[OOC] Fate/stay Night - War of the Fourteen Magi - High Casual

[Turboshitter]

@Greyto be fair some of these people are whales, or have literally been re-rolling for three whole days. I would definitely like a better character to replace Eliwood as none of my units have the versatility to replace him competently. I need Camilla, Hector, or Takumi. Chances are I won't get them. But this is a Gatcha Game remember there will be better units in two months if that.

@vancexentan

Did you pray to Kirei (or whatever his equivalent in FE is)? If you don't pray to Kirei, you're gonna get spooked.

[Grey]

I know but it's just so e.o

But on the bright side at least my PaD rolls are still golden, so I've got luck elsewhere if not here _{of course now that i say that my next godfest rolls will be shit but at least they're generous with stones}

[vancexentan]

@TurboshitterNo I pray to Gilgamesh. At least he's honest when he says he's going to kill me.

[Eklispe]

On the bright side of you summon 120 times without getting a 5 star you have a guaranteed 5 star XD

[vancexentan]

True enough going to do two more summons if that fails then I'm going to just wait for the next banner.

I'll reply to Grey later. Reason I didn't throw in Lancelot was because not only would it end incredibley one sided with him in the battle against a singular servant with help but I'd like for his actual entrance as a servant in the fight to be a bit more epic.

[vancexentan]

A quick note of how Berserker is running rough shot over Roland. He has a high rank in instinct which lets him predict her moves. Just want to tell you guys that since no one has tried to scan him as of yet. He's essentially a giant walking tank not unlike Siegfried but much less defensive and much more offensive. In other words defense is not a big word in his vocabulary.

[Turboshitter]

Uhhh vance? Durandal ignores durability and can only be blocked by a Noble Phantasm. I don't know for sure if Roland's strike to his flank was meant to be a serious wound, but Berserker wouldn't be able to just tough it out. That sword should slip through him like cheese wire.

[vancexentan]

@TurboshitterI'd say it a pretty good wound but Endurance Level of A and Battle Continuation of B let him pretty much tank a solid shot like that. If I need to I can have him use instinct even further to prevent an overly fatal blow. You know who this guy is regardless do you think he would buckle over one solid sword blow? Or does having a better durability level than Cu Chullain mean nothing?

@vancexentan

When it comes to Durandal? Yes. The Noble Phantasm's effect is literally "be the sharpest and most durable sword there is". That was explicitly mentioned in @Grey's character sheet when you accepted it:

>"The sword is unbreakable and unstoppable. Regardless of the owner’s magical energy, the sword does not lose its sharpness, and regardless of physical defense, the sword is capable of piercing it as long as it is not a Noble Phantasm."

I don't know how deep the wound was meant to be, but if Durandal cut him, there should be no resistance regardless of his Endurance. That's the whole point. It can only be dodged or blocked with another Noble Phantasm. That's been a part of what makes Roland dangerous from the very beginning. The wound she gave him doesn't have to be fatal or even that serious, but his own Endurance and Rank in BC shouldn't affect it at all because Durandal bypasses those things.

[vancexentan]

@TurboshitterAlright then Turbo how do you want me to change it then? I don't want to make the enemy berserker come off as a mary sue the floor buckling caught him off guard. Endurance isn't his defense stat in it's entirely either (Quickness and speed of reaction is all in agility) it's how much damage he can withstand have the ability to pierce and wound him doesn't mean he can't shake it off. Perhaps I am underselling the effect of the blow though. Endurance doesn't effect Durandal's ability to hurt it does effect how much pain the berserker can withstand. Negating magical defense and armor doesn't equal negating one's ability to take a blow.

Short story even shorter I can have him use one of either of his noble phantasm swords to block it. Regardless the blow should hit him at least once even slightly.

@vancexentan

I think you're missing the point I was trying to make. He can soldier through it or have his Master heal him or something, but the blow should definitely still register. He shouldn't just be able to shrug it off (unless I was misunderstanding you the whole time and you just meant his injury didn't affect his ability to fight).

[vancexentan]

@TurboshitterHe feels the pain he just doesn't give a damn about it as he had done worse to others, and been hit by worse in his legends. He's pumped up on his blood rage more over from his class. He knows he got hit, he feels the pain slightly over the urge to kill, and he knows he's bleeding. His injury isn't effecting his overall ability to fight still but will hamper him the longer this fight takes.

[vancexentan]

Be it GM Fiat or not I had not originally intended for there to be three gunsmen however enemy berserk's master is in a position where he is more like a church version of Kiritsugu minus his special gun and bounded field in place of high tier sacramental magics. As a magus hunter he probably has a few friends who'd help him in this war (Edit) Given the situation and Albert's stubborn nature I had to do something for enemy Berserker's situation. Originally he was supposed to be the one holding the gun to Albert's head in this scenario.

The bombs were planted before the group got there and the reason he took his time to show up was because he evacuated the remaining employees to the best of his ability. If I had just him likely Albert, or more likely Lancelot would've done him in. Had to stack the deck hard. Keep in mind this WILL cause a party wipe if you throw the wrench into the engine. Leon may survive due to his water shield ability (Water pipes in the building depends on if Leon can even manage it in time) if just very very barely. Lancelot will die, berserkers will die, Albert will die. Best way out of this is to take the big guy's advice.

[Grey]

Well this is awkward.

[vancexentan]

Edited my post to catch it up to Grey's.

[vancexentan]

@Shadow DaedalusHey shadow you should do something for Charak you haven't posted in a few days. No rush really but I'm sure Charak would appreciate it.

@vancexentan

That is actually my fault Vance. I had only recently posted Jack's response yesterday.

[vancexentan]

@1Charak2@Shadow DaedalusOh alright my mistake been trying to run three versions of this roleplay isn't helping me keep up with what's happening in each. Not blaming anyone but myself for that.

@vancexentan

It's been two days since I posted this? Well then...

[Shadow Daedalus]

@vancexentan I've been everywhere but online, so I haven't had time to really respond. I barely had time to push out my IC, but I appreciated the gesture
