This is a two-part downgrade thread where I intent to downgrade both the Nen multiplier of Ryu and Ko, as well as the speed of the verse. The first part will be dealing with the multipliers through Ryu and Ko specifically.
Let's start with the easy part, explaining why we currently believe the Ryu/Ko techniques even multiply one's strength in the first place is based around this statement from Bisky.
Ryu is stated to shift the amount of aura in a portion of your body, so it goes along with this line as welll.
I plan on adjusting the Multipliers to take into account the efficiency of each Nen Type, after all, Ryu and Ko are reinforcement techniques, and thus only Enhancers can use the 100% efficiency.
Let's focus on the matter at hand, right?
So, as @Shmeatywerbenmanjenson accidentally helped me realize is that, Nen efficiency does play a factor in how efficienct your Ko and Ryu is. Aka, only Enhancers have access to the 10 times multiplier. Funny.
We need to adapt their profiles to this chart:
Emmiters and Transmuters like Knuckle and Killua respectively would only have an efficiency of 80%, aka, a 8 times multiplier with Ko.
Manipulators and Conjurers like Zushi and Kurapika respectively would only have an efficiency of 60%, aka, a 6 times multiplier with Ko.
It says specialists have an efficiency of 40%, but I don't know if it has ever been confirmed to be the case, and Kurapika's ability seems to outright refute that. Pitou is a specialist but they haven't shown the capability of using Ryu or Ko.
Furthermore, the use of Ko leaves the body - originally several dozen times weaker than their nen strength - totally unguarded. So we need to figure out if we should divide their durability by 24, or dowscale them. But either way, they should get "lower in most of their body while using Ryu, drastically lower while using Ko"
