Fangs: "You know, we could sort this out without dueling, and you could go right back to keeping Malek's idiot ass from taking another ride through Lytek's cabinet."Arynne said:...that is, if she doesn't get killed dueling the Dragon Kings of Ankss. ops:
This. So much this. Honestly if you expect to see combat at all, those are them.Kacie said:Folks - there are only 2 must-have charms for Exalted combat. Your perfect, and Infinite Mastery. Get them, love them, use them.
Epidemiologist: I do.cyl said:I wouldn't exactly associate "Rabid Beast" with "more soak", but that's just me.
Instinctive Dexterity Unity is the Best. Ever. Seriously - I'd argue it's better than the Solar version, because it's good on both the attack and defense. Dexterity being the combat stat, combined with being able to take Excellencies that effect combat = win.Arynne said:So: Deadly Beastman Transformation (note, get some moonsilver or moon-faced armor somewhere, so I won't be as nekkid as that Alchemical chick)
Instinctive Dexterity Unity
Claws of the Silver Moon (even though they're useless in Beastman form; the houseruled Lunar Hero Form would be more useful here)
Relentless Lunar Fury
...anything else?
Also, if you wanted an IC excuse for all this, Fangs had promised to discuss with Flicker the Nature of the Lunar Exalted in her priestess-y role as a No Moon. I'd be up for that, and Fangs can teach you at least two of those Charms.Arynne said:So: Deadly Beastman Transformation (note, get some moonsilver or moon-faced armor somewhere, so I won't be as nekkid as that Alchemical chick)

Yeah - the one question I had to ask Argis was both weirdly topical for that particular moment, and something she's been meaning to ask Argis about since Tirana unveiled her genocidal grand plan.xarvh said:The Darkness at the End will become the first or second Scene of the next Chapter.
I'd like to close Stone, Rain and Silence and Dreams and Nightmares in a couple of days.
Is it ok?
Perfect Defense blocks Perfect Offense, but it's very much a "Perfect or Die" combo attack. How good that is depends on the people playing - in some of the games you and I have played in, that's a recipe for being out of motes and screwed, but in this game Xarvh doesn't seem to be spamming PDs (which is good, because there's a paucity of them on our side) and it would be bloody deadly.Kacie said:@CrazyIvan -- what is that lunar strength charm? Mind posting it for me? Does it get around Heavenly Guardian? I thought Perfect Defense trumps Perfect Offense? Thanks!
Malek sucks at combat and he has a low mote pool, Rhapsody sucks at movement, and Siham is nowhere near VH's threat level.Kacie said:Is it okay to ask for a debrief on the heist/fight in "They Shall Know Fear"?
Some GMs are okay with discussing tactics and giving feedback on where mistakes were made, others prefer not. I know I wasn't in the scene, but I knew what charms the Void Heart was using - which influenced advice I gave. I hate giving bad advice, hence the asking if it's okay to ask about how you saw the setup from your side of the screen, Xarvh.
Too late, he's captured. Moving on...JayTee said:@xarvh: I wish you hadn't closed the scene just yet, as I need to ask @cyl something:
The purely objective perspective that Agatha!Siham has would not allow Malek to be captured where he could be turned or be forced to give up vital secrets about Cross. Likewise It's entirely within Siham's capability (both in terms of Charms and in terms of mental fortitude) to grand Malek a quick, painless death as opposed to the long painful tortures that the Mask of Winters and his Deathknights are sure inflect. However Normal!Siham would only do that if he was certain that it was something that Malek would want. With Investigation 5, I think this is something that Siham would know, or at least be very sure of.
Do you want me to have Siham give Malek a quick painless death?
Would not have it any other wayJayTee said:Fair enough. The Mask and Void Hearth had better treat you right, or Siham is going to burry them and the Juggernaut in a block or Adamant at least three miles underground.
Well, Void Heart is going to end up that way no matter what happens thanks to what he did to River, but The Mask still has an out.
