Boost

Syntax
KATA PERFORM <target> <form> BOOST

KATA PERFORM <target> <form>+

Power: 2 (Pool of Stars)

Boosting a form will give you a temporary 13/13 balance buff for that form only. You can add boost either by using the BOOST argument at the end of the form or appending '+' to the end for the form name.


{{AB |skillname = Aegis |description = This is the advanced version of the Base stance.

Bonus Effect: Haemophilia if you enter Center stance within 8 seconds of entering Base Stance.

Changing stances now deals hemorrhaging. Hemorrhaging is an affliction that prevents you from clotting bleed below that level, or bruising below half that level. It cures over time.

You can build up to 850 hemorrhaging on a target.

Certain afflictions will give you bonus hemorrhaging if your target has them when you start your form. Boosting will also double your hemorrhaging.

Afflictions: CrushedChest, Sickening, Healthleech, Clumsiness

You can now use the BURST word to convert all your targets hemorrhaging to bruising at a two to one ratio. (i.e. 100 hemorrhaging becomes 50 bruising).
