It was small codex stuff mostly. They used it to get rid of the inventory clutter and explained it as "if you can melt it, you can build it. You now buy the patterns.
I guess you have more faith in people than I do. Too skeptical. AN I know devices don't normally behave like that. Its why I usually said it'd be a modified unison device.
Heck yeah! Ridebacks totally need to be a thing, motorcycles that can turn into combat capable robots are awesome.
So aside from drastically increasing 'Capes' to fight Endbringers and random people being less skewed to villainy than triggered capes, another reason to do it.
Oh they would be fun. What vote would we need to do to make that situation a thing? I'm assuming it would have to be during the weekly activity vote? Maybe as one of the Social Slots?
It'd be a social slot, but at that point I would really strongly recommend that Tim make his own GB. I know there's been hold-out to doing that in hopes of giving him twins without suffering any benefits, but thematically and plot-wise…
In other words, "get the final parahuman copying upgrade and research Clockblocker". I'm going to presume that it's possible to make a sustained temporal stasis instead of a brief semi-random duration one.Why do you have to ask me something like this as the very first idea?
I'm looking for any way I could leverage Tim's skills to do this and not coming up with much. A chemical cocktail to slow down the body's functions, like a combination sedation infusion and therapeutic hypothermia? Yes, but that wouldn't do what you're asking for, and it would be short-term use only. A stasis tank filled with liquid in which people can be suspended? Yes, that's actually canon (see Alicia, though an argument could be made that she's just a well-preserved corpse, and the Numbers clones, and even Vivio initially), but Jail created all three of those, and Tim doesn't have his blueprints, knowledge base, or sheer intelligence.
I'm going to have to (very reluctantly) say no to this one.
Ah... Good to know. By the way, how long is it for Tim to reach S-Class Core and thus the Twins?
That girl is going to be tricked out with more gadgets than Armsy at this rate... I approve!
Yes, though it pushes her surgery back till next week. I was planning on giving you a bonus social with her in 9.13 if I could just because I find Vista fun, but there isn't enough time for him to make all of that in a couple of days.
Each drone would take a slot to build, at least for the first several, as would the docking station.
No. Even if it theoretically could provide enough power at max output, Vista's reactor only has 60% of its output unclaimed. Two of the five "nodes" it has that it can use to power objects are taken up by the regular arm movements and the upcoming enhanced torso musculature.
Four and a half weeks. He's currently at A-rank and will switch to AA-rank over the weekend in-story. I got bored yesterday and updated his and Taylor's character sheets with their Linker Core ranks, and I'm going to do my best to keep his and any other template mage's rank updated appropriately.
Good to know, so it would require its own power supply. Still, I kinda want to get one for Vista for one simple reason: she'd be able to actually get them to follow Gundam-type physics, at least vaguelly.
Why would Vista need mana channels to her remaining natural limbs and head?
Yeah, you massively misread what I said.
You could, but you'd need to build an upgraded combat arm later. I'm not going to let you pick seven weapons/defenses (the absolute maximum you could but in an arm) for her current arm when you can only currently power three.
