The Grail Games OOC IX

eh, I guess there is that too. XD

but I've definitely felt in this RP that some of the Servants have way more diverse powers than the others.

We're doing battles IC? What's the difference?

have you seen the battles? aside form the ones you are controling, which is super easy to do since you can just have both characters do whatever you want. most battles resolving around two differant rpers are reall quick and not that impressive(aside from when Gedo is involved cause Gedo is Gedo)

I dont, Lancer, Saber, Berserker and Rider all did the same thing, swing weapons

I meant looking at it from a sparring standpoint.
given the option of which of those 4 I could use in a spar, I would definitely pick Rider, simply because of how much diversity there was in his skills and NPs. they allowed him to do more with what he had to work with, even if his stats weren't as impressive as the others.

a big part of sparring is being interested in how to use your character in combat, and if you don't have any real combat skills to use in a fight, aside from basic knowledge of how to swing a weapon, it can get dull unless you get into deep detail. there's also the fact that if you're clearly outclassed in attack diversity, it can be a very frustrating battle because your enemy may use three or four different attacks to create a combination attack of some kind, and you're limited to dodging it in a simple way or simply getting roflstomped...

Forget I asked.

Gedo be dah Gedo

Pretty much all of Meira's moves can be used in an innovative way, or combined with another move for a completely different one. Not even sure if I'll get to use all of her 'special moves' lol.

Anyways, class. I'll be back in like 2 hours or so.


I did post though.

Caster, Assassin and Archer surprisinly are the best for sparring just because of how much diversity they have in their abilities and noble phantasms


but at the same time both Caster and Archer are too broken for sparring, archer for having a noble phantasm that never misses and Caster for just being overpowered

So, which has been your favorite battle so far?

sparring isnt what you think it is, it's not like a fight in the rp, where two posts can be enough so long as the battle resolves. Think of it more like wrestling, in that both have to do these overcomplicated moves to show off and entertain the crowd and themselves. Nasuverse is bad at this because Nasuverse is a bit too realistic in combat

posted something quick for Logan.
I'll have more to say after Alina's post.

That's why sparring is lame.

speaks the woman that made an Assassin essentially become flashy during combat just for the sake of showing off her creation that ultematly led to his own demise

I did that because ultimately the weakness he despised in his Master was his own Achilles heel. Besides, I'm making a story here. It needs excitement.

Thanks. :0

Rejoice, I'm back.

Kitty, can you post again for Jacques/Archer sometime tonight? : o
I'd like to post once more for Logan before we wrap things up at the library.

I have one done already, actually.

Posted, again. :0

So, here's the deal, guys. We're going to skip to "tomorrow" pretty soon, but it's really just going to move into the early morning hours before sunrise. The next chapter will start later during the day.

can caster show up now?

"Demon King Maou"

Speed of Sound Sonic

No. Wait till Archer is alone.

I guess I'll just have her return and wait

why? it's not like Caster means any harm

No, but you'll ruin the moment. Besides, scheming in front of Lancer and Logan isn't wise.

i posted something short to finish that part with Archer so Payne can respond. sorry i'm rushing this so much, but i really want to get it done before i leave
