So if Lo-Pan is of low flesh...
I dunno what that means but it was a fun coincidence that I just happened to watch Big Trouble in Little China with the Kurt Russell & John Carpenter commentary right before logging on for the first time when Hi-Pan ran in this rotation.
This would be my first props to Hi-Pan after a long history of no props. I even enjoyed the Hi-Pan fights.
Even being in the proper mood, there was too much NttG in this Custom. It's a small complaint but worth mentioning. If there was no NttG except for when it's needed during the Hi-Pan fight, it would still be comparable in speed to some of the other Customs that give similar rewards and I think it would make the Alurt funner.
The "death circles" can be somewhat random, but generally a new one will appear after the old one completely phases. It's wise to be blocking and moving then, and be ready to react quickly. But I'd use a defensive passive for the alert and heal one self super fast after escaping a ying/yang.
It really helps a lot when the person with agro moves out of the spinning circle thing when it appears and preferably in the direction of the *bwonnng* bell.
