Move Creation Workshop

[Kakashi Hatake]

I don't think that including a charge while already using the weapon will fly. 'Cause then you can't really call that kind of charging a down side to the move. Charge times generally imply that there is a window to stagger the foe or at least a time when you're left vulnerable/not attacking, so you wouldn't be able to do much else while charging (maybe blocking or something if the strikes don't break your concentration). But with these downsides, the blasts will have a good deal more strength to them as you're sacrificing concentration and (probably) mobility to pull it off. And as you plan on using this as a mid/long range attack, I imagine the 5 second charge won't really be much of an issue. =P

Really? I seem to recall having done something similar to that before... Alright, well, how about a two second pause and a notable investment of energy? Usual stipulations applying of course.

The larger investment of energy/fatigue would balance the shorter charge time, so I think that's reasonable.

It's all about balance, if you wanted to have the ability to charge and attack at the same time, you'd probably have to bake in a stipulation about his normal attacks maybe doing less during that time or his TEC allowing him to resist breaking concentration when fighting foes of lower TEC or something similar. Or invest a bunch more energy, as you said. Provided you minus from other places, you can add in more upsides usually.

So yeah. Angels have final say, but I'd say it looks pretty good.
