Unspecified Deadliness Sidebar Issues

By Moribund, in Rules Questions

There are a few problems with this sidebar:

It is not at all clear when to use deadliness 8 for kihō. Does it apply to kihō techniques that involve an unarmed attack? Just on the immediate effect, or as long as the kihō is active? Is it appropriate for even the most basic, everyday use of kihō to have a higher deadliness than any weapon in the equipment list?

Falls. Some falls deal damage, but don't list a deadliness. If the damage exceeds a character's resilience, what deadliness do you use for the resulting critical?
