      losing dream fights

      For some reason when I get in dream fights my punches feel like I'm hitting my opponent with feathers. I'm still fast enough to avoid actually losing but not winning in my own dream is just as bad I think

      I think it has to do with Sleep Paralysis. Sleep Paralysis tries to make you not move a lot, even in your dreams. So when you are doing things that involve a lot of force or movement in dreams, your body will persist. That's what I've heard anyway.

      If you keep loosing with fists and feet use guns, and Kamehameha's.
      I had the same problem in a dream and I just used my hand as a gun and said bang,bang,bang, and he died.

      I don't usually have a problem like that in my dreams. I guess it helps if you've actually had training or have been in more than a few fights in RL. Or, you know, just watch a bunch of Kung Fu movies.

      Of course, there are so many other options available to you besides just using your bare hands. Although, I have to admit, taking out DCs in one or two bone shattering blows is incredibly satisfying.

      Edit: Some more helpful information: Don't focus on the punches and the techniques themselves. If you do, you're probably gonna end up screwing it up somehow. Just let your fists, feet, and/or blade flow naturally and focus on what the end result will be.

      lol naiya, I'm not good with advice.
      Anyway, try other weapons? Or try what Mzzkc said, don't focus on the punch, just on the effect it will cause. Either that or instead of punching grab them and smash them to the wall/ground/whatever, if you are already fast, why not make use of it to toy with them?
