The basic attack with a tahto weapon will do blunt damage. Note that while a tahto is wielded, the trained monk can still perform punches and other moves.

When using your tahto to attack opponents, your weapon will shear away the defences of your enemies that serve to keep your weapons out. It will also boost your damage and wounds.
==Boost==
{|
|-
|style="background:pink"|Power: 5 or 10 (Pool of Stars)
|-
|}
You can now expend power for a temporary increase in momentum. Suppose you have a Kata form called <tt>SMASH</tt> and another called <tt>DESTROY</tt>. Normally you could string these together using this syntax:<br/>
<tt>KATA PERFORM ROARK SMASH DESTROY</tt>
If you do not have enough momentum to support the ka cost of <tt>DESTROY</tt> then you boost your momentum by a level for 5 power. You use <tt>+</tt> to do this. For example:<br/>
<tt>KATA PERFORM ROARK SMASH +DESTROY</tt>
You can boost multiple forms. For example, if you lack the momentum for both <tt>SMASH</tt> and <tt>DESTROY</tt> then you could boost both for a sum cost of 10 power with this syntax:<br/>
<tt>KATA PERFORM ROARK +SMASH +DESTROY</tt>
Finally, you can also boost your forms by two momentum levels using ++. For example, if you need two more levels of momentum to afford the <tt>SMASH</tt> form then you could spend 10 power to do the following:<br/>
<tt>KATA PERFORM ROARK ++SMASH DESTROY</tt>
Lastly, there is a level 6 of momentum that opens 1500 ka points. You cannot attain this level through normal means. Only through boosting can you get to level 6 momentum.
NOTE: This skill does not actually increase your momentum. It just gives a temporary boost. So if an attack causes you to lose momentum, boosting will not help you avoid the momentum loss.

Carefully choosing the optimum place to strike with your tahto staff, you may cause various afflictions, including a broken jaw (head), knocked wind (chest, balance loss), paralysis (gut), or broken limbs.
{{AB

|description = This is the advanced version of the Base stance.
<br><br>
Bonus Effect: Haemophilia if you enter Center stance within 8 seconds of entering Base Stance.
<br><br>
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.             
<br><br>
You can build up to 850 hemorrhaging on a target.
<br><br>
Certain afflictions will give you bonus hemorrhaging if your target has them when you start your form. Boosting will also double your hemorrhaging.                                                         
<br><br>
Afflictions: CrushedChest, Sickening, Healthleech, Clumsiness
<br><br>
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).

With a well-placed blow from your staff, you may cause various afflictions, including a brief loss of mental equilibrium (head), shortness of breath (chest), stun (gut), limb balance loss (arms), or a cracked kneecap (legs) to prevent stancing.

This action does various mild and also potentially major injuries to the body, including a blackout, collapsed lungs, severed spine (gut), or damaged limbs. In the case of hitting limbs, you will mangle them if they are already broken. If you are unable to mangle, this move will always break the bone and either trip the target or sometimes force the hands to unwield. This move will cause you to lose some momentum, and more will be lost if your target's spine is severed.
