TEC Multiplier

[Kakashi Hatake]

Imagine TEC as your chance to hit, and your chance to hit well. It doesn't determine base damage, but you know how to apply minimal force to inflict maximum damage. A High ATK helps, but it's not entirely needed. Still, it doesn't matter how high your TEC is if you're weak as a kitten. You can dodge quite well, but god help you if you try to parry, stab, shank, slash, etc. You can, and will be overpowered with the time-old staple of brute force.

This is how I've always thought of TEC. Like ATK 10 TEC 0 would be an enormously strong thing that has a hard time hitting. Having a low TEC doesn't affect how strong your attacks are, just how effective they are (my understanding). Like a lower TEC (2 vs. 4 or something) might make you not so much miss as maybe not hit the way you'd want. Or block poorly or maybe trip while running fast. Just my two cents.
