How Heat Crash Works
Heat Crash’s power depends on the weight ratio between the user and the target:
- 1× if target is ≥½ of user’s weight
- 2× if target is ≥⅓ but <½ of user's weight
- 3× if target is ≥¼ but <⅓ of user's weight
- 4× if target is ≥⅕ but <¼ of user's weight
- 5× if target is <⅕ of user's weight

How Heat Crash Works
Heat Crash’s power depends on weight ratios:

| ≥ ⅓ but < ½ | 2× | 120 BP |
| ≥ ¼ but < ⅓ | 3× | 180 BP |
| ≥ ⅕ but < ¼ | 4× | 240 BP |
| < ⅕ of user’s weight | 5× | 300 BP |
