RPGuild Ranking Headquarters!

I'll be fighting you in the four way once it gets balanced properly, two fights with one person is more than enough.

In my defence I'm currently fighting

2 unranked battles
2 ranked battles

about to enter a third ranked battle, there are some people on the leader-boards not even doing one man.

[Ranked] Four Way: Convergence of Power

'Divine' doesn't really mean anything unless you say it is directly hostile towards a certain type of character, which is why in my sheets I specify my character is weak to 'holy' magic specifically because it feels like a better term for magic which is against the undead and demons in most fantasy.

[Ranked] Four Way: Convergence of Power

I'm not really seeing the 'why would I use undead when divine enemy in game' argument, there is literally no mention anywhere of anyone having an ability with greater effect against undead. Willy's character has magic divine in origin, but that doesn't mean anything, Hades is a 'divine' in that same respect, do you think his powers would be somehow super-effective against undead considering his sphere of influence? The only slight mention of being super effective against undead is an ability which has elements of the sun, making it super effective against 'certain enemies' presumably people with a weakness to the sun, such as Vampires.

I'm not seeing any particular 'hard counter' here, certainly not in the same level as 'uber water shield'.

[Ranked] Four Way: Convergence of Power

<Snipped quote by MelonHead>Actually, Kevlar is pretty much useless against piercing attacks and perhaps more or less the same could be said about this cloth.
A knife or a sharpened blade would find the gaps between the threads and push through them.

@Willy Vereb

It only says the durability of Kevlar, it says nothing about having the same physical properties beyond durability, or like I said it would be useless after one big impact.

[Ranked] Four Way: Convergence of Power

<Snipped quote by MelonHead>I believe the character was made when everybody else's, weeks in advance and in a PM to Rilla.
Unless he made edit to the character and included some new abilities but it's unlikely. Guess we may want to wait for Rilla to confirm things.
Technically the water shield seems to require at least one prep and can only last for 5 "turns" and can be broken by charging an attack as prepped up as the shield.

Also I really-really can't see why would a 10 or even 50 times kevlar durability clothing an issue when we are powered characters who semi-regularly make craters, destroy wall sections or perform similar acts of destruction. Sure, it'll be bulletproof and may help withtand indirect explosions like hand grenades but that's about it.

@Willy Vereb

Well, it certainly hard counters my character. The ability to completely negate her only offensive ability while also being near immune to the piercing attacks she could launch while charging makes it highly unlikely Anna could hurt him.

Not every higher tier character inherently has lazer beams or explosive attacks, many use simple piercing attacks and physical force, both of which are easily negated by something with 50x the (original? Kevlar only stops one attack but I'm guessing that's not how this works) durability of Kevlar. It's worth pointing out that Kevlar on its own is roughly five times as durable as steel, so 50x that essentially means Khan's character is as tough as someone wearing steel on his body of a rough thickness of 50x however thick his cloak is x5(say half an inch, to be generous) this means he's essentially as durable as a 125 inch thick steel wall. I don't know how strong -your- character is, but that is damn near indestructible for mine.

I'm not saying we can't bullshit our way through it in T1, but logically as it stands that armour is as strong as a 125 inch thick steel wall, I think that could probably stop a nuke.

To the Screams of the Roman Mob

His spear thrust was battered away, his opponent surprisingly going to the effort of deflecting it with a shield on the far side of her body rather than simply twisting away from it. Such an action was costly in terms of time, preventing her from striking out with her own spear quick enough to pose any real threat to Brennus, who had dragged his own spear back and nimbly strafed anti-clockwise on his right foot to take advantage of the shield on the wrong side of her body.

Her own spear missed by about a foot and barely passed the left side of his head as he stepped rightward and with his spear barely even a third of the way drawn back to its original position he sent it flying forward again, attempting to outmatch her ability to shield herself with the speed of the point of his spear. This time his strike was aimed lower, likely to cut into the left side or front of her left thigh. He was testing her attack and defence even as he studied her reactions to his attacks.

[Ranked] Four Way: Convergence of Power

Khan's character's entire set of apparel (which from the reference seems to cover a huge amount of his body) is nigh on indestructible at 50x the durability of Kevlar, so yeah, there is a slight issue there.

His character also has a power that literally negates water magic, that sounds like a slightly bullshit power considering this character was made post everyone elses being revealed.

[Ranked] Four Way: Convergence of Power

Sit around and wait for all this to blow over.

@MelonHead Kimchee is not alcohol, it's fermented cabbage in spicy marinade. Tastes like shit, except when you're drunk.

@LeeRoy

Everything tastes better the drunker you are then, blanket rule.

I think Ireland would consider them fighting words, and mehaps Germany too.

@GreivousKhan

I live with an Irish guy, I out drink him easily.

Germans only drink beer, they're weak.
