I read the last few pages about "Tat is not strong anymore", "" the author nerfed him", "why there are so many Tat's counters?"
As a Mahouka and Tatsuya fan myself, I think this is natural. Ability wise, Tatsuya shines best as an assassin. With his Elemental Sight, he can locate his targets anywhere in the world via IDEA(Informational Dimension). Adding Trident(triple Decomposition), unprepared targets would likely die in instance. It doesn't matter if his enemies have ways to counter his magic. If they turned into dust before they even noticed that they were being targeted or before they could used their defensive abilities, who cares? There are tons of people with ways to fend off Mist Dispersal. So what? Tat can kill them before they can actually do anything to defend themselves; that is the truth. In the end, Tat abilities can be more effective if he uses them to snipe down his enemies from somewhere far away from enemies' reach. He is naturally a long-range specialist. Just leave malee combat to Erika and the likes. (yes! like what my signature's saying!)

IMO, Tats is so strong that you cannot get him in "conventional" ways. And just like some bosses RPG, in order to fight/restrain/challenge Tats, you will need a very specific "set up" and abilities.
Tats is already very OP, and in order to balance it out, he is heavily restricted. Thus, the "fun" part of this LN (in regard to character strength development) is how Tats struggles with those "abnormalities"

Give it up, the MB on the scale your talking about will never be practical. He would need the targeting aids of <Third Eye> to even target something that small. Plus, no matter how tiny it is it would be loud, possibly blinding, and produce a shockwave. Its still a bomb no matter how small. Not something you want to be anywhere near when it goes off.

The only thing Third Eye does is give him visual targeting since if something is kilometers away he can't see it with his own eyes and with Third Eye it lets him see it then he can use Elemental Sight from that point on to target it, if we asusme that in theory there is something that is within his vision he doesn't need Third Eye. |

Also Tatsuya is practical, wont be a simple granade a much more simple solution? He used one against Lina, if presed to reveal a secret magic he should be able to created an explosion with flash cast.
For me the duel was in order to reintroduce Tomitsuka, tatsuya new classmate and possibly new allied when things get fisical in the next confrontation (since Erika and Leo would problaby have less screentime, beign in other class an all) |

As for Regrowth affecting the armour or not, isn't regrowth the reverse of decomposition which did work against the armour after he started gathering the psions ?(it was still made of psions) |

A lot of this discussion can be cleared up with more detailed reading (i.e. fact checking) or in some cases, more detailed explanation by the author (there's both).
As for the whole thing about Tats and nerfs. There isn't much around it. The dude is nerfed by the author by various methods to rebalance the story. IMO, it's likely that as the scale of the events enlarge, the author will gradually take off more and more of Tats' limitations/restrictions. It's like playing a RPG with a level 90 character in the prologue. As the chapters go by and the skill of the enemies increase, the gap between the MC and the enemies will shorten. To make it at least a playable game, the producer would have to limit many, many things to make a level 90 character on the same plain as a level 25 boss. |

It affects an Eidos. By definition it has to be Systematic.
Magics that affect Psions by definition have to be Non-Systematic. Quote:

Regrowth does not fit in those three categories, therefore it is Systematic Magic. Just remember that just because something is Systematic Magic, doesn't mean it's easy to classify what parts of which category are being used (unless the author tells us, like with Decomposition). |
