Archetypes

[Micheal Strife]

An idea for the Heavy Weapons people to give them a chance to clear the field if they need to. Because we all know all battles don't go according to plan and having all your heavy fore power under a slow effect all the time means you will lose all of you heavy weapons guys all of the time.

Adrenaline: When you need to get out; spend F, you are allowed to run with a heavy weapon, the effect lasts 1 minuet and can not be used more then once per reset. while running you can not shoot a heavy weapon.

Just an idea...

Thank you, Jacob. That answered my questions perfectly and makes good sense.
You also saw what I saw in the Professor specialization. I liked the specialization already, now It's looking even better.

I know you know who I am. I know you know that I know who you are. And we come full circle

I was also just clarifying to make sure that things weren't quite as silly as they could have been.

However, unlike gaelicwolf (who I also know who that is, but not sure if they know that I know or they know who I am) if I were a Rappaccinian, I'd dump research into making my internal toxins more potent, so that I could enter fisticuffs and poison the hell outta them. And thus making it a skill.

Also also: In the Professor description text, I'm pretty sure that should be "faint of heart," not feint.

Also also also: Why don't Wizards get Read/Speak Language, or Study? Or would that be available to them at a higher skillset/more advanced header?

Oh course I know who you are Madrigus, and like you I know that you know who I am. I did introduce myself on the intro forum after all, if I thought that you couldn't guess it.

I would hazard a guess that Wizards don't get those skills because they're more like the Mages from Lost Eidolons. Filled with tons of magical power and little else. Besides, in LE there was only one header who started with Read/Speak and Study. Care to hazard a guess at which one?

Madrigus: On a basic fluff level, Wizards are magical soldiers. Hexenmeisters are the spooky creepy thinkers.

Well, since the conversation has moved to the magical headers and knowledge, I noticed that each of the magical headers has one specialization that has a skill to increase paranormal research pool,
except for Demonologist.
I guess Demonologists don't go in for research.
I also noticed that the skill that Shepherds get only costs 3 CP, while almost every other resarch skill costs 4 (Journalist's skill also costs 3, but that makes sense. It's their job)
That makes Shepherds the real bookish, knowledge types

gaelicwolf: Oh yeah, I forgot I had posted in that. I had just recognized your username from the LE forums. And the answer is Academic.

Jacob: That is unfortunate. I had been hoping to play an Academic-type character because I remember how much fun they had at LE, reading all those languages, deciphering old scripts, speaking to funny people, going on Academic-only mods. Oh well.

[Jacob]

Madrigus: It's only unfortunate if you're hell bent on playing a Wizard and won't even consider a Hexenmeister (which is far closer to your concept as I understand it anyway).

[Steve]

I, for one, am very open to what my build will become. Especially because I haven't played the system before... and the tech specialties still haven't been published yet.

*shakes fist*

Already in the line since before LE ended...

-_-

Besides, I think I jinxed it. Go figure.
