Well according to the official DB wiki on Body Split for Namekians:

"Fission: The reverse of fusing, a single Namek can also split into different copies of himself. One instance of this ability being used was when Kami purged all the evil within himself by casting it off into a separate being, resulting in his evil twin brother King Piccolo. Both Nameks were able to read each others thoughts, and if one died the other would as well. Because of the drawbacks this ability should not be considered a perfect fission as they, in all considerations, are still one being. However, if one half were to die and give life to another Namek, the other half would remain intact. Just before King Piccolo died he spawned his final son Piccolo, and Kami did not perish, though it should also be noted Piccolo is his own parent reborn in the form of a son and very well may have been the only reason Kami lived."

It states that when splitting into two separate if one dies, the other half does as well. I like the idea that if you use the Body Split at any time you increase your chances for dying taking either a physical, mental, etc attack that is life threatening means you lose on the spot. Meaning its a special one-time-deal in a fight. I say we change this to as the above.

Oh and another thing the Body Split is actually for Namekians having it on the list for Aliens is stupid. As the Alien are listed of/as any 'other' race not from here aka DBZ Universe. Personally I think the Alien description and power needs to be changed:

"Alien - Most diverse, powerful individuals that have benefits of other races outside of this Universe. You get to choose TWO and ONLY TWO powers/abilities from a race(one you've make up or one you found on your own i.e. like for mine I listed Anthrax as a Alien/Android and the Alien race Liandri) once this is had been decided we ask that you speak with the admins/mods that will critique or nerf it to a reasonable extent if possible." that what it should be. At least in my opinion. Honestly the Body Split belongs else where and the Light Eater and Distant Cousin one are no good. We have Namekians and Half Breeds for that.
