Not really, no. It's just easier for me to deal with if I decide that Kakara is too smart to mess with that; it's a seriously bad idea.
Wouldn't it be easier to make it reflexes that are sped up, rather than pure thinking speed? It's one thing to act and react, but another thing entirely to actually learn at that speed.

Honestly, if you want to think of it that way, go ahead; the reason I do it this way is because the Z Fighters not only react, but think and strategize on that time scale. Ultimately the important thing is that this won't be granting extra yearly actions. This simply happens to be my way of explaining why.
 
The text of the spoiler policy, beyond being in a threadmarked update, is also on the OP; to summarize, anything that spoils any part of Super that has not received an official English dub can be discussed, but only in spoiler boxes. Video games are as subject to that as anything else.

So just to clarify: The Super part of it is (of course) still banned, but there are no blanket bans on whole games that only in part deal with Super or the original content part of the games? So as long as the Super stuff got left out, the OC, DB and DBZ rehash portions of the games are fair game for discussion, argument... and omakes? (Not that I'm working on an omake... nope, not me. *shifty eyes*)

That is completely correct. GT is also open for discussion, for that matter.
 
Can anyone come up with a non-combat use for Ki that actually makes use of SS levels of power?

Not that wouldn't still be super-noticeable outside of the wards.

I mean, some sort of "light show", or maybe even create sculptures of light/Ki.
Mapping out the topography of an area, continent, or even planet.
Mapping out the mineral veins and composition of a planet.
Creating enough Ki protection you can skim close to a star/sun to gather scientific data.

It can also be something you use in the hall. Like turning lead into gold because your allowence isn't enough.

Edit: The power Ball seems to be very stable. I wonder if a true master of ki could make a completely stable light ball.

I don't know that Ki would let us transmute elements. I'm more extending concepts like "enhanced senses" and "active ping" to the fullest extent possible.

That said, none of what I spelled out seems like it should require Super Saiyan levels of power, just lots of control.
 
I think that's enough time.

Invisibility and using ki without ki emissions would both likely fall under "ki tricks". Imagine if we could go SS2, but only put out SS1 levels of ki to be detected? EDIT: And, obviously, putting out large amounts of ki whilst being undetectable is the dream.

Honestly, with Ki user I'd see it as more of a matter of scale once you hit the higher tiers, even if most refuse to use it like that.

Healing an entire planet at once.

Hypnotizing an invading army to leave in peace

Depending on how you see certain DBZ movies, a powerful enough Ki user might even be able to return the recently deceased to life.

A modified version of the devilmite beam might be able to 'burn' the evil out of someone (which would likely give them a spiritual lobotomy).

Maybe a 'reverse' spirit bomb, that increases the potency of surrounding life by giving them some of the users ki.
 
Looking over the character sheets I realized something annynoing. Even though Kakara has had 3 years extra training she is still only equal with Jaffur's ki control even though she is supposed to be a ki prodigy.

Kakara is a Ki Prodigy.

Jaffur is a headcase with the type of Insane Focus that would either get him massive results or break him. In most of the other talents, hes lacking.

its like how Kakara is the one without combat skills (comparatively), but look how good she is.

That is just the thing Jaffar is still likely the better fighter of the two of them and he is also better with Ki.

No, hes better with Ki Control, which he needs for that style of his.

Which we might match already since it seemingly requires exceptional control.

Doesn't mean he matches us with the other fundamentals of Ki control.

Remember that Kakara was 'the weakling'

He's not, though. He's at least equal to Kakara in Ki Control, and presumeably as good as Kakara at flying, but I don't think he's as good as her at sensing ki, and I'm pretty sure he doesn't know telekinesis, telepathy or Multi-Form.
 
@PoptartProdigy : is Kakara's ki sense good enough to detect lifeforms on other planets? Goku was able to use instance transmission to travel between planets as soon as he learned the trick.

Theoretically. In practice she'll need to be elsewhere/much better/more powerful before she picks up on anything; Garenhuld does have a two-system blanket of nothing in any given direction, after all. Even for an FPSSJ at her level of skill, that's stretching it. Now, exceptionally powerful ki signatures are much more noticeable, much the same as stars being visible from a longer distance than planets. But even that would have to be pretty close in galactic terms for her to notice.

For Kakara in particular, she:

  • can pick up all ki signatures around the last recorded galactic average (low hundreds) possessed by the Exiles on the same planet without exception or paying any particular attention
  • can pick up all RGA signatures in the same solar system if paying attention
  • can bounce an active ping off of RGA signatures in the next solar system over (thirty light years at the most, but take note that this number is reactive with narrativium :p)
The alien leading the scouts, Kakara was able to read at 100,000. She will almost certainly pick up on it when it reaches the next solar system over from Garenhuld.

So she could just teleport onto one of their ships? Hmm, Can't tell them to go away. That would break the masquerade. Once they know this planet is defended by powerfull ki users they can not be allowed to leave and talk about it.

I was just reading about instance transmission. It has been used to teleport to the afterlife and back. When Kakara's had that meeting with God Gohan did she get a feel for his ki? Or does she happen to have any dead relatives?

Mortals cannot sense divine ki. As far as she was paying attention (not very, so she was picking up about everything in planetary range), there was nobody she could sense when she visited Gohan.
 
@PoptartProdigy : How different is Ki from Chakra? Could Kakara make a rasengan?

Edit: I just thought of a useful Ki experiment. Try to listen in on other people's telepathy. It should give quite a bit of a boost to our intrigue and it works to Kakara's strengths as a ki prodigy and having awesome ki sense. Is listening in on other people's telepathy already a thing or can Kakara invent it?
