Kurotsune Posted January 1, 2015 Author Posted January 1, 2015 Just going to leave this here. Which brings us to the first matter we will discuss today. We need to separate ourselves into these teams." "Jus' know dat aye ain' fight-" Asgall attempts to cut-in, but is instead cut off. "Later, Asgall. First we decide who will join each team. Then we will decide which team will take on which mission. Carry on, citizens.
Ragnar Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Welp, a well balance team was formed. with that said...anyone want to adopt Raven? I promise he won't bite yet. XD
finkeltinklewinkle Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 you know, now that i think about it, a team of archers would be amazing in taking down a beast of the sea, since melee warriors will not be doing much in the watery depths of the ocean. Maybe some of the many marksmen in the rp could form a fully ranged strike team. RAIN DEATH FROM ABOVE!!!
Support Squad Felicity Posted January 1, 2015 Support Squad Posted January 1, 2015 you know, now that i think about it, a team of archers would be amazing in taking down a beast of the sea, since melee warriors will not be doing much in the watery depths of the ocean. Maybe some of the many marksmen in the rp could form a fully ranged strike team. RAIN DEATH FROM ABOVE!!! But what if they find themselves n the Leviathans den, perhaps it'll be a cave where "Above" isn't a thing. plus, if the leviathan is the only thing they have to deal with, i'd be surprised.
Sutoratosu Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 you know, now that i think about it, a team of archers would be amazing in taking down a beast of the sea, since melee warriors will not be doing much in the watery depths of the ocean. Maybe some of the many marksmen in the rp could form a fully ranged strike team. RAIN DEATH FROM ABOVE!!! I think that might be a one way road to a party wipe for all of us... let's not even test that theory.
Raindrop Valkyrie Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 But sometimes you got to live a little Strat!!! Makes things nice and spicy.
Sutoratosu Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Yes, but sensai, sometimes it's best to not load all your chicks into one basket... and then set said basket a sail to fight a giant sea serpent who could likely cause a shipwreck in the blink of an eye. And the smartest way to go with any party is to have at least some kind of balance, because it's almost guaranteed that the objective is never going to be as simple and straight forward as it seems, stuff will almost inevitably be thrown at us, stuff which if we try using some gimmick or specializing squads to deal only with the big bosses, will likely wipe us off the map before we even get anywhere close to the objective. Balance is the key... I can sense it.
Raindrop Valkyrie Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Unless, Balance isn't the key.... then what?
Yash Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 I have to agree with Stratos on this.. If possible it would also be nice to have one healer in each team and two archers..
Sutoratosu Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Unless, Balance isn't the key.... then what? Well, if one can't have balance... I guess common sense in one's actions is the next best policy to follow in it's place
Support Squad Felicity Posted January 1, 2015 Support Squad Posted January 1, 2015 We have precious few healers though, besides, we also have character motivations to consider if any. For example, Murdocs character wouldn't stand for not going for the vampires throats, so she has to go with that party.
Sutoratosu Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Again, common sense as the next best course... just don't do anything to blatantly stupid. just a... general rule I like to follow...
Kurotsune Posted January 1, 2015 Author Posted January 1, 2015 Giggles. Oh the joys of jolly co-operation! It almost tempts me give you guys a hint. But it's too early for that, isn't it?
Support Squad Felicity Posted January 1, 2015 Support Squad Posted January 1, 2015 Well, when we consider the Leviathan party, we have to consider how the battle will take place. From a boat, Archers would be ideal, but who says it'll JUST be the leviathan? perhaps it has little baby leviathans to tear your throat out, a melee character would then be ideal to deal with the creeps.

From a boat, Archers would be ideal, but who says it'll JUST be the leviathan? perhaps it has little baby leviathans to tear your throat out, a melee character would then be ideal to deal with the creeps. which is precisely what I was talking about. just because the big bad is what you're ultimately gonna have to kill, doesn't mean it would be a bad idea to consider that some situations might come up where having a bit of variety on the team might actually help out.
Raindrop Valkyrie Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Also, who says you have to kill the big bad? You just assume. I mean yes it is a giant leviathan of death and doom... but... must it die? Is death the only solution? Is it not at all possible it has it's own motivations? The same with our werewolf friend and the Vampire queen. At the end of the day, the parties will fall into place, and while it is nice to have them be balanced etc, who's to say what could happen? Anything could in theory. There are more ways to solve a problem than sticking the pointy end of a sword in it. Though, players like to assume that is the only one. Keep an open mind, and smell the roses a little, it isn't fun if you don;t try something crazy. Rationale only gets you so far. What are you going to do in a situation that makes no rational sense otherwise? Consider those words.
Yash Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Welp, a well balance team was formed. with that said...anyone want to adopt Raven? I promise he won't bite yet. XD I wouldn't mind having Raven along with me. His skills would be useful. We have precious few healers though, besides, we also have character motivations to consider if any. For example, Murdocs character wouldn't stand for not going for the vampires throats, so she has to go with that party. Despite that, we still do not know which team goes up against who. So it makes sense to balance the teams.
Kurotsune Posted January 1, 2015 Author Posted January 1, 2015 Well, both theories have their merits. There's only so far logic can take you, but there's only so far the lack thereof will, too.
Raindrop Valkyrie Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Psssh, I am just screwing with them cause it is fun. What us Host types do. Fun to watch them run about like little ants terrified of what could come.
Sutoratosu Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 I'm just preaching because I don't appreciate dying from someone else's stupidity... Well, looks like we have an elemental party forming here... if only there were someone who could control earth, then it would be complete...
Kurotsune Posted January 1, 2015 Author Posted January 1, 2015 Well, we do enjoy the trickery. I propose this question, then. What is more important? The party as a whole, or the combination of individuals that compose it? In the end, it's what we must consider, after all. The needs of the many versus the needs of the few, and all that.
Yash Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 The idea of somebody dying this early.. Paranoia levels over 9000!!!
Sutoratosu Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 I have a sneaking feeling that you're going to posing a lot of philosophical questions to us over the course of the plot of the game now... Is this a social experiment, just by any chance?
Yash Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 My brain hurts from these questions.. And this fever, cough, cold and bloody insomnia aren't helping.. So ya.. For now I am gonna ignore them.. Let the pro's handle them...
