So like, how many technique hackers are there?
Depends on what you count. It's not uncommon for a ninjutsu-spec jōnin to learn some technique hacking, mostly to make tweaks for their own use. It's rarer to find people who specialize in creating jutsu for other people.
Can it be deactivated and reactivated freely? Also, how bright is it roughly? Like within an order of magnitude.
You did not specify that the rune could be toggled in the design so no, it can't. You could research a version that can if you want. It will be slightly harder but not extremely so.
Regarding brightness... optics and light are a complete pain in the butt. We are tentatively going to say that it's at least as bright as the brightest real-world spotlight. We leave it to y'all to figure out what that means, although we reserve the right to change that if it turns out that the brightest real-world spotlight is fission-powered or something ridiculous like that.
Can we choose the flaw upon failure? Can we deliberately take flaws during the initial design of the new technique in order to reduce the TN of the original spec?
No, you cannot choose the flaw on failure. Not sure what you mean by "take flaws during initial design", since that simply means choosing an easier spec.
Wait, then how did Noda's
glitched TH roll end up killing Morita? If assistants aren't a thing why would any working TH user be anywhere near another one another, risking harm to each other for zero gain?
Hazō doesn't know. You can ask Noda if you wish.
Hazou completes the Runic HOWS! Within the rune's Zone, everyone is effectively blinded by intense omnidirectional light. The light is white by default but can be tuned at infusion time just like seal-based HOWS. Outside the Zone, the rune's Zone is perceived as a white sphere, providing bright illumination for around 5 zones in every direction. The rune lasts indefinitely.
How far does the "drain" stretch? Does it affect Hazo or a SC if they step into the "drain" zone?
Not sure what drain you are talking about?
@eaglejarl @Paperclipped @Velorien how many hours per calendar day did Hazō spend under time dilation? 15? 21? All 24?
It would help us figure it out if you could specify why you need to know. We've already said it was 9 days objective, so what does the number of hours matter?
[Runic HOWS] should suck up a great deal of environmental chakra to operate. Does Hazou notice anything weird when using MS8, or chakrascope near it (acknowledging that he might not be able to see the seals). How about casting jutsu, is that normal?
He does not feel anything different. Chakrascope seals go bananas. MS8 does work but is harder to read due to erratic flows going to and from the Runic HOWS.
@Paperclipped Do the new runes we researched have runic drag? Can the Air Dome Rune be moved after activation or is it fixed?
Yes and no, respectively.
Forcing Kisame to reverse summon and stay on the Seventh Path for a week or so is pretty nice
Hazō's summoning training placed heavy emphasis on one particular point that is relevant here: one way to deal with a summoner is to watch where they reverse summon from, then bury that point in a big mound of solid material. It needs to be a
big mound, since the world is willing to shunt you a few meters to find a safe place for your return. Hazō isn't completely certain if this will result in the person dying upon their return or whether the unsummoning will simply fail. He also doesn't know what the minimum density is for the stuff you would need to bury the return point in. For obvious reasons, there hasn't been a lot of experimentation on the subject.
Alright, so I've been thinking about this. Here's the question: does the future sight let him see his future perceptions, or the future of what he's looking at?
Hazō doesn't know.
Also, have Naruto check whether turning on the Sharingan is enough to activate Chakdar. That's a passive observation system that we can turn into a trigger.
Sasuke is not willing to share that information, but Hazou suspects that the answer would be no – chakdar doesn't detect ninjutsu being cast until they're manifested. Assuming that the Sharingan activation is entirely internal, it seems unlikely that it would trigger chakdar.
Was wondering if you had an answer for my other question (the first one you quoted)?
Oops, sorry. Here you go:
So does this mean that if we use SSA on a cycle and then immediately thereafter (read: <1 day) get into combat, we don't suffer the stat loss due to the "Touched by the Out" consequence?
Correct. If you only have a single instance of Touched by the Out and you have no other mental consequences then you would not suffer the penalties for it during combat, even on the same day that you got it.
