I gather doton in my chest its the easiest place to start. i start with a small amount of doton, and slowly move it down to my feet,finally i move it down to earth. Almost immediately the tremors start. I'm certain im standing still, but everything around me is violently shaking.

Pros: Can cover large area providing a nice coverage for offense and or defense
Cons: Could mess up your concentration, easily avoided by jumping

 

[Nathan]

No worries very good.

(Doton: Iwa Yado Kuzushi) - Earth Release: Stone Lodging Destruction
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Descripton: This technique allows the ninja to control nearby stone and rock. This can be especially useful if in a cave or a stone lodging. The technique can loosen the rocks and cause them to come raining down on whomever is trapped inside.

Send a decent amount into the earth below, focus the chakra to go towards any nearby stone and rocks, doing gives you control them, only nearby ones. This jutsu is better to use inside a cave, cause you can loosen the rocks and cause them coming raining down, to whom ever is trapped in the cave.

 

[Cigbeast]

I send my doton chakra to my feet where it gathers for some time. When i feel im ready i push it into the ground and find a few rocks nearby. I lift them into the air and circle them around my body before dropping them.
Pros: Fast using jutsu, has multiple uses and can protect you
Cons: if sent straight down could be used or punched back into you

 

[Nathan]

Well done.

(Doton: Doryū Taiga) - Earth Release: Earth Flow River
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After forming the needed hand sealTiger, the user transforms the ground underneath their opponent into a river of mud that throws them off balance and away from the user. The mud created by this technique can also be used as a medium for the Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet technique.

First perform the hand seal Tiger then send your doton chakra down below into the ground, once doing that manipulate the ground below to turn into a river of mud, under your target. It throws your target off balance and away from you.

 

[Cigbeast]

After sending my chakra into the earth and immediately preforming the tiger seal, the ground instantly turns to a murky deep mud. Raging like a river yet stiff like a rock.

Pros: Easy to get people of balance, can be used as a gateway to other moves and increases cooperation with other chakra natures
Cons: goes both ways, you might be off balance, or easily avoided by jumping

 

[Nathan]

Good, good.

(Doton: Doryudan) - Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet

Description: When used with Earth Release: Earth Flow River, the user will then perform the Ram → Horse → Dragon they can create a dragon-like head to fire concentrated mud at an opponent. This can also be combined with a fire jutsu to shoot lava toward an opponent.


Preform Earth Flow River again.
But also

Preform the handseals Ram → Horse → Dragon, then gather up some more doton chakra, with doing that it should create a dragon like head out of the mud river, that will shoot concentrated mud at your target.

Please try it.

-Creates clone.-

 

[Cigbeast]

Hmm sounds fun.

Just as senpai creates a shadow clone i preform my tiger seal. The muddy river almost instantly comes rushing. I wait until the clone is almost swamped before i do the jutsu. I preform Ram → Horse → Dragon and begin to charge doton chakra.I back-flip out of the crossfire and start the jutsu. The mud lifts the clone out of the river and just as the clone reaches the apex of its jump the mud forms the head of a dragon and fires multiple globs of mud, quickly homing in until they deliver the killing blow.

Pros: easily used if mud flow river used beforehand
Cons: opponent can use as gateway to his own technique, requires other jutus beforehand

 

[Nathan]

Well done.

[Cigbeast]

I send my doton chakra into the ground, once again, then perform the seals Rat → Horse → Dog → Snake. As i do three pillars rise that i rotate between the two of us.

(Doton: Doroku Gaeshi) - Earth Release: Earth Shore Return
Rank: C
Type: Defence
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After striking the ground with their hands, the user creates a large wall of earth in front of him/her. The defence is not perfect though, since a hard or drilling impact can puncture the wall. Also, since this technique only guards frontal attacks, the enemy can easily attack from the side or even from above.

First strike the ground, with your hands as you strike the ground send your doton chakra into the ground once doing that manipulate the earth below to create a large wall of earth in front of you. The defense isn't perfect.

It's a good jutsu, if you want to defend yourself quickly from frontal attacks.

 

[Cigbeast]

First I strike the ground with my hands as you strike the ground I send my doton chakra into the ground and manipulate the earth below to create a large wall of earth in front of me.The walll is small, but effective.

Pros: Easy to produce, can easily put one up and retreat
Cons: Easily broken/avoided

 

[Nathan]

A little more detail, if you can.

(Doton: Doro Hōshi) - Earth Release: Mud Spore
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Long
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This technique lets the user summon a river of mud infront of them. This technique can have water added to it to speed up the flow and increase its power.

Gather your doton chakra up, then this allows the user (you) to summon a river of mud infront of you. Water can be added to power to it.

 

[Cigbeast]

Idk how to detail this one...

I conjure up all the doton chakra i can muster and focus it in front of me. As i do the ground starts getting soggy, and shortly after summons a raging river of mud.

Pros:Rather fast to use, can lead into other techniques
Cons: can be used againsst you in conjunction with earth/water techniques

 

[Nathan]

Good.

Do you have any questions about training or the element itself that isn't clear with you?

 

[Cigbeast]

Srry, but just one. With most of the techniques do you produce the doton itself or does it come from the ground?

 

[Nathan]

Srry, but just one. With most of the techniques do you produce the doton itself or does it come from the ground?

Its more of a 70% you create from the ground, while the remaining 30% you create yourself, does that make sense?

 

[Cigbeast]

Yea i get it,thanx

 

[Nathan]
