If you think that's OP, you should hear about the suit's potential lifting capacity. The only reason the Mark IV doubled lifting capacity was because of the UNSC's safety protocols and limiters in the suit. Halsey's Journal states that it could easily be much higher, increasing John's lifting capacity ten-fold, possibly more.

That means that if John decided to say "f*ck it", he could remove the limiters from his suit and throw tanks like they were pebbles! XD

@ S121

I wonder at what price that would have...

Also I should make an archive for EG's Apps also...
Cause that might be something to tie in to the story...

I'm guessing that going higher than 10 times would potentially rip the liquid metal crystal layer of the suit. It would most likely increase the lifting multiplier by adding voltage to the suit, based on what I found in Halsey's Journal. They have almost everything in there, even the scientific principles used in the suit's "strength multipliers."

The MJOLNIR armor IS supposed to cost anywhere from the price of a small starship to a small fleet of ships. It's a very expensive suit. :p

What did you have in mind for EG?







@SUSTIC

I'm good.

I just hit the jackpot for information on John's armor and abilities, and as it turns out, I REALLY nerfed him. XD

You want to know what's OP. Unnerfed KH characters

@ S121

Let's just say something might collapse and he would have to catch it...and it would be pretty big...

@ discussion of OP things
There's a lot of things that if not nerfed would be impossible to fight.
Exhibit A: Xenoblade's Telethia


Telethia (Japanese: テレシア, Tereshia; English dub: /tɪˈleθiə/) are an ancient race that live on Bionis. Their purpose is the destruction of all lifeforms existing in the Bionis.
[...]
Alvis remarks that the Telethia are drawn by the wavelength of the Monado. Shulk tries to attack them, but it's revealed that all Telethia have the ability to read a person's mind, rendering all attacks useless, even with Shulk's foresight.
[...]


Imagine, even if you could see the future, it can still trump you because as soon as you think to counter it, it'll counter you.

@SUSTIC

And the crazy thing is that John's even supposed to be able to move like lightning. In one of the books, John was able to deflect a scorpion anti-tank missile with a lightning quick punch.

"This was exemplified by John-117, who was able to deflect a speeding anti-tank missle with a lightning-fast melee strike, a feat of unprecedented speed and reaction time- made possible by John's accelerated neural synthesis with his MJOLNIR by the AI Cortana."

That actually means that yes, reaction time also translates into how fast one can move their body, meaning that John is really slow in the RP.

Next time someone complains about John being OP, I'll show them what he should be able to do. :p






@Katrix

True. They are supposed to be able to create pillars of stone and make the sky grow dark. I though you didn't nerf them. I thought you were planning on using their full power, aside from the near insta-kill attacks.




@Cucoo

Not unless they fight someone that can think, react, and hit them faster than they can read minds. :p

Anyways, I might need to rework John's strength in both RPs. His lifting capacity is only supposed to be doubled, or slightly increased above the 2x mark. I had him at 5x, meaning that I underestimated his armor. He'll still be able to lift the same amount, but it's just a number correction for canon. It was my screw up. I'll need to do a little more research before I make a decision, to see if I was originally right or not.

As for EG, that sounds interesting. I might implement the AI boost from canon, and seeing as how he no longer has an active AI, it shouldn't elicit too much of a fuss. It will only take effect when an AI is in his systems. I'll need feedback from everyone before carrying that out, of course. :p

@S121

I greatly nrefed them in attack power, but not abilities. That means that they can still crate giant pillars of stone
