RP General Discussion

Just want to know, John still can't intervene with gunshots, right? Or is this something with Shulk? :confused:


Does anyone want to know how to pick locks? :p

@ wriggs

Ima make it seem like the last part is the vision. Just FYI.

aw come on, I just saw the post XD

Ok, I´ll edit it, but seriously, the mantis already pierced the ninetailed fox´s back and chest

@Kristia
...


What did I just tell you a few post ago.

Shulk was to shield Kristia so the claw DOESN'T go through.

I saw the rp one first, so I wrote the story, then I saw the ooc one and deleted the post XD

I know, but in your post you say and quote

The mantis seemed to appear behind Renamon with such stealth not even Renamon's heightened aware could detect her.

"Consume, and adapt!" The mantis screeched as he pushed his claws through Renamon's chest.

it states that it already pierced the body

I was gonna make it as though it DIDN'T Happen yet.

In my next post I was gonna just use that as the vision of the future he would change (cause that's what Shulk does.) Renamon would get a healthy dose of Monado Shield, making her immune to something like that attack for...this time I'ma keep it combat canon and have the shield last for just that one attack.

ohh, now I understand

so the monado can do virtually anything to buff the warriors?

In short, its the swiss army knife of buffs that can block virtually anything.

Let me pull up the post I had.

Here it is

◾Enchant - Allows allies to damage Mechon for a time and boosts attack power.
I'm leaving this as is. I would have to dig up the increase in attack...

◾Buster - Damages enemies in a straight line. Mechon suffer double damage.
Giant Light Saber super attack. It's fairly powerful when it's not used against Mechon, but that's all.

◾Shield - Blocks Talent Arts of equal level or lower. Best used when Shulk has a vision.
I'll change this according to the situation, so I'll either follow game or cutscene canon

0:35


◾Speed - Improves evasion of a single ally.
In the cutscene it shows it affecting all allies. in game it's the description above...
I'm going with the cutscene

0:42


◾Purge - Damages single target at a distance. Removes Auras and Spike effects and inflicts Aura Seal.
Another one where the cutscene shows it paralyzing the foe, but in game it does what the description says.
This one I think I'll leave it as the combat description, and add a daze effect.

◾Eater - Damages enemies in front, removes all buffs and inficts Bleed.
Leaving this as is. It actually becomes more powerful with more buffs on the enemy.

◾Armour - Reduces all Physical and Ether damage to the party.
And this one leaving as is as well, It's like shield except not as potent

◾Cyclone - Damages all enemies around Shulk. Enemies suffering Break will be Toppled
This one inflicts a knockdown effect after moves like Air Slash or Stream Edge.

If it can block anything, I feel like it needs a long cooldown period in between.

@wriggs

In game canon, theres a cooldown that's dependent upon how many attacks you get in. it basically has a cool down of about...10-20 seconds, which in the game is an eternity (especially when you have another vision show up 5 seconds in...)

Of course, when ya don't have the monado arts, you start warning peeps. And if ya can't warn peeps cause the party gauge is empty, you start trying to see what arts you have that can change the future.

The Monado is the 100% efficient way of changing the future (as long as you don't screw up and select the wrong Art)
Then there's the improv. ways.

(and then when you change the future, this music plays)
