[QUOTE="Vendetta, post: 1727155, member: 14961"] Brother Shatterstone… I gave the 50% because I felt like that was fair. +20% just doesn’t seem worth it to me… So… with speed increase, yes, the shift is a bit more of an advantage than the feat. I won’t take that away from you. I said that? Boy am I stupid. It would be tons of fun to chop into Starscream’s whining @$$ with Bushido while stopping him from talking by shoving the business end of one of those flamethrowers into his mouth to watch the flames blast out of where Bushido cut. Alright you… keep it up and I just might have to. I still have my G1 Optimus Prime figure. I’m only missing the little car thing that went in the trailer… so watch yourself :p :D Yes, it is basically DR (hardness/-) AND stacks with the hardness you get from being a soldier, if you took that class ability (If you did, you would have 11/-) And yes, if you get shot by a human tank, then your DR would be 20/- or 21/- which actually makes sense to me because human tanks NEVER hurt any Decepticon and with just the 10/Nexus Energy, a tank would be able to do enough damage per shot to penetrate that 10 barrier. (It might be able to do enough to get through 20 also, but not enough to be real worrisome.) Good. I think we will roll with the Hardness thing then… that will help a great deal. I don’t really understand how a Transformer imbues a telephone pole with Nexus energy when he rips it out of the ground to bash Uglyatron with it… but oh well… I can kind of understand it with their ranged energy weapons. They have no ammo so I kind of assume that their Nexus Energy Generator supplies the energy needed to fire or make the ammo to fire their guns. Still not sure which way I want to go with this. Generally, you can chose special feat types with character level feats, and so the form feats would be available every three levels. I never saw in the rules where form feats could ONLY be taken at first level via the priority, but then, if that’s not the case, why allow delaying and giving out so many? Heck, why even make it a priority… So… I think that we’ll say you can only take form feats with the form feats specifically. Which means that I’ll probably be adding some kind of bonus priority thing as talked about above or some way to gain a few extra form feats as you progress. I’m open to suggestions on this if anyone wants to work up some kind of options for us. I’ll make a decision on this soon and post it later tonight as well as getting the lead in story posted so the RPing can commence. Also… I’m thinking about making transformers just a bit tougher and granting them bonus Hit Points equal to the Hardness rating I gave out times 2.
