Q. When using a Transformation with the Natural Aspect along with an Enhancement Power, the text says to “follow the standard rules for Stress Tests”. Does this mean that your Stress is calculated as if you were stacking an Enhancement Power on top of another Transformation, or as if you are solely using an Enhancement Power? Calculate your stress as if you were stacking an Enhancement Power on top of another Transformation. Natural only ignores the Transformation’s Stress Test when you use that Transformation alone. Alongside any Enhancement Power, the Transformation’s full Stress Test value is used.
Q. Do Variant Transformations count as a different and new Transformation for the sake of New Level of Power? Yes! They’re their own Transformation for such effects!
Q. Do free Energy Charges count towards the limit of Energy Charges you can benefit from on a single Signature Technique? Yes. Unless directly specified otherwise, a free Energy Charge counts against the limit described in the Energy Charge Maneuver.
Q. Do “when you deal damage” effects apply if you missed the attack, but dealt damage anyway through another effect such as Intense Blast? Yes. Bear in mind that you still have to successfully surpass the opponent’s Soak and Damage Reduction with the damage you dealt (and any effect that lets you deal damage despite missing will have you deal reduced damage, so it’s harder to do that).
Q. How do I destroy a planet?/How many Life Points does a planet have? The short answer is, simply, that there is no answer. While it’s true that destroying various celestial bodies is an iconic feat of strength in Dragon Ball for many, the truth is that such absolute levels of destruction are best left to the ARC’s discretion. Such events should be left to narrative impact, and not sought out. If your ARC wants to allow “planet busting”, they should inform you directly how to achieve such a feat in their campaign.
