RWBY vol 7 thread

[Nico-v11]

Ok I know for a fact that there were different names for them before. Isn't Yang's supposed to be called "Wreathed in Flames" or something like that?

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Up until now Weiss was the only one that had an official name

 

[WeeklyBattles]

So uh...would this give weiss a bit of a hax upgrade?

 

[Nico-v11]

Yeah people thought it was Wreathed in Flames. I guess that was fan made name? I mean it even shows up hear:

https://world-war-fan-fiction-series.fandom.com/wiki/Yang_Xiao_Long

As for Weiss I don't know what upgrade you would be referring to?

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Manipulating fundamental forces

 

[Spinoirr]

 

[Nico-v11]

Manipulating fundamental forces

Mmm....nah. It's like Pain from Naruto. He can attract and repulse but she can also accelerate and decelerate. Wouldn't really call it changing laws of physiques or anything really hax worthy. Just a regular power.

 

[Nico-v11]

@Spinoirr I love the Adam one and don't ask me why because I don't know.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

So this might upgrade Yangs semblance significantly, an expansion on what her semblance does, every strike she takes gets the energy of the attack doubles and added to Yang's power

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Jaune's semblance is aura amp, nora's is high-voltage, and ren's is tranquility

 

[Nico-v11]

You know what I noticed by reading that? She probably doesn't store much energy in general. She takes a hit, she's got the energy and doubles it when she hits next. However she has now lost the energy she had absorbed from the first hit and is back to zero energy until she gets hit again.

She could tank multiple hits and then release the attack all at once against the opponent. Maybe when she uses her semblance all of the stored energy is used up at once?

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Exactly, so if she gets hit multiple times she gets multipe times stronger, but if she gets hit once and then immediately hits back its only a 2x amp

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Neptune's weapon is named Tri-Hard and Cardin's is The Executioner. Cardin would also get fire manip and explosion manip as his mace has a fire dust crystal embedded in the head capable of releasing flmes and explosions at will

Coco's weapon is Gianduja, Velvet's is Anesidora, and Yatsu's is Fulcrum

Raven's sword is Omen and her semblance is Kindred Link

Vernal's weapon fires concentrated lightning dust

Penny's weapon is Floating Array

Oz's weapon is The Long Memory

Oobleck's is Antiquity's Roast and Ports is Blowhard

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Flynt's semblance confirmed to quadruple the power of his attacks

 

[TheRustyOne]

Alright, had a feeling based on the name but glad to have confirmation. Also Yang's semblance overpowered that if I remember correctly.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Yes, it did

 

[Nico-v11]

I know for a fact that "Tri-Hard" is an inside joke about Neptune trying so hard to keep up his "cool" act.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

I know for a fact that "Tri-Hard" is an inside joke about Neptune trying so hard to keep up his "cool" act.

It was actually the name that Sun gave the weapon that Neptune didnt get the joke of until several years later

 

[WeeklyBattles]

[WeeklyBattles]

Confirmation for how yangs semblance works that was discussed earlier. Also Adam confirmed as a bull faunus

 

[Spinoirr]

Nice, but people still call him a goat for the memes boi

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Well thats about everything, they have full body pics of the new designs ill try to scan in later

 

[Schnee_One]

Weekly has very small fingers

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Nah it's just a very large book lol

 

[Nico-v11]

Weekly has very small fingers

XD

 

[Theraptor99]

Good trailer. Except for the moment where they are bound. I mean, shouldn't they be able to free themselves, because even if their aura is down, they still retain their superhuman strength.

 

[Tipper17]

Wonder will any decent upgrades are gonna happen in this volume?

 

[Spinoirr]

Maybe for salam this arc

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

I mean, shouldn't they be able to free themselves, because even if their aura is down, they still retain their superhuman strength.

Qrow: "I was honestly expecting things to go a lot rougher."

Gets tied up

Qrow: "Huh. Not that rough."

Turns into bird and turns back to escape

----

Also, F in the chat for Vic. Qrow just isn't the same w/out his voice.

 

[Spinoirr]

Eh I couldn't actually tell a difrence

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

oof

 

[TheRustyOne]

I honestly can't hear a difference either. I don't have an ear that can notice the tone change, I know it's different but I'd probably never notice it if I didn't already know he was changed.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Any issues with the stuff from the guide?

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

Any issues with the stuff from the guide?

It just seems to be confirming a lot of the stuff we assumed here to begin with, like how Aura functioned, and how Flynt's semblance works.

I don't see how it gives Weiss any form of dura negation; her manipulating fundamental forces; acceleration, time, gravity, are already parts of her kit that don't let her bypass durability. Same with Glynda, the explaination doesn't really add anything new to what we already know, and hardly qualifies as "hax".

The stuff with Yang seems fine, it just gives a more direct multiplier for her semblance.

 

[TheRustyOne]

So Flynt can be High 8-C with his Semblance since it quadruples his power? While Yang's Semblances can overpower it. So is it safe to say Yang can become 4x stronger (at the most) with her Semblance?

V 1-3 Semblance is 5.6 Tons

V 4-5 = 8 Tons

V 6-7 = 72 Tons

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

So is it safe to say Yang can become 4x stronger (at the most) with her Semblance?

No?

Yang never overpowered Flynt when he was using his semblance; he kicked the crap out of both Weiss and her every time he used it. Weiss/Yang won through tripping him up and attacking him when he wasn't using his semblance.

 

[TheRustyOne]

He used it against her in the end.

Right here.

This the only time he uses against Yang as well.

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

Right here.

Yang causing his attack to backfire doesn't seem to place her on equal footing, there.
