Threads Of Destiny(Eastern Fantasy, Sequel to Forge of Destiny)

Voted best in category in the Users' Choice awards.
Just because something is a few points stronger on paper, doesn't make it a better fit. The technique looked great as it was and crowbaring Music in there seems like tasteless munchkinism.

[X] Replace Academics with Explosive

The big mechanical change is that we are sacrificing this:

Watchful Moon Analysis: C
Duration: Immediate
Used in tandem with an damaging art, allows the users thoughts to far outspeed their limbs, greatly slowing their perception of the world, and allowing the user to pick out minute details that might otherwise be missed in the flows of an enemy or obstacles qi, and adjust the course of their blow. Through this the user ignores the effects of a single defensive technique of C rank or lower, or if none are active, penalizes the targets armor or avoid at the users discretion.

In exchange for a little extra range (but not coverage) for our Music techs.

Maybe try to invoke the New Moon with Darkness to try and lean into the secret gathering?

or even better:

[X] Replace Water with Cold

So absent anything to the contrary from yrs, I'm just going to assume that our existing plans are sound.

It's literally making the Art fit LQ better thematically.

I am talking about the internal consistency of the Art. The keywords fit perfectly to what it did and the technique as a whole seemed to be one of the more polished pieces in her arsenal.

I understand that the modification will fit and synergize better with other arts, but aesthetically it just gives me the impression of whacking a perfect sphere with a cleaver to fit into a square hole.

Also, as a side point, recall how she was given TRF as a lesson on not going too narrow. Scouting seems like a critical area that might tip the scales if Music is disabled enviromentally.

[x] Replace Academic with Music

For a scout art, I feel like projection sounds too crucial to give up. Academics is meh, so I'm sure music will do fine in its place.
