Hoooly shit. Calm down website.

[DragQueen]

Sorry about the 4 copies of the same post, website really freaked out.

I saw you charging, but me showing up would interrupt that entirely. When was the first charge? Also, while you were on the ground, I had shot at you, once again an interruption.

Nope, you started talking with your character, there wasn't any hints that he was striking before my own character could prepare his attack.

Perhaps if you'd attacked, rather than spending time responding to Fury's insult, then it would have interrupted the charge, but nope.

Also, you showing up obviously had -no- effect on Fury whatsoever, he thinks your character is a pussy, I thought I made his lack of cares pretty clear.

[MelonHead]

As for the specific occasions where he charged
1. Bringing energy to his palms, preparation for an energy blast.
2. Literally me saying he was preparing to blast your character off the rock.

You talk a bit and then make an extremely obvious attack (not that this mattered, as Fury was already getting up to carry out his bitchslap after being annoyed by the rebuke)

Fortunately for Fury, his own attack is perfectly suitable for launching your character off the rock while also deflecting streams of lava everywhere.

[LeeRoy]

I'm just gonna say one thing.

Fury got up in like, less than a second to deflect an attack that was fired at him while he was laying down. How fast can he stand up from a static laying down and exposed position unaided by his energy? Cause if he got up aided by his energy, that's another charge voided. As Khan pointed out earlier with:

GreivousKhan said
Btw, in terms of prepping attacks, you should know that when a charcter is prepping for their special ability they usually can't also use it during that time. So while a mage can chant a words to a spell and swing with a sword, he can't power a spell and use another spell while defending.

Also, it takes like, 1-3 seconds to say a full sentence. And he was called weak at the very end. Immediately followed by a spray of hot lava. So yeah, how fast can he get up? Because it would take very little time for it to actually hit you while you're laying down on the ground.

[TheBiddz]

Well there goes three days time, I guess I'm getting a free charge.

Not really, to Fury swinging a sword and using basic energy blasts are comparable, you're using a low tier example on an intermediate tier character.

Besides which, he didn't need to use energy. He just stood up and turned at the waist (not even turning fully) to blast him with energy. Easy business when an enemy makes some gurgling noise announcing his attack, especially for someone with twice the human reflex who's also a trained warrior. Watch some videos of people standing up some time.

Also, I have the advantage of having all of this planned out in advance, it's not like I'm suddenly pulling Fury's attack out of thin air, he always intended to blast the fucker off the rock. Personally, Drag is lucky I'm not calling ballshit at him randomly dropping down from no-where just 12 feet or something from my character.

And finally, not that it really matters, but Drag's character is launching a projectile (and not one I'd call particularly aerodynamic) so if Fury really needed extra time to meet the attack (which he didn't, in my opinion.) then he certainly got it with the time it took lava to leave Drag's character and cross the distance to hit Fury.

I suppose, even on top of that, because Fury 'jumped' to his feet, he would have had to have moved forward (I'm sure you're aware of that style of regaining one's feet.) Therefore, that lava wouldn't even hit him anyway, he's moved.

[LeeRoy]

Is this done? Is the site's crashing over?

Alright cool.

That's funny really, cause Khan used it on Khold. Who would be considered upper end intermediate tier as well. Hmm.

Two, he said barely a second for it to reach his mouth. Fury's super fast, and I'll admit that he could hear it. But I'm gonna call bullshit on him being 100% prepared to move from a ranged attack that was aimed at him while he's laying in literally the most exposed position possible for a humanoid being.

Also, you can't call a damn thing. You did the exact same thing to Khold earlier. Albeit a little farther away, but you crossed the distance in one turn, so you did basically the exact same thing. You showed up and attacked him from nowhere.

You were preparing to blast him off, yeah. But even you said: "If he rushes him." Which, from what I'm reading he did not. He aimed at you while you were vulnerable.

And lastly, I actually don't know how quickly Drag's lava is fired. But from what his CS says, it's a seemingly infinite amount, and that would be highly pressurized inside of him or some kind of portal. So reasonably he could just pump out more and negate your attack entirely, because lava is much denser than human flesh. It would get blown about by the energy blast, yeah I'll admit that. But we'd need a number on how fast he can blast the lava to know just how much of your energy he could negate with it.

[DragQueen]

I will admit, honestly, the whole portal from nowhere was completely just dropping somewhat close, and out of nowhere was a little bullshit, but that's still besides the point. And if we're doing the comparing lower tier to intermediate tier characters thing, Drag isn't really a lower tier either. Drag didn't just kinda flop the lava out at Fury lazily, and as I said, (while silly) projectile vomited. It'd be propelled forward. It's not exactly a small projectile, either, so moving such a short distance wouldn't do much for Fury either.

Drag may be silly, but he's not going to get himself killed. Anytime he is talking, he is doing said action, he doesn't just stop to talk, like some cartoon villain.

Also, I kinda just wanted a rematch with Fury, as he ran away last time. So let's not argue all night, I just would like to kick Fury's ass.

[MelonHead]

Right, so your character was what? Spitting the lava while talking?

If you don't write that your character is doing something while doing something else, then he is not, it's sequential.

And LeeRoy, stay out of this argument, because you're obviously not reading things correctly and making weird points that make no sense by pulling out what-if statements that don't even apply to the conversation.

It's clearly stated Fury intends to blast him off the rock with energy, what you quoted was Fury's reaction to being rushed instead, where he would engage in melee. He wasn't rushed, instead he was engaged in probably the easiest way for him to strike.

Strange though how the exact same energy blast in the last thread sent your character flying around in circles when it was hardly even aimed at him, now I'm directing a full body blast it's apparently being negated by a thin stream of lava? How is that preventing the energy throwing you off your feet exactly?

[DragQueen]

Alright, you make a good point, and I'd hate to just argue. I'll edit my post, brb.

[GreivousKhan]

I should finally have stable internet, thanks for waiting btw. :K

[TheBiddz]

Yeah no thats totally cool. I just had Khold stay still and charge a bit more.

[GreivousKhan]

:P

Tablurath reclined in his chair enjoying his cup of tea as the transport smartly maneuvered through great arches of webbing as it headed toward the momentary field base of operations for the ground forces of Angar-Rylla who had thus far landed, which was mostly just made up of a number of landed drop ships. Just as he had ordered they had prepared well, fortifying a rather large earthen platform suspended a great deal higher than any of its neighboring rock formations. The comm system built into the holograph before him beeped a warning before a hard almost mechanical like voice was heard. "This is Beta team leader, Lord Cardinal do you read?" "Ah, Ivan Torrant, I trust everything is ready?" "Of course Lord, all teams are enroute to engage the target." "Excellent, just remember Captain, this is a level four Cryomancer, with power over the wind. He may have knowingly used up quite a bit of moisture in that tower of his but don't underestimate him." The voice on the other end chuckled. "Of course Cardinal, we've dealt with their kind before and we're now properly prepared." "Good, good, be sure to capture him alive or at least intact if you can, the data from his body is invaluable. Now has Alpha Team located the site of the anomaly?""Not yet, seems there is a large energy source located deep within the pits that's causing a disturbance with radar devices." "Hmm, unfortunate, I'll have to locate Fury then in the meantime; he's more attuned to those sort of things." OS2K Drop ship Tablurath had boarded moments after Khold had made his quick exit pivoted and veered back over a column of rock formations that were circled by a dozen patches of trees. Meanwhile four drop ships of similar make were veering in on Khold's position. Tablurath could have easily continued fighting the man himself, but really there was hardly any need with a small fleet and thousands of men at his disposal. If anything it would be another test of what this Khold was capable of. So far Tablurath was rather unimpressed. Once the drop ships came into position hovering an easy 100 feet above the gulf Khold now stood within they formed a wide rectangle formation with his current position at the center. The men who had landed earlier had already taken up positions on giant overlooking spider strands.

Haha, you dun goofed.

[LeeRoy]

Let's see how long it takes him to actually edit his post,.

[MelonHead]

I don't even really understand what he's doing. Khan, did you forget you already posted that?

[TheBiddz]

I'm gonna be honest, this made me laugh my ass off. I've done it before in other forums, so I know the struggle is real.

[TheBiddz]

Also, Im still kind of surprised that Tablurath ran from Kholodny. I mean, Khold never even attacked him. I guess he just wasn't confident in his ability c8

[MelonHead]

Rather than argue I've decided to vomit sarcasm all over my post so perhaps you learn from your mistakes, or not, I suppose.
