Been busy with finals and getting home, my responses will be far more frequent now. Sorry for the wait.

---

Strong points

- the jutsu, based off the description, make more than one bolt at a time, which can increase likelihood of landing
- it also allows for up to mid range in terms of distance, which means a simple way to pressure the opponent from afar

Weak points

- the jutsu, itself, is incredibly weak
- straightforward, on top of being weak, means it'd be easy to counter

Combinations-strategies
- Starch Syrup Capture Field; it'd restrict enemy movement, whilst also increasing the likelihood/power of the jutsu
- Swamp of the Underworld; it'd restrict enemy movement or force them upwards, where they'd get struck by the bolts

Ways to counter this technique
- most offensive techniques can at least negate the jutsu, if not outright over power it
- barricades can also be used, though D-rank earth barriers can be destroyed

Questions
- none

---

Strong points

- can be used to shock the opponent(s) with surprise, and also destabilize low level earth techniques

Weak points

- limited range and requires hand contact with the ground, which for such a weak technique can be excessive

Combinations-strategies
- Starch Syrup Capture Field; it'd restrict enemy movement, whilst also increasing the likelihood/power of the jutsu

Ways to counter this technique
- Wind Release: Wind Stream Technique; it'd let the user safely and quickly escape to the air

Questions
- none​

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

There's actually no real difference. Lol

(Raiton: Raigeki no Yoroi) - Lightning Release: Lightning Strike Armour
Rank: C
Type: Offense/Defence
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user surrounds themselves with electricity. The intense electric field protects them by electrocuting anyone who comes into contact with it, but only works for one attack.

(Raiton: Iwa Nadare) - Lightning Style: Stone Avalanche
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Descripton: By forming hand seals Snake → Upside down Tiger → Hands clapped together when near a cliff , the user causes stone and rock to become dislodged and rain down on anyone below it by releasing a wave of electrical energy which weakens the rock and makes it fall as it crumbles. However, this is extremely location-based and needs to be done uphill of a mountain for it to work.

(Raiton: Shuurai Rappa no Jutsu) - Lightning Release: Lightning Strike Horn Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 30
Description: The user will raise their hand infront of them like a sword. It will begin glowing in a pale yellow before releasing bolts of lightning in the shape of a horn that spread outwards, allowing it to attack multiple targets.

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

Strong points
- a fast acting technique that can serve as a deterrent against reckless moves in close-quarter engagements
- in conjecture with freeform taijutsu, this technique can be a solid counter to enemy taijutsu and the likes.

Weak points
- fairly limited in application, seeing as most incoming attacks will still land with full impact on the user

Combinations-strategies
- in conjecture with any taijutsu based techniques, including freeform

Ways to counter this technique
- don't engage in any fighting that involves actually coming into bodily contact with the user
- use wind based techniques that can serve as insulators to negate any risk of bodily harm

Questions
- none

---

Strong points
- can be used as a distraction and force the opponent to reposition

Weak points
- extremely location-based in application
- requires hand-seals on top of being limited to certain locations

Combinations-strategies
- Swamp of the Underworld; it'd restrict enemy movement or force them upwards, where they'd get by dislodged stones

Ways to counter this technique
- simply make sure to be at the same elevation as the user, or any flight-based techniques can help

Questions
- none

Type: Offensive
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 15 (-5 per turn)
Damage points: 30
Description: The user will channel their lightning chakra into their sword to increase its cutting capabilities, and then levitate it in front of them. They will then multiply the sword creating two extra physical copies which are then all manipulated to spin rapidly and are controlled to fly towards and cut through the opponent/s through hand gestures. While controlling the weapons, the user cannot mold chakra for other techniques and needs to keep focus.

[Pekoms]

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

Strong points
- useful for kenjutsu encounters

Weak points
- must maintain the technique, which prevents other jutsu from being used
- this technique is more or less a waste, if the opponent uses a wind jutsu, you'll be forced to cancel it
- having to rely on hand gestures means that even standard ninja tools can't be used in conjecture


Combinations-strategies
- nothing

Ways to counter this technique
- all sorts of jutsu can either overpower the user, or force them to break from their focus

Questions
- none

Strong points

- a stronger version of Lightning Release: Lightning Surge
- can be used to shock the opponent(s) with surprise, and also destabilize low level earth techniques

Weak points

- limited range and requires hand contact with the ground, which for such a weak technique can be excessive

Combinations-strategies
- Starch Syrup Capture Field; it'd restrict enemy movement, whilst also increasing the likelihood/power of the jutsu

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

(Raiton: Raiton no Heki ) – Lightning Release: Lightning Release Wall
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary, Defence
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user manipulates their chakra while doing the Ox hand seal and then releases it in front of him whilst holding their hands out. By doing this, the user generates a wall of lightning energy that can defend against certain techniques. The user can use this defence to shock enemy targets who attempt close range combat and deliver massive shocks to anything that comes in contact with it.

(Raiton: Reijingu Sandā) - Lightning Style: Raging Thunder
Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user creates a half shaped dome of lightning that can be pushed forward in a similar way to a "wave of lightning" attack. It has both paralyzing and shocking properties as well as physical momentum.

 

[Pekoms]

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

Strong points
- serves as a great counter to most taijutsu attacks, and at the least, a good deterrent

Weak points
- requires not just a hand-seal, but also their hands in front for what seems like the duration of the technique
- seems to be a selective defense, which based on my question, may reveal the technique to be excessively situational

Combinations-strategies
- in conjecture with taijutsu

Ways to counter this technique
- offensive wind techniques of C-rank and higher should overpower it
- possibly metallic weapons, upon noticing the defense and leaping back

Questions
- what exactly can and cannot pass through the wall?

---

Strong points
- fairly versatile and simple to use; it can be an outright offensive technique and also a defensive measure

Weak points
- the user must be wary of being attacked from behind, below, or above

Combinations-strategies
- in conjecture with standard taijutsu, as a surprise offense or defense

Ways to counter this technique
- if one reacts fast enough, Wind Release: Wind Stream can be used to quickly disengage from the area

Questions
- none​

 

[Shady Doctor]

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

I'd say anything within rank that is solid and not energy. So fire wouldn't be blocked, though wind at a lower rank would. Earth would get blocked. Projectiles such as kunai, swords etc.

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

Okay then, thanks for the clarification.​

[Pekoms]

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

Nope. You should try centering your posts. ;p

Strong points
- simple and an effective way to increase the power of one's taijutsu

Weak points
- relies on one's physical prowess and taijutsu skill

Combinations-strategies
- in conjecture with strong-fist taijutsu

Ways to counter this technique
-Wind Style: Beast Tearing Gale Palm

Questions
- none

---

Strong points
- fairly fast when delivering it's power, and strikes from above

Weak points
- requires clouds, which means in places with no clouds or enclosed areas with ceilings, the technique cannot be used
- it doesn't instantly strike the opponent, one must first send lightning into the sky, which is easy to spot and prepare for

Combinations-strategies
- Starch Syrup Capture Field; it'd restrict enemy movement, whilst also increasing the likelihood/power of the jutsu
- Swamp of the Underworld; it'd restrict enemy movement or force them upwards, where they'd get struck by the bolts

Ways to counter this technique
- Wind Release: Wind Sickle Armor

Questions
- none

---

Strong points
- boasts considerable range and because stones are used as a medium for the lightning, light defenses are pointless

Weak points
- requires several hand-seals, which provides the opponent with time to make a quick offensive counter
- depending on the location, bringing forth the large pillars may be impossible to accomplish

Combinations-strategies
- Starch Syrup Capture Field; it'd restrict enemy movement, whilst also increasing the likelihood/power of the jutsu

Ways to counter this technique
- Earth Release: Hiding like a mole technique

(Raiton: Kangekiha) – Lightning Release: Wave of Inspiration
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Long
Chakra cost: 20
Damage point: 40 (+20 to Water Technique)
Description: After doing the Rabbit → Dog → Boar → Ram → Rat hand seals, the user generates a large amount of lightning from their hands, which can then be either released in an unfocused manner or passed through conductive materials to improve the electrical power of the technique, namely in conjunction with Water Techniques. In fact, certain users have showed that its possible to, if the user has the ability to mold both Water and Lightning chakras at the same time (for example, Darui who has Storm Release), unleash this particular technique at the same time as they exhale/spit some water technique (which needs to consist of a stream of water), combining both in a seemingly consecutive move. Other ninjas will need to use a clone or an ally for the same effect.

Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40

Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user raises their hands to the air, charging lightning. He will then unleash the lightning energy at the enemy target in the form of a lightning bolt.

[Pekoms]

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

Strong points
- requires no hand-seals and provides decent range

Weak points
- both hands are used to maintain the technique, which means other jutsu cannot be used
- even taijutsu involving hands and weapon tools is impossible to use during the technique

Combinations-strategies
- can be used in conjecture with taijutsu involving legs and feet

Ways to counter this technique
- Wind Style: Pressure Damage

Questions
- none

---

Strong points
- requires no hand-seals and affords some offensive power at moderate range with some control

Weak points
- though the hound moves fairly fast, it is easy to identify and thus one of the less subtle lightning techniques

Combinations-strategies
- Starch Syrup Capture Field; it'd restrict enemy movement, whilst also increasing the likelihood/power of the jutsu

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

(Raiton: Raiton Kage Bunshin) - Lightning Release: Lightning Shadow Clone
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: User creates a Shadow Clone of himself but made from lighting chakra. When the clone gets hit he will return to its previous state of pure lighting chakra. The clone has a physical substance and therefor is able to use ninjutsu and taijutsu techniques as well as he has all the normal moves the user has.
Note: Can only use lightning based techniques up to B rank.

(Chō Biburāto Raitontō) - Super Vibrating Lightning Release Sword
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A (+15 to kenjutsu and standard attacks)
Description: The user channels their lightning chakra into a blade, increasing its vibrating frequency and giving it more cutting power than standard wind techniques.

 

[Pekoms]

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

Strong points
- it has a great deal of potential usage in combat, seeing as it can use taijutsu, kenjutsu, some ninjutsu, and raiton up to B-rank.
- another good thing is that when the clone disperses, it returns to its lightning state and can strike an unsuspecting opponent, they would need to be careful when using taijutsu and kenjutsu against the clone.

Weak points
- there's no particular flaw with this technique, but I guess its lasting for one blow is somewhat unfavorable.
- also, it's not as useful as standard shadow clones in most situations, especially when engaged in long-range combat.

Combinations-strategies
- when using the clone in close-combat, I'd have it attempt to restrict the opponent's movements a bit and quickly follow up with Water Release: Stormy Blockade, which would damage the opponent and the clone, causing the latter to disperse into lightning to enhance the water technique.

Ways to counter this technique
- a swift and moderately strong wind technique would easily be capable of dispersing the clone if it lands, though it'd be best to make sure its not a technique used too close to the lightning shadow clone.

Questions
- none

---

Strong points
- it's fast, requiring no hand-seals, and allow the user to pierce low level barricades between the user and the opponent and potentially strike them through it. I believe the blades can also be thrown whilst still channeling the technique, which could be useful

Weak points
- the lightning is channeled through a blade, which is kinda limiting. In most cases, the user is still just as open to attacks

Combinations-strategies
- in conjecture with a lightning shadow clone. The clone would engaged in short-range combat with a sword and rely primarily on kenjutsu whilst activating the technique.

Ways to counter this technique
- Wind Release: Vacuum Blade

Questions
- can the blades be thrown whilst still using the technique?​

 

[Shady Doctor]

Re: [Raiton/Doton] - Pekoms

Well, I would say yes. The concept of the jutsu, if not the exact same jutsu, is exactly what B did against Kisame; Used super vibrating lightning in a pencil to raise its piercing potential before he threw it at him. So yes..
