[ZhengTann]

None but Council shall post here.​

Bind, Clamp, Fire Spin, Infestation, Magma Storm, Sand Tomb, Wrap, and Whirlpool have their BAP increased by four (4) and inflict Triple (3x) damage at the end of each of the target Pokemon's actions.

Bind, Clamp, Fire Spin, Infestation, Magma Storm, Sand Tomb, Wrap, and Whirlpool have their BAP increased by four (4) and inflict Triple (3x) damage at the end of each of the target Pokemon's actions. Only one (1) move of the above list can inflict Triple (3x) damage at a time.

Bind, Clamp, Fire Spin, Infestation, Magma Storm, Sand Tomb, Wrap, and Whirlpool have their BAP increased by four (4) and inflict Double (2x) damage at the end of each of the target Pokemon's actions.

b) Implement Zt's proposal
c) Implement neither

a)

Texas' requires a bit of syntax to clarify which moves' residual damage is to be buffed, and something weird is bound to happen when the buffed residual damage expires. Mine is simpler quality-of-life-wise ;)

I'm not convinced it wouldn't still be broken

While i really like Texas' proposal, i feel Zt's idea is better at hurting the immediate effect of combos that increase the DPA.

For example, Constrict + Bind followed by another trapping move deals 14 DPA on Texas' idea, but 12 on Z, and 16 to both on a third trapping move.

Ultimately, Zt's dealing a bit more damage IF the user commits heavily is something that i do not mind.
