Trying to come up with techniques is tougher than I thought, I can only think of so many ways to hit things really hard...

If you want to spitball ideas, you know where I am.

Updated the combat rubrics guide on page 1 as some of that was waaay out of date.

Remind me - the RAC calculation is rounded to the nearest number, right?

Rounded down to the nearest whole number. 2.9 RAC only counts as 2 useable RAC points. Same for Stack as it happens as well.

[Beadle]

Bugger. My RAC will suck donkey balls then.

Another question. Can you stack (lower-case ‘s’) combining techniques? e.g. If you had 2/1/0 in a particular affinity, could you combine the two Mundane slots into a Honed slot, then combine that with the other Honed slot to have a single Epic slot?

[Beadle]

Totally not doing this at work, BTW.

As outlined in Patch 1.2:

You can also combine Technique slots within the same affinity to unlock higher levels at a ratio of 2:1.

Example: 2 Mundane Spirit Technique slots can be combined into 1 Honed Spirit Technique, 2 Honed Spirit Techniques slots can be combined into 1 Epic Spirit Technique Slots.

Mundane slots can also be moved across Affinities if you wish. Honed and Epic slots cannot move and you cannot break them down to take them across as Mundane slots.

Emphasis to also remind that Mundane Slots can go anywhere you want them.

I need to get this into the Technique Guide more clearly.

Oh, I knew that. It was just the question of whether you could only combine them once or if you could combine Mundane twice to get it to Epic. I guess you can though, so all good.

If you want to be a total flash-bang.

Noted that this is already covered in the profile skeleton so no editing will be done there.

Feels likely that when/if Jane levels her next two traits will involve pumping into Mind affinity stuff, so she won’t be quite as specialized after all. Well, it’ll be character progression I suppose

One of the reasons I cheated. RAC seems to be important*.

Hopefully we get enough bonuses when we level up that I can continue to exploit that - my fiddling with RAC only helps over the long run (or keeps me competitive that way if I put less into BRA and SPD than other people).

Totally not doing this at work, BTW.

*shocked expression* I would never assume this!

* This is possibly an understatement.

Heck, yes!

Sometimes it's better to cover over vulnerabilities or get a couple of branching offs for specific strategic reasons than to stay overspecialized. ^_^

While I understand wanting to keep to concept, there are choices in there that would allow you to....

1. Set people up for getting hit hard;
2. Keep yourself on your feet to continue to hit hard.

I mean, these are also important considerations for those who want to hit hard. Can't hit hard if can't connect, can't hit hard if KO'ed.
