Magnhild? You mean RWBY Magnhild? Or something else?
Becuse if we're talking RWBY weapons, we could do so much better. We need HARBINGER.

Wait, she has actual claws? I thought the name of her attack was Shredding Claw, and she attacked with her fists in human mode.

I admit that it looks awesome and would be good at short and mid-range with the instamastery, but it runs out into the same problem as Magnhild: it's scythe form can't be used ourtside of wide open spaces without a lot of colletaral.

I don't really want to mess with Bakuda's tech until Exotic Physics is unlocked. There are only 5 and once they're gone that's it. I wanna hold off on studying them until we can get the most mileage out of them.
Problem is that I don't know what to have Tim build. SW has said before that there's a lot that Tim can do but I don't know what that actually means. Nor do I have a clue of what Taylor needs or wants.

We definitely need to lead with this when explaining where the tech came from to turn Simurgh into Cassiel.**
Nope, she has actual claws in both war form and human(ish). This has been described enough times that I'm pretty confident they aren't present only when she's using that attack, though that ability extends them significantly from what I interpret as being more of a hybrid between claw and fingernail.
As for what to build:
1 slot: Push teleport pad: We have a pull, we need the push if we want to be able to send stuff out.
1 slot: armory, enabling a level of automation to the process of pushing and pulling pads
1 slot: teleport beacon for Vista.
We already have one part of the teleport system, but if we finish it with the first two projects, we can have a wide array of non-tinker items available with only a couple of seconds to let the armory find the right item and send it to the pad. Adding the beacon for Vista means she never has to be without access to her combat arm, costume, and whatever other supplies she might be able to supplement her loadout. I don't like the one non-mage we've invested so much time and energy into being so vulnerable so much of the time, and the first two projects here can help all of us, since our devices let us serve as end points for the system, at least, as I'm interpreting it.*
* @Silently Watches Am I getting that right?
edit: **I have so much more of a sense of Maclibuin that I may rewrite portions of my omake. I know that my strengths lie far more in lectures than dialogue, but I still try. The next vote for what to do seemed(and still seems, for that matter) close enough that I wanted to get people thinking, but that doesn't mean I'm happy posting something I didn't finish.***
***On the other hand, this is why I post almost nothing I write. There are always improvements asking to be made.

Yes, he could. Not only would he have a larger core in short order, he would have access to more healing spells and power than he can get from his boost device. He wasn't somebody we had a close enough association with to offer a template, though, and there is no upgrading from device to template in this quest. It's a shame, but he also serves as a great example to the Protectorate of what we can offer far more freely than we can offer templates.
Its a pity that we can't upgrade him to a template mage. He really seems to like healing, and AFAIK Infinite Enhancement has better healing spells.
But eh, hopefully with practice he can get better at applying the spell he has to better effect. Since in Nanohaverse experience really is a huge modifier to your ability to apply magic effectively.
Edit: Also, Wyrd, cut down on your double posting btw.

That's when you use the sword form instead.
She has claws in war form and nails in human form
Well, there is an Informational threadmark for some ideas of what Tim can do. All of those are GM approved. What Taylor needs? Depends on what sort of stuff you want her to do.
Maybe, maybe not. Infinite Enhancement does NOT come with a healing spell already unlocked.
You are.
If Maclibuin goes full on Rogue and gets arrangements with hospitals to sell healing at a low fee (with exceptions to say, emergency healing for children or edge cases at Maclibuin's discretion) he could make a fair bit even if he puts his fee at a very low if reasonable rate, hell, depending on how laws are set he could make a business and have free healings be a charity tax break given that he has a finite amount of times he can use his healing a day.
Hell. Having Maclibuin and more healers like him would make introducing magic have much better Public Relations ability than we would otherwise have because healers are a much better image compared to Calamity Witch's firepower.

I thought there had been more posts before I hit post, only to find the "there are new posts" tag was stale. I considered ripping out the guts of the second post and shoving them into the first post a la Bonesaw, but was unsure how that would play out for you seeing my response, under the presumption that you were present to get the notice that you'd been quoted.
I am wordy to the extreme, to the point I'd spend more time describing furniture than Robert Jordan, but I strive to be as polite as I can at most times. I'll try to minimize future infractions.
He wouldn't necessarily have had the ability to heal on this particular night, but neither would he be benefiting from an enhanced core, since it takes time to grow, so I'm not interpreting the original question to have been "could he have done more healing tonight," instead seeing it as a larger scale matter. Rereading his comment, I do see that it could be interpreted as an immediate impact supposition rather than an overall estimation of relative potential.
And these healers are not only trainable with a gift that is relatively widely spread, if rare, but they would be healers who had no conflict shard interfering with their ability to focus on healing people.

If Sam is to have a weapon, she should have a scythe, like us. Let's make it a brand, people. Maybe later on we can give Dragon and Cassie tiny scythes as well. With that in mind:
1 slot: push teleport pad. Let's finish the system.
1 slot: Sam's scythe thingy.
1 slot: interning with the TSAB.

Isn't the point of messing with her tech to gain Inspiration Points so that we CAN unlock Exotic Physics? Its why I want to mostly copy the vote (Not sure I like that weapon mix, spear with a rifle setup in haft SEEMS entirely reasonable for this tech but oddly hard to find pictures of. Just swords or the rare Bow from FF13) .
Edit: He has 5 tech points already, doing two projects should give him enough to buy it anyways right? So between that and inspiration, messing with bombs for Exotic Physics seems feasible.

Rifle mixed with spear looks fine. Here's Pyrrha from RWBY with a Sword/Spear/Rifle mix.
Why are we only talking about scanning Protectorate members? Wouldn't it be smarter to scan PRT troopers? Then there is no dilemma on whether to keep their powers or not by giving them a device or teaching them a few cantrips so they can remain parahuamns. The only choice is use a template slot or give them a normal device (with a strong bias for the latter if it isn't somebody we expect to recruit for our own team).

I think having Tim figure out a way to make a template device that doesn't use a person as a power source. That was not fun, but template devices are very powerful. We need a healer/support template Lacy FTW.
Edit for clarification, the process of making Tim's template device used Taylor as a power source. Make it so it isn't necessary to use Taylor as a power source while generating a new template device.

I don't follow. What does wearing white have to do with panacea's situation?
Dunno, Panacea's issue was mostly that she was using healing as part of a coping mechanism. Her problem had very little to do with healing and everything to do with family

I would've thought that the problem was that scythes, despite what anime says, are actually terrible weapons.

War Scythes are fine, but normally they don't really look like agricultural scythes. They're closer to a vertical blade on a stick than to the classical shape.

Yes, exactly. It's why I can't watch RWBY. Every time the scythe shows up, I just want to slap Ruby.

Sam's weapon:
- I yet again recommend multi-tailed whip or at least something like a trident, so Sam could apply several charges of Shredding Claw at a time.
- A grenade-launcher is a good long-range option. Sam doesn't have intrinsic shooting skills, so something that doesn't need much aimimg is good. Clockblocker grenades are perfect for her, actually. They give plenty of time to safely close distance.
Bakuda bombs:
- I don't understand how Crawler bombs even supposed to work. Do they transform anybody unlucky enough to be nearby into mini-Crawlers?
- Clockblocker bomb is the most useful, I think, if Tim is capable to adjust time-freeze duration.
Teleportation:
- First thing we need to do is equip our friends (Vista, Adepts) with emergency teleportation beacons, so they could teleport to safety if needed.
- Not sure how Push transporter pad will work. Will it be capable to teleport people wherever if coordinates are known? Or do we need to build something to mark places availavble for teleportation? If the latter is correct I don't think we need it.

Hm. A thought occurred to me: the PRT is bound to look into the new healer in town (there's never enough healers) and Legend will likely notice the spell circles when or if he sees the surveillance videos that any hospital would have and then link the new healer to Calamity Witch.
