Who Knows Tutaminis? I Wanna Learn

[Oka Osaa]

This is a great statement. Everyone needs to use the basics more often.

Someone is wearing armor? Use Telekinesis to crush their bones inside of the armor.
Someone is shooting slugthrowers at you? Use Force Push to blast them away.
Someone is being held hostage? Use Force Pull to disarm the criminal.
Need a bridge? Use Telekinesis to tear down a tree, pole, or other object to make one.
Don't wanna lean over to tie your shoes? Telekinesis.

I like how you made force abilities seems so much better

Other than TK, Zatt's only been using sensory powers and that weird 'transformation' thing I made up for him.

Only reason I wanna learn tutaminis is because I'm gonna start throwing Zatt up in way more combat threads than I usually do with my characters. He'll need more than TK and a bunch of gadgets.

That's because they're astounding abilities and nobody uses logic when applying them. Yoda always said that the Force can do anything, yet you must learn and master the arts of the Force to use its gifts.

[member="Zatten Black"]

You don't even need Tutaminis to deflect a blade. Specialize in TK.

Blade is coming at you? Use a Force Push to blast it away.
Need to divert momentum? Use Force Pull to throw them off balance.
Want to keep them at a distance? Force Push again.

He means when a saber blade is too close to do anything. That's when tutaminis comes in

Distance doesn't mean much anyways. Force Push/Pull and TK can still be used in close quarters.

 

[Dagos Terrek]

for some reason this has been one of my favorite threads to read this week.

 

[Oka Osaa]

[member="Dagos Terrek"] why thank you don't get that very often

[member="Lok Jorunn"] you are correct but I have to differ with force pushing blaster bolts away. I don't think that's possible unless I've missed something. But obviously, you know what you're talking about so I won't try to outsmart your intelligence

That's true. I've been using Force Blast and TK to throw enemies (and an ally or two) around. It's helpful, but no good against Trakata, for example. Too unpredictable.

 

[Tiland Kortun]

*makes note to learn tutaminis after Master level*

Why? Because Tiland is a very specific character and has his own self-given restrictions above and beyond that of most Jedi. No lightsaber or lethal weapons of any kind. No purely-offensive Force skills. His main combat focus will be unarmed, imbued staff, and non-lethal Force skills. His preference is to take injuries rather than give it, since he's an Anzat and will heal from just about everything anyways. It's balance. Sacrificing the normal skills for other ones. It's the only way any of characters will go anywhere magnificent with anymore than skills from the movie for the most part, with some other selectively chosen ones for alternate Force traditions.

But yeah, honestly, TK used well is enough to protect against most things. No fancy tricks required. It's also one of the more versatile skills as previously noted.

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

i think this thread is hilarious to read

 

[Tiland Kortun]

Then I have been a success. I thank you. ^_^

 

[Zatten Black]

This is the single most reasoned discussion I've seen on this board, actually. That's a little bit sad.

 

[Oka Osaa]

I hope to be learning tutaminis. And for those who wonder why Im being an idiot, you don't have to always look forward to being corrupt. If you fight for the light side, corruption will lose. If you disagree, I understand but honestly, Jedi sacrifice. May the force be with you and to the light side, *clings glass*

 

[Tiland Kortun]

Cheers with that then, mate. Hope it goes well for you and you enjoy it. *clings glass*

Maybe in time Tiland can learn some of it from Oka then.

 

[Oka Osaa]

Maybe.. maybe.. if it succeeds. The process is risky but I think you can fight it. You gotta be stronger in the force most likely but anyways. Cheers back at ya

 

[Tiland Kortun]

If there's a thing Tiland excels at, it's fighting personal battles. As for being stronger in the Force, he has hundreds of years to live. Time is his ally.

 

[Garza]

you are correct but I have to differ with force pushing blaster bolts away. I don't think that's possible

You can't they are pure forms of energy. Use your saber to deflect it, or simply dodge it. Use a blaster resistant armor bracer to block it. You don't NEED to absorb the energy of it. If you ask me, I would have never put the power in the force because it's mainly reserved for people who do major force battles rather than saber battles.

I have an alt who uses Force Lighning a lot. and to learn how to absorb the lightning so it would not hurt him, he had to learn about a knight level's worth of Tutaminis. That's because he needed to so he could more proficiently use force lightning. And he has gotten into a few battles over force powers where he has had to use it. But it was a total of three threads out of the like 400 that I have put him in.

No real use.

 

[Oka Osaa]

Hmm, each FU is different. I think I'll use it one day when I learn it. When you learn tutaminis, its not a reliable force power. More like a sticky situation kind. With that being said, take someone like yoda on the season 6 finale. He force levitated or grabbed(forgot) anakin and used tutaminis at the same time. Sticky situation

 

[Matsu Ike]

See I am lucky, go polyhistor you get to be okay at everything and have variety to really trip people up.

 

[Aika Kawakami]

Or, just be like me and Xander's alt and use nothing but force powers.
