Indirect Kraata Power combinations

Dear Greg I know Makuta can only use one kraata power at a time but can they use them indirectly in combinations? For example could a Makuta use accuracy to find the weak spot in a building and then he fires a disintegration blast at the weak spot to take it down? Another scenario I would like to ask about is can a Makuta use their fragmentation power on a rock and then teleport it away before it explodes in order to make a grenade like attack? The last scenario I would like to ask is would it be possible for a Makuta who wants to defeat some enemies by using chain lightning but he could not get a shot due to the enemies’s defenses, use plant control to make a plant grow inside the enemies’ defenses and fire chain lightning through the plant’s root system in order to attack his enemies?

Each of these ideas would be situational. Accuracy + Disintegration would not work that way - Accuracy does not give the Makuta a supernatural sense of where to hit, it just makes the projectiles hit. For Teleportation + Fragmentation, nothing as far as I understand indicates that Fragmentation can be delayed. Makuta can Fragment from a distance, however. I also believe that objects must be in physical contact with the Makuta for them to teleport. The Plant Control + Chain Lightning scenario would work because the plant doesn’t disappear when the Makuta disables the power.

A plant will typically ground electricity tho

Will it? Idk how that works, I thought it was like magic lightning or something. I figured that since it was Chain Lightning the bolt would pass all the way through the plant and to whomever’s on the other side.

The first stage of a kraata of accuracy states that they instinctively find weak points and if a Makuta does that I doubt they would just forget where is the weak spot when they use a different power afterwards.

Also I believe Teridax teleported the Vahi and Vakama away when the Vahi was far away and not being held by Vakama, so a Makuta does not need to make contact with a object to teleport it. Although I suppose a Makuta could fire a blast of fragmentation and then teleport it towards their enemy before it hits its target like how Teridax did that to the Shadow One’s eyebeams.

Oh, I see, that makes sense. In that case, the Makuta could derive the weakest point of a structure, but he wouldn’t be able to perfectly hit it with another power.

It seems like you are answering your own question again… so why ask it?

To get confirmation from Greg, but alas it does not seem to be likely to happen even though this is the ask Greg section.

Yeah, the Ask Greg category has become somewhat moot in the past year or two. He was last seen in February, and before that not since early 2020. You may be better off just headcanonizing it, or just going off what other people have tried to answer with.

I don’t know why this needs confirmation. It seems pretty obvious that it’d work, provided the examples made logical sense.
