This that work well with the Privateers is either Gadgeteer or Enhancement. They would know best what kind of equipment they need and being connected in Danny's network would allow them to deploy buffs and debuffs where it is needed. I don't think they need someone really tough like the Knight since they do low tier stuff and are mainly doing guerrilla type fighting. Unless being mage'ified makes them immune to Danny's power, but that only makes applying debuffs a little more difficult rather than anything significant.

The Problem is that the good stuff needs them to be PRIMARY. Extinction Knight thus fits our build best. We should spend the next arc looking for TWO people to upload the other templates to (the first being the Gadgeteer). Hell, we should find more then two. Id like 4 of each to be honest. then we get another 5-6 for extinction Knight right after.

Just to check, what do you mean by 'the things we really want'?
Remember, it takes three uninterrupted days of doing nothing else to make a single Template device, so say nothing of the time spent scanning.

He's talking about what templates would be good to give to the Privateers if there are mages in them, not what Taylor should get.

If we make someone else a Gadgeteer, then we can have them build some generic devices. We would only have to spend the three days per Template Device when we really want to give a character something special.
Those would be primary. Because those are the templates I'm suggesting for the Privateers.
It's like those who reply to me don't know how to read the whole posts anymore.
[X] Extinction Knight – Close combat specialist with heavy armor and the cartridge system.
Cuz gadgeteer isn't going to be useful to us if we have it, and I voted for extinction knight originally.
Maybe we can use our tertiary upgrade to make it just as useful as our primary.

Extinction Knight is 6 votes ahead in this thread, whilst Transcendental Gadgeteer is 1 vote ahead in the SB thread. Infinite Enhancement isn't even in the running. Looks like we'll be going full combat - we'll probably Uplift a Privateer to Gadgeteer, unless anyone has a better idea?

Privateer to Gadgeteer makes most sense to me.

You need to work on your counting.
IE tied with EK in SB only.
Behind TG by four total.
Extinction Knight - 34
Infinite Enhancement - 16
Transcendent Gadgeteer - 20
EDIT2: Switching back to IE since EK has a comfortable lead now.

You know we're probably going to get interrupted during the three-day process of making the device, right?

Oh geeze, how embarassing; I went from the SV thread to the SB thread, and misread IE as TG. You're quite right. I should have posted the tallies!

I'm a little sad that Enhancement have so little support.
Support capes are always needed, and we already killed one of the most known. Panacea is surrounded by Zizzed people, so her future is in doubt too.
Next Endbringer battle will be !FUN!
There always will be something that can interrupt us.

Are you suggesting to not give any templates at all?

When we acquire Gadgeteer, we should turn Privateers into Combat Cyborgs and name them... Letters
Well, maybe if the people who swapped from IE to EK switch back, it might have a chance.

Not necessarily.We'd need twelve more.

Who was a highly probably Ziz-bomb.
By all means, convince the PRT why we should have let her live.
Her family suffer from Shard-fuckery, not Simurgh-fuckery.
If people say cross-training in Gadgeteer isn't worth it because of the project-time issue, I can point how how it applies just as much to Taylor as she is now.
Cross training to Gadgeteer isn't worth it because its a major time sink AND because its a secondary class for Taylor, which means we don't get the good stuff. If we give it to a Privateer then it becomes their Primary and it absolutely becomes worthwhile, because then we can get our delicious magi-tech nannites, Hard light Shields, and powered armor. Combine that with us taking Extinction Knight and we may very well make Nanoha and Fate hellaciously jealous as we live up to that title.
...
All of a sudden I'm picturing the Wolkenritter being part of the arrival team and blue screening as they have flashbacks upon seeing Taylor and the Privateers. (because Perfect Storm was apparantly a logia? made to fight the Belkans.)

Othala was not a bomb, but she was in love with Ziz-bomb.
Guess who in exact same position?
I'm not proposing to spare her, I'm proposing to replace her.
We can spend three days to receive our own high-class Tinker, or we can not spend them by becoming less high-class Tinker... and then spend unknown amount of time to build everything we need by ourselves.
We need spend about about four or five time slots to fully develop Gadgeteer's skill tree and each time slot is around two or three days.
Division of labour is a thing because it actually more advantageous, you know.

Until we know it's something beyond what she did in canon, we have no proof whether its Simurgh or Glory Girl's preexisting issues. And given the QM rated my post insightful, I am disinclined to think it's the former at this time.
You two are not addressing my point: The project to produce a Template device must go uninterrupted for three full days. Three full days hoping Echidna does not choose to assault the city, three days of hoping the Endbringers keep to their schedule, three full days of hoping the Privateers don't need our help defending themselves, three days of hoping the Slaughterhouse nine doesn't come calling, three days of hoping someone doesn't try to stick a knife in Taylor's back while she's working. And that threat doesn't go away when the device is done. The Gadgeteer now becomes a prime target. Who is more able to defend their lab if it is attacked: An early gadgeteer Taylor, or an early gadgeteer Privateer?
Your assuming we plan on dropping everything right this minute to make that template. Your also assuming Diabolus ex Machina will hit us the second we try. I'm not worried about Endbringers atm as they cant read our minds. We have no reason to believe the nine are in town, and we are working on Echidna (and lets be honest, thats coming to a head at the end of this arc or the beginning of next. Our leaving town with everyone pretty much guaranteed it). We can PICK our time to do that, and theres no reason we shouldn't be able to do it during/after this arc safely depending on how things go.

I actually adressed it.
Also, Slaughterhouse is dead. Except Riley under therapy.
Firstly, our enemies should find out that we have Tinker.
Secondly, they should find his lab.
Thirdly, they should go through security, because there will be security - other Privateers at the very least.
And then Sam'll just teleport in a lab and tear invaders to shreds.
