Due respect i was like you expecting Silvio to be a lot haarder t take down. Also is it possible to equip more Drones to Exceed beyond?

Genuine question then could Ellie go from Power Null to Railgun and kill Socialite Butterfly?
She could use them back to back sure. Better make sure it works though.

Fun fact, Mr. Whaaa? Is why two months ago I gave you Ellie in hopes you would get the E-B online. Having to rely on Silvio to take him out so you could actually fight SB was giving me a headache.
 
Mr. Whaaa?, Miss Conception, iSpy, Chatroom, and Millions Minefield are high up on your list of "Dumb funny superhero names I'm glad I was able to get people to talk about seriously" aren't they

Ya, but Mr. Whaaa? isn't original. He's from my D&D game where he has the same powers, and my ranger was convinced he was behind all of the crimes we had to investigate. Only for him to actually be behind one and no one believed me!
 
So White Hawk is a fascist and Butterfly is completely insane, that's good to know, I suppose.

If we can reliably turn off other people's powers then the winning move is surely for VG to use that and then incapacitate or kill SB. We are unlikely to get a better chance at defeating SB.

That will probably deal with the clones and gets rid of a deeply annoying enemy.

I think Ellie would probably be fine with trying to kill SB, too. Ellie would see that SB is obviously way too powerful and adaptable to hold as a prisoner.

Also, wouldn't they regain their power when the power nullification ends? (ie when we actually need them?) also MW already created clones and they aren't going to pop form this, handyman wouldn't be able to transform but he should still have his durability and enhanced strength, doctor silver already used his power and he would need to recharge anyways before he could do more VG I don't think would be slowed down by it as he isn't using his power.

As a point Dr. Sliver has all of his charges up right now. But the more pressing problem is the bit where the guy with six arms, superstrength, invulnerability and is holding a hostage would lose zero-percent of that to our power null. Which leaves VG and a barely functional Stockpile against Man-O-War, who both has a hostage and is close to our now helpless teammates. maybe we win that Mexican standoff, maybe half of JU dies before we stop SB. That's a hell of a roll of the dice, when there's probably less death or glory options available.
 
[X] Pull an Uirra
-[X] MW tells everyone that SB is inside the house while making her Menagerie to attack Seraph. DS support her by creating Barriers and puts 1 Shield on LL, while also keeping up the barrier on yara so that SB cant touch her.
-[X] Belle Closes in and Tries to Rescue Yara by taking on Man-O War at Close Range and cutting off his hands with her Sword. VG uses Rock to take on Man-War with Belle to Rescue Yara. Then Once Man-O- War is Down Use Power Null to Kill Indemnity and then Seraph. Switch to Scissors after Power Null is over and attack pallisade
-[X] Mona Tells Crusade to fight with them if they want to live against the clones of the Dead. BS and LL attack Uirra in order to stop her getting enough power to just wipe out everyone Mona acting as Shield and transport to close in with LL make sure to keep away from nox. Handyman while armored and with Lance and Shield targets Million Mines and takes him out so that Crusade can use their weapons again.
-[X] Chatelet and Chimera fights Autumne while SK takes on ND clones. Let the darkness out and dont let SB desecrate her Cousins Honor more than this.

Okay we need to rescue Yara to safety and dont let VJ take her from us since with Teleport he can jsut run away after getting yara especially with how damaged her armor is So belle and VG work on that together. DS and MW should be able to distract Seraph atleast and the Menagerie dont have minds for her to attack.

Mona has enough Rep to hopefully convince Crusade to work with us against the clones and then we need to take Down Uirra since she's just gonna get stronger and MM since his powers makes the soldiers useless. LL and Mona should give bonus against Uirra since past teammate and supposed student. While HM is strong enough to handle MM hopefully.

Automne is the most dangerous in teh sky with her so have Chatelet and Chimera fight her which should also give some bonus due to knowing how Automne power works and their relationship while SK can Handle ND clones for a bit.

...would Miss Naught's mark work for other -kinesis types? Like, fireballs or lightning bolts would also curve towards the target?

I'm worried but also confused on if she could make Automne's air more accurate.
 
@Bitterman How exactly does Power-Null work? Is it an active anti-power field or it is more of a pulse that temporarily prevents those hit from using their powers for a bit? .

Edit: Additionally, how long are powers knocked out for?

Come to think of it, has Belle ever tried to use her power on a person? Could she un-densify Man O' War until he's just a very smashable wisp? Since the clones melt like wax, do they even respond to powers like normal people?
 
You guys made assumptions about Faust's defenses too.
Which nearly got Handyman Killed...
Also I dont know if we should use power null or not, Would that knock out Doctor Silvers Barriers? Including the one that is Preventing SB form touching Yara? Which is probably a pseudo bad result in on it self? Im more in the meh category, if we use Paper's RailGun since Pyrokinesis in a small enclosed space with allies and in with a lot of flamable wood is a bad idea, plus 3 of VG's Drones are out. Technically leaving her with only the Energy Blaster as a viable option, so Im willing to use that at least and not have it for the rest of the battle. Just hope VG has Good aim..

This is my final plan. Hopefully it doesn't seem too daunting...

[X] Plan: Truce and Fighting Your Loved Ones
-[X] Doctor Silver should keep a forcefield in reserve to protect Yara from Socialite Butterfly and her clones. In case Handyman's or Chatelet's shields fall off, place a new one on Lady Leizi. In case further shields fall, place shields on the most injured individuals.
-[X] Menagerie Witch should create as many clones as possible to attack Indemnity and Seraph, trying to make Palisade exhaust her shields. Ideally her clones should also make a lot of noise to drown out Socialite Butterfly's commands. If Yara is retrieved, surround her with clones.
-[X] Valiant Gold should fight the Man O' War clone in Module Scissors, trying to get him to drop Yara, either by cutting off his arms with psychic blades or using Telekinesis to pry his hand open. If necessary, switch to Module Rock to overpower him. Switch to Paper to blast all clones if they try to gain distance or if Yara is safely retrieved.
-[X] Belle Sabreuse should also engage the Man O' War clone alongside VG, focusing on trying to retrieve and protect Yara. She should try to use her power to destroy the floor beneath him so he loses his footing and is easier to deal with.
-[X] Yara should do her best to save herself, struggling as much as she can.
-[X] Lady Leizi must focus on taking out Uiara immediately or her power will ramp up tremendously. Focus on her weaknesses, which LL has known for over ten years. LL must remind herself that the real Uiara would be more dangerous.
-[X] Handyman should assist LL in defeating Uiara, trying to asphyxiate or blind her. Ideally he should also grow armor to protect them both from other blasters in the area.
-[X] Black Swan's foremost priority is staying away from Nox. Her first action should be yelling 'truce' towards Plasticity, Perspective and Global Justice soldiers, taking advantage of how White Hawk currently can't talk. She should grab Crimson Soprano to bait out attacks to empower herself, before killing her and then attacking more dangerous threats. But before blasting anyone, she should carefully check whether Millions Minefield can absorb and redirect her energy blasts or not. If he can, she should limit herself to physical high-speed attacks.
-[X] Chatelet should immediately tell Sunlight Knight that these are clones and that they can be caught off guard if unconventional tactics are used. While Quetzalcoatl goes to kill the Gentleman James and Miss Naught clones, her and SK should team up to kill the Automne clone, riding together on his mount - her focusing on defense and him on offense.

No Ults used, because I fully expect Socialite Butterfly to end up throwing out big-name powerhouses next: Novalight, Heavenly Astrologian, and Red Huntress. So we should save those up.

Uiara Nega-Quest, Eidolon Edition — Kermie
I just realized that if it wasn't for Leizi's busted ESP, there's a universe where we wouldn't have realized SB was there, since it would have likely been one of our first missions to do this if we were Uiara. Presenting:

Uiara Nega-Quest, Eidolon pt. 1:
Piggie said:
Oh god the corkboard. At least we're one step closer to taking back our money from dear old dad.
Sweetwoman said:
Eh, not really? You'll still need to do Reality Check, though it might be at 1 AP instead of two.
LunarCrystalY said:
…wait, why? More shenanigans from Jair?
Sweetwoman said:
TaurusKiss said:
Well, we should focus on the vote. I'm leaning "They need Yazmin, not Uiara", but I'm not sure how much/if that'll debuff our REPUTATION? But then again, this is just for Yara, so I'm unsure how much it'll pop up.
Hyperbola said:
Didn't Sweetwoman say that the vote was going to affect the quest as a whole? It likely seems like some sort of personality/philosophy thing.
DoctorC said:
Eh, "Uiara is who they want" seems like the better option? That was we can leverage our PR in order to justify offing Crusade.
Piggie said:
…did you miss the whole "this is why we don't kill" spiel from Yazmin?!

Uiara Nega-Quest, Eidolon pt. 2
Piggie said:
Ok, we might have to kill, if only for Harper. Shit, looks like Wolong and Harper were right. Socialite Butterfly clones?!
LunarCrystalY said:
oh, so that's why Sweetwoman said that this was going to be Faustian 2. Is there any way that we could have known about SB ahead of time?
Sweetwoman said:
Only if you had taken this mission later and/or had really good rolls on that scouting action that you didn't choose to take.
KingSuzaku said:
I suddenly feel like it's a lot more over. Do we at least have any other info on Socialite Butterfly?
Sweetwoman said:
all Uiara knows is what she was monologuing about in the second half of the update.
Semet6601 said:
I'm honestly just curious as to why there aren't more Justice Unlimited clones. And how good are Yazmin's chances of winning against herself but dumber?
TaurusKiss said:
I wish we had some more time to at least plan for Socialite Butterfly. I think we all thought that we'd just have to deal with Qsanyin/Crusade soldiers. Also, do you think it's be a good idea to move Yazmin over to the field in order to try and talk to Stockpile?
BodyInABag said:
Well yeah, but there's also a chance that he goes back to yelling about the weirdly convincing letter from Lady Leizi and disses Nora and then disses Yazmin for being her girlfriend.
Piggie said:
Eh, he's just jealous of Yazmin's immaculate charisma and lesbianness. (Don't quote me on that) Also speaking of that, how the heck is our relationship with Nora going to work now? Because it doesn't look like she has a physical body now.
Sweetwoman said:
If you think something as small as that would stop Yazmin and Nora from crushing on each other, you're wrong. Remember, Nora commissioned so much art.

Yup that sounds about right. Man I bet this AU would have us making a lot more ESP heroes than reasonably normal...wait no the amount of BS currently happening would have more than merit it.
Edit: Also I need to finish what Im doing. Be back soonish.
 
[X] Plan: Truce and Fighting Your Loved Ones
I suck at tactics. So Ill put my vote here for now.
 
...you know, is there any particular reason she couldn't have had a bunch of Algernon type clones repeatedly burn themselves out so she could have some super tech up her sleeve?
 
If power null doesn't actually null all of the powers (like whatever bullshit makes man o war not fall apart and whatever defences SB has) then nulling and killing SB is slightly less attractive.

I don't think we can negotiate from a starting point of "kill them all", so trying to kill SB is probably still the right move. Will focus their mind on protecting themselves rather than getting Yara. We'd just have to save the power bill for a safer moment.

I mean even we now we need atleast 1 P13 esp hero since I'm not sure what stat Telepathy gives us apart from Ops.

Remember faust had a powerbul barrier equipement. SB shoudl have one too seeing as shes a member of Hnad thats mind controlled like sun and fish.

I imagine she has a shield generator on her at minimum like Faust did. Though, we know shields don't protect against TK since it worked on VJ. It stops the damage from getting thrown around, but it doesn't stop you from getting thrown by TK.
