chidori question

[Kinz]

so right now i have raikiri and all the subsequent techs for chidori (nagashi, spear, and needles)

my question: how does the chakra consumption work for this?

is it 2x high for chidori + 2x high for nagashi= 1x massive every time i want to use nagashi? or can i simply spend the 2x high to use nagashi?

[Axcel]

if you only plan on using nagashi, then you can just expend the 2x high to use nagashi

[Kinz]

and that goes for the spear/needles thing too?

what about if i wanted to use those via raikiri, would their base cost equal raikiris 3x high?

[Axcel]

I think the needles are an exception to what I said earlier, since they explicitly require Chidori to be summoned first whereas the others you can just form hand seals to cast them straight away.

If you're using them through Raikiri, then that means you'd have to use Raikiri first, so the cost would be stacked on top of Raikiri I believe.

This is my fault.

The chakra consumption for those techniques are wrong. Essentially, it's supposed to be Chidori costs a High. Then, in order to alternate it into either of the sub-techniques, it will cost you another High (the high of the technique in question) stacking to a total of x2 High.
