Greater Ki Blast (Combat)

By focusing your ki you can unleash a devastating attack on your opponent.

Prerequisites
Wis 17, Extra Ki, Improved Ki Blast, base attack bonus +8

Benefit
As a full-round action you may spend two ki points to inflict double damage on a successful ki blast. In addition this damage is tripled on a successful critical hit.

Author's Note: This feat is designed to emulate the super/hyper combos found within games like Street Fighter, particularly Ryu's Shinkuu Hadouken. I feel this feat allows the character a little more choice in the kind of ki blast he wants to fire off: does he sacrifice mobility and more ki points for extra damage and a higher crit modifier? This is also the first feat in the ki blast tree that I've applied a base attack bonus prerequisite for, so as to place its acquisition solidly within the 9-11 level range.
