Technique Broken

This is a status effect that can instantly warp the advantage of battle from hunter to monster. When inflicted, all Hunter Arts and Hunting Style abilities are disabled temporarily and prevents any usage of them. Depending on which style and arts are used, the status can range from mildly damaging to severe. There is no known cure for this status other than waiting for it to expire.

The idea came from the fact that we, the hunters can break parts on monsters and weaken or completely disable abilities and attacks. This status aims to do that to hunters. It's pretty much revenge for the monsters from the ones that would use this status.

Lore behind this status ailment is that it distorts the hunter's focus and mind, making them lose awareness of how to perform Hunter Arts and use their Hunting Styles.

It can be inflicted in any form, be it by a melee attack, via a roar or even energies.

Several of my monsters would use this status, but I do not wish to reveal which ones. Other users would definitely use it once they have the ideas.

This status effect is a powerful one, and only monsters who have the capabilities of causing such damage can use it.

The icon is that of a blue misty core (like that of the Adept and Valor style), shattering outwards like glass with violet energy (the ailment) between the shards. Currently do not have an icon for it.
