Peppermint_M Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 "Impressive creations. Those so called stars will face a tough battle." Tesni took the toolbox that was handed to her. Quote
CMP Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Atramor glanced over his shoulder at the colorful squad of robots. He looked fairly uninterested, currently in the middle of taking a long inspection of the Destiny's Bounty. He couldn't help but be impressed by the airship. "Huh? Oh, aye. Nice machines," he remarked off-handedly, catching the Toolbox. Quote
-obelix- Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 "Interesting... Well, I suppose we'll see these new automatons in action soon enough." Thalion added as he caught the toolbox. Quote
Flare Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Benji takes the toolbox, and intently looks at the automatons, thinking of Jeaux whom he had spoken with recently. 'I wonder what he would think of these guys...' Quote
Rumble Strike Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Tarn looked around in wonder as he boarded the airship once again. He hadn't quite believed it the first time they had set off on the Destiny's Bounty, and despite the gravity of their mission he once again found himself on the edge of disbelief. Quote
Costy Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 "I can't say I'm a fan of using these Automatons, but they can always prove to me their use in battle." Quote
Flare Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 "Just because they slight in comparison to your brawn, Nagure, doesn't mean that they won't be as powerful as we need." Benji chuckles in a grunting-snapping way, giving off the vibes of a humorous crocodile. Quote
Rumble Strike Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Tarn takes Lee to one side, and speaks softly to the stern bodyguard. "Lee, Lady Shanxian believes this mission to be one of vengeance, to destroy those who killed her son, but do you think there is any chance, no matter how small that Jun may still be alive?" Quote
Sandy Posted July 12, 2013 Author Posted July 12, 2013 Tarn takes Lee to one side, and speaks softly to the stern bodyguard. "Lee, Lady Shanxian believes this mission to be one of vengeance, to destroy those who killed her son, but do you think there is any chance, no matter how small that Jun may still be alive?" "From what I can tell from the raports you people gave us, the life of Jun is solely dependent on if he is any use to the Stars. However, there has been no notes for ransom, which would be logical if they wanted to benefit from his capture. Jun is also a capable warrior, despite his shortcomings, and would be a great threat to them if left alive. So I fear that Jun has followed the path of his brotherhood and joined them in the Heavenly Army." At that moment Vincent Legonardo announced that the loading was completed and they were ready for take-off. "If this is your first flight, prepare to be blown away! No, I mean literally - you could be blown away by the strong winds in the upper hemisphere if you don't hold on fast." The seven G.E.M. automata stood in rows without budging as the sleek airship rose through the roof of the warehouse and into the evening sky. They were now officially part of the party, so their automatic enhancements started to take effect on the heroes, who felt themselves stronger than ever. Unbeatable, even.

Please make sure all the statistics are correct. As you can see, there's a new effect in play: Transcended – The target regains 1 ether at the end of each round for the duration of one battle. Peppermint, there seems to be a problem with your power count. Your profile says you've calculated it this way: (36+20+3+4), but your level is only 30... Quote
-obelix- Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 As the ship took to the sky, Thalion went to the bow, clutched the railings firmly and looked at the landscape around them, happily. This was his first true flight, excluding some minor levitation spells at the academy. "How long will this flight going to take master Vincent?" Quote
Peppermint_M Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 The flight was much the same as the others. The feeling of travelling in the sky, higher than the mountains, was an enjoyable one. Knowing the journey to be a while, Tesni began the work of cleaning her blades ready for battle. Quote
Flare Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) OoC: Oh, like that transcended effect does me much good Actually, from all those automatons, I'm feeling like: Wow! These enemies must be tough. This will be interesting Benji snaps in delight as he feels his being rejuvinated by the presence of the automatons. "I'm liking these colorful guys already. We'll need to be careful not to lose them." Edited July 12, 2013 by Flare Quote
CMP Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) Atramor placed one boot on the railing, looking down over the edge for just a moment. It was pretty fantastic, he had to admit...though he couldn't tell if it was the height or the feeling of invincibility the automatons gave him. McCafferey was practically gouging her talons into the woodwork for dear life. "This is a damn good ship ya' have here, Mr. Legonardo. A little ornamental for my tastes, but I s'pose ya' don't need to worry too much about sturdiness when Neron and Neredice aren't tryin' to tear it apart. What speed can she get up to?" Edited July 12, 2013 by CallMePie Quote
Sandy Posted July 13, 2013 Author Posted July 13, 2013 "How long will this flight going to take master Vincent?" "It will take us approximately two weeks to reach to Xu, if the weather doesn't get too rough. We'll be flying the most direct route over Pyr and the Strait of Seirenes into the Jade Ocean and across it to Xu." "This is a damn good ship ya' have here, Mr. Legonardo. A little ornamental for my tastes, but I s'pose ya' don't need to worry too much about sturdiness when Neron and Neredice aren't tryin' to tear it apart. What speed can she get up to?" "The maximum speed the Bounty can reach is about 80 knots, but we carry a heavy load so we have to take it slower than that. I must admit, I did not take you as one with interest in shipwrighting, Mr. Gibbin." So the days went by, with the heroes getting to know each other and their allies. Even the automata started to display hints of personality. Topazor was obviously the leading figure, while Aquamarq was the most reserved one. Emeray was the most talkative and sociable. Opalix took an interest in the games the humans played to pass the time, and soon started to win everyone at them. Garnetic eagerly helped with heavy lifting - giving even Nagure a good competition on that front. Rubio liked to keep his carapace spotless, while Sapphiraz spent most of his time gazing at the skies and the birds that flew by. One day, Sapphiraz pointed up and called everyone's attention. "BIG BIRDS AP-PROACH-ING!" Sure enough, there were two enormous avians circling down towards the airship. The closer they got, the more evident it became that the birds were a threat - both of them were big enough to carry people on their backs. "Look at that! They're rocs, kings of the sky! Obviously they are looking for a quick snack. We could shake them off our tail relatively easily, but this would be a good opportunity to give the automata one final test, just to see how well they work with you people. Don't worry if the automata break during the battle, me and Monalisa have plenty of time to fix them before we reach Xu." "Yes, conserve the toolboxes to the actual showdown. These birdies look tough, but they should go down easily with the fourteen of you against them." Getting no more time to prepare, the heroes drew their weapons as the two rocs descended on the airship with their mighty sharp beaks and talons. PREPARE FOR BATTLE!

CMP Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 Atramor grumbled, scooping up the pile of cards he'd been playing Opalix with, to no successful end. He was more than happy to have a few birds to take out his frustration on. That particular thought drew an annoyed glare from McCafferey, now taking shelter behind the mast. "Don't think Rubio or Garnetic'll have much an effect on these things, Tarn, and I think I should go first, but other than that, don't seem that complicated beyond 'hit the damn birds'." Maybe ya' could make 'em a little more frail, Thalion?" The witch took up a weapon in each hand, taking a vicious slash at the male Roc from the front row with Conspirator, and followed with a swing at it with the Pheles Rod in the back row. Quote
Flare Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) Benji curses under his breath as he realizes that his crossbow will be largely ineffective against the rocky birds. 'A little damage is better than none at all.' He thought to himself. Benji attacks the male Roc from the back row, twice. OoC: Unfortunately my multipliers are playing games on me It will be the following (I think): Hit/2(Fire elemental/rock)*2(Wind elemental/flying)/2(Wind elemental/rock)/2(Earth elemental/rock)*2(encouraged)=Hit/2. So overall not too bad, but my best luck will be if I switch to bestial form on the first round. Edited July 13, 2013 by Flare Quote

But you don't have a backup weapon, so yeah, it's probably a good idea to just attack and hope for a Shield. Edited July 13, 2013 by CallMePie Quote
Costy Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) I attack the Male Roc from the front row with my axe, twice. "Bloody birds." Edited July 13, 2013 by Costy Quote

Rumble Strike Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 Tarn switched his weapon to Helbaerend, knowing that the battle axe was doubly effective against Rock and Flying monsters. He felt a pang of remorse attacking such magnificent creatures, but knew that if they threaten the airship then they risk everyone aboard. "Atramor, that Rod of yours redirects all attacks, right? I know Namyrra had something similar when we last faced the bandits. It's all well and good, but remember that with such a large party, you may take a lot of damage at once. These robots buff us, but not themselves or each other. Everyone bar Rubio and Garnetic, attack the Male Roc from the Front Row. I will attack the Female Roc from the front row twice."

But you don't have a backup weapon, so yeah, it's probably a good idea to just attack and hope for a Shield. Thats not necessarily true. For example, if attacking a dark enemy with a light AND darkness elemental weapon, it evens out to normal damage (see Quest #74 for fast reference). So technically I still think that I can cause damage. Well, I was going to have a very nice backup weapon, but someone decided to not get back in time to give it to me Edited July 13, 2013 by Flare Quote

So technically I still think that I can cause damage. Yes, I know, but Ineffectiveness doesn't divide damage, it just nullifies it (or reduces it by one multiplier, if there already is a x2 elemental multiplier). You have three gems ineffective against rock, one ineffective against flying, and one effective to flying. No damage. But again, not much else you can do. There's a good chance you're get a Shield anyway, we're all Lucky. Quote

I guess a normal hit wouldn't do that much damage anyways, so Shield is my best hope Benji's heart starts pounding. He was eager for battle. Quote
Sandy Posted July 13, 2013 Author Posted July 13, 2013 Everyone bar Rubio and Garnetic QM Note: Remember that all party members must be listed on the order of action, even if they do nothing. Not that important in this battle, since there won't be any Free Hits, but majorly important in the upcoming battle against the Stars. Quote
