"Necessary Evil" OOC

[Walking Dad]

I have Helis almost done! Did a few tinkering, so he is not an exact conversion. Hope that's fine.

Post him here once your finished. Re-imagination is fine, if the background stays and the characters is still recognizable.

Anyone else?

 

[Thanee]

Yes, yes, working on it, too. I will try to get her done over the weekend.

Bye
Thanee

[/sblock] Can you please use a notation/format more similar to the one in the SRD or rulebook? I'm not sure how your increased range works. Also your shield retort will not be working most of the time, as you cannot change your array as a reaction.

[/sblock] will look at this after your powers are clear to me.


[sblock=Defence] ( 6 pp)
Dodge: 6 Parry: : 8
Toughness: 12
Fortitude: 6
Will: 6[/sblock] fine, but none of your defenses hits the PL cap, but Parry/Toughness

Current math:

Abilities 72 + Powers 52 + Advantages 14 + Skills 9 + Defenses 6 = 153 PP

Increased range turns a melee attack into a ranged attack. I thought this way to list powers was easy to read, just the power and the bunch of stuff into it

So:
Sword [Fluff Name] (Damage 4 [Power name]: STR based, Affects insubstantials 2 [This is a power feat], Multiattack 10 [This is an extra, 10 ranks to make up for the 6 extra ranks from STR], Penetrating 10 [same here]


As for Shield retort, I was thinking on attacking with one of the powers in the array and then switching to Shield retort

 

[Walking Dad]

Shield Retort:

Switching between Alternates requires a free action and can be done once per turn.

Attacking with one power and switching to shield is fine. But if you want to use another power in the next turn, this switch back will be the only allowed switch for this round. You cannot switch powers both the beginning and the end of your turn.
Also reaction increases the cost for each rank and you have 10 ranks (damage plus strength).

Sword [Fluff Name] (Damage 4 [Power name]: STR based, Affects insubstantials 2 [This is a power feat], Multiattack 10 [This is an extra, 10 ranks to make up for the 6 extra ranks from STR], Penetrating 10 [same here]

Looks fine. Can you do the same for the lance, please.

 

[Voda Vosa]

So I can do it half the times right? I know it increases the costs, as do the other extras in the sword power, they all cost the same.

Will do.

<PF>Shield retort [Fluff Name] ( Damage 4 [Power name]: STR based, Alternate resistance (Fortitude), Reaction 3 (Opponent misses with a close attack)[Extra]) · 1 point/s

<PF>Shield retort [Fluff Name] ( Damage 4 (4 PP) [Power name]: STR based, Alternate resistance (Fortitude) (0 PP), Reaction +1 (10 PP) (Opponent misses with a close attack)[Extra]) · 14 point/s

or

<PF>Shield retort [Fluff Name] ( Damage 4 (4 PP) [Power name]: STR based, Alternate resistance (Fortitude) (0 PP), Reaction +3 (30 PP) (variable)[Extra]) · 34 point/s

Which one do you want to have?

 

[Voda Vosa]

First one!

 

[Walking Dad]

Alright. I still not understand two things:

1) Elemental Energy Group in your armor write-up. What do you mean.

2) Your lance power.
By my math:

<PF>Lance [Fluff Name] ( Damage 4 (4 PP) [Power name] : STR based, Accurate 2 [Power feat] (2 PP), Homing 1 [Power feat] (1 PP), Penetrating 2 [Extra] (2 PP), Reach (Ranged) 10 [Extra] (10 PP), Secondary effect 10[Extra] (10 PP) · 29 point/s

The reach power feats make no sense to me.
