Not only this but you can reflect light from the crystal too. There is some examples in the cannon list.Crystal release is an advanced elemental which is used by bios with earth and wind release, it has advantages over earth, water and wood, but is weak to lightning and sound which can make it shatter.
Crystal release is used up until cellular level meaning it can be created from physical mass [lightning and fire hold no mass so someone with good chakra control could counter it this way] and manipulated if already existing in the world.]
It can also crystallize living beings imprisoning them.
It is also susceptible to sound as a certain frequency can shatter it -> look at real world shattering whine glasses,.
The crystal can also be used as a defense mechanism hardening the body for incoming physical attacks.
It can also extend the users taijutsu range with for example the use of crystal blades attached to the arms, extending nails as crystals almost immediately good for free form fighting.
Also it can be used as a observation method in the form of a crystal ball. But only for objects/persons in direct line of sight. Not if masked by lets say mist, smoke screens, and other jutsu. The downside is that ball should be held in hand at all times. But you could build on this for a custom jutsu I suppose?
Crystal can also be used to make identical clones of one self which could even fool a byakugan user if they are not paying attention.
That's what I can think of on top of my head
CrystalYes it says, its weak to fire but its not weak to fire in a sense it can block incoming fire dmg right? Like make a wall to protect one self against fire.
Nice work. Third one could be useful when you're doing missions to be fair.1. summon shurikens throw them all at once. or one after another. Same speed as freeform shurikens. Can be sped up with wind I guess. Seems pretty straight forward
2. Same principal as number 1 these can be stopped by denser materials cuz they are small and more fragile. I would use these to aim them at certain parts to incapacitate the enemy.
3. More a jutsu to be used outside of combat where you can scout the battlefield for people etc. cloaked or hidden object/peoples can't be seen by this. User must hold the ball in one hand to be used at all times.
Yeah good good.1. basicly extends your arm in a lance/spear. it says you cant move hand or wrist but i think if it comes from the should you can only use it with the arm extended. good for keeping someone at bay.
2. spawn a lot of sharp crystals around you flying in all directions same speed as shuriken enhanced by wind.
3. Spawn crystal spikes from the ground after handseals [depends of specializations] size of a man to catch people when they fall on them, to make them move somewhere, to stab them where they stand, or enclose them in them
You can do it before the fight, yes.1. Make clones out of a mirror. prob do this before a fight no?
2. clones made out of the mirror, shattering when defeated which would then could be used again I guess as a material ;p can deceive byakugan users when they are not paying attention. this can only be used after the mirror jutsu.
this uses clone battle usage which I should read
1. Be careful how you word things. Freeform is like if you attack someone without using a jutsu. All jutsu need to be countered by using a jutsu. But you have free reign with this basic application that gives you diversity with your element.1. free form with crystals baby! xD
2. Some kind of temple you make to enhance your other powers? but you need to be within the pillars casting you jutsu and only for 3 turns.
i'm in a raid so replying really short sorry xd
You're going to have to elaborate on what you mean bud. What mode?btw I would use the zanpaktou to enhance the speed of this freeform mode and jutsu bound to the weapon. that would be a nice addition no?
I meant you freeform in the way you can chose how the crystals are made, the looks of it etc right?1. Be careful how you word things. Freeform is like if you attack someone without using a jutsu.

2. Stand still and 3 turns of buff. A set up jutsu for minimal buff to be fair.

Yeah you have a free reign on the way you create it, while retaining that rank.I meant you freeform in the way you can chose how the crystals are made, the looks of it etc right?
The zanpaktou would enhance this ability but lets leave that aside as I don't understand it enough yet. on how to make it, the boundries etc.
Yeah thx for the info and it would suck indeed if it would be stuck on rank B. But fun to already start thinking about it and having it ready to go when we get there.Yeah you have a free reign on the way you create it, while retaining that rank.
Right while we are here i'll talk you through it real quick. You can make two custom weapons, these don't count towards you cj limit. You can only ever have one custom weapon on a bio at any time. The weapon's rank can only made for the rank level you can use, so right now you can use B ranks, so your weapon could be B rank.
Your cw can have up to i'd say 4 abilities. The more you have the weaker each ability will have to be.
Now the sword you want to make, i believe is Byakuya's Zanpaktou. For this you could do a couple of things. Say the sword is made of crystal that can breakdown into 1000 shards that you can then control, much like his shikai. You could try and say due to the infusion of crystal chakra in the sword, your crystal jutsu get a passive boost. ... we can work on these though
I'd strongly advise you wait until you're jounin rank and focus on ranking up now and look for some battles to rank up to get some experience.
