Infinite Stratos Character Creation and Fanfiction Discussion

Ichika's noted as representative? Where can I find that info?

@Demi
The weapon number isn't that many, but the function is holy- are you sure that's not game breaker?

[Eratas123]

Any weaknesses? Also, what up with the RPG class weapons?

@ Senpai - They mention it in V6.....in the middle of Ran, Ichika's, and Charls outing with more food porn They really need to keep the topic centered.

[ZeroXSEED]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUU-

Well, I have some Idea regarding Madoka and currently discussing about it with Demi, I though I might use this info (then again she already offered to be a Personal I.S. owner, talk about nepotism )

[demino_hellsin]

well first things first.

Despite the number of weapons, they're all hand carried in use so that limits them a lot. Second, it is gamebreaker because it was made by a company that has been bidding its time and collecting data from all IS to build it. If it ain't gamebreaker then what was it built for?

The greatest weakness it has is that all the weapons are reliant on the amount of charged particles in the area, mostly produced by the 4 charged particle boosters on its back. It's also very bulky due to the payload its carrying, though it's relatively fast for its size.

The RPG class weapons are mostly rule of cool. But I guess you can say they're all test types. thus far I've named 6 weapons not counting the physical shield, but in actuality there are 8 weapon slots on the weapons rack that it wears on its back like a cape.

What do you think are the qualification of being an IS engineer?

Side note - Figured out how the Nano's affect his fighting: The nano's allow him to get "see" 3D blueprint of the IS, allowing him to "scan" its entire structure. Normally this would be useless, but his strategic mindset allows him to use it to scan and attack for weaknesses. Unfortunately, it only works well if th IS is full summoned. Partial summons means it's too small to properly scan for the blueprints.

What do you think?

@ Demi - What corporation would that be? The excuse seems kinda flimsy, sorry. If it's PT, on the other hand, then that would make sense other than some random corp coming out of nowhere.

[ZeroXSEED]

@ Demi
Hmm, I see... let's see how the concept pour to reality (relative speaking)

@ Eras
Normally that would be gamebreaker, yet because of Irish' limitation, it's a novelty that should by combined with other people with sufficient power. So, Irish is a Brain to his allies as Brawn. I'd say go for it

[demino_hellsin]

@eras: the company that's owned by the guy that forced Lyon's mother to marry him? Also it's the same company that's been one of the many that secretly provide support to phantom task such as safe houses and maintenance gear. In return all they get was data on the IS stolen by PT and a core from a random MP IS unit.

@zero: Which reality?

[Eratas123]

@'Sempai - Forgot another weakness: To use it, he can't be hit and he can't move. If he tries to attack, he needs to drop the blueprint and hope he memorized it. This means that it's useless in the middle of a fight when he's by himself. He also destroys the Nano's later, meaning he loses it for the last part of the story.

Side note - Do you think any IS weapon hitting a human being is insta kill?

@ Demi - Makes more sense. But remember, any gamebreaker has a weakness. This is how I killed someone with a gatling gun in dead frontier: His reload takes a load of seconds to do, leaving him vulnterable.

[ZeroXSEED]

@ Demi
I mean into the fic

@ Eras
Definitely Instant kill, rule of cool aside (I wonder if this is the reason Marines able to tank Silent Zephyr's rifle and survived, maybe the power and caliber is adjustable? )

[demino_hellsin]

It does have a weakness eras @_@ I already stated that all its weapon's effectiveness is relative to the amount of charged particles in the area which is maintained at high levels by the 4 boosters on its back. If you cut those off then all the weapons become solid slabs of steel, the melee weapons becoming basic solid state weapons. Ichika's Reiraku Byakuya also limits the power of these weapons normally. Imagine if he was smart enough to actually aim for the boosters.

[ZeroXSEED]

Exactly what I mean. Something can be weak in concept yet owns stuff in reality and vice versa.

[demino_hellsin]

@zero: So you think it's too powerful?

[ZeroXSEED]

Nope, any sufficiently analytical pilot will found it. Then it's up to the difference between pilot's performance.

[demino_hellsin]

oh yeah... the pilot changes between 5 quintuplet sisters who survived their birth via nanomachines provided by said company. I call them the Mamonaka sisters XD

[ZeroXSEED]

[demino_hellsin]

Each one has their own unique personality and fighting style so the multitude of weapons also helps them adapt easier. There are no equalizers as well as the weapon rack is solid state instead of quantized because all the bus slots were alloted for the charged particle boosters.

[ZeroXSEED]

Well, I was just surprised, that's all. The twins can't be naturally human right?

[demino_hellsin]

well they could be normal quintuplet sisters. That was the original plan anyway.

[ZeroXSEED]

Except it's physically impossible, babies need a lot of room and single female has not enough room for five babies to grow within :|

[Eratas123]

Before class starts again:

@ Senpai - So IS weapons is like anti-tank ammo? Also, does the scan ability seem too much of a gamebreaker?

@ Demi - Just make sure to show it instead of saying it. There's a difference between showing and telling:/
