MGS Thread Number 1: Abilities

[Twellas]

He is memorable, but he doesn't have any noteworthy abilities

 

[Arcker123]

Why have certain members of the cobras instead of everyone

 

[Twellas]

Because most of them are uninteresting and completely haxless

 

[Armorchompy]

I'd argue it's unlikely snake sniped him out at all, considering the game encourages you to sneak behind him to get his camo. Besides, he's using a weapon that will never kill Snake and that Snake has amazing resistance to, and Snake has several items that can help with locating the End, while he has to rely on his parrot.

 

[Armorchompy]

The Fear has pretty interesting abilities and so does Laughing Octopus. Besides, not being the absolute best at something within the verse doesn't mean you're not relevant in it. I mean, Mistral or Bladewolf are pretty worthless, by that regard. Though you won't see me scrambling to make a Fatman profile any time soon.

 

[Twellas]

Zero and basically everyone tells Snake that the one with The End is gonna be a "Sniper battle", so it's unlikely that it was anything other than that, especially when you're given a sniper rifle right as the bossfight starts.

The End's weapon can incap Snake almost immediately, which is basically the same as killing him in this situation.

The End can talk to the entirety of the forest according to him, it doesn't really compare to Snake having binoculars or heat vision.

Mistral is relevant because she's the only one who harms Raiden with a blunt-strike during a cutscene, which is why Raiden's AP scales to hers. Blade Wolf has the best type 2 immortality in the verse and is among the fastest.

 

[Armorchompy]

If talking to the forest was that literal, you literally wouldn't be able to sneak behind him at all, nor would he need to use his parrot.

And no, not really, Snake has resistance to sleep manip and the game literally tells you to pluck away the dart and eat something to restore stamina, besides once again there's literally nothing saying Snake won the fight without being knocked out by The End once or twice.

I mean, he doesn't NEED to use his parrot, and we know from his death that he has nature manipulation, so it's not at all a stretch to say that he has some sort of extrasensory perception due to the forest, and even if he didn't, he has a stupid advantage by just knowing the place better than Snake, which is very important in sniping

And no, not really, Snake has resistance to sleep manip and the game literally tells you to pluck away the dart and eat something to restore stamina

Him resisting it merely means that Snake doesn't INSTANTLY go to sleep, you're still gonna be KO if you leave the dart be for more than 10 seconds

there's literally nothing saying Snake won the fight without being knocked out by The End once or twice.

There is, if he was, he'd be ******* dead, because it's a game over if you get ko'd in-game

 

[Armorchompy]

I'm pretty sure he just takes you to the jail cell.

Still, I'm not gonna bother discussing this any further, I just hope you won't actually oppose the creation of these profiles, yes?

 

[Twellas]

Actively oppose? No, but don't expect me to be in favour either

 

[Armorchompy]

Good enough for me.

 

[Twellas]

So you intend to make profiles for the entirety of the Cobras?

 

[Armorchompy]

I dunno, we'll see. Right now I'm kind of burnt out on the wiki as a whole so I'm not gonna try and make any big plans.

(And by that I mean, I'm making a Shoot Gunner profile and you cannot stop me)

 

[Twellas]

a ******* Johnny profile

 

[Armorchompy]

Fragrance Manipulation

 

[Armorchompy]

Anyway, should this be closed?

 

[Twellas]

Don't think so, there could be more stuff to discuss

 

[Armorchompy]

bump

 

[Twellas]

such as this

 

[Arcker123]

Raiden should have statistics amplification in His beginning of mgr body because he can use blade mode
