AWMBI - Discussion

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

Also, moving my conversation with Janna here so as to not clutter the Inn with OOC posts:

It's just been an endlessly frustrating day for me today (and yesterday, to a certain extent). Every time that I've tried to get anything going in game it has seemed like something has come up to. . . geez not like stop it from happening because if that was the case I'd be like "Okay, no problem" and move on to something else. . . but instead it would be like people would want to do something but random junk would get in the way and nothing would end up happening except for me being in a holding pattern and so I'd feel like 'any second now, player X will come back and then finally things will get good'.

I guess a lot of it has to do with my weird RP quirks of wanting to interact at least a little in-character before it makes sense for Caitlyn to wander out into life or death situations with someone.

(Also there's some minor frustration from the fact that it seems like I fell into some design traps with Caitlyn. If she had been built as a heavily-armed, combat badass, dangerous loner type she'd be happier going out by herself. As it is I put a bunch of skill points into "Research" and other non-combat skills that don't seem to do anything at the moment.)

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

I can understand that, I'm actually finding it funny how much everyone thinks of River in terms of combat. I gave her one point in knives, guns, and brawl so she knows what to do with them, she's actually much better at simply scouting, or running away. I can think of at least twice where it would have been easier to just book it, but then her honourable pops in cause her teammates are gettin raeped

All in all, I feel your pain. Some of the confusion with me today came from you guys having a conversation with her in the shop thread, which I hadn't checked before making the post that really frustrated you. I didn't realize that entire half of the conversation and the meeting of Vina had gone on there, so that all messed up.

So, still wanna play? :3

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

I still do, yeah. I'm sorry about blowing up earlier.

And it's not so much that River is a combat winner or anything, it's just that Caitlyn has met her, she seems sane and what she described about her life makes Caitlyn think that she won't go into a panic if bad things start happening.

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

I check this post randomly.
So it's not if I am avaliable or not, it's whether if I remembered this post was here.
So people that want to catch me to RP/mission with, have to be aware that I might go off suddenly.

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

No worries. Also, the whole 'River's a combat monster' thing wasn't directed at Caitlyn specifically, it just seem every mention of her name seems to be 'yeah, sh'ed be good in a fight', which makes me giggle. So far her reputation seems to be based off of one incredibly lucky roll, and one empty clip of .32 ammo, which just makes me giggle harder. Caitlyn seems to have one of the most solid reasons for wanting her along, with the whole nearly fearless thing. I guess juping off buildings for her job kinda gives her some good coping mechanisms, most of which include jumping off buildings, go figure XD

So, whether or not you want to wait for Vina to re-appear, I'll keep an eye out for a post. Chances are you already made one and I came here first, or you made one up while I was writing this here block of text, so if either applies, nvm

Something came up, and I'll be busy for many, many hours.

But, I'd like for the lovely people in Apple Inn to form groups of three, so when I come back, all of you guys will be ready to get the ball rollin', mission and all.

With love,
~RJ

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

...Right...

So, team number 1:

Caitlyn
River
Vina

Mission: "More survivors?"
~~~We've reports of scantly clad groups of women wandering through the city, what's strange is that they all seem to be wearing similar clothing. We can't pass up on an opportunity to rescue more people. They seem to be located somewhere near a bar downtown. Also, beware, they might be zealots, and should be treated with caution~~~
(Recommended player type: Brawler)

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

Well.
I'm going to have to get two other people for a mission later on.
After my short looting run.

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

Sorry for logging off the other night but it was 2 am

we definately need to find groups who work on similair hours or we might only get two or three hours of prime group roleplay a day at best.

I hope my British timezone and non nocturnal life style wont hinder the group too much if it does i could try and find a more suitable timezoned group?

if im still part of the group theres two missions i think Vina would do well in, and thats

"More survivors?"

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

More survivors was the one i was thinking of as well, but i think that already has a buttload of people after it. Any ideas what we should go for in terms of loot if we take the other one?

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

What?
Nobody want to go on the " Battle with a goddess" mission?

 

[Mamono Assault Force]

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

I know, right? You guys don't wanna avenge Shiva?

 

[BurningGold]

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

My character wants to go and avange her.
She is going on that looting mission to get stronger so she wont get her arse kicked.
Hey Raptor when I do go on that mission any chance the chick with the broadsword could be Iris's partner?

 

[devild]

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

Im thinking bigger guns styled looting quests if we want to avenge Shiva

 

[Shrike7]

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

i wouldn't mind that, though if i remember correctly, janna wants to hunt for some medical supplies. River's still running around with a .32 though, i wouldnt mind upgrading.

Also, hey RJ, would upgrading my knife to a shortsword help things? i have a description of her knife i'm working on, would it be okay to just spend the 'not-points' and just improve the same knife to similar atats?

 

[BurningGold]

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

Ok I need a two people to go on a looting run with me.
Any takers?

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

if i do Janna will roast me on a stick XD

So, no can do, sorry

Re: AWMBI - Discussion

The only thing that make the short sword slightly better than the knife is it's weight, allowing a better cut. Although the difference is hardly noticeable.

One thing you could do to make your knife that you have right now better, is to get someone who's good at crafting things to make it really sharp, giving it a temporary damage boost, the length of the boost depends on the levels of success the crafter got.
