* First, I'd like to note that I disagree with the notes that this charm should be gotten rid of and this sub-tree folded into some other tree. Rather it's the shapeshifting tree, or the unarmed attacks charm (though there might very well be a similar charm there). That gets way too far into the 'rewriting the Lunar charm chapter' angle for me. The option of choice here is to rewrite the charm to be useful, NOT to change the entire way that Lunar charm trees work. | * First, I'd like to note that I disagree with the notes that this charm should be gotten rid of and this sub-tree folded into some other tree.

Notes on my Reasonings:
- First, I'd like to note that I disagree with the notes that this charm should be gotten rid of and this sub-tree folded into some other tree. Rather it's the shapeshifting tree, or the unarmed attacks charm (though there might very well be a similar charm there). That gets way too far into the 'rewriting the Lunar charm chapter' angle for me. The option of choice here is to rewrite the charm to be useful, NOT to change the entire way that Lunar charm trees work.
- Second, the main problem here is that this is a DB charm and a Celestial has it. That's not really acceptable, so we've got to boost the power level a little bit and make it a slight bit more powerful. I haven't thought this out yet, so this is not a final answer -- just a plee at moving the topic in the correct direction (fixing, rather than rewriting). So, my suggestion! If you don't like it, suggest something else, and let's see if we can fix it. Alternatively, I put a voting thing for "merge the trees" too.

Morpheus, could you please explain yourself? Merge which trees? My vote is to replace it with Body Weapon Technique. ^_^ -- BrokenShade
Exactly. I'd make Body Weapon Technique able to allow the lunar to either deal lethal or block lethal for an instant. - Morpheus
