I do have a few contentions:

The Low-High regeneration on Dépasser is something that seems broken. Like uh, there have been self-repairing weapons shown in RP and even they don't have that level of regen, and nobody can negate it, so it's an unfair advantage in terms of like, having an undestroyable weapon, if you get what I'm saying. You can have it be self-repairing just uh, not on the level of Low-High.

Can you clarify the limits on the knowledge absorption thing from Dépasser? On the file, it makes it seem as if it works on any form of attack, whether physical or magical. Is it only elemental attacks that can be absorbed? And if so, is there some form of limit to how much information it can absorb/analyze? It says he can only store information for the duration of the fight, but, if it can absorb the information of attacks for the duration of an entire fight without some form of limit to how much it can absorb within that fight, then it seems a bit broken. It'd prolly be better to add some sort of strict absorption limit, or have it be a thing Jonas doesn't usually use, to balance it out.

The Extraordinary Genius intellect should also preferably be lowered to Genius level, cause uh, it doesn't really make sense for Jonas to be that skilled as a 21-year old human to be that skilled and knowledgeable in comparison to being's that have lived and fought for centuries or millennia lol. Genius level intellect makes more sense within the limits of the current story, kinda akin to what Siglos has.

And uh that's really all my contentions.

I only made Dépasser indestructible because it is what makes Jonas unique. It took him several years to build, and a lot of his character growth will revolve around his future refinement of its capabilities. If it was to get destroyed, he would become a smart guy with only his chi sword for a weapon.

Dépasser doesn’t absorb physical attacks or analyse them, but can block them. It has no limit to what it can absorb, but it can only absorb attacks corresponding to elements it itself can manipulate (which as of now is rather limited), and the forcefield has a blind spot in the back, meaning any omni-directional attacks screw it over completely. Jonas only really gains the opportunity to bring up the shield if the attack is of decent enough range, so melee and extended melee elemental abilities won’t end up seeing the force field used against them.

Sure, I just wanna make sure Jonas is the smartest of the group when it comes to combat IQ, and otherwise I have no gripes with changing intelligence here and there


There’s other abilities I have in mind (like being able to disable any magic equipment at the cost of disabling Dépasser’s own magic), but I’m keeping that at bay until later down the line

 

[Pikaman]

I’ve updated Jonas’ intelligence!

 

[DaReaperMan]

Make him at least 50 years old of non-stop GRUESOME training and combat experience and sure, I'd have no issues with him being the most combat intelligent character in the party!

Yes, the bar is that high

I uh, get that, but in the case it does get destroyed, I have characters that are capable of rebuilding it for Jonas, so uh, having it there is just unnecessarily broken. Plus, I'd never make an active effort to destroy something that important to a player character, so you really have nothing to worry about.

I'll uh, split my respond up a bit so it isn't a wall of text. Pardon me.

Any weapon is capable of blocking physical attacks, so that's fine. I obviously expected Jonas to be able to block things with his weapon, so there's no problem with that.

By having a "limit" I meant a limit to how "much" it can absorb, not to what it can absorb. So like, it absorbing elements is 100% fine, because we have characters capable of making things that do just that in the party, I'm just saying that there needs to be a limit to how much elemental energy it can absorb before it reaches a hypothetical "overload" or uh, limit before it starts being incapable of using it's absorption or starts breaking or something, yknow?

Sure, I just wanna make sure Jonas is the smartest of the group when it comes to combat IQ, and otherwise I have no gripes with changing intelligence here and there

Having him be the smartest of the group makes no real sense, but uh, we could just say that he's up there lol. We have characters that are several decades older than him and have trained/learned much longer than he has.

Yeah, the Regen is kinda broken.

Well Jonas created Dépasser and is the only person who would know how to recreate it, but as long as nobody is trying to break it I’m fine to remove it’s indestructibility

Sure, it can only store 3 attacks at once, and any attacks with “higher” AP will break the forcefield and render it incapable of use until Jonas gets a chance to repair it

Having him be the smartest of the group makes no real sense, but uh, we could just say that he's up there lol. We have characters that are several decades older than him and have trained/learned much longer than he has

That’s fair, even if Jonas is meant to be naturally gifted on a decently unprecedented level to make up for a lack of experience

I don’t wanna be a dick about this so please let me know if that’s still too much, just trying to keep the principles of his character in tact

 

[azontr]

I have characters with creation/repair hax so they don't necessarily need to know how it works/how it's built to recreate it lel. Those are like specifically top-tier characters though that are GM exclusive so uh, not on the level of normal player characters rn.

Actually perfect fix.

Naw bro your not being a dick. Just trying to keep everything balanced and shit fr. Having him be generally/naturally gifted is perfectly fine.

Um, Siglos's has had minor repair hax since the start of the series.

Limited Age Manipulation (Can restore broken or damaged objects with his magic, returning them to peak condition)

He's even used it in the RP iirc. Should I change it?

Uh actually exclude my statement lmao.

People with repair hax will be able to fix the sword thingy in general not just top-tiers

 

[azontr]

Though uh if that's still a problem for Pika we can just say it's a super duper weapon that can't be repaired by normal age manipulation or whatever

 

[Pikaman]

Oh no I have no problem with magic or hax fixing the sword

 

[azontr]

That's perfect, then.

 

[azontr]

So uh, just apply the fixes we've discussed to the file, and Jonas should be 100% good to go. An introduction into the story can be discussed privately between us, if you want.

 

[Lou_change]

Should I have given my character higher intelligence given they have access to the knowledge of someone with over 30 thousand years of experience

 

[azontr]

Only Chim should have that level of intelligence, they shouldn't be able to share it with the dwarf guy.

 

[Lou_change]

The mind link it is not like they can't communicate however said Chim is intentionally difficult when it comes to helping with combat plus that time didn't consist entirely of fighting. I might have to confirm a few things with you about Chim's behavior.

 

[azontr]

Uh you may have to yeah.

 

[Pikaman]

Jonas is officially balanced, sorry for the hassle of having to help revise him-

 

[azontr]

It's completely fine. Jonas looks alright now.

 

[Rakih_Elyan]

Is this still open everyone?

 

[azontr]

It is.

 

[Rakih_Elyan]

Any character requirement?
Highest tier? Speed?

 

[azontr]

It is literally all in the OP my dude lol.

 

[Rakih_Elyan]

It is literally all in the OP my dude lol.

I tought the OP are outdated consindering the MASSIVE 1K MASSAGE ON THE RP.

 

[azontr]

It's not lol. We're still in Act 1.

 

[Rakih_Elyan]

It's not lol. We're still in Act 1.

That so long, DAMN.

 

[azontr]

So true!

 

[Rakih_Elyan]

How do i edit sandbox on smartphone?

 

[azontr]

You preferably don't, and use a computer lol.

If you don't have a computer, Idk, I don't edit on mobile.

 

[Rakih_Elyan]

You preferably don't, and use a computer lol.

If you don't have a computer, Idk, I don't edit on mobile.

As an asian i ask my uncle for laptop explain what i want to do with his laptop...
And he said "finally my niece have an INTERNATIONAL connection in internet'

 

[azontr]

Dunno how to help you, then. Mobile editing ain't my cup o' tea.

 

[Rakih_Elyan]

Dunno how to help you, then. Mobile editing ain't my cup o' tea.

You drink editing? As a tea? How?
Sarcasm here, dont be mad okay?

 

[Backbackback]

Yeah, kinda wondering why my tea tastes so modified

 

[Rakih_Elyan]

Does pure demon exit here?

 

[Rakih_Elyan]

It's frustrating you know? When you spend a hour writing impressive character background only for the page to refresh.......
F*CK!

happened to me a lot of times, just got used to it at this point

 

[azontr]

Elaborate on what you mean.

 

[DaReaperMan]

Does pure demon exit here?

Not exactly, and any that did have been hunted down and killed.

 

[azontr]

Oh if we're talking about uh the original, completely pure demons than yeah their dead. BBB asked the same thing lol.
