Easy way to fix it is to have everyone have this system. Then those Special Characters, that are without cartridges and you cannot modify their gear, don't become shafted because they stand out! And given some advantages of the magerifles (comes in several flavors from handguns to heavy magecannons), we'll see more being adopted, instead of just Vice. Bows have their own advantages, as for one they do not require line of sight to deliver a volley into an area (assuming that the mage/knight does not know homing magic, which is common because such magic is rather advanced). Hence why Rain of Death is a secondary attack of a Bow-user, while everyone else gets it at tertiary level. I'd would've touched on Staves and their advantages, but I'm really digressing into 40K now... Quote:

That means AMF the sucker and it's useless. EDIT: Also, if anyone's looking for inspiration on weapon looks, try the weapon options in City of Heroes. Click on each image for a larger version. Occasionally the pictures do not convey the full sense of the weapon. For example, the Rularuu options, those eyeballs? They move. Last edited by dkellis; 2008-06-25 at 22:09. |

But you could of course, have Cooper's AI, Key. KEY: "Don't remind them I'm associated with him, it's quite embarrassing that HE programmed me as it is." Yeah, Key complains a lot.

Another Device would be like: TSAB GAS Training Grounds Carnage: [A group of inductees is closing in on our position, my lord.

Of course, if the last time you played was prior to mid-2006, the game's changed so much since then (in terms of setting plot and gameplay) that it's essentially a whole new game. Quote:

Swords are the most popular choice of weaponry, with polearm and spear weapons comming in second. Gun devices are also pretty popular, possibly rivaling if not surpassing the polearm weaponry, and I do recall seeing a couple of staff users around, but those were usually jeweled caster staffs. Beyond that we have one or two bows, katars and other fist weapons, I remember Kha once had a tower shield in one of his earlier versions, knives, glaives, kusari-gama, and probably a few more I can't recall. Nighty even had a keyblade user.

Should I ask for a quick informal role-call of active OCs and their weapons (or Devices)? |

Celestial Being, Licht von Belka
Kha der Kleriker - Tausend Kreuz, a sword-cross, Stella (Unison Device, petnamed as Sak-tan), Charade (submachinegun-like device) and the Tome of Devotion. Gimmy Mifuelle - Night and Gale, a pair of revolver tonfas. Foy Rokker - Inherent Skill Macro Dominator. And his body is his device. Taiyo Aozora - Magic Suit Masked Rider "IXA", another kind of full body armor, and a spinoff of the Denliner Project (as detailed in Eva's works) Yui Hiro - a nameless sword-gun and shield set, addressed according to the AI, Zero. Sankt Alexei Convent, Adeptae Belkarum Sophia Alexei - Kaleidostick (wand, Precious Force Device), Swert von Zelretch (sword), Dauer (A pair of daggers that transforms into a bow, destroyed halfway through StrikerS) Keira Nightly - Siren, a pair of bangles with bells and creates a haunting jingle when rung. Ashley Rouge - (Device currently under redesigning) "Canoness" - Precious Force Device. Name is classified. Saint Guard Artei von Braummuhl - Monohoshizao, a sword made out of a special metal Gerbera Straight, that absorbs mana in any form and strengthens itself, and Grade Terminator (Armor Device) "Kyrios" Infinite Library Yuuno Scrya - As stated in SaintX's works. Unaffiliated Arisa Bannings - A katana, "Nietono no Shana", that's made of Gerbera Straight, and the various mode releases of Grade Terminator "Throne" as her armor. Uses Eldritch magic school, specializing in Destruction (Void and Fire elements). Tsukimura Suzuka - "Mikoto", a staff topped off with a cat motif. Uses Eldritch magic. These are off the top of my head, more when I think of them. I also left out the devices that OCs from non-canon factions use, as well as the massproduction ones grunts of all factions use. If you want I'll list them later. Yes I have way to many OCs and CCs rebuilt...

The earlier mentioned Rho Aius for one, and lets not forget: He is an Archer, Archers shoot arrows, and Archer destroyed an entire graveyard with his shooting. Granted, at that time he was shooting something that was kind of a cross between an arrow and a sword, but the results were awesome. Just for the record, when I say 'scythe' I mean warscythe type weapons, not farmer scythes. Maybe I should fix that to glaive. Just your average psycothic assasination droid, nothing to worry about. |

*jumps on the wagon for the fun of it*
Device rolecall on my side then. Katrina Deviceless due to the fusion of a Lost Logia with her body, the Eye of Fire, changing the mana she channels into a state too volatile for most devices to handle. Has lots of experience handling Armed devices during the pre-TSAB warring period. Currently using a custom rapier, Surtr, crafted by Jail that is able to match blows with cartridged-enhanced devices. Uses daggers as well to complete her battle style. Gen Uses armored gauntlets Eve as primary device and Avatar, an attempt at emulating the BoD's massive storage capabilities. Jac Primary form of Specineff is a purple-black rifle-like device. Secondary form(s) employs an unusual scythe as a melee weapon, which can be wielded one-handed or two-handed. Jag Ravage takes the form of a over-sized buster sword that has a secondary mode resembling a kwan-dao. Nothing special here. Jas Vayeate takes the form of a rifle specializing in long-range sniping and bombardment spells. Her secondary device, Snipe, is a pistol-shaped device that acts as a last resort when threatened at close range. Jec The device Mercurius is a near direct port of the defensive weapons employed by a mecha of the same name from Gundam Wing. Twelve disc-shaped storage devices are slaved to a central Intelligent Device; primary strengths lies in the deployment of remote spell-casting away from the mage through the discs, as well as creating mobile shields. Secondary device, Nighthawk, is a short hafted spear with a V-shaped head to dislodge opposing weapons, and an extendable hidden dagger link from behind. As for WIP characters, I have a gentlemen with a talking umbrella and another that wields a pillar-shaped sword called the Genesis Star. ...

Active OCs:
--Rex Atkins uses a sniper rifle device with an alternate assault rifle configuration with a quartet of Blaster Bits built in to enhance his beamspam capabilities. He also has a small pistol-type storage device which he uses as an emergency sidearm. --Alexander Crestwood uses a pair of Shield Gauntlets, and uses his power over pseudomatter to alter the gauntlets' forms, for instance sprouting a pair of longsword-length blades from behind the knuckles, growing claws from the fingertips, etc. --Iris is permanently fused with a nameless unison device. Other devices are unable to interface with her due to interference from this unison device. Also, something I'd like the haxxbusters to take a look at. I've already mentioned that Alex is the scion of the Crestwood Royal Family, right? Well I got to thinking about some sort of ancestral weapon passed down through the family to serve as Alex's proof of his heritage and I came up with a Device Logia idea based on the Blast Sword from the Slayers novels. The idea is a sword which acts as a sort of magical battery, constantly draining magic from the atmosphere to charge itself. This charge is used to enhance the sharpness of the blade to absurd levels (at maximum charge, it can sever molecular bonds and cut through solid blocks of just about any metal you can imagine) or the stored magic can be discharged as a single (or a few, haxx-dependent) S-rank spell with no charge time or strain on Alex's linker core. Doing this reduces the sharpness of the blade to normal levels for about 24 hours until the blade recharges itself. Other than this, it acts as a fairly standard intelligent device. Due to its' distinctive appearance, Alex refrains from using this prior to his unveiling of his identity during the HQ attack, and only breaks it out when he really needs to bust some heads. Otherwise, he uses his armor device to dispatch "lesser" foes.
