Shaping combat is sorta cool, but I can't imagine even trying to do it in any format other than play-by-post -- unless you really do go with "I inflict social problems" as your attack.  (I love the Charm names, though.)<br/><br/>Anyway, Pixiekitn, here's the basic Aspect of Earth strategy:<br/>1) Ox-Body Technique.<br/>2) Really heavy armor.<br/>3) Really big sword (or spear).<br/>4) Five-Dragon-Force Blow.<br/>5) Falling Star Manuever.<br/>6) Combo of #3 and #4, to hit enemy with #2.<br/>7) Repeat #6 until enemy ceases moving.  (Then do it one more time just to be sure.)
