Little heads up guys, I won't be active for (hopefully) 1-2 days. So don't kill me off yet, I have legitimate reasons!

Quick survey: As some of you might have read Jaklo has a Rage Function of some sort, but I never really cleared up what it could do.

Basically he gets a fair bit more powerful when he is pissed off, and I want to hear people's thoughts on balancing it as I'm likely going to use it by the end of the golem fight. The upfront obvious balance points are he's entirely unstable at that point going more off adrenaline and rage than logic. In a sense you could say at the highest end he's going feral. I don't really have a cap on his current increase in abilities (something I'd like to hear from you guys), so I really can't say for certain just how much better he might be. In my head he's outpacing most world renowned athletes. He's probably far more durable at this point too making up for his normal squishiness.

I jsut really feel like I need input for balancing as Jaklo is not meant to be a really op character like Seph or Markiel who are masters of the craft trained since they were kids etc. etc.

Perhaps his lack of true experience lends itself to this sort of power being fatal. Rage allows him to be nearly invincible and increase his base power but at the cost of his physical well-being, the longer he rages the more damage it does to his body.

Well in terms of balancing, that sounds okay, considering you were okay with Baron outpacing the highest level athletes by default when he's orange-d up.

@jasonwolf

When enraged he could loose all sense of self preservation, meaning that while he won't feel pain he won't try to avoid loosing a limb or getting stabbed, to put it short he could end up dying berserk style just to land a single blow.

Maybe having Jaklo could face some negative effects after going berserk/feral/whatever mode. Possibly have him become unstable, emotionally and/or physically. Tires easily, irritated, etc. etc.
I also like @dragonmancer and @fdeviant idea.

I'm fine with Jaklo making up for lack of magical skill with physical prowess. I mean, it should be a temporary thing, of course, and I like the idea of him losing his ability to reason the higher it goes.

@R31GN yeah but he's burning through mana. you have limit already set with mana. Rage tends to be a rather... boundless at times.

^That. It's your RP, you don't need to ask permission or forgiveness. On one hand, it's commendable to try and keep things balanced, on the other you're in charge here, everything is your decision.

@Polyphemus If you read what Seph said, he said nothing about what the other team found in the basement, the signs of conjuring, etc. I was hoping you'd actually want to rp what the character would say to each other. That way, I get a more realistic idea of what Mithias would know. But It's fine. We can just metagame and skip actually being in character and all that jazz.
