Please help with wrist bending CAT 3dsmax

Arkideit

Hello everyone! I am quite a noob in terms of animation and rigging and im stuck. XD
I need to fix wrist bening issue on my character and for that i used extra bone on wrist joint. But i dont understand how make dependencies between them, so when plam bone will go up, wrist extra bone will rotate half of parent local radius and move little bit up in local transform. If this aproach is not that good i would gladly hear better ideas than mine

You could scrap the extra joint you wont needed it just relax some of vertex weights in the area you want to transition smoothly

I'm more familiar with Maya which uses Set Driven Keys.  This looks to behave similar and may be a solution for corrective bones with proper skinning in Max.  Hope this helps!
