USEC, I wish to enlist your help in making Sawyer a lot stronger. At least, strong enough to stand up against enemy threats better. She should be a tank, while dealing good amounts of damage.

Alright... I guess I can help out a bit. It's going to be a bit hard to combine tanking with good damage dealing though. You have to distribute points among a bunch of different stats, as opposed to glass cannon who are much more focused.

Any ideas about how you want to go about this? By the sounds of it, you'll want to give her a gimmick that makes her good against a subset of enemies and okay against others. So she'll be a bit of a specialist, but still tanky enough to be useful outside of her comfort zone.

-snip-

It's a big fist being propelled by rockets... I don't think that really counts as a proper ranged attack.

Also we were talking earlier about making ranged attacks work differently from melee ones, so I'm mostly just covering my bases here. Just in case.

*loses shit*

Nah mate, good defensive tanks are basically immobile blocks of health.

Eh... I'm sure that there's different ways to go about making a tank. Plus they also have to draw aggro be threatening enough to be targetted by their opponents. Or have some way of protecting their allies. In other words, all of that health won't help if the enemy will just ignore them.

Blink tanks, regen tanks, armor tanks, and Mighty Glaciers all disagree with you there.

Also, a fist propelled by rockets is just a kinetic rocket that happens to be rather shite at penetrating armor. Still ranged. :P

man, immedialy getting the breakfast shift right after a week of vacation (and a week of late shift afterwards) essentialy made work at the  exact time I would usualy sleep, so instead of 8 hours of restful recuperation, I got 8 hours of work.

there is no image in the world that describes how tired I am.

Yet I must remain awake, to reset my rythm to a proper sleeping time.

The struggle is real.

Day 6... we've been running out of food and water, and RoleP has still not posted our turn... I'm not sure if we'll make it.. the others are losing hope too.

You know what bro?

It's Christmas.

That means family times and busy times.

And also reindeer.

And that stag will turn into a reindeer if I have to update today.

I have no idea what Akroma means by 'the factory is disappearing. In fact, I have no idea what is going on at all since it's a giant cluster fuck.

lolgrammoth is teleporting the entire place to space, out of reach from prying eyes, and out of air for the players to breath

it helps them, because the place has been compromised, this removes the evidence, prevents destruction, and also kills you

If half the players don't have ways to breathe in space like Batman, I'm a reindeer.

Also, Christmas was amazing this year.

Spoiler: Like for reals, yo (click to show/hide)

I'm not sure how to make the image smaller...

I got a WiiU but make up is pretty cool as well.
Also, Kyle would make the plan go wrong. Because he's an air mage.
