Hozuki clan complaints

[shoritochi]

The Hozuki clan is one of my all time favorites because of their secret jutsu, the hydrification technique. The background you created for them doesn't complement the Naruto universe, and to some degree even contradicts current information. I wanted to know if this was static, or if it was going to be updated sometime soon. 


P.S Their weakness can be offset. In the anime Shikimaru is shown summoning water using a summoning scroll. Should the Hozuki be so water reliant, how would you go about nerfing this loophole?

We do not follow the current timeline of the Narutoverse here. We are set in the same world, but none of the characters introduced in Naruto, have existed here. This allows us not to be pigeon-holed but canon lore when we want to try something new or cool, that doesn't perfectly align with the show.

That Clan was constructed when there was absolutely nothing known about how the clan worked other than the users turning themselves into water to avoid physical damage. It is in need of an update/revamp, but I wouldn't expect it to follow anything currently in the naruto canon, in terms of the background.

As for your last question, what's to Nerf? there are techniques that allow an individual to summon rain, and spit up a lake. If a Hozuki has such skills then good for them. There's nothing to nerf, and it's not really a loophole either, it's something to be expected of someone composed of water as their main body.

The way these things work on site is if you see a way to get stronger combining techniques with your clan's abilities to give yourself an edge in battle. IF you are willing to put the work in and train those things than you are more than welcome to do so. In fact seeing the combination of what people can come up with to become formidable is half the fun of the site.
