken Arc shoots with a 90 meter distance, and 22.5 m/s speed while stacking damage. Blueprint must be obtained from Rave
Cost: 10,000

Stakes of Hell
Rank: B
Type: Arrow, offensive (10 a pack)
Description: These arrows are created with a special core that splays outward while the arrow head is a three bladed tip. when before these arrows are fired the user can put a Low amount of chakra into the the core then while in flight they will split into three separate sections spreading out by the user's control to increase trajectory before hitting the target.
Cost: 1000 Ryu a pack (100 each)

The wide splay of the bow's frame creates extra tension increasing the distance and speed of the shot by 100%.

Take this part out and you should be good to go. Although it is a complex-type bow used only for archery it cannot alter the speed/power of arrows as that is within terms of the fighting style you choose to use this bow for.

REVIEW!

[/color][/i][/b] I am not sure about the bow allowing the user to fire 90 meters, along with the speed of it being 45 m/s. That is already a lot, but you also want it to stack upon what the other basic techniques range and speed is. I don't think it should work that was, as I look at it as those are the best rates per rank that can be used with a standard bow. So, maybe you could say that, whatever arrow you would fire, whatever your bow stats are, that is what the arrows will get, without stacking on. You just replace the original distance and speed that they had. Since you know, your bow is superior then what they can do now.

So, make revisions to these things, and perhaps it will become more acceptable to me, at least.[/font][/size][/justify][/blockquote][/blockquote]

The Forsaken Arc "D"-"B" ranked Archery jutsu's distance and speed with a 90 meter distance, and 30 m/s speed. When performing an "A"-"S" rank technique, you will gain "D"-"C" rank speed and distance added on to the Bow's natural ability.

Lol what? D-C rank speed and distance added on to bow's natural ability? Is that even a measurable quantity?

Yeah, in the archery style, Kyuudou, the base rank technique has has speeds and distances that arrows can travel. And, what he had originally was that his current bow ability was able to stack on everything, so I told him to change it to his bow making the speed and meter range constant up to B-rank. So, when he uses A-S, he is able to improve his shot, but not by a monstrous about. So, I told him that even though he will perform higher rank shots, he can only take up D-rank meters and speed for A-rank, and C-rank meters and speed for S-rank. And, if it did so, it would be

• A-rank 20 meters & 4 m/s + 90 meters & 22 m/s = 110 meters & 26 m/s
  
• S-rank 40 meters & 8 m/s + 90 meters & 22 m/s = 130 meters & 30 m/s
  

I know what he has for speed is 30 m/s, and I told him to put that, but now I want him to change it to 22 m/s.

This confuses the hell outta me. I don't understand if you're referring to using techniques from the archery style, or the bow itself, or both. Could you word this so the understanding is a little better?

This, a B rank weapon, fires arrows faster than the fastest A ranked bows (20 m/s). Either raise it to A rank and match that speed, or lower the speed to something more in line with a B rank weapon, probably more akin to 10-15 m/s.

So, just for the record, fellow staffers.

We're all okay with the fact that using this bow in concurence with S-Rank archery allows the user to shoot arrows faster than 8th gate movement with absolutely zero stamina/chakra loss?

It wouldn't be the first time such a bow would be accepted, currently through a combination of arrows, techs and bows there's a number of ways to make your arrows fly at several magnitudes faster than the 8th gate. So this isn't the first such weapon to exist, but I just want to make sure we're all aware of the precedent that's being set, here.

If you guys are fine with that, then this gets my 1.3.

[Not Masakuni]

Whether its Bows or the 8th Gate that needs to be changed, I don't support that, personally. That's something of a serious balance issue we need to address. Good work for making that correlation, Exar. >>
