I'm going to put my two cents in. I took the weak point sighted trait with a, close to, starter level character at the time (30 sd earned). I was warned that it would be useless at higher levels but I still feel that is wrong. It doesn't matter how much sd I have; that trait will always be useful to me. I think it all depends on how creative you are with it. What if an opponent had a titanium ship that someone couldn't break by normal means with their strength? Then my trait will be very useful, wont it?

So say you took hardened fighter. What is the purpose of taking it? To toughen up your arms and legs. Why would you do that? Because I want to punch/kick someone harder. Does it hurt more getting hit by something as hard as iron rather than a regular man's knuckle? HELL YES.

In all honesty the only thing I see wrong with this trait not scaling is that people cant take consistently take advantage of it and start blocking swords and shit barehanded because, "My skin is as hard as your sword lol." I am pretty sure using that iron skin as a defensive measure is not how the trait was originally intended at all. If it was intended as a defensive measure then wouldn't it make more sense for the skin to cover the entire body rather than just the striking apparatus? This is an offensive trait and will always be useful. Why should it scale? So you can take advantage of it and suddenly have a steel body for only one trait? I am pretty sure the supa supa no mi gives someone a steel body for 4 traits. You get what you pay the trait for imo. I don't like the concept of scaling at all. I think your traits are what you make of them.

But see, the idea is that supa also scales. Diamond fruit too and various other traits.

Again as dark said, it's just an idea and we're not as stupid to make something worth 1 trait be on par with a T4 df. Again relax, might just be a passing thing.

I'm curious as to why Diamond scales. .-.

This has been discussed, and we're nearly at a consensus. Give it a few more days, and we'll have an official stance on this.

Until then, just rest assured that Hardened Fighter won't be made any worse/better than the alternatives.

hardened fighted giving you hardened arms and legs would allow you to negate the self damage you take when using impact dials
