Now, if we are talking about strategy in the missions, if you decided to just upgraded Prism charisma and intellect, and then unlock her duplication powers, having her alongside Phenomaman in three slot missions is basically guaranteed success in almost all type of calls (exception being the calls that put limits that you can't reach otherwise you fail that mission)

I'll have to do more strategy in my second run, I need more characters with low fighting level

Old man Chase has speed of light statement i believe.

heres the sol statement

 

[ElajRuengies]

heres the sol statement

So the TVTroper within me says that that's just a figure of speech meant to convey how broken Super Speed is (especially when considering just how hard it is to balance it; see every other CW Flash critique video), but the Powerscaler within me says Speed of Light go brrrr.

Anywho, assuming the speed = aging factor scales up evenly, moving at light speed for 1 second would cause him to age (299,792,458 m/s / 8 m/s / 60 / 60 / 24 / 365.2425) = 1.1875 years.

"Visi planted the bomb theory"

I was watching people play the episodes recently, and Toxic did say "That's it babe, get off now..." or something like that, so it does seem to be the case.

The unfortunate thing is that even if Chase can move at light speed, literally no one else scales to him. So he'd be the only one to benefit from it.

I agree with this.

I was thinking a possibly or likely rating but you know better.

 

[PowerToScale]

Oh yeah, Phenomaman could've also been there... Honestly, I get her decision if Waterboy was picked, since then Blonde Blazer's the only heavy hitter and it's possible somebody could try to remove her amulet mid-combat. But if Phonemaman was also there, then there's absolutely no excuse for not rushing the place.

Especially considering the rationale of, "We wait for downtown to handle it," when Phenomaman (who was working for downtown!) is right there.

Blonde Blazer is a leader and it falls under her responsabilty to keep them safe. I would do the same thing, all they know is that the pulse is potentially in the warehouse.

While we know with hindsight that it was there, in the moment for all they knew it could have also been a trap, and sending in a team of intoxicated heroes who haven't even gotten ready to go fight. Granted the level of power needed wasn't the highest as invisigal could break in, but that wasn't know at the time.

Following AGAIN

Btw, Spoiler Episode 6

Spoiler

What happens if Chase recovers in the end, and the ending is good or bad depending on whether we kill Shroud or not? If we kill him, Chase is disappointed, and if we let him live, Chase is happy and we get the girl and everything good?

Would remind me of the Telltale Batman finale

 

[BlackDarkness679]

It ruins the moment, you kill a character just so they return

Sometimes a character is better off dead with the impact left to this world

maybe phenomamen but i think we would need to wait later chapters with statements to confirm that

Yes, I agree, I'm just saying it could happen

Yeah, I agree. I love

Spoiler

Chase

, but the story is absolutely better off if he's dead or at least dying.

Part of the main plot is about watching Invisigal's superhero origin story. She's basically the deuteragonist.

Spoiler

Chase's

death is her Uncle Ben moment.

Would kinda lessen the impact if Uncle Ben lived, wouldn't it?

 

[BlackDarkness679]

Especially after their last talk ended in them throwing mean words at each other and hit on the face

 

[ShawnFaux]

Apparently there's some leaks going around about the last two Episodes. Make sure to be careful if you care about that sort of thing.

Shame, really. People have been posting some cool ass edits, but for now, I'm staying off twitter till Wednesday.

 

[ShawnFaux]

This is the coolest one I've seen by the way, in case anyone was curious.

 

[ElajRuengies]

Who do we think is the strongest member of the Z-Team, right now? Excluding Phenomaman, obviously.

Honestly, I think it might be Flambae. Dude is a douche, but he's no joke.

Side note but every Flambae AP calc is a Golem durability calc too

 

[Dalesean027]

Whats the verse looking like stat wise, I can't get the game just yet so I'm watching a playthrough of it now

 

[Da3ggman]

Looks like mostly 9-B to 9-A, Mecha Man’s suit will probably have an at most Town level.

Supersonic for a few characters, but for most it’s like Superhuman.

 

[PowerToScale]

Co founders have stated that they now have to at least think about a season 2. We def getting, they ain't going to drop the ball and not give it a second season.

Around 56minute mark, video has chapters

Yo, been a bit, happy to see you here

Likewise, I would have been here sooner but I was holding out until I got the game but just decided **** it and that I'd watch it now because I really do wanna experience the story and shit

I see I see, I'll see what my calc eyes vibe as I see stuff

I really hope we do get it at some point, because they absolutely cooked with this cast and I'd love to see them again.

 

[ShockingPsychic]

Assuming we don't scale them to Flambae or whoever, most of Z-Team are currently 9-C. I think some calcs would be useful for them

Off the top of my head,

• Malevola cutting through a wall (and again) and later a metal floor
• Monster Bat's KE (Don't have a link, but his character art shows him in full next to his normal self)

 

[ShawnFaux]

I think my only real problem with the game as it is right now is that some choices feel pretty undercooked.

The best example is whether or not you tell the team that you're Mecha-Man in Episode 5. To be blunt, the party scene in Episode 6 just straight up does not make sense if you didn't tell the team the truth. I've seen people try to cook up explanations for it, but they all seem pretty flimsy to me.

Speaking of Episode 6, there's also other weirdness there. Namely that Chase calls you out for dating Invisigal... even when you aren't? I went for Visi on my first save, so it made sense there. But then on my second save I went for Blazer, and yet he said the same thing. So it's, like, unc what are you talking about?

 

[ShockingPsychic]

Even if you aren't explicitly going the Visi route, her and Robert still have some obvious chemistry, at least in Chase's eyes

All of these are solid 9-B feats

I guess that makes sense. It still just feels off to me. I think is just kept in regardless because it needs to be there to re-establish his conflict with her for when they fight at the end of the Episode.

 

[ShawnFaux]

Credit where it's due, I did find out about a funny little combo you can do:

Go to dinner with Blazer in Episode 4, don't kiss her, and then in Episode 5 when she asks you out on a second date you can tell that you just want to keep things professional.

Understandably she gets very confused by this and just walks off and mumbles, "What the f***?"

I saw that option from MoistCritikal's video! Was wondering what would happen if you picked it.

Man that must be confusing. Imagine someone asking you about the chances of second date before immediately following that up with "Actually nevermind, we should stop."

Not even just that. Part of that whole first date was her finding someone who accepted her for who she really is, and Robert was all in for it. But the next day, in this scenario, he's just like "nah actually, nevermind lmao."

God, imagine this is the same Robert who told her that he didn't believe in the pep talk he gave to Invisigal, and just said that so she wouldn't quit while on the clock.

Hiring Mecha Man has just been one long [Never meet your heroes] moment for her.

I forgot you could even say that. Thats so mean

And the fact that Visi loves him regardless of what you do makes that even worse. Blazer are sure you didn't hire Robert the Second instead of Robert the Third?

 

[Dalesean027]

Phenoman definitely Hypersonic or faster (im at the end of chapter 2 starting 3)

He says something in Episode 4 that could make him potentially even faster, but unfortunately it's unquantifiable. You'll know it when you hear it.

yeah I think its for the neutral romance ending, but that scene is funny as they have basically the same facial expressions as normal, I think someone might have messed up the rendering for it.

Making Robert like a sociopathy
