The black star Dragon Balls were only active because Piccolo and God merged. If Piccolo splits off any part of him it'd render the balls inert.

LSBK, you can also read Play-by-Post Games for more info as that is the kind of RP we're talking about.

What if he were to split off Nail? Technically, the Namekian remaining would be the same as the one who made the balls...

But aren't people always worried that the dragon balls will be destroyed accidentally?

Or is that just the Abridged series?

Piccolo brings it up in the Boo arc. Warns Gotenks not to destroy them while fighting Boo.

[up][up] if Nail wasn't lying, there isn't a Nail to split off now.

I recall Vegeta chastising Nappa for blowing up a city without provocation because of the possibility that there was a dragonball there that he might've blown up.

he later orders Krillin to break a ball to prevent the Ginyus from bringing the full set to Freeza.

So, Vegeta certainly thinks they're breakable, at least.

Well, Vegeta didn't even know what they were before Raditz happened so he was just entertaining the idea that they could be breakable with Nappa. With Krillin, he was just hoping that they were breakable. He has no way of knowing whether or not they're actually breakable.

I remember an episode of the original dragon ball anime where General Blue shatters a fake dragon ball to prove that it's fake, saying that the real things are indestructible, but that might have been filler.

My various fanfics.

I think I need to just read the Dragon Ball manga so I can answer the unspoken question when someone says something from Dragon Ball may have just been filler.

Beerus is just awesome in Xenoverse. After the villains brainwash everybody else in the game, he just up and nopes it. cool

You know that there's an edit button, right?

But yes, Beerus is very awesome. One minutes, he's talking all serious like and the next minute he's all "Meow meow *cleans face*." Beerus is truly the best.

Goku can also No-Sell Demigra's hypnotism. It involves being a God.

Also, your Mary Sue can do it after the Supreme Kai stops Demigra from doing it once, or so she claims anyway, and since Demigra doesn't try it again, I'm inclined to agree with her.

I hope Xenoverse's follow up can get a better plot. Something more... involved. I dunno, maybe having multiple choices and actually being able to build relationships with the characters. I mean, getting friendship points with your Master is all well and good, but I want a more expanded system so I can truly bring my fanfiction to life.

Obvs. That's why I want Vegetto to be a Master in the next Xenoverse. You can't get any more Mary Sue than if you're throwing around Final Kamehamehas like candy.

And speaking about the Kamehameha...

Why do so many people pronounce it "Ka mea mea"? It's not like the characters don't scream the proper pronounciation every time they use it.

Well, most of the time they say it slowly, syllable by syllable. I guess it's hard to remember the actual pronunciation that way?

Female Small Saiyan is the strongest ki user in the game, Saiga. But using kids is also weird to me.

You don't have to, height only affects speed and health. Also, female Earthlings are stronger, even if the Saiyan uses Super Vegeta. Saiyan girls are better at using mentor ultimates due to higher Z-assist chance, though.

You're completely forgetting the fact that, since Potential Unlocked isn't a readily available transformation for CaC Mary Sues, there's literally none that can even come close to a saiyan's ability with Ki Blasts.

A human might be able to deal more damage with the first shot, but they're spent afterwards. A Saiyan will just go Super Vegeta/Saiyan 2 and throw a dozen Death Balls at you.

Maybe if you didn't invest in ki at all. Auto ki regen is amazing.

Auto ki regen is great.

But it doesn't beat not spending Ki in the first place.

Though you can get pretty close.

[up][up] I find that I have to stop and recharge far more often as a Saiyan. And Super Vegeta takes an ultimate slot, making the Saiyans much less versatile.

Here's a basic guide.
