With this, we're done with projectiles part of method 1.

Now, come Isolated chakra release techniques.

Isolated Area Chakra Release: To put it simply, same concept as the full body only this time you're isolating the area and releasing chakra in a specific area instead of every part of your body.

Reborn has already taught you this. Can you list all the jutsus which fall under "Isolated Area Chakra Release"?

( Doton: Iwa Rendan ) - Earth Release: Rock Barrage

(Doton: Kengan no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Fist Rock Technique

I think these are the only two that involve using chakra in an isolated part of your body

The D-Ranked Doton No Jutsu always comes for everything:

(Doton No Jutsu) - Earth Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Attack/Defence
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Descripton: Creates small pillars of earth, small tools, and small shields of earth

And this,

(Doton: Kengan no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Fist Rock Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 30
Description: After performing the snake → Seal of Confrontation and then by encasing their arm in rock, the user can deal a powerful hardened punch against an opponent while being protected from direct contact with their target. If necessary, the weight of the rock can be increased to further increase the punch's destructive power through the Earth Release: Added Weight Technique or the Earth Release: Super Added Weight Technique.

Rock Barrage wouldn't be there. Since, you're just releasing the rocks as projectiles, by swinging your arm, whereas, these two include coating a certain part of your body with earth.

Yea. To make things simpler for myself, I'll be posting the tech, and describe it. You just analyze it for me; i.e. adv/disadv all in one para. No need of a shitty template. And, no need to perform it.

(Doton: Kengan no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Fist Rock Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 30
Description: After performing the snake → Seal of Confrontation and then by encasing their arm in rock, the user can deal a powerful hardened punch against an opponent while being protected from direct contact with their target. If necessary, the weight of the rock can be increased to further increase the punch's destructive power through the Earth Release: Added Weight Technique or the Earth Release: Super Added Weight Technique.

So, you weave the Snake handseal and then follow up with the seal of confrontation, after which you gather your Earth chakra in your body and channel it to your arm, applying shape manipulation to give the earth a very hardened form. It's quite obvious that this causes destructive damage, and causes more impact and damage than a normal punch. The downside is that your punch would be slower than normal, because of the weight of the earth encasing your arm. Also, you can increase the weight of the earth by Added Weight or Super Added Weight technique, and make your punches super deadly, which can be used to break entire earth structures themselves. Although, with the increased weight, you lose speed.

Well the obvious advantage to this technique is that it serves as a simultaneous defense and offence with both protecting your arm in a hardened rock casing, and giving increased damage though Taijutsu. But, there are required handseals which make the jutsu a little unappealing because if seems to be cumbersome to perform a simple technique in idea using handseals

We'll move on to full body releases now:

(Doton no Yoroi) - Earth Release Armor
Rank: B
Type: Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20 (-15 per turn to remain active)
Damage points: N/A (+10 to taijutsu moves)
Description: This Technique coats the users body with stones, making them much more resistant to attacks, at the cost of their speed. Whilst using this technique, the user can even change their appearance, but once the technique is either defeated or worn off the users original appearance is shown. The user whilst in this armor is resistant to B rank ninjutsu techniques but is vulnerable to Lightning Techniques.

So, you gather a good amount of Earth chakra in your entire body, and release it all at once, from every single tenketsu from your body, as a burst, which you then manipulate to form stones, which coat your entire body. You have the choice of coating your entire body or leaving a body part uncoated, so that you're not robbed of your sight, meaning you can only coat upto your head or neck level. You can also change your appearance by picturing a mental image of whatever you want to look like, as long as it's logical, and use the same principle of releasing chakra from every point in the body, but you give your chakra the shape and form of whatever you've imagined. It can protect you from Taijutsu attacks and B-Rank Ninjutsu attacks, but A-Rank Ninjutsu will rip off the armor. As logic states, C-Rank Lightning can neutralize the armor, but it won't harm you, although B-Rank and above Lightning techs will destroy the armor as well as continue on, as C-Rank or above. You gain physical strength, because of how hard and durable the stones are, but in turn, you lose speed. Best used at short range.

(Doton: Domu) – Earth Release: Earth Spear Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A (+10 to physical attacks)
Description: After performing the Snake hand seal the user will channel their chakra throughout their entire body, which then hardens their skin to a steel-like quality. This increases their defensive power to the utmost limits. The user’s skin also becomes much darker, an almost black colour. The destructive power of physical attacks is increased, making this a great, all purpose technique. But this technique when activated leaves the user vulnerable to lightning based techniques.
Note: Kakuzu bios can use this technique without the need for handseals

This was shown by Kakuzu first, when he destroyed the door to the Fire Temple in Konoha. You weave one handseal, and like the previous technique, release Earth chakra from every point in your body, as a burst, manipulating your chakra to harden your skin, which turns it into a blackish like colour. Same principle..you're vulnerable to lightning techniques C-Rank and above. You gain immense physical strength, and can use it to smash away earthen constructs, and +10 to physical attacks, so it's good to use when your opponent forces you in CQC.

For the first technique you gain power where you lose speed. It is nice because you can choose which area you would like to harden. Rather than lose all speed when having your whole body coated. You also gain damage in your taijutsu techniques.

The second technique hardens the skin and does not effect movement speed, but also increases damage to their taijutsu just like the first technique. However all lightning techs do a lot more damage if hit directly

They do the same amount of damage actually. Any questions?

Well because one is just creating stones that cover the skin, while the other is actually giving earth stone like properties to the skin

The damage is same, but the lightning takes a little more time to rip through the stones, and then hit the skin, whereas for the second jutsu, the lightning can rip through faster.

(Doton: Koka no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Hardening Technique
Rank: S
Type: Offense/Defence/Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 40 (-15 per turn)
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user releases a burst of earth chakra from all over his body. As he does this, a multitude of rock seemingly grows from his skin, forming a large, dense armour or rock much bigger and bulkier than the users original size. The armour can be manipulated and used to create extendable weapons to strike a target with like rudimentary swords or hammers. The downside is that the user cannot mold techniques from other elements apart from earth while sustaining the armor. The armor can be manifested in only specific parts of the body if the user so chooses.

My favorite Earth jutsu and the most commonly used too, among the masses. ;3
You gather a large amount of Earth chakra, and channel it throughout your body, releasing it from every single point of your body, as a 'burst', meaning you release a large amount of chakra all at once. As this happens, you convert your chakra to form Earth, and shape manipulate it to form giant rocks which protrude from your skin, and surround you to form an armor of sorts. This armor of rock is super bulky and is much greater than your original size. It is an excellent defense against explosions, giant water waves, powerful wind techniques; both cutting ones and wind blasts, as well as fireballs, fire streams, giant boulders, etc etc. However, you're vulnerable to A-Rank and above lightning techniques. You can also manipulate your chakra so as to form the armor only in specific parts of your body. Now, if you keep on fueling chakra to the armor, you can further shape manipulate the armor, using it an earth source to form giant hammers, swords, spikes and other weapons from it. Obviously enough, as you know, you can use this as a full body surge to release you out of genjutsu. The drawback is that you're slowed down, and if you form the armor all around your body, your vision of your opponent is hindered. Also, you can't mold other chakra natures, but only Earth. And, 15 points chakra points have to be spent every turn to maintain the armor.

It is just like the first protective earth jutsu where the user would create rocks that cover the body, but differing from the first, the rocks are much larger, and can be formed into weapons and such extending from the user. With the rocks being larger, there is a larger loss of mobility and the user can only use earth based jutsu while in this form

We've completed method 1 thus.
Now, time for method 2. Here's the basic description of the method. Reborn already asked you some stuff on this. Can you tell me the advantages and disadvantages of this method?

Method 2: Environmental Manipulation

This next method deals with techniques that utilize the earth around you. Unlike the last set of jutsu where you would use doton techniques from your earth chakra within you and manifest the earth itself, these techniques involve you releasing that doton chakra outwards into the environment for manipulation. You can essentially do the same as with the last set of techniques, create weapons and or objects, etc. However this set of techniques also gives one the ability to manipulate the structure of the environment around your opponent allowing raise and/or lower the earth, deform the earth to allow you to change the environment for your own purposes, etc. The general idea behind these techniques are channeling your doton chakra, outwards into the field, more than often you will utilize shape manipulation to get desired shapes and entities.
