The tier I Juyo vicious saber staff style.

The basic description looks good. I like the Assured Strike, though for a tier one style, perhaps the +6 slashing bonus is overkill - I'd reduce the slashing bonus of the style by 1.

Vornskt's Ferocity's multiple opponents power seems overpowered to me. What possible motivation could you have for not using it? I'd say it should cost your action to attack two opponents at the same time - the power might not be appropriate for a tier 1 style, but since a saberstaff is required I can let that go - it fits with the weapon type.

Relentless hunter looks excellent. Don't touch it ^_^

Updates to Juyo:

Assured Strike: lowered slashing by 1 dot.

Vornskr's Ferocity: "Description: When attacked by multiple opponents, you can use your action to attack both your target and one other opponent at the same time. Additionally, when opening a combat with Juyo, if you engage a lone opponent, you get a free defensive advantage action."


We like to note, that the cutting score of this style also goes through the roof based on the Assured strike manoeuvre... (We can't give less points for the Assured Strike, as that would make keeping the advantage better than expending it. As it is now, you get a single extra dot, and focus on cutting and slashing, in contrast to the +1/+1/+1 of an offensive advantage)

We agree that a +6 is stretching it, but we don't really want to weaken the style any more. If this is irreconcilable with other's feelings for balance, we might need to up this style to Tier II...

Looks good. I'm willing to see how it pans out.

That's an APPROVED, I take it?

Affirmative.
