NIN: New Jin+Chi+Ten/ Chi+Jin+Ten Ninjutsu?

[SamSmoot]

If you can apply Huton with the press of a button, then what is the benefit of doing the three action version?

Huraijin also does 200 damage at melee range, so you can't use it to build your Huton before the fight starts. I assume it will fail if you don't have a target in range.

Oh I think you misunderstood. I was defending a one button version of Huton since it's a joke to apply and maintain at this point. So people thinking that changing it from a mudra to a single button press is removing complexity are kidding themselves.

^ Sadly, it's been a joke since Armor Crush (or, at the latest, the loss of Duality and Dancing Edge, in that Armor Crush then had fewer spaces for optimal use and required more thoughtful margining).
