I'm am glad to see that the Project Korra staff is updating the plugin with new moves. However, I've noticed that some of these moves need a fix.
1. Firebending should not be as fast as air bending.
Now first off when a fire bender uses fire jet (in the show which this plugin is based off of), it is not super fast nor does it allow them to travel far distances. The only time a fire bender has been shown to move long distances is during Sozin's comet. (and even they couldn't go as fast as jet blast or jet blaze as Zuko was shown to easily keep track of Azula's movements and even counter them.) My advice would be to remove this move in the fire combo as it has never been shown to be this powerful in the show or to even go that fast with Sozin's comet fire bending. This completely changes fire's offensive style to that of an air benders style. It allows for wall of fire to be spammed effortlessly and it is overall too fast for a bending style that was not supposed to have a super fast speed boost.
2. Op fire blast copies.
Fire blast= 2 hearts (day) 3 second charge time. Lightning= 3.5 hearts 3.5 second charge time. Fire burst= 2 hearts 3.5 second charge time. These sound pretty balanced for strong moves, but you have made moves that are op carbon copies.
Discharge= 2 hearts no charge times. very little cool down. Combustion= 2-4 hearts no charge time, 6 second cool down (same as fire jet). (Now burn damage is another factor to put in, but all elements besides earth, which already has earth armor, can extinguish themselves in about less than a second.)
3. Fire breath is outrageous
The only thing I can say on this topic is what were the programmers thinking. Fire breath= short cool down, long range, constant stream, 3 hearts at the very least, disables fire jet and sometimes bending (might be a glitch), and burn damage that cannot be stopped. This move needs to be removed and or nerfed, as there is no reason why it should be this strong.
As a fire bender for two years, I'm very disappointed to see my favorite element become so unbalanced. Fire bending was once about precision and aiming, now it is just about using a super fast fire jet, and spamming fire breath and discharge. It is pitiful that the element requires no real skill anymore.
