@ S121
Maybe I'm just trying too hard. I thought when I was talking about Eleos before, I came up with similar concepts, but I swore they all got countered when I proposed them.
I don't know...I'm too tired now to worry about it and I feel better after venting. =w= ok
@ Katrix
aye, I understand the weakness concept and the how to
but then...snipers.
how would you play out that scenario, where a sniper, 2,000 meters away (about 18 football fields) takes aim at a character. how would you play that out?
anyway...
here I go again with tryint to stop posting so I study proper for finals.
night peeps

I'll admit, some of it is blind faith that the other person won't screw you over, but sometimes you just gotta trust the other person that they will play as honestly as they can.
Rest easy, Cucoo. You just might be thinking too much about it. :p
Also, what ides are you referencing?

Tbh I think at one point I had thought of ideas of how to take down characters that were similar to what you mentioned in your prior post. Except when i said it, they were slightly different from how you described them and they met immediate resistance and were shot down.
Faulty memory probably.

Do you mean the toxin, or when you were talking about the sniper part?
With Chung, his class has a particular weakness, but I can't look it up right now, due to my internet being slow.
As for Dante, he's just hard. It's my understanding that stealth is the best way to go. Try using a railgun rifle, or a Gauss, or coil gun. I'm sure they would have those in 2042. I don't think anyone could dodge those. :p

Its's obvious to me that the ability/power suppressing toxin is something nobody likes and despite how much i try to explain it, itll meet resistance.
But yea...im limited in my view because I use a generic approach for tackling things so the generic gets countered and when I try to adapt to that by going up one, I feel like I go into a loop of one upping that doesn't show me the simple weakness.
And so you think that I could have Eleos's Sniper rifle be outfitted so that it would be the size and mobility of something like the barrette but the power of a rail gun?

Most of my strategies come from using weaknesses already present in Characters. I use their weaknesses against them because like a video game, it's the key to beating bosses.
I think the reason nobody seems to care very much for the toxin is because they don't like the idea of being able to be offed so easily with no hope for recovery. For me, it's because, realistically, it wouldn't work. You would need to cover genetic, magical, anatomical, and science-based abilities. They are each a completely different branch from one another and would need to be treated accordingly. It would need to be a magic pill or something for it to cover such a broad range of abilities. Maybe it's just me being too grounded in reality. I tend to do that. :(

Well one of the reasons why I don't like that toxin is because in that case it becomes far too easy to do it. When they breathe in the Toxin they are pretty much already dead. I think it's better to find some sort compromise. Like that they can't use their powers in real pich like that. They still retain the, but they have to maybe think for a second or two that they want to use them.
I still don't like the idea of having them one hit die anyway. It's just like S121 said. John could instantly kill all of his opponents, but what is the fun in that. You have to realice that people don't like to part with their characters. I will, in time. But when I do I want it to have some meaning. Not that just randomly die. It almost feels like they died of some natural cause like heart attack or something like that. It just feels so anticlimactic.

This is just in case clarification is needed. :p
When I said "offed", I didn't quite mean killed from the poison. I meant that once their powers are gone, they could be easily offed with a bullet to the head. They won't be able to dodge it, they won't be able to block it, they're dead or rendered inert for the rest of the RP.
